I think its just random when it wants to work, because i just started up Black from the forwarder, and its working as AP patched.

It seems that this tool can't make forwarder for fan translated SRW OG Saga Endless Frotnier Exceed.

After creating and installing the CIA, the result is blank icon without name and black screen of death. Although the modded rom works fine in TwilightMenu.

Blank icon is most often just because of long ROM name though, so shorten it to under ~15 characters and see if that works.

But... how? It doesn't look like I can change it in this forwarder tool.

I was sure we are not talking about renaming file. Check the above screen. Name of the file is quite short - three words even without spaces. The shortest one I checked among my files. And only this one didn't work.
Try moving the Forwarder3-DS folder to the hard drive root then.

Meanwhile, just out of curiosity I checked japanese .nds file with veeeeery long filename. The results are excactly the same.

Just did it. Alongside with the translated rom. And it worked :toot:

Now I have no idea why it didn't in the first place. The final file that worked was named just like on my first screen - EndlessFrontierExceed.

Now, another question: if I changed names of the roms, I need to generate new forwarders?
