I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Mission Accomplished.

i linked it earlier. twilight hack doesnt work anymore, use bannerbomb.

http://www.mikeandheth.com/games/109-st ... enu-4.html

is the best most detailed instructions out there.

edit: i have had the best luck using the following parts

western digital my passport hard drive

sandisk sd card (normal, none of the extreme stuff). like this

http://www.amazon.com/Sandisk-SDHC-Memo ... 622&sr=8-1

the sd card is the realllllll shitty part. you can get cards that work great, cards that work part of the time and cards that dont work at all. these are the parts that i have used and had 0 problems with so i recommend them.
