What's new?

• You asked, we listened, and now the wait is over, and the day has finally come!
  After years of playing DS⁽ⁱ⁾-Enhanced games in DS mode, whether it be on a flashcard or the console's SD card, DS⁽ⁱ⁾ mode has finally been added (with some help from @shutterbug2000)!
  • With DS⁽ⁱ⁾ mode, you can play DS⁽ⁱ⁾-Enhanced games with features only usable on DS⁽ⁱ⁾ or 3DS consoles, such as faster speed, camera, and/or using WPA1/2 networks to connect to the internet.
  • As a result, you can play all 5 of the physical DS⁽ⁱ⁾-Exclusive games as ROMs, which are
    • System Flaw
    • Foto Showdown
    • Picture Perfect Hair Salon
    • and the rest (which are exclusive to Europe)
  • Also as a result, you can play some DS⁽ⁱ⁾Ware titles, such as
    • Earthworm Jim
    • Shantae: Risky's Revenge
    • The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords: Anniversary Edition
    • X-Scape
    • and more!
  • NOTE: Due to most of the memory being used by the game, the in-game menu is disabled, and attempting to open it will cause the game to close.
• Game region can be set for DS⁽ⁱ⁾-Exclusive and DS⁽ⁱ⁾Ware titles.
  • NOTE: Not all games are multi-regional, so the feature won't work for some of them.

Bug fixes

• The missing sprite bug in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem is fixed by turning on DS⁽ⁱ⁾ mode.
• WarioWare: DIY now saves properly.
• Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory now saves data.
• Fixed sound in Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia, if using either DSiWareHax or forced DS⁽ⁱ⁾ mode.
• Fixed Trauma Center: Under the Knife not booting.
• Fixed DMA reads to VRAM not working.
• Fixed a bug causing potential crashes with ROMs loaded into the full extra RAM.
• Minor code optimizations have been applied.

Known bugs

• DS⁽ⁱ⁾Ware saving currently doesn't work, so some games may not start as a result.
• When restarting Face Training, after successfully saving, it'll show that the save is corrupted.
• In Hidden Photo, while a puzzle loads, it'll crash after some seconds.
