Hacking Homebrew game Versions for DS Game Maker?

[WaterPhish]

Been looking into DSGM, but I don’t know what versions of windows it can run on. Anybody know?

Does it matter? Apparently the fan-site's downloads are just VMs. As long as you can run the VM it doesn't matter what it's for...you just need like 6GBs of space instead of a couple hundred MBs and they recommend using a singular outdated version of Virtualbox which is awkward.

What do you mean? Can I just install it, or do I need something like Virtualbox?

It's a VM, which means you will need virtualbox to run the VM.

Alright, thanks. Do you know what Operating System I need to run?

Sorry for my rudeness, but why would you need to use a game creation toolkit if you don't even know how VMs work?

All I asked is which OS I should use and what software I should use.

Try Windows 7 or XP

You can use whichever os you prefer, as long you run that program on the vm. IDK about the software tho

I actually managed to get it working on windows 10 without virtual box. I even made a tutorial on how to do it for anyone else interested.
