How to install[thanks to Bri for the detailed instructions]

Spoiler

To install TTMenu and YSMenu for DSTT:

1. Make sure you have the newest version of YSMenu. Grab the TTMenu firmware from the following link (it doesn't contain any fake-killer code whereas other versions might): http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=2872
2. Unzip the TTMenu archive. Place the "TTMENU" folder onto your microSD card.
3. Unzip the YSMenu archive.
4. Create a folder named "YSMenu" on your microSD card.
5. Place a copy of "TTMENU.DAT" from the official menu into the same folder as the "ttextract.exe" program on your PC. Run "ttextract.exe" on your PC. Place the two resulting files ("ttdldi.dat" and "ttpatch.dat") into the "YSMenu" folder on your microSD card.
6. (a) If you want YSMenu to be your default menu, rename "TTMENU.DAT" from the official menu to "TTMenu.nds" and place it onto the root (top level) of your microSD card. Then place a copy of "YSMenu.nds" onto the root of your microSD card. Then make a copy of "YSMenu.nds" named "TTMENU.DAT" on the root of your microSD card. You should now have "TTMenu.nds", "YSMenu.nds", and "TTMENU.DAT" (a copy of "YSMenu.nds") on the root of your microSD card.
(b) If you want TTMenu to be the default menu, place a copy of TTMENU.DAT from the official menu onto the root (top level) of your microSD card. Then place a copy of "YSMenu.nds" onto the root of your microSD card. Then make a copy of "TTMENU.DAT" named "TTMenu.nds" on the root of your card. You should now have "TTMENU.DAT", "YSMenu.nds", and "TTMenu.nds" (a copy of "TTMENU.DAT") on the root of your microSD card.
7. Optional: place the skin files "YSMenu1.bmp" and "YSMenu2.bmp" (these don't come with YSMenu) into the "YSMenu" folder. You can find a NDS-like skin here: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=3082
8. Edit "YSMenu.ini". Place a semi-colon in front of the line that says "LITERALS=LITERALS_JPN". Remove the semi-colon from the line that says "LITERALS=LITERALS_ENG". Save your changes to "YSMenu.ini" and place it into the "YSMenu" folder on your microSD card.
9. Make a new folder named "games" and put a few .nds files in it. Always use the "safely remove hardware" utility before removing your microSD card from your PC. Place the DSTT into the NDS, place the microSD card into the DSTT, and turn on the NDS.

That should be it. If you are using TTMenu as your default, simply run "YSMenu.nds" to get to YSMenu. Otherwise, it should launch directly into YSMenu and you can run "TTMenu.nds" to get back to TTMenu.

When you're done, you should have the following files and folders on your microSD card:


YSMenu.nds (YSMenu)
TTMenu.nds (TTMenu)
TTMENU.DAT (a copy of whichever of the above two you want as your default menu)

YSMENU (YSMenu firmware folder)


YSMenu.ini (YSMenu init file)
ttdldi.dat (extracted from the official loader using ttextract.exe)
ttpatch.dat (extracted from the official loader using ttextract.exe)
YSMenu1.bmp (optional skin)
YSMenu2.bmp (optional skin)


TTMENU (official firmware folder)


all the files from the official TTMENU folder are here


games (games folder)


your .nds files go here

Nice but NDSS.nl seems down for me.

I never was able to get Ysmenu to work on SC DS-One using the triple loader. All DS games I try to load give a loading error. And when I highlight Castlevania Order of Ecclesia, the thing freezes up.

How do you install on R4?

It is, but if you're looking for R4YSauto it's right here: http://www.gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=103879
It don't know if it will work with this version though... I hope I can look into it today.

 

[UltraMagnus]

nice version number......

any way to install this on my AK2?

 

[NISAN]

WHERE IS THE DOWNLOAD ?

 

[rasputin]

Pity it doesn't produce a R4patch.dat.

 

[Maikel Steneker]

Yes. You can use akextract instead of ttextract, and you should name the YSMenu binary akmenu4.nds in order to use it as the default menu.

WHERE IS THE DOWNLOAD ?
Go to the link in the first post. Near the top is a link that says "in Japanese" - use it. Search the page (Ctrl-F) for the text "2009/01/01 00:00" (without quotes.) One of the two occurrences of that text is the download link.

Yeah, it's a pain - Yasu just doesn't want his soft mirrored off site.
QUOTE(rasputin @ Jan 1 2009, 08:43 AM) Pity it doesn't produce a R4patch.dat.

Indeed, but it's more of a pity that Yasu's last release saw something like 3 or 4 new R4/TT junky clones hit the market using strictly his soft instead of the people making them actually coding something themselves - not to mention all that crud about someone pretending to be the official R4 folks.
