DS-X OS Update Now Available – v1.0.2 + Windows Update Tool
We reported earlier that a new update was coming shortly for the DS-Xtreme DS flashcart, and here it is – v1.0.2! Along with the new update, the DS-X team have also released a beta version of their “Win32 Update Tool”. The Windows update tool allows updating of the DS-X a breeze (no need to constantly download new update files each time a new one is released). The tool will automatically detect the newest update and what your current version is and installs it.
The newest, and first update – 1.0.2 adds improved compatibility and support for Supercard (SC) saves has been added along with other fixes and changes. I was thrilled to see the support for SC saves because I could use the G6 Save Converter to convert my M3 or G6 save files into a Supercard format (.sav) and now I can use that on my DS-X! Here’s a full list of the changes in this new firmware –
- Support for “Direct” format textures in UI engine
- Recognition of id3v2 tags in mp3/ogg
- Now supports supercard save files
- Added a “getOSVersion” function, for use in the skin to report the true OS version.
- Corrected virtual eeprom bank mapping
- Fixed a problem with some MP3s crashing
- MBR and partition parsing now correctly handled, should fix some filesystem issues, especially for OSX users
- Some minor changes to libfat auto-integration, should fix problems with ndsmail, etc
- OS now powers off LCDs when suspended
- Minor optimizations in raw device access
