GodMode9i is an open source file browser for the Nintendo DS ecosystem, taking inspiration from [[GodMode9 3DS|GodMode9]] for the Nintendo 3DS. GodMode9i has the ability to dump games, manage SD card files, browse NitroFS, calculate the SHA1 hash of files, edit binary files with a hex editor, and more. ==Features== * Dump Game Boy Advance cartridges on the original Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite consoles. * Dump Nintendo DS/DSi cartridges on Nintendo DSi and Nintendo 3DS consoles (if GodMode9i is run on the console SD card). ** They can also be dumped on the original Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite consoles, if running from a Slot-2 flashcard. ** DS/DSi cartridge save data can be dumped on the original Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite consoles using the save data of GBA cartridges. * Restore save files to DS and GBA cartridges. * Copy, move, delete, rename files/folders and create folders. * Mount the NitroFS of NDS files, DSiWare saves, and FAT images. * View and edit the contents of files with a hex editor. * Calculate the SHA-1 hash of files on Nintendo DSi and Nintendo 3DS consoles. * Browse files on supported flashcards when running GM9i from the NAND or SD Card (AceKard 2(i) & R4 Ultra (r4ultra.com)). * Browse files on the internal NAND of Nintendo DSi consoles. * Browse files on the SD Card when running GM9i from any DS-mode flashcard (Requires TWiLight Menu++ with Slot-1 SD/SCFG access enabled, and TWLMenu++ installed on the flashcard.) * Translated to many different languages. Join the [https://crowdin.com/project/godmode9i Crowdin project] to contribute more. ==User guide== Backup cartridges: * To back up games, choose the drive from the list and follow the on-screen instructions. * For Nintendo DS and DS Lite, GodMode9i can back up Slot-2 cartridges if running from a Slot-1 flashcard, or Slot-1 Game Cards if GodMode9i is running from a Slot-2 flashcart. Backup/Restore saves: * Save files can also be backed up using GBA cartridges. * For DSi, Unlaunch is needed to back up Slot-1 games to the SD card. Refer to [https://dsi.cfw.guide/ dsi.cfw.guide] for Unlaunch installation instructions. * For 3DS, a modern CFW environment is required to run GodMode9i. Follow [https://3ds.hacks.guide/ 3ds.hacks.guide] for instructions on installing Luma3DS + boot9strap. * To restore saves, use GodMode9i to select the .sav file on your SD card while the Game Card/cartridge is inserted, and choose "Restore save." How to dump saves from most DS Game Cards using GBA cartridges (from [https://wiki.ds-homebrew.com/godmode9i/faq DS-Homebrew Wiki FAQ]): * Load GodMode9i on your flashcard. * Backup your GBA saves to avoid any data loss. ** (Note: Save data that hasn't been backed up will be lost.) ** Check the files and identify larger ones; using 512-byte carts won't be practical, while 64 or 128 KiB saves will fit most DS saves in 1 or 2 carts. * On the drive menu, press R+B to unmount the flashcard. * Eject the flashcard, insert a DS Game Card and GBA cartridge. * Select "NDS GAMECARD" then "Save." * When prompted, press A to write the data to the GBA cart. ** Swap to different GBA cartridges and repeat until the entire save is copied. * Reboot your DS with your Slot-1 flashcard back in and reopen GodMode9i. * Insert the first GBA cartridge used and select "GBA GAMECART." * Choose "DS Save." * Swap through all the carts you dumped onto. * Your DS save will now be in fat:/gm9i/out; you can restore your backed-up GBA save files to their original cartridges. * If you want to write the save file back onto the Game Card, select the .sav file and choose "Restore save (Slot-1)," then swap out your flashcard for the DS Game Card when prompted. ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/3dshomebrews/godmode9i3.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/3dshomebrews/godmode9i4.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/3dshomebrews/godmode9i5.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/3dshomebrews/godmode9i6.png ==Changelog== '''v3.9.0''' * What's new? ** [https://github.com/ApacheThunder @ApacheThunder]: Added support for mounting these flashcards without the need to launch them first: *** CycloDS Evolution *** DSpico *** DSTT *** Demon/DSTTi clones *** EZ Flash Parellel *** Games n' Music ** [https://github.com/edo9300 @edo9300] & [https://github.com/Lorenzooone @Lorenzooone]: TWLNAND contents can now be read from 3DS consoles! ** Various: Updated translations. * Bug fixes: ** [https://github.com/Lorenzooone @Lorenzooone]: Fixed NAND mounting on dev 3DS consoles. ** Fixed libfat to properly read and write files above 2GB. * Known bug: ** When booting a <code>.nds</code> file without launching the above flashcards first, they'll be stuck on white screens.
