r4revolutionds.co.uk ran a poll peoples’ favorite DS homebrew, and I’m very happy that both NitroTracker and Pocket Physics scored Top-10 positions! A big thanks to everyone who voted for my stuff!
It’s really worth checking out the top-20 list! There’s some great stuff in there:
TheRain has released the first version of the DSMI library for the iPhone! This library enables iPhone developers to create wireless MIDI controllers like xy-controllers, drum pads or keyboards! The iPhone applications can talk to any MIDI software on your computer through the DSMI server, making your iPhone a full-blown MIDI instrument! libDSMI for iPhone is available from the downloads page.
MIDI Motion Machine
TheRain has also released an exciting new app called MIDI Motion Machine, a tilt-based MIDI controller including 16 note trigger pads. The source code of a reduced free version of this app is available from the DSMI SVN. This should help you get started writing your own iPhone MIDI apps in no time!
You can get the commercial full application and the reduced free version (out soon) form the Apple AppStore. For more information on MIDI Motion Machine, check out the official site.
Because of chishm’s Supercard Lite Firmware Hack, the SuperCard Lite can now launch a .nds file on boot. So, I updated the GBAMP DevLauncher to support DLDI, making it usable on SuperCard Lite and renamed it “DS DevLauncher”. The updated binary, pre-patched with the SuperCard Lite patch is available from the filepile.
Thanks very much to chishm for the SuperCard Lite and GBAMP firmware hacks!
It turns out that sending the MIDI message (0, 0, 0) to some applications causes them to stop working. This, unfortunately, is the keep-alive message that the DS sends to the server every three seconds. So I patched the three servers to not forward this message any more.
Updating, re-packaging and uploading all thee servers takes quite some time, so I hope they are now bug-free :-)
The updated server is available from the DSMIDIWiFi homepage.
parad0x posted this awesome video on YouTube showing off his touchscreen jamming skills! He also explains how to set up DSMIDIWiFi under Linux with FluidSynth. Amazing job!
