I used twilight menu to load my NDS games on my hacked n3DS, but I noticed it had a Boot slot-1 function.
I tried putting in an original R4 revolution for ndsl, and it somehow worked fine.
it worked for any of my flashcarts infact!
with this discovery I know that if you boot something in DS mode and boot the flashcart from inside that ds mode application, you can bypass the blocking sequence!
I noticed that after booting the R4 original with this, it showed up in my home menu too, but with no title and icon.

so, is there any app that boots the slot-1 cart after the 3ds's initial cart check?
(by that I mean an app that does just that and doesn't have to load an entire menu like twilight menu)

(if do not know how the 3ds system works, if my above information about how it is able to boot is incorrect, please correct me on that)

you seem misinformed twilight++ can indeed boot flashcards its one of its functions . . . its not just anything ds mode will allow ds flashcards regardless here is a link to the thread you are looking for R4 Stage2 TWL Flashcart Launcher(and perhaps other cards soon™)....

iirc the Boot Slot 1 function is just NTR Launcher included in TWLMenu++, but you may find the Stage2 launchers that turdpoocharger linked useful as well.

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:

    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
