The goal of this project is to create a port of NetHack for the DS utilizing the unique features of the DS to create an easy-to-use NetHacking experience.

Release notes from Abcd1234:

Bah, left some debugging code in the previous release by accident, which prevented NHDS from powering off after a save. This is fixed.

* GP2X specific readme-gp2x.txt providing instructions and setup.

NightFox released an update to “Spirits DS”, an old game inspirited by Topo Soft.

Release notes:

Hi, finaly and afer work a lot to get a nice function to load bg’s from FAT, i just make a version of Spirits compatible with slot1 linkers. Now it works with any linker compatible with DLDI. I used also Tom’s compilation of PA_LIB to use Noda’s ASLib for sound, soo now soundtrack is in mp3 quality. (WIP: Still working on voices). Savegame now is writen to a file on spirits folder, soo i don’t use anymore SRAM of DS. To play, just put “spirits” folder on the root of your linker and patch the right rom with DLDI. That’s all.

Thanks to sludge99 for his help making my LoadFatBg() function. I will send a hug also to ANT512 and sumiguchi for his help and comments when i was creating this function, without this, i’ll cant make Spirits works on slots1 devices.

Hope you enjoy it

Best regards

Fox

Mon Avatar is coded in LUA and is an Avatar Creation system for the PSP. The Avatar you create could be used in PSP Games, that are maybe both online and offline. You could use them on your computer for your MSN or AIM (if AIM has DP’s). Also, there will be games so that you can earn points and compare them with a friends and share each other’s record table.
