Is there a way to make DS games launch faster from the home screen on a 3DS?

I did the edit "sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap.ini" and changed one of the settings.
BOOST_CPU: If set to 1, TWL clock speed is used...

But games still take around 45 seconds to one minute to launch.

I mean, it's fine and all, just wondering if there's an updated way to make em launch faster :) thanks!

You're using TWilightmenu? And once you launch a game from TWilightmenu you wait 45 to 1min to show anything?
You're not using a DS forwarder like this or YANBF
Sorry, I realized I didn't include all the info

Yes, the DS Forwarder in Like "this" using SD card

Also, not using Twilight Menu
Using the home brew app of DS injection converter to play the game from the new 3ds home screen.

And then when I launched a game, it took around 45 seconds to 1 minute

thanks for the reply!

Update:

It takes around 10-15 seconds now! Which is way faster!

I went back to edit the ini file in the _3ds folder, it never saved my changes to the file so it did it again


the edit "sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap.ini" and changed one of the settings.
BOOST_CPU: If set to 1, TWL clock speed is used..

I also changed VRAM setting from 0 to 1
Hope this helps anyone else too! Thanks!

That's how long it's supposed to be. And it changed to that just by editing the nds-bootstrap.ini file?

Not sure if you were supposed to do edit that file manually, or if there's any repercussions by doing so. @RocketRobz might tell you if you weren't..
Also, this issue shouldn't happen, maybe you're using a larger sd card (+64gb) with 32kb cluster size, and you need to format it with 64kb instead to reduce loading time. But i'm not sure. Again, @RocketRobz might know if there’s such a thing..

1) correct
2) ah ok. I have a 128gb and I think it formatted at default 32kb. This will be helpful, thank you

thanks for the reply
