So, I've kind of got sick of the DS filesystem. My crappy code doesn't work on a few NSMB ROMs and doesn't allow me to change the size of files. So: Does anyone know where I can find some code for Visual Basic 6 that can work with the DS filesystem?
I know this is probably a hard request, but it would help me a lot with my editor (including if I decide to write editors for any other games, like Mario vs. DK2). You'll also be credited in the editor itself.

Do you have any docs on the DS file system? I can see what I can come up with.

GuyPerfect sent me some, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to distribute them. (If needed, my "attempt" at this is available along with the NSMB Editor source code.)

It's not exactly distributing as much as sending an experienced VB6 user something to work with so he can help you.

ndstool.exe also will unpack the filesystem as well as reassmble it. One might start by looking at what it does. The source is probably available too.

Bump.

Also, I've looked at the NDSTool code, but I can't understand how it works.
(Maybe not a good idea.. it doesn't reassemble NSMB into a working state!)
