This cart is basically the same as R4. There are a few differences and some other additions seen below:

• All SD read/write (0xB9/0xBB) has no sector shift.
• 0xBC does an XOR on the last byte:
  • BC XX XX XX XX 00 00 YY
  • XXXXXXXX = sector address
  • YY = XOR of every byte in command reg, so BC EOR XX EOR XX EOR XX EOR XX EOR 00 EOR 00
• 0xB4 works... on SD cards that aren't SDHC. because sector address must be <<9'd. Kernel uses normal SD RW for games.
  • Save read/write commands on the R4 doesn't work on the Ace3DS+ if you do this for reasons not exactly known. Wood ports by some old devs used SD RW for saves and 0xB4 for ROM.
• 0xB6/0xBF seems to be supported... kinda. It's different from how the R4 does it. No idea at all how it works yet.

R4iTT is a known flashcart with dozens of clones out there.

Here I try to write notes about the particular kernel it runs:

• The version number of kernels are identical across the board. i.e. if r4isdhc.hk has 1.70, then r4i3d.com 1.70 is identical, and so on
  • This isn't the case for the r4igold.cc however, which seems to use its own version scheme, while the actual files are similar to the other kernels
• mixinfo.dat seems to be bogus on Wood-only kernels; they were only really used on the RTS kernels (which kinda sucks).
  • TODO: test kernel without mixinfo.dat present
  • However, infolib.dat based kernels do exist (from which version is unknown), and those do actually use infolib. This is easier to maintain by external users
• BL2CK kernel is an updated version of the last infolib-based kernel. Last known version: 1.52
