For those who are getting the following error when trying to run Forwarder3DS.jar:

Could not find or load main class com.olmectron.forwarder.Forwarder3DS

You need to install JavaFX version 8.

The Forwarder3-DS tab in the first post will tell you how.

so i currently have pokemon black 2 on my home screen through the forwarder, and when i hover over it, the banner seems to be the same as before i redownloaded it with the banner icon replacement. did i do something wrong? i even deleted it from my ds and reinstalled it with a new .cia version with the imported banner

If the icon is blank white, then shorten the ROM's filename.

the icon is not blank, it just looks the same as before i reinstalled it with the imported banner

Delete the forwarder in System Settings -> DSiWare Data Management, and then re-install the forwarder.

so forwarder3ds created both a .cia and a new .nds file for the imported banner, do i replace the .nds file in the sd/roms/nds folder as well, or just the .cia, apologies for the questions and for taking your time.

Just the CIA.

 

[Odin-Sevryn]

Just the CIA.

I have got to be doing something wrong, the banner still looks the same

So i must have had an old version of Forwarder3-DS because I do not have a "sdcard.nds" file on my SD card but all my forwarders have worked for a long time.

I tried to add a game today and it gave me the "wheres the sdcard.nds" error. and also the forwarder only takes up 3 blocks instead of 12 on my system?

so i tried to add the sdcard.nds file and make a forwarder cia, but when the game boots, the touch screen doesnt work. works fine in Twilight though.

is it possible to get the old Forwarder3-DS.jar version somewhere?

Did you update nds-bootstrap as well?

i just did, now the touch screen works but the top and bottom screens are flickering back and forth.

That depends on the game and clock speed.
Make sure BOOST_CPU is set to 1, in "sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap.ini"

Derp, I meant 0.
1 is what would cause the flickering.

Search for the patch of the ROM hack, then patch your clean ROM.
