No idea how 2. will work, but do you meam downloading to SDCard? 3 is viable. Just download it to temp app data/cache. Drastic DS can open .nds files with am Android Intent (hence why tapping .nds file on ES file explorer opens it in drastic)ericbazinga wrote:I came up with an idea for how the app would work that I think you'll like.
Whenever you download a game via the app, you could have the choice of-
1. Sending it to your Google Drive/Dropbox/inbox/etc.
2. Transferring it via WiFi (using a download client) directly to your R4 card.
3. Playing it right there on-the-spot using DraStic.

Re: DraStic Store?
No I don't mean downloading to the SD card (although that could be another download option), I meant sending the file via WiFi from the app to a download client running on the R4 card. Now, for the download client, we can either make our own, or I have some options-kaikun97 wrote:No idea how 2. will work, but do you mean downloading to SDCard?ericbazinga wrote:I came up with an idea for how the app would work that I think you'll like.

Re: DraStic Store?
Well, it took a whole week, but I FINALLY finished building the database for the store. The amount of homebrew in the database is astounding, to the point that we'll probably NEVER have to add to the list ever. By comparison, the lists for skins and shaders COMBINED is paltry.
for the homebrew list, I basically downloaded every game in GameBrew's database (minus those that ended in 404 pages when I tried to download them), separated by category. I'm glad I got this done, because I was not looking forward to doing it.

Re: DraStic Store?
Cool. GameBrew has individual pages for all the homebrew games, and most include screenshots, a summary, and occasionally a YouTube video.kaikun97 wrote:I'll be hunting for and/or getting screenshots for all the homebrew tooericbazinga wrote:Well, it took a whole week, but I FINALLY finished building the database for the store.

If you download the 'DraStic Store' folder I shared with you from your Google Drive, the downloaded folder will be zipped.kaikun97 wrote:my web server is up and running at kai.byteturtle.eu (ignore the placeholder homepage).

The folder contains homebrew (seperated by genre), skins, and shaders.

Re: DraStic Store?
I was looking around the webserver, and apparently the site is called "Kawaii Town" and is a section of a larger site called "Nerdistan".kaikun97 wrote:my web server is up and running at kai.byteturtle.eu
Kawaii Town doesn't really sound like a storefront for DS homebrew. Could you change it? I came up with another name for it: "Brewsburg".

Re: DraStic Store?
Kawaii town is my fictional town in my friend's fictional state nerdistan. The downloads etc will be in a completely different part of the site.
