Homebrew [NDS] Forwarder CIAs for your HOME Menu

[Volit]

Is there any way to use more than 40 forwarders but using a flashcard? YANBF can exceed 40, but it doesn't work with flashcards, right?

There is no way to use more than 40 forwarders with a flashcard, afaik.

I want to play Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow (rom) on my 3DS, but I remember when I tried to play it on my DS many years ago, the game would always freeze from time to time, making it unplayable. As I recall this was one of those game roms that didn't work very well. Can anyone confirm if it's working any better today and actually is fully playable without any freezes/white screens.

Haven't heard any issues with that game recently, so it's safe to assume it's working fine now.

Which settings are you wondering about, in particular?

 

[Nomelas]

BOOST_VRAM = 0
CARD_READ_DMA = -1
ASYNC_CARD_READ = -1
DSI_MODE = 1
EXTENDED_MEMORY = 0
DONOR_SDK_VER = 0
PATCH_MPU_REGION = 0
PATCH_MPU_SIZE = 0

all these? lol

 

[RocketRobz]

BOOST_VRAM = 0
CARD_READ_DMA = -1
ASYNC_CARD_READ = -1
DSI_MODE = 1

See this page: https://wiki.ds-homebrew.com/nds-bootstrap/glossary

These are either unused, or not important:

EXTENDED_MEMORY = 0
DONOR_SDK_VER = 0
PATCH_MPU_REGION = 0
PATCH_MPU_SIZE = 0

EXTENDED_MEMORY is the extended memory duh.

DONOR_SDK_VER No clue about this one.

PATCH_MPU_REGION Should be forcing game to switch to a region?

PATCH_MPU_SIZE I think this one is about pixel scaling?

EXTENDED_MEMORY was meant to expand ROM space limit when pre-loading a ROM into RAM. As it is has been improved and now a default feature, the .ini setting went unused.
DONOR_SDK_VER is meant for ROM hacks which strip out the SDK information. The forwarders and TWiLight Menu++ automatically set that.
MPU stands for Memory Protection Unit.

So im on a newer PC (which means I have to reinstall all of the tools I used for Forwarding). Whenever I download the forwarder and extract, the .jar comes up as a rar file; no biggie. I try to run it as .jar as its intended but when I do the command terminal launches for a brief second then disappears. It seems that I can't run the .jar file for whatever reason.
