YSMenu is a Custom Menu for DS FlashCards. You can boot GBA, NDS, and emulators. NDS Loader is same as official kernel. Now it supports DSTT and AceKard2.

Features

• Simple directory view
• can backup/restore SAV file
• can delete file
• can boot GBA/Emulators directly (Slot2 cart required)
• Sleeps when DS is closed

Limitations

• Not graphically 'Pretty' (See DSTT Menu, YSMenu)
• doesn't support Multiple 'Skins/Themes' (It's possible using 3rd party Homebrew - see later)
• Uses Official DSTT loaders - so any problems with DSTT then this will not fix them
• Default Language/Help is Japanese, so some editing required to get English

Installation

To install TTMenu and YSMenu for DSTT, It's recommended to make a backup of your microSD card and reformat it.

• Newest version of YSMenu

Search for title "DS(T_T)DS" (CTRL-F). (There is a scrollable text area beneath that heading. Select the first item in the scollable list to download the latest version.)

• The official TTMENU folder

For DSTTi, make sure your card is genuine but not a fake one, or it would be destroyed by the official fake-killer firmware.To prevent it, it is recommended to substitute with DSTT kernel (fake-killer-disabled).

• 'fake-killer-disabled' TTMENU.DAT

For DSTT users

1. Run ttextract.exe with OFFICIAL TTMENU.DAT.
2. ttdldi.dat and ttpatch.dat will be extracted.
3. Copy ttdldi.dat, ttpatch.dat and YSMenu.ini to TTMenu directory in TF.
4. Rename my YSMENU.nds to TTMENU.DAT and copy it to TF instead of official TTMENU.DAT

For AceKard2 users

1. Run akextract.exe with OFFICIAL akmenu4.nds. akloader.nds will be extracted.
2. Copy akloader.nds and YSMenu.ini to YSMenu directory in TF.
3. Rename my YSMENU.nds to akmenu4.nds and copy it to TF instead of official akmenu4.nds
