ZXDS v0.9.0 (Beta 2) (Spectrum emu for NDS)

ZXDS is an emulator of Sinclair ZX Spectrum for Nintendo DS, written by Patrik Rak. It is steadily reaching a mature stage of development, and it already has some noteworthy features, like accurate emulation of Spectrum 48k, 128k and Pentagon models (including sound), or support for TAP/TZX/PZX tape files, TRD/SCL disk files and RZX playback files.

Changes:

ZXDS 0.9.0 beta 2 (20.3.2009)

* Added proper initial FIFO sync which shall make WiFi init work on all cards.
* Reenabled automatic loading of .cfg and .pok files which was accidentally disabled before.
+ Added early boot message so people can see something is going on if boot takes a bit longer.
– The r4tf.dldi driver is not patched in, as these cards now support autopatching. Also note that for the same reason and to avoid excess garbage the latest libfat library doesn’t include any builtin DLDI drivers anymore, so if you have some older card, you may need to DLDI patch ZXDS yourself even if you hadn’t to do that before.

Ace Attorney DS (NDS misc)

This application is a “Visual Novel Engine”. It is used to create and manipulate scenes to form a script in which the player can delve into.

Ace Attorney DS reads from .ini files which fill in variables needed for the case to run. This engine, or in other words “Casemaker”, comes with 113 profile sprites, 280 evidence sprites, 99 maps and 941 animations (pre-scripted for you, from Phoenix Wright : Ace Attorney and Phoenix Wright : Justice For All). Using these resources and the knowledge of the .ini functions, you can basically re-create a Phoenix Wright game, with your own custom plot, characters, evidence/profiles, maps/collision maps, and music. Don’t feel limited to only being able to make Phoenix Wright games, this is a visual novel engine with unlimited possibilities if you have ideas. A fanfiction can be played out, for instance, through this application with the necessary sprites and script. Simply put, Ace Attorney DS is a game-maker.
