Hey, so I downloaded the latest build, and whenever I try to generate forwarders for dstt, it just makes an empty folder and does nothing else. I know that it isn't an issue with the .nds or sd card because I can generate cias using acekard as a card model (solely to see if it works). Any solutions?

Hold B while it loads.

M3 DS Real now works.
GW Blue Card also works now, albeit with bad game compatibility, due to save files unable to load.
3DS SD card: More old DS homebrew now work, thanks to @ahezard's nds-bootstrap (included in the pack).

Using that did nothing, but I downloaded 2.0, updated through that, then it started generating cias :/
Ok, so I've been at this for hours, but I'll try to keep this as short, but detailed as possible:
I'm using an r4i 3ds sdhc (bougth from r4i-sdhc.com). I have my ds roms on the flashcart as "flashcartsd:/ROMS." I downloaded the "DS Game Forwarder pack (DSTT, R4i Gold, R4i-SDHC, SC DSONE)" pack, and copied the contents of "for Slot-1 microSD (R4i Gold, R4i-SDHC)" to the root. I also got the 3DS SD Card files, "_dsttfwd" and "nds," then put them in the 3ds sd card root directory. Now with my most recent attempt, I ticked "Games are on SD Card," "Auto-Random TID," and "Update templates at startup." I browsed to my "ROMS" folder on the flashcart, then selected them all and they loaded in. Once loaded, they all had blue TIDs, so I proceeded generate them. I generated the CIAs, and copied them to my 3ds sd card, to a folder I have for cias. Using FBI, I finally downloaded the forwarders.
SO now the problem: No matter what I've done so far, the forwarders never boot anything, resulting in an "error" telling me to look at the Operations Manual, like it does when a card isn't seated in well. However, if I press the flashcart's icon like it was a normal card, it boots up fine, but with the original kernel. I'm not sure what YSMenu is supposed to look like on my type of card, but one of my theories is that YSMenu is simply not starting up? Not sure, send help please.

No firm patches.
Overclockable games.
The boot screen flag is not disabling the boot screen for me.
Edit:
WWDIY isn't wanting to work. :-/

Got it.

If you want a sysnand cfw follow https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Get-StartedWow, and I thought I had exhausted all my options. Thank you, though because of this I want to get updated SysNAND cfw, been a long time due.

Seems it works by installing on NAND but stuck at white screen , guess its not compatible

Yup, and I thought it might be the problem. I'll rename it to check it out.
UPDATE: Renamed it, no luck.
Still not having any clue about the second issue, though.

I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.+1 -

I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet -

Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.

Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150
