Homebrew [Discontinued] TWLoader - CTR-mode NDS app

[RocketRobz]

I noticed after updating I still have the checking for banner data message popup, it doesn't scan all 55 titles now it just says now checking banner data on sd and then it goes to the menu. Do I need to edit something in settings.ini?

No. Dunno why you're still getting the message, but at least it's faster now.

I'm fairly sure that TWLoader doesn't work at all with the Acekard 2i -- the only posts in the thread mentioning it seem to all have the same problem. Has it ever been confirmed to work?

My problem is identical to this -- dual white screens regardless of settings when launching either a game or Add Games from the flashcard. I've been trying this periodically from November or December with a clean install each time and the problem has always existed, even back when using the 3DSForwarder-generated inis.

Incidentally, I can launch TWLoader.nds when loading my flashcard directly, but it still doesn't work properly. When run through AKAIO, it fails to create any inis or icons, and if launching YSMenu first it fails on boot with a ">>HBMenu++<< (if you see this, something has gone wrong)" error.

Did you update the flashcard pack?

Does anybody know how the saving works? Where the saves are and if there is a way to import my Flashcart *.sav? My question was overlooked two times. Is this maybe the wrong thread and i should contact nds-bootstrap? (Is saving done by TWLoader or nds-bootstrap, guess bootstrap?)

Thanks in advance.

Bootstrap does the saving.

If you add your games from your flashcart then the saves are already linked. To switch saves, just replace the saves in your flashcart.

can i load a game from this flashcard?

can i load a game from this flashcard?

Yes. Just launch "Add Games" with the game location being the flashcard in TWLoader.

 

[elcampeon4000]

but,this give me a white screen what´s happen?

 

[RocketRobz]

but,this give me a white screen what´s happen?

1. Is "loadcard_dstt.nds" from TWLoader.7z in "sdmc:/_nds/"?
2. Did you set your flashcard to DSTT/R4i-SDHC/etc. in the settings screen?

 

[elcampeon4000]

yes

 

[RocketRobz]

yes

Try updating the TWLNAND side CIA.

 

[elcampeon4000]

yes,i update this and i have the white screen

 

[RocketRobz]

yes,i update this and i have the white screen

If you're sure that

1. You extracted the flashcard pack, with "TTfwd.dat" and "YSMenu.nds" in the flashcard's microSD root,
2. "loadcard_dstt.nds" from TWLoader.7z is in the 3DS SD Card, at "sdmc:/_nds/",

Your flashcard doesn't work.

Why not run games from the 3DS' SD Card, even though some games don't work? bootstrap has gotten speed and compatibility improvements lately.

For me they arent, i use R4Gold 3DS RTS, i set Mario Kart DS as Donor Rom and saved, the save was newly created, the *.sav (that's what configured) or the old *.nds.sav (was using that before and switched) weren't used, same for other ROMs, new save files are created. When i boot from Flashcart the old saves are there and used and when i boot into bootstrap the new saves (from bootstrap) are used.

What do you mean with replace saves? I don't know where to find the nds-bootstrap / twloader saves :3

Same location as the rom files.

 

[Timmyytim]

Damn that was too easy, sorry, i had a wood plate before my head or something like that. It's true and i know, why my old saves aren't used, nds-bootstrap uses *.nds.sav and not *.sav which i configured in my flashcart. So i have to rename or configure nds-bootstrap to make *.sav, but that's another thing, that doesn't really belong here. Thanks mates!

so the new version said, yet again, that it patched the auto update issue. It's still doing that. It just keeps updating. I'll turn it off for now, but it's really tedious to have to create and delete a file whenever there's an update.

 

[Giodude]

also, if anybody know's how, the "add game" feature takes me into ysmenu, where i can then load a game. But, i can't actually select that game directly through twloader. Does anybody know the cause of this?

Do you have "_nds/twloader.nds" from TWLoader.7z in the flashcard's SD root?

I didnt at first, but even with it there it still only shows settings and add games. How would i add a new game? Maybe im just not doing it right.

You forgot to launch "Add Games".
