You're right. It wouldn't work, because DS flashcards can't be read in CTR-mode.
Well could you use the same way that woodfilemanager works? or would that not work for a DS emulator. Or maybe you could remake Add Games and edit woodfilemanager so it goes like Add Games.

Also whenever I try to add another game, after I add a game all my folders in Games are DSCraft, I go back and there's like YSMenu stuff. I go in the folder and the regular Flashcard MicroSD is there. I go to click on games but it gets stuck on *Entering Directory.

This should be fixed in the next version.

This might be what you're looking for.

Thank you! Just used to update the files in "_nds" folder!
No more needs to take microSD out of the R4 and possible breaking the spring in the process (yes, I have the FIRST and original white card R4 with spring lever in microSD slot xD )

Ok @Robz8
I have a question now that I have more info about my flashcart, but I don't have my 3DS with me, just my DS Lite.

The flashcart says R4 Revolution for DS (NDSL/NDS)
On the DS Lite it boots right after the DS Health & Safety screen. Basically on boot.
On the 3DS, it doesn't read it as a game, it does nothing.

Can this work on TWLoader?

Thanks in advance.

After I clean installed everything since the auto updater crashed for some reason I now get stuck on a white screen after the health and safety message.I think i've had this happen before.

Edit:Its claiming I have no bootstrap but I do have it.Maybe I have to redownload again.

Yet another weird issue that doesn't occur to me.

What did you do?
all I did was hit "A" at add games and it, gave me these errors: (1.) start failed error 1 (2.) start failed error 1 (3.) bootstrap not found

Did you update TWLNAND side? If so, extract the files in "sdroot/_nds/twloader/loadflashcard/" from TWLoader.7z, to "sdmc:/_nds/twloader/loadflashcard/".

Take out the folders from "sdroot", hence "sdmc:/" actually being the sd root.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

TWLoader v3.2.1

What's new?
  • The "GUI" and "NTR/TWL" buttons in settings, now work by touching them in the touch screen.
  • The Start/Select menu now disappears whenever a donor ROM is set/unset. (by @umbjolt)
Improvements
  • The white square of the NDS card image now looks like the one from DSi Menu.
Bug fixes
  • The "Add Games" menu now restarts after a game is added. This is only tested with a DSTWO, so DLDI might go unpatched after restarting.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.
