I haven't updated Java in a while. How do I check?What version of Java do you have? should be the latest version of 8 update 231
If you're running windows then just look for "configure java" and look at about.I haven't updated Java in a while. How do I check?
I've played HeartGold and SoulSilver for hours without encountering any crashes. Maybe once the character sprite started glitching right after saving, but that's it.I used this program to add pokemon heartgold to my 3ds, but there are some issues.
Soft resetting will crash the 3ds
Certain scenarios cause the game to softlock
Game freezes completely randomly
I’m not sure if this is an error on my part or if heartgold isnt meant to be played this way but any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Entering trainer battles and being spotted are the main ones. After entering the battle, the pokeballs indicating how many each trainer has dont show up and the game softlocks. The other is when a trainer spots me but doesnt walk up to me or a textbox doesnt show up, then the game softlocks, and this is all usually after a few minutes of playing. I save before every battle though because im a sore loser so the softlocks arent a big deal, its just annoying to reboot.I've played HeartGold and SoulSilver for hours without encountering any crashes.

What scenerios softlocks your 3ds?
Whether HeartGold is meant to be played this way is a bit philosophical. I guess it was meant to be played on a cartridge on a DS/DSi.
Hmm I see. Interesting. As I said I've never had any softlocks like that. Even when the sprite was glitching I had no problem moving around. Are you using latest stable version of ndsbootstrap 0.28.1? You could try to replace all your Twilight files and sd card forwarder files.Entering trainer battles and being spotted are the main ones.

Also it almost sounds like you're being hit with the Anti-piracy stuff so maybe your rom isn't AP patched automatically for some reason. You might wanna check your rom up against the nointro checksums online to see if it's a good dump.
Are you using any cheats or is it a romhack?
I see. I believe the latest cia forwarder maker pack has the latest stable ndsbootstrap but that would anyways be the first thing I would check. The only way I can think of is either to see if any of the .inis on your sd card under _nds has this info in them, if not you can install twilightmenu++ and see the version in settings. You don't need an already patched game if your rom is good.i cant remember which version of nds bootstrap im using and i dont know how to check it, and my version of heartgold is just the base game. Ill see if i can find a AP free version though.
Thank you, i’ll be sure to try this later. I’ll let you know what happens.I see.

Here is a list of good and bad dumps and their checksums. Use a checksum program(generator to compare your rom with these. 7z calculates checksums.

Great tool! Thank you!
Is there a way to replace The icon and banner / 3d model that are shown in the 3DS' menu?
Try searching through the thread since I remember someone posting that they figured out how to do it.Alright, after updating JAVA on my X64 Win7 oldy pc it works.
Great Tool.
Question though:
Is it possible to boot into widescreengames without having to reset the to the Twilight menu loader ?
(Maybe some option I have not yet figured out ?)
Great detective work! In case you manage to get this to work OP should consider threadmarking this post.*Phew*... what a goosechase... (though I could limit the page number by searching from the 08/2018 onward only)

Hi guys... just wanna share something ive found a way on how to make your forwader games play on widescreen on 3ds.... first you need to have twilight menu with widescreen active... then on TWLmenu settings turn on last played rom on startup, then play any game on widescreen then exit.... after that go to fbi>titles> then delete twilight menu++ Last run rom.... then the next time you go to twilight menu it will crash or glitch... the next time you boot your twilight menu gui it will be on widescreen and also all your forwarder nds games also your nds cart games will be widescreen... but not all games will boot some will get the screen software closed...ive try it on my 3 3ds and all the same result.... just dont blame me if anything goes wrong on your 3ds ... sorry for my bad english... thanks
