Just install menuhax + CtrBootManager. Place the Gateway.3dsx into the folder called 3ds with the other homebrews. Boot your console into CTR and select Gateway.3dsx as default booting choice. In this way you'll still be able to use .3ds/.3dz files with your GW.
Homebrew Launcher (need it to install menuhax)

just place all the 3 files of the package that I've linked you on the root your SD, overwrite/delete the older ones. Then, if you have already installed menuhax you should find a file on the root of your sd which his name start with ropbinpayload. Open it with an hexeditor like HxD and search boot.3dsx. You'll have 2 results. Change these results from "boot.3dsx" to "auto.3dsx" (without ""). Save and exit. Reinsert the sd back to your 3ds and turn it on holding the select buttom. You should launch CtrBootManager. From there, setup as default entry point Gateway.3dsx and try to reboot your console to see if it works properly.Done, but how exactly do I boot CtrBootManager? There are the two boot files for it, where do they go?
turn it on holding the select buttom.
Hold LThat's what I was missing, however it doesn't work. I turn on my 3DS while holding SELECT but it just boots into sysNAND.
Keep trying it's finicky that happens to me as wellNow on boot by pressing L it just freezes, the top screen is all fuzzy and the lower screen is plain white.
Did you edit the boot.cfg and add the path for GW.3dsx?Err: Couldn't open rxTools/sys/blabla
Press any key to continue... and it freezes. How do I tell him to pick GW.3dsx?
Did you edit the boot.cfg and add the path for GW.3dsx?
Open boot.cfg in wordpad and add a new entryNo. With what do I do that?
yes go to settings, set the timeout to 0 and default Gateway (or whatever you named it) with boot fix set to 0 as well.Ok great works. So I turn on, hold L and I'm in Gateway emu correct? Thank you both for the patience.
