I can't seem to reproduce any crashing in TWLoader. (Using a New 3DS XL.) Tested deleting settings, boxart, and banner icon directories, and it still works for me...

EDIT: Removing the 'roms' directory caused an ARM11 prefetch abort. Now I'm getting somewhere.

Regarding the BoxArt:

Which is just untrue ;)

I deleted everything related to TWLoader and it still crashes. Christ.

This may be silly to ask but you're using the build Robz8 released, right? Not your own or anything like that?

@GerbilSoft what happend with top border option? I missed it :cry:
It's in the "Start" options now. Press Start to adjust game location, box art, and top border, and start GBARunner2.

I narrowed down the problem to an issue caused by missing files. As a workaround, create the following directories:
  • sdmc:/roms/nds
  • sdmc:/roms/flashcard/nds
In the first directory, put at least one NDS ROM image.
In the second directory, put at least one INI file, e.g. Workaround.ini. The INI file should look something like this:
Code:
[FLASHCARD-ROM]
NDS_PATH = Games/New Super Mario Bros..nds
TID = A2DE01

I'm submitting a PR that should fix this problem without doing the aforementioned workaround.

Crashed on my O3DSXL with a flashcard inserted. Edited .ini to enable forwarder and it doesn't crash anymore

Just for your info, I don't have any .ini file and is not crashing
I'm not sure if both flashcard and non-flashcard files are needed, but the crash appeared if I had the entire roms/ directory empty. It might crash if you switch to flashcard mode, exit, and then start TWLoader again, since it'll be starting in flashcard mode immediately.

Yes, you're right.
I'll continue updating the wiki. I can merge your PR and edit release with corrections but dunno if Robs8 might bother or not :/

Edit: wiki is now updated! If you find an error (maybe my english grammar ^^" ) let me now ;)

@Robz8 The new update works fine on my end, had to change some paths due to moving my roms folder to the twloader folder, saving and rom loading both still work without any crashing.
