Homebrew [NDS] Forwarder CIAs for your HOME Menu

[RocketRobz]

Cartridge is inserted properly, and dstwo pack is extracted. I can play games if I load the cart, but not with the forwarders.

Have you extracted "for 3DS SD card" to the 3DS SD card root?
Have you extracted "for Slot-1 microSD" to the flashcard's microSD card root?

 

[Harx]

Yes to both, but previously I didnt have the 'for 3ds sd card' stuff installed. I do now, and it still gives me a white screen.

 

[Harx]

I've read places to install the forwarders on both sysnand and emunand. I just install the cia's using fbi. Is that enough?

Any progress on booting retail games from sd?

Yes.

We're still quite far. Also, I just mantain the forwarders.
Here's the progress thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/ds-i-mode-hacking-progress-thread.413015/

Not to nag, but do you have any ideas what could be causing my issue? I've been feverently googling since it happened, and the most I've found out is nothing.

Is Forwarder3-DS and the forwarder templates (not the packs) up-to-date?

 

[Harx]

I'm using forwarder 2.8.2, and I thought the templates were up to date. I just opened it and chose the option of 'look for template updates', all it does it just load a message at the bottom which fades away. So I dont know if anything changed.

Yep, they're up-to-date. When was the last time you downloaded the pack?

 

[Harx]

I dont know what you mean by pack? for the dstwo cart? Yesterday.

Sorry if I already asked, but is your card a DSTWO Plus?

 

[Harx]

I dont think so, its a supercard dstwo. I cant see the word plus on it anywhere.

If you're sure you have the following in the 3DS SD Card,

• _dstwofwd
• nds/ntr_forwarder.ini

and that you replaced every file that's in the flashcard with the files from the DSTWO pack, then I'm out of ideas, 'cause it sounds like you did everything right.

 

[Harx]

I have both on the 3ds sd card, though just a quick question, when you say replace, does that mean I first put on the official dstwo card program, and then replace certain files with the one I downloaded from this thread. Because I didnt do that, I just put the one from this thread on the sd card. It runs my games fine, so I didnt think it was an issue.

You don't need the official files. Most of the files in the pack are already the official files.

 

[Harx]

Then I'm completely clueless. Do you have any idea of anywhere else I could go to ask for help?

This is the only place.

 

[Harx]

Well shit, the thing is, the forwarders worked with my dstt card, back when I had to use .dat files as well. I thought it would be better to use a dstwo card since then I can play custom roms as well.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Could it possible be that the games are getting stuck on the ds splash screen? Sorry if I'm bothering you, I just really want this fixed.

 

[Harx]

Good news! I have an error message. I used forwarder3-ds 2.0 and installed the cia I got off that.

Now I have an error message: FAT init failed!

What does this mean for me?

Will a card from this site work?

I got one from a fleamarket for cheap. Will forwarders work with it?
