Optional packages
Section titled “Optional packages”DSperate, by beebono, is an independent Nintendo DS emulator under GPL-3.0-or-later. UMRK’s Leaf content pak packages their work for MLP1. You can install it through Pak Rat on Leaf 0.12.0 or newer. The pak’s console render and wordmark were generated with ChatGPT and supplied by UMRK; they are packaging artwork, not an official DSperate logo.
