well, you do kind do mess around w/ memory.  It's just that you don't have to write graphics routines like tilemappers, sprite routines, and the works.  You just send the large hex data to the memory sectors and turn on flags to tell the hardware where, how, and even more how to show the sprite.  

For key input, iirc, there's a special register(special memory) that's always reading the keys, so all you need to read that memory to see what keys are being pressed.

sound is complicated.  I don't know anything about it on DS/GBA.  GBA is generally easier because DS is GBA + extra stuff from what I hear.

You might like it Kevin.

Possibly, you are compiling the program wrong.

DJ_Omnimaga: I did not mean to double post. And I was simply pointing out that maybe that was the problem. It has happened to me many times. A 0 error 0 warning compile doesn't always equal a stable build.

I was going to consider getting into DS dev. I got as far as buying the DS-X only to find that it was part of a faulty production batch. I decided to give up there...  

 where'd you buy it from?


@ DJ_Omnimaga:  they generally add more features to Java w/ every new release.  i duno if it's actually changed that much, but from what everyone tells me it implements object orient programming better than C++

that's probably true.

although i hear it's not hard to learn C++ after Java, or Java after C++, so it's still a good starting place Smileysmile.gif

I'm doing alot of java in college now...it's what there teaching and it is a lot like C/C++.

I have never done any DS programming, I have messed with some psp coding and the tool chain for that is a pain to setup, but I havent had any other problems with that.

Good luck with DS coding, I wouldn't mind branching over or back and forth, but I got a lot of calc projects to wrap up first, perhaps next year I can devote more time.

MadSkillz: Great, contact me when you want to get into NDS development as I have been seriously looking into this lately, and I think I have found a way to get devkitPro to work on my system. I just turn off the antivirus software Tonguetongue.gif

Just wondering, are there any trusted dealers for the hardware?  or is GBAMP the most reliable?
