Hey, so installed the twilight menu ++ from them video guides, and when i launch it>touchscreen>touch robz8 avatar, it brings me directly the the selection of them folders, it doesnt ask me which DS type console i am playing on, also it doesnt bring me to the DS Lobby where i can acces the settings like the screenshot below... i followed the instructions clearly step by step so idk if theres something wrong and also if it does matter, since if i launch twilight, it brings me straight to my roms folder.

Please don't follow video guides. It seems that video contains outdated information.
You no longer need to manually select the console, and to access TWLMenu++ Settings, press SELECT to open the DS Lobby.

Hi, does it work with Acekard 2.1 on DS Lite? I've managed to run it via AKAIO, but games don't work, with or without nds-bootstrap.

Hello.:)

I am sure our "faster as the Light" Support Wizard @Robz8 and his Miracle Workers will make it possible in the next Release(s) of nds-bootstrap/TWiLight.
And the best Thing: All for free.:D


Thank you.:)

You know Micro Mages? The NES game that came out... last year?
I tried putting it in the roms/nes folder like everything else in TWLmenu, but it... doesn't work for some reason. It just doesn't show up. FBI sees it, my computer sees it but TWL doesn't.
Edit: Out of nowhere, it fixed itself.
Just wondering: the SELECT menu Manual graphic is a bit off for some reason (weird horizontal gibberish line at the top). How do I fix that?
Edit 2: It does not work. It starts, but when I try to start the game and select "1 Player", it enters a data test thing where the top screen is black and the bottom screen is just frame and position data.
How do I get it to... well, work?

Hello.:)

Maybe the Rom is not ok.:(
And I also think it is simply to new for this "old" Emulator.

No, the rom definitely works. I also put it into the NSUI injector thing and turned it into a (FUNCTIONING) Virtual Console inject so I could do multiplayer thru Download Play. (I mostly want to use emulation stuff with it on NESDS, but also multiplayer with friends, so I did both.)
However, as I said, it oddly doesn't work on TWL NESDS.

Does Twilight menu have any advantage running gba roms, over installing CIA file to homescreen?
If theirs no advantage, rather install/convert gba roms and open them from 3ds menu homescreen.

Also, any way to create shortcut to open specific rom from twilight menu? Or does everything go through twilight menu app.

Everything goes thru TWLmenu.
The advantage is that you can have it with the rest of your roms and whatnot in one game app on the home menu, and you can use a couple (only a couple- GBArunner2 doesn't really have much customization) things you wouldn't be able to thru virtual console.
