I'm using a DSTT and this worked for me as well. But I can only run the games by going through add games, they aren't added to the TWLoader menu for me to select when I open up TWloader
Are the .ini files saved in "sd:/roms/flashcard/nds/"?

I have a dstwo card, that i get an error screen when i try to just boot from the 3ds main screen(it works on my old NDS) i have firmware 11.3 so i presume somethings up and it's been blocked, When i try to add game with it thru TWloader it just goes black, I've follow the instructions but i just can't get it to work, Im presuming it's because the card wont boot anymore normally. Using Luma etc


EDIT :- Even trying to boot from SD card i get a black screen on known good roms (super mario 64 DS) I've looked at the black screen fix thing in Luma and i have no SVCbreak , Not really sure what to do now!

Try the black screen fix in the FAQs.

So, I have a little problem. I think TWLoader broke my luma and emunand.
I left my 3DS on while looking up missing covers for my roms i edited them down and made their names the necessary names for the games, as i did this my 3DS had TWLoader open as reference material to which game covers were missing. after i was done i wanted to turn my 3DS off, i went into the Home Menu ended the application and it froze. I shutdown my 3DS and transferred the covers over. I put the SD Card back into my 3DS and started it. It went through the normal procedure but after the red bottom screen the screens were just black. I tried the "I get a black screen on boot" fix from the Luma3DS wiki but i didn't get any indication of an svcBreak in the loader process because there was no error display. I copied the loader.cxi into the sysmodules folder in Luma but it still doesn't work. Before this i used the "I get an auto-shutdown with GBA/DS/DSiWare games" fix but i restarted a few times after that and it worked just fine. Also in TWLoader all the games froze on a White screen after the Nintendo DS Logo. I don't know what to do so if you can please help me.

TWLoader did not break your Luma or EmuNAND. If you're using MenuHax, it's normal for Luma to not start EmuNAND sometimes.

The current version of TWLoader does not start the official release bootstrap for some reason. In TWLoader settings, update the unofficial bootstrap, then set Bootstrap to unofficial.

It's just a bit weird because i tried to start it about 20 times and it didn't work

My settings are ARM9 CPU Speed 133mhz, VRAM boost is on, bootscreen is on DS but it uses the DSi bootscreen and DSi uses no bootscreen, Reset slot-1 is on, Console output is on, Lock ARM9 SCFG_EXT is off and Bootstrap is unofficial (yes i updated the unofficial bootstrap) and it still gets stuck on a white screen. Also the console output gives me "Please insert a Cartridge..." is that normal?

Maybe that is related about the PR's trying to get TWLoader works out-of-the-box with pre-configured parameters

No. You have an outdated TWLNAND side.
