FingerMania DS (Homebrew)

[Geschpooklichkeit]

BlowBomber's Website | Welcome!

A DDR clone written for the Nintendo DS. I wanted to bring this up somewhere but there isn't a thread for homebrew yet. In order to play this you need some method to run homebrew on your DS. According to the site, it's playable but not complete and while it doesn't have a built-in step editor, it does have an external utility for authoring charts that can be imported into the game.

Looks like they decided to stop development.

This program sucks so much.

I hate how DS homebrew is simple drag-and-drop while PSP requires lots of tools and mucking around, and DS homebrew is generations behind PSP homebrew.
I have an AceKard 2 myself, but there's not many interesting things to do with it bar DS games (obviously...) and very (and boy do I mean VERY) few Homebrew games, applications and emulators.

:/ All I know about the DS homebrew scene is that you need a memory NDS card, but after maybe installing a custom firmware (which is extremely easy to do these days anyway), the PSP literally becomes drag-and-drop so...

Some homebrew stuff on PSP will require lots of screwing around, like emulators, also downgrading back to 1.5 to get a new CFW like 5 times a year.

[Karnov]

you dont need to downgrade to go from CFW to CFW, just update it.

its a good thing you weren't with the ds homebrew "scene" before auto dldi patching was available then.

Manual DLDI patching isn't all that hard.
I have an R4 and it's not too hard (though my R4 is backup for when my AK2 craps out on me)

DS-Scene - View Topic: DsDsRevolution v0.4.3

Perhaps this is more suitable for this forum. This is supposedly a port of StepMania to DS.

DsDsRevolution is absolutely terrible - it makes pretty much everything off-sync, you have to use a combination of the d-pad and face buttons to hit anything (this might not make sense...), no mods available and crap interface.

In .ini you can set speed mods and change DS button configuration.

How do you set up speed mods? Might've just been the editor I used but it wasn't obvious when I looked at the file, and the website was no help either. Anything else you can customize like that?

That is the most suggestive title for a game I've ever heard.

There was a Stepmania clone for PSP homebrew BTW
