im really stupid with stuff like this.

what exactly is it and its uses.

[spinal_cord]

It should boot a homebrew game from one of the cards named in the list.

[gronne]

So you don't need to patch them or use dldi in the PC? When I use the dldi auto-patcher in DSO it rarely works.

[spinal_cord]

Try this...



It works on a lot of cards and dldi patches while loading.

It boots homebrew on any flashcart. You use it your DS Homebrew program.

[Sigma83]

I know just enough about homebrew to appreciate this . Well done and I look forward to seeing some future homebrew incorporate these libraries.

TeenDev - Does this work on the R4?

[TeenDev]

Do birds fly?

Does the R4 work with Chishm's loader?

[spinal_cord]

Not from what I've had feedback-wize on my menu, but then I had to use the gbamp loader on gbamp cos the dldi one doesnt work from my menu on it (although it does in chishms example). So I figured maybe his loader works on R4 but just not im my menu.
