v3.1.0

Installation

To install AKMenu-Next, follow the Setting Up AKMenu-Next page.

Updating

Follow the instructions to update AKMenu-Next and nds-bootstrap & Pico-Loader on the updating guide.

Changes

• DSiWare can now be loaded from the DSi SD card without needing a DSpico. It can be loaded with nds-bootstrap or Unlaunch.
• Themes can now use up to 10 bgm files per filetype, bgm1.wav to bgm9.wav and bgm1.bcstm to bgm9.bcstm, along with bgm.wav and bgm.bcstm, allowing for a maximum of 20 songs per theme, chosen upon random at boot.
• Supports showing covers for GBA games, by reading the GBA game code or filename, it looks in _pico/covers/gba/ or _nds/covers_code/ & _nds/covers_name/
• AKMenu-Next now sets a Donor ROM automatically when loading DSi-Enhanced games via Memory Pit which means those games can use the DSi features if Unlaunch is not installed.
• You can now set custom banners & icons for your games by adding a NDS banner BIN file in the same folder named as gamename.extension.bin, for example for Mario.nds, it would be Mario.nds.bin. This also works for games launched via a plugin.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed clock not advancing on 3DS, thanks to @Deletecat for this fix.
• Fixed games being launched by a plugin not being added to the Recently Played list.
