DS⁽ⁱ⁾ Mode Hacking Info

This is a Discord server that specializes in all things related to Nintendo DS(i) modding and homebrew, from helping set up your flashcard to homebrew development. This server also has a focus on other things such as creating ROM hacks, playing DS games, and TWL_FIRM modding on 3DS.

Discord Channels #

There are plenty of channels for different topics, so make sure you’re using the right channel so the others don’t get flooded with unrelated conversations.

Always remember to check the channel topic and pinned messages before talking in a channel.

Lightning is also used for moderation purposes (to log warns, kicks, mutes, and bans). Keep Direct Messages enabled in the server in case we ever need to reach you.

The Staff Team #

These are the people who maintain the server. If they say something is final, it is not up for debate. These members are hoisted in the Member List. Do not ask to be a part of the team, as it will decrease your chance of getting accepted. Members will be added to the team if and when seen fit.
