Homebrew [DS(i)/3DS] TWiLight Menu++ - GUI for DS(i) games, and DS(i) Menu replacement

[RocketRobz]

Is it possible to run the black 2 randomizer on this. I have just updated to the latest and AP patched my . nds, but it still hangs at white screen?

Make sure you're running the game in DS mode, and not in DSi mode (regular or forced).

Here’s is a REAL challenge. Using the twilight menu to emulate a ds rumble pak and stream the dsi to a pc to be able to use a rumble game pad?

Hey, I just changed the profile name on the DSi settings after installing twilightmenu, but the name that shows on the top left on twilightmenu is the old one. Any way to solve that? Thanks!

Hello.

Thats why you have changed it AFTER the NAND Backup.The CFW/TWiLight Menu uses your Nand Backup for the System Launcher.You have to tell TWiLight in the settings to boot in SD NAND Launcher and there you can change it.

TWiLight Menu:

Settings (not System Menu)!
- Misc. Settings
- change to SysNAND Launcher 000000007.app .
- scroll down to Standard Launcher
- change to System Menu.
- exit with B.
Turn your DSI OFF/ON otherwise you come again to the original DSi Launcher.

Simply to differentiate:

Original DSi Launcher - NO SOUND
SD Nand DSi Launcher - SOUND

Reminder for all.
Here is a wonderfull tool to provide automatic HiyaCFW and TWiligtMenu++ install.

If you expirience some problems with HiyaCFW or TWilightMenu++, then try to provide fresh install.
Many problems will be solved at once.

When I do this, I get "An error has occurred..." screen. My 2GB SD card didn't work, so I had to use a 4GB SDHC card, which gives me that error if I don't use TWiLight. Any way to circumvent this?

If it's not simple to change, I'll redo the process or just leave it as it is. I have hit enough walls before achieving success.

No.

I can´t explain,but for my DSi´s a 16GB SD Card worked.I don´t know on what it depends.
Robz8 said CLEARY it don´t work on greater than 2 GB Cards.Therefor there is no solution.

It´s normal the slow time to start the system? And it opens DSi screen twice before load the menu.

@Flicker Are you starting System Settings from TWLMenu++ settings?

Hey guys.

I have been looking for a way to play DS games on my 3DS (CFW) and apparently this is the best way.

I am looking at the first page and I am already confused by step 1 - "In the 7z file, extract the "_nds" folder from both the 7z root and the "DSi&3DS - SD card users" folder, to the SD Card root. Merge folders, when asked to."

What exactly does this mean? If I move the _nds folder onto my SD card and then move a second _nds folder across, its not going to merge, it will replace the first folder I move.

Maybe I am being stupid here but could anyone explain the best way to get this app on my 3DS.

Thank you.

 

[Alexander1970]

Hello.

Yes BOTH folders.

Look inside the second _NDS Folder and you know why.

Thanks for the response.

But step 1 does not say to extract the "DSi&3DS - SD card users" folder to my SD card. It tells me to extract BOTH _nds folders to my SD card root. Hence I am saying if I do that then one folder will overwrite the other and not merge it.

Are you telling me that I need to copy the _nds folder and the DSI&3DS - SD card users folder over to my SD root? I understand that the DSI&3DS folder contains a sub folder called _nds but that is not what the instructions are telling me to do - its quite confusing.

 

[Alexander1970]

NO only the _NDS Folders.

 

[Flicker]

@Flicker Are you starting System Settings from TWLMenu++ settings?

Yes, and from unlaunch. Same results. I'll redo the process, I think.

 

[pauLAW]

NO only the _NDS Folders.

haha - yeah so how... one folder will just overwrite the other. I guess I'll just take the content from both folders and put them all into one _NDS folder on the SD
root

EDIT - I have figured out what to do, I have the app running now. Thank you.

Where do I put the GBA BIOs? And what do I rename it?

1.In the Root of your SD Card.

GBARunner2 is not an emulator in conventional mind.
Please read a little here about it:
