Just to be clear, can someone explain to me what are the pro/cons of this one against CtrBootManager?
This has no GUI, it autoboots whatever you choose as default, while for booting something else you hold down a button while booting, for example you can set rxtools as default to autoboot, hold B to boot decrypt9 and so...

Does this have better boot rate than CtrBootManager?

Does the 1.1 release solves the random black bottom screen issue in rxtools (while booting the menu)?
Thanks

Maybe, however i think this is a problem with rxTools itself (so you may try to update it to the lastest nightly too).

Should be the same, however it may have a better boot rate if CtrBootManager did not update the CakeBrah code (however, you should ask @cpasjuste and not me).

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Since someone remembered me, I posted the final version of BootCtr v1.1 in OP. There is basically no change between the pre-release, so if you're using the pre-release there is not need to update.

Enjoy.

It's an RxTools problem, and I recommend to stay on 02-10 nigthly if you are on n3ds, it's the best one right now.

I know it's a stupid question but, on the OP, it said that i can load ".dat" files.
Can i load gateway's launcher.dat with this?

I've installed menuhax and therefore the boot trigger only occurs when I hold L.
- If I set the config for homebrew launcher to R. I will have to start up with L and then switch to R. I can't just set it so it boots directly holding R.

Hence this is what I did:
- If I just hold L and let go as soon as the grey screen appears, I will boot into HBL.
- If I keep holding L for the entire time, I will boot into rxtools.

P.S:
Loading the code.bin file from the rx tools sys folder isn't really good. As you have to press A and then press Y (load into emunand).
Whereas rxtools from the homebrew always works instantly.

So, does anybody know how to boot up rxtools instantly into EmuNand?

Recent versions of RxTools should automatically boot in emuNAND unless you press R key. So I don't understand why you're pressing A and Y to archieve the same thing.

Maybe you disabled the autobooting of RxTools in the settings?

It's the L button actually.

You will have to change the "L" config on the bootctr to another button, because its the default key of rxTools to acess its configurations, and I believe you cant change the rxTools Button.
That is why you have to press "A" then "Y" to boot rxToos.
