I have this R4i3D 2015. Will it work? Are there any risks in this? I haven't been updated about DS flashcards for quite a long time now. I used to own an acekard 2i back in DS Lite days, but never owned a R4 before.

Probably a dumb question, but is there any chance the forwarded NDS games could be recognized by PokeBank's Poké Transporter app? I assume it can't either because CIA's ae not recognized or because it can't properly forward the save data, but I am asking just in case before I buy a R4 Card.

Have the same r4i3d, except "2015" sign (probably older version than your's), and it works fine, maybe you have wrong ysmenu?

Well I'm afraid that R4i-SDHC RTS 3DS is indeed not compatible with TTMenu :\ It just white screens when booting the cia. Very odd I must admit since like I said when running YSMenu.nds it opens perfectly fine.



(Ignore music - Had to use YT audio swap since I accidentally had school stuff playing in the background)

Sorry to be off topic but what was that Facebook app?

We should ask to GW/Supercard team to add forwarder support natively on their cards.

Well... I tried...
Now my 3DS crashes whenever I plug my R4 in...
R.I.P
Actually, it does work. It just needs to be all the way in the card slot. It'll sometimes happen with my R4i-SDHC 3DS card.

The YSMenu in the packs are not wrong.

The app would have to be hacked to read the save files from the flashcard. Use a save editor instead.

So, good news. I re-did everything and now all the ones I've tried seem to launch "correctly" so far.

Bad news, they all launch into the main YSMenu screen.
Use the search button to look for YSMenu.ini in the card. Rename them, but leave the one on the root alone.

I'm not sure I understand correctly? There's only one YSMenu.ini and it's in the root. Every time I launch a different game the auto-boot section in YSMenu.ini changes which .nds it's using, but it seems to still go right to the default YSMenu.nds menu.

What does YSMenu.ini look like?
