Here is a picture of my flashcart
I downloaded the "Original R4/M3 Simply" pack and put it in the root folder of my flashcart microSD. The .nds file is in the ROM folder. This is what it looks like:
Then I drag my nds file from the ROM folder to the DS-Forwarder and click the save button to generate the CIA file with the following settings:
Then I transfer the generated CIA file to my 3DS SD card and install it to my SD using FBI. Then I insert my flashcart(with microSD) into my 3DS.
As you can see, the 3DS recognizes the flashcart and the CIA file was installed (Mario game). Then I start the installed CIA app.
Instead of launching the game it launches a non functional R4 menu. Clicking on any of the options results in a blank popup as shown below.
If anyone can tell me what I did wrong, that'd be great! Thanks again!
