DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap v0.71.1

on GitHub

Included in TWiLight Menu++ v25.9.2

Instructions:

1. Download the .7z file.
2. Extract the nds-bootstrap .nds and .ver files, to root:/_nds.

All changes in this version are only for B4DS mode.

Bug fix

• Fixed games not booting if FAT cluster cache size is larger than 0x598 bytes.
  • To make room for the large cache, the game's heap is shrunken. If Memory Expansion Pak is inserted, or the cache size is 0x598 bytes or less, the heap is untouched.
  • To find out if it's larger than 0x598 bytes, turn on logging, launch the problematic game, and open root:/NDSBTSRP.LOG.
  • If you've used nds-bootstrap on a flashcard known to be stable enough with it, and a game wouldn't boot, you may have gotten this situation.
  • This is a useful fix on DSi/3DS if you're running your flashcard in DS mode, as there is no Slot-2 available.

Known bug

• If there's a game not working properly, and the FAT cluster cache size is larger then 0x598 bytes, then either backup the flashcard's SD contents and re-add them (as a way to defragment the SD), or insert a Memory Expansion Pak.
