    I was thinking about how much I enjoy sorting my archives. It's a great feeling looking at hundreds of files in a clean archive. I've finally gotten all of my archives to the point where you can find anything in a few seconds. Kinda funny considering how I'm a complete slob in real life.

    I've had two unread PMs for months. The unread icon has just become a part of the UI at this point. Shout out to the two unintentionally ignored people who have made my experience special.

    I love fixing wikis with DSi dev info and citing my own pages. Source? I made it the fuck up.

    Same. I love to operate a wiki providing the latest info on modding, without leaving it all behind.

    yeah that is true. i like to visit Wiki and interact with other editors so we can enjoy reading up-to-date and correct information. Make sure to leave nasty comment's on your nemesis' Talk page too !!!!

    Random thought, why does TwlNmenu have an option to delete private save data when NandFiler exists? It seems redundant to me, but if you still want to have an option for private then why not public too?

    did you send a blank cart to someone to have something written to it?

    I traded for it with the intention of having a friend write to it. Even though it isn't legit I just really really really want a Nitro EVA cart to go with my TWL EVA. Having both running in a display case would look awesome, plus there is a practical use for the EVA carts.

    Not blank, but I made sure to dump and redump everything before hand (EA Playground on hidden palace) so I figure there's no harm done.

    If someone has TwlSDK 5.0 then please get in touch.

    Nope, thanks though. The 5.0s in that archive are just internal patches for 5.0.

    At some point I might be able to build twl_wrapsdk and I think that is close to 5.0.

    As long as it's pre-5.1 cause I NEED TO COMPILE SYSTEMMENU_RED! I HAVE SACRIFICED TOO MUCH TIME TO BACK DOWN NOW!

    Maybe someone will upload them to TCRF.

    Does anyone here have any idea why the prototype home menus won't boot? I know TCRF shows an error but I can't even get that. I've installed to NAND on both dev (TwlNmenu) and retail hardware (NTM), but all I get is a white screen. I didn't see any issues in the source code and I recreated the TADs with the same maketad as TwlIPL uses. Anything I could try?

    Apparently so. But it's still weird that it works in no$gba, something doesn't add up.

    Although I do still have suspicions of modcrypt being off on retail with these apps, but I stopped investigating once I got frustrated with search engines (Bing, google, github, etc.) not finding tools I know exist to modify modcrypt and stuff.

    But why does WiFi start working???

    It slipped my mind until now but this was the only one aside from the unversioned copy that booted. It needed to be installed on a dev unit with TwlNmenu.

    This copy must have some older settings format because it corrupts/breaks the settings and triggers the setup.

    It white screens on retail but does enough to break settings there too.

    I'll dig through the source code for that version in the morning. I didn't think much of it until now.
    rvtr
    You want to build systemmenu_RED with an older TwlSDK, so you have to build the TwlIPL libraries, but in order to do that you need to build other libraries from twl_wrapsdk, which means you'll need to find NitroSDK 4.0 and a matching NitroSystem. I think this is dependency hell. And best of all I don't know if it'll do anything!

    My school board used to have the test website open to the public. I signed up to the test school mailing list and now I get fun test emails. Only problem is that they finally locked the site so I can't use the unsubscribe link lol (not that I'd want to)

    Not sure but I might've mentioned it before. I certainly do love complaining about things the board does...

    I got systemmenu_RED from the old TwlIPL to build! Now keep in mind I said build, not work. Everything looks fine but the SRLs just whitescreen. I'm gonna try a few things to see if I can get it working though.

    My pfp was cut off when I took the photo so I tried editing areas back in. I am pretty happy with how it turned out!

    You know how Twl SystemUpdater has TADs encrypted with a different key? It's the debugger key right after the DSi common key in ARM7. I love mysterious people just appearing out of nowhere and answering my questions.

    Not sure I can really share it here but it's easy enough to find.

    Another prototype settings! There's a lot more stuff if you view TwlIPL in git and look through the commit history.

    NandSweeper 2? I converted TwlToolsRED to git since I don't know my way around svn. I found 130ish deleted test SRLs. Most are CardRomHeaderChecker but I'm finding some other neat files in here. Full copy of mario kart, mic test, home menu, and a few copies of nintendo DSi sound. Gonna keep looking for more!

    I hate CardRomHeaderChecker so much. These two lists are for what is and isn't CardRomHeaderChecker... yeah why did they have to have so many copies of the same program...
