I hate to change the topic but,

Do you think You (or even anyone) could ever port GTA 3 to the NDS? or is it just impossible.

Keep up the good work.:thumbup:

While we're off subject, any news on the exram QuakeDS build? I check the home site for updates every day. Will it come out some time in July perhaps?

I'm sorry to say it but I've not done any real programming in the last month or so (bar what I do professionally), as programming 18 hours a day for months on end was really taking its toll on me - hence no Quake updates!

I'm trying to psyche myself into picking up the compiler again...but I'm lacking the motivation!

BTW: Peter, love the avatar!

Ah, thanks for the reply. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

Hey I hate to seem like a pest, but do you think it would be possible to Port the original Half-Life to the NDS. since Half-life uses a modified version of the Quake2 engine.

I hate to sound like a pest but I have been Interested in this work and I think that We The People of the NDS should get a Half-Life Game. This would be awsome.

Sorry about the GTA question It was Dumb.

Keep up the good work.:thumbup:

No, there will not be HL on the DS until Valve release the source code and only then could the system be assessed to see if it's runnable on the DS.
Remember, Valve is still selling HL1 on Steam...

Thanks Simon, I guess We will have to wait and see.

I Really hope they Release it!

( I REALLY hope it Can work on the NDS)

:thumbup: !!Keep up the good work!! :thumbup:

Hey Simon, I was on the Internet the other night and came across this. How to over clock your NDS to 116mhz. It shows you how you can MOD the DS's chipset to allow it to have greater clocked speeds. They talked about it allowing the DS to emulate at higher speeds( I don't know if it is true, but I think it could allow us to port and play high Cpu games. To do this it requiers these things.)

Nintendo DS
GBAccelerator DS overclocking chip
Tri-Wing Screwdriver
Small Phillips screwdriver
30 AWG kynar wire-wrap wire
Low-wattage, fine-tipped soldering iron
Solder wick (desoldering braid)
Fine, rosin-core solder
Wire cutters
Wire stripper
Needle-nose pliers
Double-sided tape
Cup or bowl to contain small parts

The Major thing is the GBAccelerator DS overclocking chip which can be found at http://www.division-6.com/store/gbac...r-ds-pr-8.html for $24.99 (€ 18.69). This chip is suppose to Increase and Decrease the DS CPU speed by pressing a combination of buttons.

All of the original information on how to Mod it can be found at http://www.modd3d.com/articles/item/...ur-nintendo-ds

The web site ABOVE Shows you how to Mod it for the DS Phat. If you want to Mod it for the DS lite the Instructions can be found here
http://www.modd3d.com/articles/item/...ntendo-ds-lite

I Hope this has been some kind of help and I hope this will allow us to improve and Emulate higher Cpu games.

I have not tryed it for myself (yet), but I was woundering if some would like to try it and Give US an update to see if it really does what it says.

P.S. I am not 100% sure that this makes the NDS Cpu more powerful I am just going on what I heard.
