What's new?

  • A new look for the DSiMenu++ logo/icon, and the splash and settings screens! (Graphics and mockups provided by Vulpes-Vulpeos)
  • The top screen border and shoulder graphics return to the DSi theme!
  • Per-game settings added! Set a specific setting for your game.
    Press SELECT on your ROM to bring up the settings.
  • Quick-start ROM is now turned on by default for 3DS users.
    If you still have it off, be sure to turn it on, in case launching a ROM takes you back to the 3DS HOME Menu.
  • You now only need one bootstrap (two, counting SDK5 build) for both 3DS and DSi consoles!
    The separate bootstraps for 3DS and DSi have been merged.
  • unofficial bootstrap has been renamed to nightly bootstrap.

Improvement

  • START border color/text in DSi theme is now the same from regular DSi Menu!

Bug fix

  • If Quick-start ROM is set, and going into Start last-ran ROM in DSiMenu++ Launcher is done, starting a game in ROM select menu no longer breaks touch input.
  • Removed Use donor ROM option.

v4.2.0: First release with the name of DSiMenu++

UPDATE 6/17/2018: nds-bootstrap v0.9.0-RC2 now included!

Starting with this release, SRLoader gets a new name, called DSiMenu++, named after Explorer++, which is a replacement for Windows Explorer.
Also starting with this release, DSiMenu++ replaces TWLoader, as TWLoader is now discontinued, as it'd take longer to maintain both DSiMenu++ and TWLoader repos, also due to the fact that TWLoader takes some time to start, including icon caching, downloading/loading box art, and pauses when picking a game.
DSiMenu++ has none of these issues, replicates the DSi Menu more accurately, and only working on that will bring faster updates.
As a result, we now just have one menu to load ROMs on the SD card through, and the upside is that it works on both DSi and 3DS/2DS consoles! ;)

How to upgrade from SRLoader

  • In sd:/_nds, rename srloader to dsimenuplusplus.
  • Re-extract the _nds folder to the SD root.
  • Re-extract what's inside CFW - SDNAND root folder, to the SDNAND root.
  • Overwrite boot.nds on SD root, with new one.

Anyhoo... on to the changelog!

What's new?

  • Flashcard autoboot files have been updated!
  • You can no longer set a donor ROM by pressing SELECT.
  • Pressing SELECT on a highlighted ROM will now show the ROM's SDK version!
    This feature also works on flashcards, making DSiMenu++ the first ever DS(i) homebrew to show a ROM's SDK version!

Improvement?

  • Text on the top screen of the R4 theme is now white. It is still hard to see some text, though.

What's new?/Bug fixes

  • Old method of direct ROM loading with no reboot, has been restored as a new option called Quick-start ROM.
    This is useful, in case if you're thrown back at the DSi/3DS HOME Menu plenty of times, or at a Luma exception screen.
    However, this option will break touch screen input, unless when launching the last-ran ROM outside of DSiMenu++, but the next version of nds-bootstrap will fix the touch issue.
  • An option to enable/disable DSi icon animation has been added! (Disabled by default)
    Disabling the animation will fix some icons appearing as white squares, particularly in the DSiWare list. (suggested by @jerbear64)

Bug fixes

  • Touch screen now works in old DLDI homebrew!
  • If last-ran ROM is (old DLDI) homebrew, it will now use the homebrew bootstrap, instead of the regular one.

UPDATE 5/28/2018: The two titles on DSi Menu are no longer blank.
Once again, re-extract what's in the CFW - SDNAND root folder, to the SD root.

UPDATE 6/6/2018: autoboot.bin file for HiyaCFW is now included.
If you are getting the An error has occurred. screen when using HiyaCFW, place the mentioned file into sd:/hiya, then in HiyaCFW settings, tick the Autoboot title option, or replace the 0 at TITLE_AUTOBOOT in sd:/hiya/settings.ini with a 1.

What's new?

  • CFW users: When launching a .nds ROM, SRLoader now reboots into a title that sets NTR touch and WiFi for nds-bootstrap.
    Please re-extract what's in the CFW - SDNAND root folder, to the SD root.
  • 3DS bootstrap is now used instead of DSi bootstrap for 3DS using DSiWarehax.
  • You can now exit to DSi Menu in START menu, by pressing X in DSi/3DS theme, or pressing B in R4 menu, even if DSi Menu is replaced.
  • NTR Touch option has been removed, as it no longer serves any purpose.
  • Now creates a 1MB save file for Zelda: Spirit Tracks.
    Delete your existing 512KB save file for Zelda: Spirit Tracks.
  • The console name text has been changed:
    -Nintendo DSi -> Retail DSi
    -Nintendo 3DS -> 3DS/2DS/Panda DSi

Improvement

  • The Please set Mario Kart DS as donor ROM. has been made elaborate.

Bug fixes

  • Wireless icon is no longer shown on GB(C)/NES ROMs or folders.
  • Touch screen now works in nds-bootstrap (starting with v0.8.0) again.
  • Headphone support is fixed in nds-bootstrap.

As of this month, it is SRLoader's 1st Anniversary!

What's new?

  • SRLoader has now become a DSi Menu replacement!
    To replace the DSi Menu on boot, go to settings, then select Replace DSi Menu.
    NOTE: Unlaunch+HiyaCFW (latest version) is required for SRLoader to start on boot.
  • You can now launch DSiWare! SRLoader can be used to bypass the 39 title limit of the DSi Menu!
    Using a text editor, place the path of the DSiWare's .app file, then save as an .argv file.
    (example: sd:/title/000300xx/xxxxxxxx/content/000000xx.app)
    The .argv files go in sd:/_nds/srloader/dsiware.
    In SRLoader, to switch between ROMs and DSiWare, press Up/Down in the DSi/3DS theme, or the R button in the R4 theme.
    NOTE: .argv files for system apps are included in the DSiWare (your region), and when you folder.
  • Yep, R4 theme has been added!
  • In the START menu, you can now launch a DS game inserted in the card slot!
  • DSi/3DS theme: Messages below the game icons have now moved into a message box.
  • You can now press B to go to the previous directory. (Only works if directories are set to be shown.)
