Installation

It comes with 2 version:​

• Recommended Version (FAT) - Works with more cards, it requires extra files in the SD card (and will crash without them).
• Emulator Version (NitroFS+FAT) - Works on emulators. Will crash on some cards and does not require any extra files in SD card.

In addition there are 2 alternate texture packs:

• Scary Sauce - A refined texture with rich colors and a complex look.
• Minecraft - The familiar look from the renowned game that started it all.

To use the texture pack, put the .tex files into /data/Mine-DS/Textures/ and change it in the settings menu.

FAQ

Q. How to add blocks in the background?

You must hold the crouch key (down) to interact with the background.

Same for destroying background blocks, this is to prevent background blocks from getting accidentally destroyed.

You can use the Texture Compiler and follow the instructions to create your own texture pack.
