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

[jonothan.stevens]

I'm honestly thinking about giving them out as gifts. DSi / DSi LL units are cheap on eBay, and SD cards are dirt cheap now too. Who wouldn't like to get a refurbed DSi LL loaded up with games for their b-day / Christmas?

@Robz8 , is it enough to overwrite twilight menu++ when updating or even using the twilight menu updater cia? or will that cause problems? I don't have to delete everything and start over fresh each time, do I? I don't want to lose my settings or artwork.

Yes, it's enough to just overwrite when updating.

I am totally confused by this new layout. how do I get to folder/game selection?

Press B, if in the DS menu.

 

[godreborn]

Update nds-bootstrap as well.

still get dldi error with gb games, and the gba games go to a black screen.

Make sure "boot.nds" is the one from TWLMenu++.

and the gba games go to a black screen.

Which games. Do they show the GBA BIOS screen?

 

[godreborn]

I tried vania aria of sorrow and final fantasy 1 and 2 dawn of souls. I'm updating through the cia now, maybe something didn't transfer over.

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

I've fixed the dldi error, but gba is still going to a black screen.

[godreborn]

yes, it closes, then it's just black.

 

[RocketRobz]

idk, but your ROMs could be corrupted.
Some of those are compatible, afaik
Also, please post in the GBARunner2 thread for GBARunner2 bugs/issues.

 

[godreborn]

I'm trying a clean install by deleting everything. I had quite a number of bootstrap files.

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

I found the problem. it doesn't like the gba logo being turned off. it was getting stuck with it set up that way. gba now works.

 

[godreborn]

I found another bug. if you exit out of the gb game twice or possibly 2 different games, it freezes.

Hello.

Thank you very much for your free Update.

Everything is working fine on the

New 3DS XL - Reset works in 30 of 30 Cases on a Row.
DSi (XL) - Also everthing ok.


Flashcard - unfortunately many Games are no longer working now (for Example New Super Mario) - they stay now on 2 White Screens.
The Reset is not working (maybe that is normal on the Flashcard ?)
Is there Something I have to delete ?

Thank you for your Advises.

Robz, you are a freaking savior to this homebrew community. You implemented the things people (including myself) requested and I cannot wait to try this out. *squee*

 

[Plasmaster09]

The update works, and so does soft reset! All hail @Robz8!
Only problem is that soft resetting (and booting in general, at least for Pokemon Black 2) is rather slow. I turned off the improvement settings- anything else I should change for faster booting if possible?
Edit: I'm using a DSi XL. I have literally no idea how this may or may not work on a 3ds-family system, so...

 

[Enmanuel510]

The soft reset does not work on my old 3ds. When I select the mini-games it goes to the 3ds menu. I tried to delete the TW programs from the system and re-download them, but nothing happened ...
