Once I create a forwarder CIA, and install it with FBI, i'm presented with a title-less and icon-less DSI game, and when booted, Presents an error screen. Does anybody know how to troubleshoot this? I'm using DSTT

First of all, is your program path or NDS filename too long?

A new forwarder template is now available!
Click on the button next to the Forwarder3-DS title, and click "Update templates" if the app isn't set to update templates at startup.

What's new?
  • You can now run ROMs on your SD Card (no Slot-1 flashcard)!
Please note that only homebrew and Download Play demo ROMs will work for now, but as others said, we'll get commercial ROM loading soon.

Holy shit!
That is amazing!
So apps like DS Doom will work now without a DS Flashcard to boot them?

What is ARM9 speed boosting for...? well I guess the name says it all, but will it really boost the speed of the games? or is it some incompatible leftover? 'cause PKMN black 2 doesn't run that smooth to be honest...

So, uhm, noob question but where should I put the .nds file after I've made a forwarder with the 3ds sd card template?
Which .nds file? If you mean the forwarder .nds file, you don't need that.

It wont be long now!, question would the games be forward channels to load the rom off the sd Or can they be cias like full games?
Likely to load the ROM off the SD.

No, the one for the homebrew, my bad. Should have probably said that. Do I need to put it somewhere on my sd card, and if yes is there a specific folder I need to make or anything? If I missed this in the first post I'm very sorry. >.<

Was "Games are on SD card" checked?
If so, did you select the ROM on the SD Card, and not the PC?
If so, where was the ROM on the SD Card?
