Hi
I'm having trouble running the ZXDS emulator on my O3DS with Luma3DS installed. I got TWLoader++ so that I can run .nds files from my cfw 3DS without a flashcart and it just doesn't get past the splash screen. Ie "ZXDS is starting up". I'm assuming that's what TWLoader++ is supposed to do, run DS homebrew and backups without the need of a flashcart.
Thanks in advance

nds-bootstrap has shoddy homebrew compatibility with nds homebrew right now
also, twloader is outdated, use dsimenu++

Wanna point me in the right direction for dsimenu++ ? I can only find twloader and the repo only was updated several days ago. But if nds-bootstrap compatibility is low guess I'll have to wait.

Okay we're talking about the same thing, it's exactly what I installed from that thread. It must be a compatibility issue I might try the ZXDS page for possible solutin.

nds-bootstrap's primary focus is on retail ROMs, and homebrew support has pretty much been halted. The reason for this is to prove that the console itself can act as a flashcart, which has been just a dream up until recently. I hate to say it, but if you want to run NDS homebrew, just get a flashcart. The cheapest is like $9. You'll get something primitive, but it'll get the job done and also act as a universal hacking tool for all *DS consoles.
