I mean. The Tutorial could be better and easier to follow. But it is possible to understand and follow if you pay attention. And after getting it done once it seems pretty clear.

And it should even be possible to write a very simple tool to do all of that for someone. Simply load up the rom to get the infos out and autowrite to the 2 files. and build a CIA. shouldn't be to hard tbh.
Except I have no idea about the whitelist card. And the M3 doesn't seem to work. So I am trying to get a TTDS or R4i by tomorrow.

The easiest way to see if the flashcart you have 100% doesn't work is to use one of the example forwarder CIAs. Just make the DAT file. I used Super Mario 64 DS as the example, use SM64DS.DAT as the name and make sure it points to the location of the Super Mario 64 DS rom. So I had it pointing to SM64DS.nds as the test, and worked first try no problem.

Well I don't have the SM64 US Rom. And the forwarder isn't even creating a YSMenu.ini on my Flashcard. Therefore I am pretty certain it won't work.

Quick google search can fix that. Also, the YSMenu.ini is only created when the forwarder works and the game launches.

Stuck in whitescreen.
So either my setup on the Flashcard is wrong or the M3 doesn't work (which is more likely. Because it autoboots perfectly on the DS Lite. with YSMenu)

I mean you can boot NDS roms using it on the 3DS without using the forwarder cias, just by starting up the flashcart and using it's own software to run roms.
The 3DS is recognizing it as G6 Flash.
But currently the Autoboot is not even working on the DSLite anymore. something broke.
Whatsoever I'll jsut wait for the TTDS/R4i

does this work with Supercard DStwo+? My birthday is 5 days away and I have absolutely no idea what to get, so I'm just going to get a DS flashcart

So... quick question, honestly expecting the answer to be a straight out "no", but still. Does this work with the original DSTT for NDS/NDSLite? The one that never actually worked on 3DS.

I don't own the original DSTT, so I can't confirm.
