hi,
can anyone help me turn my Ds into an ebook, please.

im not a whizz on computers so need someone to explain it to me really basically,

i'd be really grateful guys for any help!

Thank you

Amy

 

First, we need to know what you have. Do you have any hardware, like a flash cart? If not, get yourself something called a "Slot-1 Device". Popular brands are R4DS, CycloDS, Acekard 2, and Supercard. You can find them in online stores. From there, all you need to do is get a text reader program on the device and then load your text files on. (I'd post links, but it differs for each device)

 

I don't get your question.

 

sorry, i should have said, i do have a R4 revolution 3... although im not sure i want one now after that comment :-\

 

What do you need help with exactly?

 

Right, if so, use Moonshell for .txt files. R4 built in text reader muddles up the text files, which makes them look horrible. They are called ebooks (text Notepad files). .pdfs aren't able to read yet though.

 

thanks for the replies, like i said im not great on computers so.... do i copy and paste moonshell onto my chip?? or just have it on my pc? and should i just google ebooks or are there any good sites to go on??
thanks guys, i'll get there in the end!
And help very much appriciated!

Elspudo: Am I to assume you have the eBook in standard eBook format? I'm not entirely sure how it works, but you could try DSReader (http://gbax.gp2x.de/gbax2007.html), although I hear you absolutely must have a "root:\DSReader\" directory placed on your card before you use it or it will corrupt.

Another idea is to use ReadMore (http://forum.gbadev.org/viewtopic.php?t=12810), which would require you to convert your ebooks into .txt files. It would be similar to using MoonShell to read it, with the exception of the text appear in book format (page one on the top screen, page two on the bottom screen, rotated kinda' like Brain Age).

...and that's as far as I'm Googling.

 

Moonshell comes with R4 firmware.

 

ok...i've put everything onto my r4 card..it runs the tutorial ok but wont let me load .txt file...dosent see them??? what have I done wrong?
the old man

 

R4 does have a text reader, but it doesn't wrap them and usually they look horrible. If you still want to, Go hit Select once you are in the Games selection. This will change the folder views, so keep hitting Select until you see your text file. I recommend you use Moonshell to do it.
