I just made a couple new skins for the DSi theme, Switch - Basic Dark and Switch - Basic Light:

I uploaded them to the twlmenu-extras repo so they can be downloaded from there or with the TWiLight Updater:

Anyone have an issue with Pokemon Platinum randomly freezing? Sometimes it freezes fast, sometimes it doesn't freeze at all. I have to turn the DS(i) off when this happens.
Is there a fix for this? And does this occur in other games? I know that Kirby superstar saga freezes sometimes on the menu, but that's all i know so far

The Platinum bug is related to RTC polling, which can sometimes glitch, due to loading from the SD card.
Also, the Kirby bug is just a bug in the game itself, and also happens on flashcards.

Does anyone know why my saves for Pokemon Black and Pokemon White 2 are not importing? The .sav and .nds have the same name and all of my other DS pokemon games work fine.

My R4 card works perfectly with RTC, is it something with Twilight Menu++? I know that Twilight Menu++ has differences from R4 cards, but is this one of them?

Thanks for adding simple themes like this, i really like it. But i see a problem with every theme that had black block for the game's icon (like the 3DS Black Theme), because if there's a DS/DSi icon that relies on the block's color to have white background; it will have a jumbled black color.
So i hope you can change it to something like this black to white box place1.png

hi everyone, I have a R4 SDHC Dual-Core with 8GB memory and I have a new 2ds xl

I was wondering if it is possible to install twilight-menu on this R4, I already tried to follow the guide:

I can not place the links of the guides

the first one remains on a white screen when loading the rom (pokemon soul silver)

the second guide does not start the twilight

Does anyone know how to run it from the R4 twilight menu?

Ah yeah, I forgot that some apps assume the transparent color will always be white, just updated it on twlmenu-extras to give apps a white background (and also fixed a couple other problems I noticed when testing it again)




In somewhat related news, the twlmenu-extras skins now have a UniStore for Universal-Updater, so that can be used for downloading skins too now. Simply scan this QR from the Select Unistore screen to add it:

Hello,
I currently have a Gateway which works great, except for nds games. Is TwilightMenu ++ an option for me or should I forget it?

Thanks,
Jeff

Looks like it doesn't work yet, Issue #415 on nds-bootstrap is about it

It could be the ROMs I've been downloading, but The World Ends with You crashes during the cutscene after the opening battle with ue frogs.
It's not your ROM. This happened to others as well.
Just switch the cache block size to 32KB in TWLMenu++ Settings.
