NDS Backup Tool FTPd turns your DS into an FTP server. It is a new variation of NDS Backup Tool series from Rudolph. This version is similar to the Wi-Fi backup tool, however FTPd turns the DS into an FTP server. Users can then connect to DS via their favourite FTP client and transfer ROM image and Save directly from the DS card to any location on your PC. V0.11 is more stable than the initial release and also a little bit faster.

Installation

Note: It is possible that problems such as corruption of SAVE data in the NDS ROM may occur. Please use at your own risk.

A wireless access point supported with wifi is needed. You can adjust setting of WFC (the connection with Wifi-AP) in advance using Wifi corresponding software like Mario Kart DS.

Download and extract file.

DLDI patch .nds file and open .ini file with any text editor to set a username password and port.

Copy both .nds and .ini files to the root directory of the card.
