  1. I dont think so, however you could make one that controls your Media Center PC through the DS.

     

    Remember that in order to have the DS connect to anything, you need THAT thing to be able to run some sort of "client" or "server" package. In this case, X360 hasnt been able to get homebrew running, so its a no-no for now...

  2. Does this mean someone can create a graphic-based homebrew web-browser?

     

    That'd be da bomb! :D

    Dont count your chickens before you even have eggs...

     

    There are no HTML parsers yet, for the DS anyways(besides DSLinux), so that means that a browser should come soon, but how soon is soon? I'd say a few more months...

     

    Edit: Well, I'll be damned, I forgot DSOrganize can read HTML and parse it (Text only, no images yet), and thats what it uses for the help files, so a DSBrowser COULD come sooner than I thought...

     

    Then again, there's always Opera DS...

  3. Read the Linux instrucctions thoroughly, and get a copy (its legal btw) of Knoppix or Ubuntu Live, you dont have to install anything, you boot from disc, and if you decide linux aint your thing, you can switch back to Windows effortless.

     

    Then again, itll be pretty annoying to get it right, and then reboot and have to redo the whole thing :naughty:

  4. Here's something I'd like for a future release.

     

    Buttons in the touchscreen, similar to MPH, that way you dont need to press the face buttons of the DS.

     

    This would be handy, of course, for FPS, but could also help other genres if these buttons could be personalized.

     

    I'd also like to be able to personalize the controlls from within DS2key, and not the server app in my computer. Like Win2DS.

     

    I'm currently at school, so I havent tested DS2key v4, and I wont have time to test until Monday or Tuesday, but I'm getting MPH on monday, which means that I wont test it soon...

  5. Well great work, Stephen.  There are still a few problems with it displaying the text.  I have been messing with it for a while now and only got it to display Google's html one time.  But it's nice to see this progressing.  I can think of all sorts of interesting uses for this.

     

    About the keyboard problem, it's weird because I have not seen any homebrew application that can work with the touchscreen as accurately as the official DS games can.  I mean, if I just start tapping the letter "g" on the touchscreen, I get something like this:

     

    "ggghgggghhgggnggggg"

     

    It's a real pain while you're typing.  Nintendo's keyboard doesn't have that problem.

    I really like the keyboard used in DS2Win, the PA_Lib keyboard, it even lights up before releasing the key, so you know which key you are pressing.

     

    However, one of the features I really LOVE about your apps Stephen, is the fact that if I type 3, I can press up or down to make it 2 or 4. If I type B, i can select other letters, which is a real plus.

  6. I tried connecting to google (and it seems I did), however I cant type "HTTP request"...

     

    What am I supposed to do after giving the URL? I pressed CR several times, and when clicking on the Status, I see a whole bunch of Fs (more than I've ever gotten in all exams), then 2 lines with info

     

    Here's what I did

     

    I clicked on Tap to connect, automatically it typed google.com:80, so I pressed Ok, afterwards I have a black screen on top and TCP Conect test at the bottom

     

    If I press CR, nothing happens.

     

    I cant change text where it says google.com, if I press status, I see the Fs and a load of Hex numbers.

     

    Do I remove local echo? Do I enable?

     

    Help, I'm lost :)

     

     

    Edit: Nevermind, I got it!

     

    It really NEEDS backspace though :(

  7. This is pretty nice, but what I'd really LOVE is if you 'fused' wardriving and selecting an access point to connect to.

     

    The reason I'm saying this is because when wardriving, it shows access points and their connection rate, meanwhile, when you select Connect to AP, you only see the names, and not the connection rate.

     

    The problem occurs when several APs are named the same thing (such as in my campus, as I explained in another thread, in gbadev.org forums), so I'd really LOVE to see which one I am connecting to :blink:

  8. Something unfortunate happened on sunday. My harddrive got corrupt and I was force to format. The result is everything i erased, including all my source code.

     

    Good News though, I've started reprogramming DS2Key and all is going smoothly, I'm implementing the GUI on the ds side still, it's going quite well though. This should only be a little speed bump, although I can't promise new features except the GUI on the DS for now.

     

    0.4 will be a DS Side release, everything should be back to normal and better. 0.5 will contain new features, and improved mouse support.

     

    Also, I will be making sure to release source code with every version so this doesn't happen again.

     

    That sucks :(

     

    I'm surprised you didn't keep backups, if I were a coder I think I'd be paranoid.

    I'm a coder as well, so here's a tip: Gmail offers a 2 gig drive. I always save my work there, it also helps because when I'm not at home, I can still access my code.

     

    That sucks tho, I hope everything goes off as you intended, and that this small bump doesnt make you think of quitting :)

     

     

    As for features I'd like to expect (at least at some point, maybe on DS2Key 1.0) is touchpad programmable buttons...

     

    Having certain areas with pre-coded buttons would help a lot with FPSs, along with some sensibility sensor :P

  9. This latest version, I can't use the stylus at all. 

     

    I'm glad to hear (if limited) but mouse control. 

     

    I'd love to test it, but I cant figure out why I cant load the app (It loads fine, I'm using an M3 CF, without any loaders (ndsloader.bin), the app freezes when pressing A to load, but loads fine with Start. v0.2 had the same problem, but i COULD use the touchscreen back then :P )

     

    Where does it freeze exactly? Is it after the top screen displays "Do ConfigureWifi"? If so I believe your the.sav file is either missing, unreachable, or not named similar to your.nds/.ds.gba.

    Well, it freezes when it first loads, if I press A.

     

    Meanwhile, If I press Start to load, it does load the whole thing, I can move around with arrows and press A and B, however ALL touchscreen capability is completely disabled.

     

    I'm not talking about certain areas being hard to hit, im talking about trying every single spot, and not being able to respond. However, moving the Dpad or pressing A or B does make teh app respond.

     

    The.sav file was stored at both the root folder and the ndssave folder.

  10. BTW, I've been toying around the profiles and stuff, even though I cant get this thing to work and I must admit I am impressed!

     

    The profiles idea is great.

     

    And even if I cant configure the settings at all, the option to store settings is very nice as well.

  11. This latest version, I can't use the stylus at all.

     

    I'm glad to hear (if limited) but mouse control.

     

    I'd love to test it, but I cant figure out why I cant load the app (It loads fine, I'm using an M3 CF, without any loaders (ndsloader.bin), the app freezes when pressing A to load, but loads fine with Start. v0.2 had the same problem, but i COULD use the touchscreen back then :unsure: )
