I'm trying to get better at TDS, but can't always play my DS. I've been messing around with LockJaw, trying to get it to be the same, but I'm missing some values. If anyone could tell me the value (in TDS) of
-Max Entry Delay
-Line Clear Delay
-Max Sideways Delay (how long till DAS kicks in)
-Sideways Speed
-Soft-Drop Speed
I'd appreciate it. Also, is there currently a Tetris clone that would be better than LockJaw for a TDS set-up? The buttons have to be remappable because I've been playing Tetris for so long that I'm so used to my left hand moving pieces and right hand rotating that I can't use the arrow keys for movements. Thanks a lot for any answer you can give.

this is from the Tetris DS (http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/../wiki/index.php/Tetris_ds) wiki page.
entry delay - 0
line clear delay - 40 frames
sideways delay - 11 frames
sideways speed - 1/5G
soft drop speed - 1/3G (i think)

Lockjaw is probably as accurate a TDS clone as you'll find. you could also try Heboris practice mode or Blockbox, which both have configurable options and controls.

Has anyone worked out the EXACT speed curve?

If you know the exact numbers, they can be entered into my custom game generator to create an accurate emulation with web highscores. If you do it, please also consider updating the settings page (http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/../wiki/index.php/Tessellate_Simulation_Settings).

Here is my first attempt (http://www.ryanheise.com/tetris/tessellate_wizard.html?url=http_253A_2F_2Fhi-games.net_2Ftessellate-s_252Cl_252Ck20_252Cg_2n19m_252Ca_l_2O_252CfkpuE2_ 2524bi2cqe0941285175) at it. I have so far entered in the numbers mentioned above, but made only an estimation of the speed curve based on studies of the few youtube videos that I could find. I couldn't actually find a video of a complete game, so for the moment I have interpolated.
