what should I edit in order to run the forwarders in my original r4?

You missed this:

Flashcards to be compatible in the future:
Original R4 (Non-SDHC, 2GB or less)
M3 Simply (Non-SDHC, 2GB or less)

@Olmectron should be releasing a new version that fixes support for these two cards. The wait is too long.

 

[1vanchom]

Original R4 is still not supported. That will be until I decide to update the app. Or if you can hex edit the now functional R4's template.

I remember this... well... I understand he should be busy... so... maybe I have to wait...

also say thanks a lot for the forwarders @Robz8 and thanks for the tools @Olmectron

It feels awesome that I can launch all my games from GB to 3DS in home menu.

Forwarder3-DS v1.6.6 is now up in the OP!

The original R4 should be working now, as the template is based on WoodR4's source code.
Also:

If you let a TID in red (unvalid), it won't generate the NDS file, nor the DAT file (in the case of DSTT option selected). And of course no CIA.

Now a file is created called "used_tids" when you generate new forwarders. That file is used for later checking the already used TIDs from the whitelist, so when you "shuffle" them, you don't get one that you already used (and is in the "used_tids" file).

Try unchecking "Keep .NDS files".

Where would we even buy a compatible flashcard? Weird question, but I've searched eBay for the cards listed and nothing. I don't trust Amazon either.

You can't just buy things like that from eBay or Amazon Well it depends on where you're from. Judging by your country flag I'd suggest you to look here: http://www.nds-card.com/
http://www.nds-card.com/ProShow.asp?ProID=146
This would be the right card.

Thanks a ton! I saw nds-card.com as a trusted seller but somehow that went blank when I was thinking if where to buy a card.

This may be me messing up somewhere but I've tried to make forwarder cias for my Original R4 (which has been working normally using Apache Thunder's stage 2 launchers) with no success. I'm using the wood r4 pack linked to in the original post and made sure the "Games on SD card" option is enabled and the TIDs used are not blacklisted.

I've remade the cias a few times and each time I attempt to launch them I just get stuck on a white screen in "DS mode". Any ideas?

I'm having some trouble and would appreciate some help:

I've successfully got everything working, with icons for each DS Pokémon game on my home menu. The problem is, that the HeartGold icon will not appear. It exists in the DSiWare part of System Settings, and I've uninstalled/reinstalled it multiple times. Strangely, sometimes it does appear after installation, but then the Pokémon White icon disappears. I've tried deleting any other DSiWare games I have, but that hasn't fixed anything. Does anyone know how to fix this or why it is happening? Thanks.

You went over the 40 game limit of DSiWare. Copy any game/forwarder you don't use often, to your SD Card, and delete them in System Memory.

No ideas at all. I don't have an R4 to test with. I'm going to test just the CIA.

EDIT: Yep, white screens.

Which version of the Java app did you use when trying those?

Which version of the Java app did you use when trying those?

I was using ver 1.6.6 - both the standalone java application and the version that is installed. (running most recent version of the java runtime environment v8 update 91).

I got a white screen as well. The original R4 template is confirmed not working.
