Homebrew [NDS] Forwarder CIAs for your HOME Menu

[Olmectron]

Hmm, so I screwed this up some how? using an original R4 which is now supported? grabbed the "Original R4/M3 Simply" pack and put it on my Cards SD, ran the Forwarder3-DS program, selected all my .nds files from the R4 SD Card made sure they all had unique Title IDs and had "Keep NDS files" and "Files on SD" ticked.

This created forwarder-GAMENAME.nds I assume they just go the root of R4 SD with the original .nds files? installed one of the .CIA and got told YSMenu is missing?

Original R4 is still not supported. That will be until I decide to update the app. Or if you can hex edit the now functional R4's template.

Ah, Gotcha, since was files I thought it was supported, just not by the Forwarder App, there a guide on doing the Hex Editing?

I think there was? Sorry, I don't have a lot of time right now for helping. Maybe I'll upload the update tomorrow.

The option of having forwarder-GAMENAME.nds is optional and not needed, since they become the CIA forwarder(s). Just uncheck "Keep NDS files".

Also, you might have missed this:

Flashcards to be compatible in the future:
Original R4 (Non-SDHC, 2GB or less)
M3 Simply (Non-SDHC, 2GB or less)

Attention Acekard RPG users.
Please test this CIA, and make sure if it works. Make sure you have WoodRPG in the flashcard.

Say, I have a R4i SDHC Dual Core (the 2013 version, with a Spongebob icon) and it says it's prone to bricking.

I have yet to try anything, but can I use this? If no, will there ever be support for it?

Try shortening the .NDS filenames, or put the Forwarder3-DS folder with the program's .jar file and .dll files in the PC's hard drive root.

This isn't normal. Try opening the .CIA in a hex editor. Go to 3900.

That is definitely not normal. Try calling Pokemon Black just pkmnbl.nds.

WHAT it worked.

 

[RocketRobz]

WHAT it worked.

It seems like 6 characters + .nds worked for you.
make_cia has a file location character limit, but the specific number remains unknown.
