v6.3.1, now with TWLSDK/SDK5 bootstrap support!

IMPORTANT: You'll need to install the CIA or 3DSX of this version from the .7z file, as v6.3.0 or lower will crash if WiFi is on.

What's new?

• A new different bootstrap is used for TWLSDK/SDK5 games!
  Any game with T or V (Most DSi-Enhanced games have that) as the first title ID letter will be ran through the SDK5 bootstrap. If your game doesn't have that, hold Up after pressing A to launch the game, if the game doesn't seem to work. Release Up after the DS(i) boot screen or white screens appear.
  Check the list below for where you won't need to hold Up.
• In addition, SDK5 bootstrap's version number is shown below SDK1-4 bootstrap's version number in settings.
• Bootstrap loading screen previews are now shown in NTR mode settings!
• Added "nds-bootstrap:" text above bootstrap version number.

NOTE: The SDK5 bootstrap included is unofficial and not stable, and may only be used for testing. Make sure to set bootstrap to unofficial to use it.

Bug fixes

• Missing file(s) are now downloaded, even if quick start is off. As a result bootstrap can now be updated in Settings, if the setting is on.
• Removed reference to old bootstrap in Bootstrap's description in settings.

You won't need to hold Up to play the following games (Please note that some games listed may not be compatible as of this TWLoader release.)
