Please submit a bug report here then: https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues

Tell the devs what flashcart you are using (or if not using a flashcart, which console), which SD card you are using (brand & size) and which nds-bootstrap version and which game.

AKMenu-Next will tell you in "Help & About" which version of nds-bootstrap is being used.

I'll give pico-loader a try then. I don't use cheats anyways.

Just remember that it's called Pico-Loader and not to be confused with Picoboot (IPL modchip firmware for GC).

Pico-Loader by itself is more solid on flashcarts compared to nds-bootstrap which technically was never for flashcarts to begin with.

You can autoboot this on the 3DS
You need to uninstall or not have the Twilight Menu launcher installed
Install the 3DS version and either rename Twilight's boot.nds or overwrite it
Once all setup, hold "Select" while booting the system
In "Hbmenu autoboot" set to "DSi"
Press start
System now autoboots into akmenu next

Please can you specify more info about the issue you're having and what your setup of AKMenu-Next is?
 
Pico-loader v1.6.0 "Cheats Release" is here!

Note: You need to wait until AKMenu-Next supports the new API v3 with the cheat args, and then place the "usrcheat.dat" file inside the "_pico" folder (Get the most recent cheat database usrcheat.dat here)

Pico-Loader: https://github.com/LNH-team/pico-loader/releases/tag/v1.6.0

Added​

  • Support for the SuperChis slot 2 card - by @edo9300
  • Most of the remaining SDK 2-4 DMA patches - by @taxicat1
  • Support for cheats
    • The Pico Loader API was updated to v3 for this purpose.

Fixed​

  • Star Wars Jedi Alliance patch - by @taxicat1

Its not officially supported by AKMenu-Next but iirc from what @The Catboy said, you need to set up the autoboot for Twilightmenu++ and then replace Twilight's boot.nds with AKMenu-Next's boot.nds

AKMenu-Next will likely support cheats in the next version.

I don't know if this has been addressed, but can it be made so that on boot, the menu defaults to the last run rom, instead of just the folder it was in?

This has been implemented in the code, you'll see a toggle for it in the next version :)

Awesome, thank you! I also want to ask if it's possible to have a wifi on/off setting like twilight menu does. If you autoboot akmenu-next through unlaunch, wireless is off.
