Is it possible for someone to create a custom boot menu (looking similar to the NDS firmware start) that looks prettyer than the one that is already there?

Do you think that the supercard team will ever do this?
Or will they do it with homebrew?

Romman says that the extra coding wont fit into the SC firmware. It would be cool if they had the SC scan the CF or SD card for a menu "addon" or something.

People have been wanting an auto-boot option for some time now (similar to GBAMP's _BOOT_MP.nds) so maybe something will get added soon.

do you think someone here might make something like that? Or would we leave it up to the supercard team?

I obvoisly can't make anything (not even a "hello world")


This would be a good project for a talented Developer!
Three cheers for whoever is up to the job!

well the steps to do this are easy and wont take much of the supercards flash mem at all even less than the real firmware even

thats if we have the menu as files on the sc card and then lod them into the ram

so supercard would boot -> check menu.xml -> load graphics into ds ram

DAD DA

infact a xml isnt even needed its easier to just do

BG coolBG.bmp
button cOOlbutton.bmp

the only thing now is to find out how the formware works
create a custom rom
inject new rom in firmware

so... you know how to do this?

if so... aweseom!
Will you take on this task?

Ohhhhhh  this would be very nice.. i really don't like looking at that supercard logo everytime!  I tried old school methods of finding that logo in the firmware upgrades, but had no luck...it's probably embedded anyways.  It sure would be great to be able to change it!

Him but near to a similar achievement it has been this

The inconvenience is that I have not been able to progress since with this project although it is a lot but of what hoped to achieve I still sit down that it is not enough..  
On the logo of below I ALREADY FOUND IT!! the problem is that with none of the tile layers that I possess I can see it correctly (therefore all my arrangements are useless) although well I can erase it and to leave the screen of below empty (although so that the best hole is not seen the accent like this)

Have you tried asking romman directly as to how the background is stored?

the DSorganizer homebrew is awesome , supercard menu should look something similar to DSorg.

lets all hope.

could someone make something like DSorganizer that could launch from sd and could launch games ? and maybe it could autorun from the moment we poweron the ds

personally i think the moonshell team should be working on supporting the .dsq file that the supercard program lets out that way if the supercard team ever does make the supercard have autoboot then moonshell does everything from then out

[marksken]

That would be cool
to bad i can't program ;-)

I think if romman can wright the firmware for the sc, then he can make it boot a nds file inplace of the ugly bad looking firmware. and Im pretty sure he has the power and know-how to wright a dsq plug-in for moonshell. maybe he'll hear our plee? honestly, if my supercard booted right to moonshell and could still run my roms, I woulden't feel any need for a g6. :roll: come on!

maybe we could make a poll so people could vote for something like this
and the we could try to present it to Romman  :oops:
