I updated DS TrimDrop to version 1.1. It has one really nice new feature you could now drop zip files on it. TrimDrop will then decompress the zip to a temporary directory and trim all nds files that are in the zip to the directory where the zip is located.
Changelog
Version 1.1
- fixed a bug in the filename building
- added support for zip files
- changed the icon design a little

How about releasing a universal version? The version here is x86 only. Specifically, ndstrim is x86 only.
Does this trim tool still retain the wi-fi capabilities of the games (or are they “stripped out”)?
Thanx.
DS TrimDrop 1.1 can’t trim some ROM on my G4 but the v1.0 work.
Thx for this tool. It worked for me on my iBook G4 after some fiddling around. The key was not to rename the application. When I renamed the program to add “v1.1″ the program did nothing. Once I restored the original name, everything worked great (including dropping .zip’s).
Just a followup… I noticed that when I dropped several non-consecutively numbered ROMs on DS TrimDrop, the outputted files sometime come out with the wrong number (usually it is one less or one higher). It’s simple enough to renumber the files manually, but I thought it would be useful to point this out. I’m not aware of any comparable tools like this on Macs so I’m more than happy to live with its few shortcomings.
DS TrimDrop 1.1 can’t work for me (G4 cube).
When I trim a zipped ROM, this error appear:

When I trim a simple ROM, DS TrimDrop crash.
The v1.0 works fine.
Sorry! You can delete my messages. My ds_trimdrop.zip was not proper. I redownload the v.1.1, this works.
I’d started using DNSTokyo Trim but now my Parallels installation has siezed up I’m back with DS TrimDrop – thanks. Have you used that, I gather it has the same core code, but the interface show progress, lists of files, MB trimmed, etc.
BTW The first google hit for this program is the page for 1.0[4] at http://www.blogadresse.de/2007/02/01/ds-trimdrop/
Maybe you can disappear that page or update it to include a link to this one.
Works like a charm !
This doesn’t work. Everytime I drag a nds file to the icon it quits.
Which OS and which CPU do you have?
w/ a PPC G4 and 10.4.10 it’s ok
Again:
Does this trim tool still retain the wi-fi capabilities of the games (or are they ”stripped out”)?
Thanx.
EDIT:
Scratch that. Just realised this app doesn’t work at all anyway. Tried 5 roms…all 512kB (eg pro evo soccer 6, diddy kong racing etc)…and none of them got any smaller at all anyway.
Using a PPC powerbook G4, 10.4.10.
Nice try though and thanx for the effort
;-)
Gaffer, those are save files that you are trying to trim. The rom files end with nds.
