Homebrew [NDS] Forwarder CIAs for your HOME Menu

[RocketRobz]

no that's the thing i ACCIDENTLY dragged it in...i just mentioned it in the post because i didn't know if maybe it causes problems if you use an SD card. i have neither cards only a sd card.

So just use the SD card forwarder pack.
If you're already using that, check the FAQs for the error you're getting.

so do the flashcard files not mess with anything, and does the fact that i just got these roms off the internet not matter? (just asking ill probably try again )

Right.

I had the box checked from the start.

do you have the roms in the correct folder? they should be in sd/roms/nds

Does this work with the 3ds's micro sd?

Yes, it does.

Yes, it does.

Great! Now time to read your tutorial and figure out how to do it.

I have an Acekard 2i and there are two DS Game Fordwarder packs:

(Acekard 2(i) - Forwarders)
(Acekard 2(i) - TWiLight Menu++)

What's the difference between them?

Edit: Nevermind, I'm just stupid. You explained this literally on the last page.

TWiLight Menu++ is a GUI where you can pick a DS game to launch.
Forwarders are shortcuts to launch a DS game on the SD card, from the 3DS HOME Menu.

Once I did it, it just deleted all the Cia files without actually installing the forwarding things. Do I also need to copy over the .nds forwarding files the program made?

To be clear, do I need to actually install the full twilight thing? I thought it was just _nds and that one listed file.

IDK if this is standard, but once I power my 2ds XL on and off once, all of a sudden all of the forwarders appeared, so NVM.

Further Edit, one of my ROMs (WarioWare: Touched) causes an error, but Clubhouse games doesn't. Is there some way to fix it?

I had the Roms in sd/roms. Do I need to add the nds folder?

Wait for DSi mode support in nds-bootstrap to be added.

if they are ds roms, then yes, if they are other types of rom then the sd/roms folder should have folders for those types as well.

Alright, thanks.

On Linux (Xubuntu) I am getting the "Error: Could not find or load main class com.olmectron.forwarder.Forwarder3DS" when trying to run the .java. I reinstalled the Java JDK which says that it includes JavaFX. I was unable to find any other way of installing JavaFX. I don't see any other troubleshooting steps in the FAQ. What should I try next (or should I just give up and run on windows)?

I am doing all the steps right but when I have them on my 3ds the background of the cias are red. Is there any way to fix it?

Are you referring to the border of the icons? If so, that's due to the 3DS theme using that color.
If not the border of the icons, then wdym?
