DS Doom Released

[Jesster]

Cant get this to work on my SD Lite card, have put all the files in the root dir, and renamed the wad file, put still doesnt work, just get the message 'Survived graphics init'. Any suggestions?

I assume you mean Supercard Lite. Did you patch it with the moonshell patcher?

I have one .nds for each .wad, just edit with an hexadecimal editor and change the second doom.wad by name of other, just one rule : the filename must have four letter like doom.wad ^^

That's one solution. Personally, I just use DSOrganize to rename the WAD files to use whichever one I want. I have:

Doom_Demo.WAD
Doom2.WAD
Doom_MM.WAD
Doom_MM2.WAD
Doom_Icarus.WAD

With the latest build of DSOrganize, renaming these files is very quick and easy (though not quite as quick as having multiple hex-edited dsdoom.nds files I suppose).

Simple. Open up the DSDOOM.NDS in any hex editor and find the DOOM.WAD string as shown in the attached photo. Edit that to something like ULTI.WAD and rename the WAD file itself to ULTI.WAD and then "SAVE AS" the newly-edited DSDOOM.NDS file to something else like ULTI_DOOM.NDS and copy over to flashcart and run.
Make sure the renamed WAD files are in the root of the flashcard. Then when you want to run any other WAD, just select the file you hex-edited to auto-run that particular WAD.
I do wish they would hurry up with a WAD selector though...604k for each .NDS file is kind of a waste.
Don't ask me what hex editor I used, I'm on Mac OS X and used 0xED.

Thanks a bunch for that help, its alot easier then I thought!, I downloaded a hex editor thats pretty good, i can access it through the properties bar and edit it in there, then save it , when searching "doom.wad" the first one I come across has "doom.wad doom1.wad doom2.wad" and some other stuff, then afterwards I find the same "doom.wad" as in your screen, so I take it i just edit the last one and leave the first one, the first one was much earlier and not 78D98.

If I have to change both please lmk.


Thanks again for taking a screen and everything , and thanks jess for the suggestion.

It comes in a zip file with the latest firmware and rom patcher on the supercard site: http://www.supercard.cn


Just run the moonshell patcher program, browse to select your dsdoom.nds file, and click OK.

Has anyone been able to run DS Doom on a version 3 of the mini sd m3? I can't get mine to work at all!

[Bluemercury]

Has anyone been able to get this to work on an m3 with mini sd? My friend and I both can't get ours to work. All we get is "survived graphics init." Then nothing happens.

i have the m3 mini sd and its the same for me too.

[Geometris]

I'm guessing it's from the fatlib on the card itself, but I don't know if there is a way to change that.

[Arimasen]

I also have a M3 with a MiniSD card, and I also get the "Survived graphics init." message, and nothing else. Can there be a fix for this please?

[Geometris]

I think the issue is the bad homebrew support on the m3 itself. The best/only thing we can do right now is to sign that petition in hopes of the company giving out better documentation to developers on how their card works.

I think I just peed a little...
