Uninstalled TwlBg.cxi from sysmodules, disabled the external FIRMs. Game works perfectly fine in twilight menu like before i installed the patcher but my forwarded game has some serious lag, flickering and stuttering. Any idea what i might be missing to revert all changes? Game is Pokemon Black 2 on a 3DS XL

EDIT: Fixed, had to hold Y when starting my forwarded game and change the CPU speed to 133MHz, curious as to why this was not needed when i played before installing TWPatcher.

EDIT 2: Problems persist on the forwarded version, I am unable to properly see the evolution process ok pokemons, the sprite before and after evolution is missing. The animation works. Did not have this issue before and it does not happen when playing through twilight.

It's possible the forwarder is using a different build of nds-bootstrap. In TWLMenu++ Settings and the per-game settings menu (the latter which is opened by pressing Y while in the ROM listing), what is the "Bootstrap" setting set to?

It is set to Default which uses the Release version (latest release from uni updater). Running it in Default and Release produces the same results. It seems that the problems relating to the evolution glitch which i previously mentioned now also occurs when launching through Twilight menu.

So far i've tried removing _nds/nds-bootstrap, _nds/ntr-forwarder and _nds/TWiLightMenu and reinstalling those fresh. Issues persist. Kind of at a loss as to what I might be missing.
Does the patcher do any changes outside of the payload file in Luma?

The issue you're having is (I'm pretty sure) not related to the patcher, and sounds like it's caused by either a corrupt ROM or you have a screen color filter and/or DS Phat colors enabled.
Open TWLMenu++ Settings, and make sure the "Screen Color Filter" setting is set to "Default". Then open the per-game settings menu, and make sure "DS Phat Colors" is set to either "Default" or "Off".

Well now I can't help but feel like an idiot. Somewhere along the way i seem to have accidentally turned on screen filters in TWLMenu++, setting them to default solved all my issues.

Happy to know that it wasn't caused by TWPatcher.

Thank you for the help, now I can enjoy using redshift to improve the colors.
