So it is an Anti Piracy feature for ZeRo Collection?

Yes, the graphical corruption is an AP measure.

Yep! Check TCRF if you're having issues with a game since they usually talk about AP measures on each page. They don't provide patches though.

Also, call it the Zero Collection please. Lowercase r. It's a simple mistake, yes, but you'll easily trigger OCD fanboys like me.

Soft reseting still don't works for me lel
Obs.: Luma's game patching is enabled.

Right, so I came here to ask why Age of Empires Mythologies has weird graphical glitches, but it is apparently an anti piracy feature. Hmm. Is it ok if I ask here how to patch NDS roms?
I actually remember having done something like this but this was many years ago.

Yes. Try using DS-Scene ROM Tool.

Hi can add a mode that you can select a ds game ex: Pokemon Diamond and a gba game ex: Pokemon Ruby and them can pass pokemon of Ruby to Diamond?

Slot-2 emulation would have to be implemented into nds-bootstrap first.

Oh ok

I'm having a strange issue where I can only get the menu to display the contents of my 3DS SD card, and there's no option to display the flashcart files (R4i 3DS RTS). Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

That's normal. Your flashcard isn't supported for direct access, as you have to launch the flashcard containing TWLMenu++ for viewing the flashcard contents.

Following the steps in the OP here, launching the flashcard from the 3DS menu now gives me a completely black screen (or sometimes a black screen with a MicroSD icon and a folder?). Can't figure out how to actually get into the menu.

I mean launch the flashcard using TWLMenu++, not the system menu.

Launching the flashcard from within the app sends me to the black screen with a microSD and folder icon floating about. It almost seems like the standard flashcart menu but completely blacked out?

So I'm having an issue with this software on my r4i gold + 3DS.
I had previously successfully got the software working on my new 3DS XL with CFW but the compatibility list doesn't include some NDS games I wanna play. I followed the instructions and the software runs on the flashcard and I can even access the menus. BUT when I try to open a NDS game, it reloads, taking me back to the software's home menu (not default home menu). I'm not sure what I'm missing because I'm not even getting error messages. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I wasn't sure whether to use the r4 gold autoboot files or not so I tried it with and without them. Same problem.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I uninstalled the software from the new 3ds XL on the off-chance it was causing incompatibility issues.

EDIT 2: Ok so I thought I was getting somewhere but now I'm really confused. So far I have gotten 1 game to work but the others don't. [The loading screen comes, fills up, then freezes]. I was under the impression that I could use TWIlight menu ++ and not have to worry about the compatibility list if I was running it through the r4i gold + 3ds card. Is this not the case?

EDIT 3: Not sure if this will help but I have confirmed that the roms themselves run fine if I use the r4i gold + without twilight, but with twilight, only New super mario 64 ds works. Even games that are completely fine according to the compatibility list ( e.g super mario bros., mario kart ds) are both freezing at loading screen.

There's a B4DS section in the compatibility list.
B4DS means nds-bootstrap for flashcards, btw.

But I thought if you're running the game from a flashcard, then you won't need the list

Oh I think I understand now. So is it possible to use r4i gold+ 3ds flashcard firmware to run TWIlight?

Try launching a game with nds-bootstrap off (in TWLMenu++ settings) first.
