If you really want the most up to date firmware for the M3 Real, that would be the M3 Quad-Boot or The Temp Sakura

I guess i would take the temp sakura mostly becuase my friend just wants one firmware not 4.
i have a question though, the temp sakura seems to have the same name as the m3 sakura i posted on my first post, any difference?
also what would you recommend?

if you just want to play the newest games and don't care about the interface, I would suggest getting Y3Menu for M3, M3 Sakura hasn't been update for 3 months

if you care about the GUI and the game compatibility and you event want a softreset my answer is WoodYS:

Same GUI as Wood:

And it almost support every game thanks to RetroGameFan's updatet:

which firmware (YSmenu or wood) are you reffering to? I don't think neither of those requires you to hold down b to use cheats.

EDIT: oh, okay. I didn't realize you were reffering to woodYS. it doesn't mean that your cheats won't be activated only when you press b; it means that you have to hold b (while selecting your game) in order to choose which cheats to use. Then, you boot your game and the cheats will be activated.

also didnt downlaod it yet but is WoodYS native or would i have to boot an nds. (dont want that)

as far as I know, you'll have to boot as an nds file.

It's the very same Sakura, I just updated the cheats. Go with retro's files since they are way more up to date compared to sakura

 

[kirbymaster101]

to make ysmenu native for m3 i just only add ttmenu folder not the system folder?

 

[kirbymaster101]

srry for bumping but wood WoodR4 for m3 be better to use?http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=268715&st=0&start=0

or is it basiccaly exactly the same as retorogamefan just acekard gui.

ysmenu with retrogamefans stuff is for now the best to go since it still gets updates but Wood for M3 wasn't updated for a while because it's maintainer Gaboros is not getting the source code from Woods developer anymore.

It is. It uses retro's updates to load the ROMs, but also uses Wood's GUI for an overall better experience.

Not really. You should read Gaboros's topic again. He is now using retro's stuff to load the ROMs, so his new "WoodYs" menu is still as updated as retro's menus.

Whoops, didn't saw that someone responded to me.

Tue, but doesn't change the fact that the actual wood port itself is outdated since it cannot be updated anymore and WoodYs is the wood menu using retro's stuff, for me not entirely the same as what WoodR4 for M3 has been before. ( I liked the wood loader a lot

even with its fragmentation problems, which Gaboros even managed and bothered to fix, thanks for the dedication Gaboros
