Hello, I used this app for a few months to play Advance Wars: Dual Strike, and it worked nearly perfectly with very little loading time, however as of the most recent update to both bootstrap and twloader, whenever I try booting the game, I get the usual white screen when I boot up but after a few seconds the screen turns black and the game never runs after that. In fact, none of my games work anymore. My SDCard is FAT32 with 32 kb cluster size, 64 GB capacity, O3DS on 11.4.0-37U with the latest version of Luma and B9S. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling TWLoader to no avail. When I checked the FAQ the black-screen errors are (supposed to be?) followed by a request to reboot, but I haven't gotten any of those. If anything it might be that I didn't install the side CIAs properly, but the only way I know to install a CIA is with FBI (Which is what I did), and I'm not entirely sure how to specifically install to SysNAND or EmuNAND.

Also thank you for continuing to develop and work on this application.

Compatibility for Advance Wars: Dual Strike is currently broken.

Does the American version of prime hunters work, or do I have to get a Japanese rom? The USA version throws a white screen 5.5.1. yes I waited 5 minutes.

Animal Crossing: Wild World and New Super Mario Bros. isn't working. Both gave me a white screen, when I tested them a few days ago.

Finally got NSMB working but it seems to take longer than usual just to go from screen to screen and when selecting a stage.

Also, I get crackling sound in stage 1-2, similar to some of the injected SNES VC ROMs. However, it goes away, after about 2-5 minutes.

That can be fixed by setting sound to Stereo in the game's option screen.

What is Mario Kart DS Donor? its normal rom to find in google?
Either that or you can dump it's ROM off the cart.

Which ROMs aren't compatible? Is there a list so I can deleted ones that aren't?

Also, still a damn white screen on Animal Crossing: Wild World!

The list is in the first post.
Wow, the list is pretty low! I can't even get AC:WW to work. I just keep getting a white screen and that one is even supported. I can still return to the 3DS home menu, though.

Is there a better one out there that has a much higher compatibility? I hate using my cartridges and the 3DS never seems to read them, until maybe after 3-4 attempts. The one I have for DSi (DSonei) only works on my DSi XL. If I try to insert the flashcart into my N3DS, it almost gets stuck on the card slot. This was never a problem on my O3DS.

Yeah, same here. Might be because of a different ROM version.

It's the only compatibility list there is, and it's made by me too.
