DSLua has returned with a new group! Sypherce, Daltonlaffs, and I (Jeremysr) wil be developing DSLua from now on. And right now we are releasing DSLua 0.6!

The new features are a wifi function library, auto-starting a script (behaves like an actual DS homebrew program), new system and stylus functions,  and a microphone library.

It has also been compiled with much newer versions of PAlib and devkitPro, and as a result lua programs run much faster now.

DSLua still comes in CF and GBFS flavours. But now the CF version uses LibFATDragon and comes with grey, green, and blue versions, like DSorganize. This makes it compatible with lots of homebrew devices.

We also wrote a documentation. It comes with DSLua 0.6 but there is a link to an online version on the menu to your left.

Please go to the Downloads section to download DSLua 0.6.

Angor has updated his Snowball Battle game with lots of goodies to look real professional:

Finally the game starts getting a friendly commercial-like look!
Main improvements from previous version are:

* Great graphics update and removal of all text: splash screen, animated menus, results screen
* New game mode added: time limited match

Angor has been busy working on version 1.3 of Snow Battle.  Now with music, sounds and better AI!  Very cool. :)

Since the new DS LUA (v0.5) supports music, now the game uses it!
Main improvements from previous version are:
    * Added intro/game music
    * Sound/Music can be turned on/off
    * Cleverer NPCs (npc against the wall bug removed

You can find the new Snow Battle game in our Project forum.

Everything but the kitchen sink release! This release is based on alot of the user feed back I've gotten. Major features are the file io support and mod music support!

File input/output support through Lua's default io methods. Now you can save those high scores directly to flash cards (the ones supported by Chishm's driver).

Added functions to retrieve system information, such as user name/birthday/current time/favorite color..etc.

All trignometry functions in the math libraries are now using degrees instead radiants, i.e. math.cos(0)=1, math.cos(90)~=0. My apologies if you are using them currently.

Lua files are highlighted in green now. The file selector also tries to remember the previous location between script runs.

Same as the previous releases, version 0.5 comes in CF and GBFS flavor. Grab them from the file section.

Ack!  Angor's is too quick!  A new version 1.1 is now ready.  You can now have multi-player fun on single DS! :)  I just tried it with a friend, it's a blast!
