hi, nice to meet everyone here! I'm new here but I noticed there is a distinct lack of tutorials on how to make a FAT32 SD card .img for melonDS here. The step below has been tested to work on both Linux and Windows (and macOS if you are particularly brave).

Steps:

0. for context we will be using the Virtual SD Card Maker from Dolphin (or the Android development SDK if you wanna be specific) and the command line, so download the program at https://www.mediafire.com/file/cfr9q8542e9lsos/Virtual_SD_Card_Maker.zip/file
1. extract it, and launch a command line in the extracted directory (for Linux users that would be your terminal; for Windows users, either PowerShell or the command prompt will do)
2. there should be a Windows folder and a Linux folder, so navigate to the OS you use.
3. on Windows, use "./mksdcard.exe -l label size (for MB use xM) name.img" (for example)

./mksdcard.exe -l melonDSi 4096M sd.img

3.5. on Linux, use "./mksdcard -l label size (for MB use xM) name.img" (for example)

./mksdcard -l melonDSi 4096M sd.img

4. give it a second to create the file and boom! you have yourself a functioning SD card image you can mount with 3rd party software (I use the imDisk virtual disk driver program) and dd!

if you have any questions, I would be glad to answer. happy emulating everyone

- pee.

hello everyone! I'm koreanturtleship (not korean lmao), and i am a student with a huge interest in computers and retro stuff. I found out about melonDS from the emulation tech wiki and decided to take it for a spin and found that I liked it more than DeSmuME. I like to play pokemon games and really hope to see useful wifi emulation soon. (also did you know you can use your phone as a virtual ethernet device when tethering it? that means ppl stuck on wifi only can finally connect melonDS to alternate DNSes!) - pee.

you *can* try trading online with people outside your local area network, but the technical logistics of it of which I'm not familiar with is extremely complicated. however, you can try trading in between 2 melonDSes on the same computer, but that is still a daunting task which may corrupt things.

edit: nevermind, you can trade with both local boxes checked, but you have to find someone to trade with via friend code - pee.
