DSKiosk is a homebrew organizer/launcher. It serves as a manager that allows users to run homebrews in a more elegant manner, and with much convenience.
It is in English and French.
Installation
DsKiosk executable is available in two versions:
- Dskiosk.nds for most linkers.
- Dskiosk-r4.nds for R4 cards and derived.
Download and extract file.
DLDI patch .nds file according to the card and copy it to the root directory of the card.
User guide
Slots tab the main tab where you can manage registered homebrews:
Add - Add a new program to the list. A new panel will show up, allowing you to select an NDS file, its picture (PNG 16bits, 64x48) and also the target work space (current work space will be selected by default).
Modifiy - Modify an entry. Change the path of the NDS, its picture or even switch it to another work space.
Remove - Removes an entry from the list. Be aware that nor the picture, nor the NDS file will be deleted from SD card. You'll still have to do the cleaning yourself.
You will find the following options availble from the Options tab:
Language - Switch between the different languages available (default English).
Background - Choose between the default background and the one you defined yourself with (PNG 256x384).
Custom picture
DsKiosk can automatically detect if a picture is available for the NDS just chose, if it matches any of these conditions:
- If homebrew's file name is myHomebrew.nds, the picture's file name should be myHomebrew.png.
- The picture's file name is _title.png (there can be only one file of this kind in each directory).
If you don't provide any picture, DsKiosk will try to display the default homebrew icon: but it will be less eye-appealing (32x32, 16 colors).
