Other 3DS custom Firmwares
1 project | /r/3dspiracy | 20 Aug 2021

I'm wondering are there any other Custom Firmwares for the 3DS besides Luma3DS? The reason I'm wondering is because Luma3DS is a Firmware targeted primarily towards "noobs" and I'm looking for one that is for advanced users. I know that when it comes to boot loaders there are solutions for advanced users (Fastboot3DS) and was wondering if there's anything similar in terms of CFW.

(TwilightMenu) Is there a fix for Pokemon White/Black freezing when trying to save?

Pokemon Black 2 occasionally locks up while Saving. Any possible solutions?
1 project | /r/3dspiracy | 7 May 2023

If you’re using twilightmenu/nds-bootstrap it’s a known issue, you could try the nightly build in the comments of that page to see if that’ll solve your issue.
Pokemon Black freezing when trying to save sometimes
1 project | /r/3dspiracy | 3 May 2023

I seem to have gotten my Black Version to save consistently by running it in DS mode. I've never had widescreen enabled, so I'm not sure if that has any effect. It was also saving consistently when I ran it in TWiLight Menu++. There are a few recently opened issues (like this one: https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/1567) on the nds-boostrap github page that say it is freezing while saving in DS mode and TwiLight Menu++ too, so your mileage may vary.
Twilight Menu: Pokémon White 2 freezes while saving
1 project | /r/3dspiracy | 1 May 2023

I was able to fix my issue of freezing whilst saving, I opened the per-game settings for the game on TWL++ then turned off "Card Read DMA". Got it from this page; hope this works for you too!

[Nds Brew] Comment ajouter et initier des tricheurs pour NDS Bootstrap avec NTR Forwardor?
1 project | /r/enfrancais | 17 Apr 2023

Le NTR \ _Forwardener mentionne "Ajout de la prise en charge de la triche" (Source), mais sans aucune documentation. Cependant, le contributeur a mentionné ce qui suit (Source):
Pokémon SoulSilver Randomized NDS file running on TWiLight Menu++ Rocket Robz. Happens every few minutes, I can return to the last time I saved, but it’s annoying. Any clue how to fix it?

This issue looks very similar: https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/1528
is there a way to install pokemon black 2 and make it work with pokebank?
4 projects | /r/3dspiracy | 18 Nov 2022

If its from something like Twilight Menu++ or Nds-bootstrap , idk if pokemon bank can read the save file, but if doesn't, you could use PKSM to transfer them to a 3DS Pokémon game and transfer from that to Pókemon bank

What are some alternatives?
