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

[godreborn]

examine the save with a hex editor. I had maybe two of my own personal saves that got corrupted. not sure how it happened, but in hex it was a just continuous sequence of F's.

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

btw, that wasn't the fault of twilight menu++. the saves were corrupt on the cartridges I ripped them from. 2 or 3 out of 100 or so saves.

And the save file has .sav, instead of .nds?
If so, is it in the "saves" folder?

All good figured it out I put it accidentally on the wrong saves folder

I see that from two versions ago, a widescreen and filtering option for 3DS users appeared in the settings menu. Are these working? Or are just placeholders until said features are functional? Because I see no effect when turned on (still I use Sono's patcher for filters).

Another question:
The automatic AP patching, like some flashcards make to the roms when loaded, will be implemented to this? Or is there something impeding it so we need to do the manual patching to roms? Anyway, thank you very much for this, it makes the 3DS a true all in one machine .

The screen size option was replaced with widescreen, and yes it will work, when the patcher with widescreen support is released and used.

It is currently unknown how to implement it.

Do you happen to know if playing the official carts fixs the crash problems? and also, is it possible to still execute cheats from the SD directory menu, ie, the dsi/r4/acekard themes, i am looking into purchasing some 2nd hand copies, because the crash issues on platinum and HGSS are getting beyond frustrating.

I haven't experienced any crashes, but I also haven't spent any real time playing the games. I was just concerned with getting my save file to load. I also haven't tried any cheats or themes, so I can't help you with any of your questions.

Every time when i open Twiligt Menu, after the Nintendo DSi screen it starts automatically with a NDS rom. I think my son touched anything on the options XD How to enter to the Twilight Menu options when i'm running a NDS game?

Hold B+SELECT in DSi screen.

Sorry, I'm not very expert, but do I need a DSiWare exploit even if I use the R4 flashcart instructions? I guess yes, considering I have a black screen when I try to launch the fake Konami game on Home screen.
Is there any simple tutorial for it?

No, you do not need a DSiWare exploit.

Is it possible to use custom 3ds themes in the twilight menu?

Oh I see, I suppose it is different than the method used in Flashcarts, I wish Yasu/Wood Goblin were here to help, they knew a lot regarding these sort of things, but they are gone unfortunately .

What do I need to do to make the app open at the startup? When I want to play, I have to do the 122 clicks on copy thing...

Using 8.5.1 TWLM++ and nds-bootstrap v0.21.2.

In Mugen no Frontier EXCEED whenever I hit save at a save point the game responds with the audio cue for selecting the option but then hangs. The default save file exists at sdroot\romfolder\saves (512KB) but clearly isn't being written to or loading (restarting the game there is no continue option, only new game) so it must not see the save file.

It is a .sav and it has the same name as the ROM.

The game is translation patched via xDeltaUI but the patched ROM works fine on R4 card (on my regular DS) or on windows and drastic emulator. Only issue is with saves on 3DS using SD.

TWPatch does not change how the updater and the app works.

when its Nintendo default its fine, but once i change it to say: sono's crisp (tweaked) thats when things get messy

i do more test. might be my setup.

 

[FuntimeHunter]

@Robz8 the super Metroid appears Nintendo logo , but after this i got a black screen

 

[FuntimeHunter]

The super Nintendo emulator does not work, the games I start, or they get the black screen or they appear the Nintendo logo and get black screen again. Help please.

 

[cloudropis]

I've been out of the loop for a long while.

I tried installing Twilight Menu ++ for the first time through its own updater, but as soon as I start it up I get greeted with this:

Spoiler

Any help?
For what it's worth, my system is still at 11.6.0-39E (with b9s) and Luma is probably a bit outdated, but I have no idea if that's what's causing issues.
