yeah kinda ive used before in some little school projects

as for directories i was told just to ctrl+c ctrl +v the path i needed :D
Hmm, to make things simple, put this in Notepad:
Code:
make
pause
Save it as a .bat file in the folder with "Makefile".
After doing the image edits, run the .bat file.

Hi guys.
Sorry, i have 4 consoles (cfw Luma): 2 New 2DS XL and 2 Old 3DS XL.
I installed TWiLight Menu ++ in the 2 New 2DS XL and everything works perfectly! Compliments!
But now i have a problem with the Old 3DS XL, i did the same procedure but when i launch TWL Menu the console freezes on a black screen. I have everything updated as in the other 2 consoles (Luma, Sys nand , TWLMenu, FBI...all)
How can I proceed?
Thanks you very much for helping.


everything ok I solved it with TWLfix !! Sorry for the inconvenience :P

v15.0.0: 3rd Anniversary release!

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++.

Includes nds-bootstrap v0.35.0.

What's new?
  • Implemented the 12-hour clock to other themes beside Wood UI!
  • Ported NDS menu font to R4 theme!
  • R4 theme: Added the date in the menu.
  • Auto-enabled `Save FAT table cache` for first time users with SD card of 32GB or less.
  • Heap Shrink has been removed for DS-mode flashcard users!
  • (@Pk11) DSi/3DS/Saturn/HBL themes: Changed battery/volume/date images to `.png` files.
  • Added AP-fix for Russian translation of GTA: Chinatown Wars.
  • DSi, DSiWarehax: During a soft-reset event, you can hold B to exit the game.
Bug fixes
  • Tried to fix widescreen mode not activating for some users.
  • Fixed Unlaunch.dsi being misdetected as a retail game.
  • These games will now work with `Heap Shrink` set to `Auto`:
    • Band Hero
    • Guitar Hero: On Tour
    • Guitar Hero: On Tour: Decades
    • Guitar Hero: On Tour: Modern Hits
  • R4 theme: Fixed MasterSystem/GameGear ROMs not launching, with RAM option set.
  • DSi theme: Removed the manual icon to fix an unexpected bug where the small dots on the bottom would be overwritten.
  • Further improvements to overall app stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.

You're very welcome!
Also TWLoader was only for 3DS consoles.

Unfortunately, the only way to fix this, is to rework how nds-bootstrap reads data from the SD card, in order to cut down on latency.

The DSTWO isn't compatible, unfortunately.

So, I'm having trouble with it right now.
Basically, everything is in 16:10 and no matter what I do, I can't change it back to 4:3. Even the menus in Twilightmenu++ are in 16:10 and even games that don't support 16:10 are in said ratio If you're wondering, the setting for Aspect ratio in TwilightMenu++ is set to fullscreen (4:3) and even when I force a game to be in 4:3 in the per-game setting doesn't change a thing.
Please help me.

What version of TWLMenu++ are you using?
If it's v15.0.0, just delete "TwlBg.cxi" at "sd:/luma/sysmodules/".
If you're still having the same issue, delete the TWiLight Menu++ titles in FBI, then install the CIAs using FBI.

So, I can play DS games just fine for the most part, which is great by itself, but there's a weird quirk about the touchscreen: When the charger is NOT connected, it works perfectly, but when it IS connected, it gets really wobbly and keeps constantly clicking even when my stylus is completely still.

Any idea of what that could be or if there's any fix? I can still play games but it's certainly not good for long play sessions.

Not sure if it could be of any help, but my charger has a bit of a bad connection, I have to leave it in certain position for charging, I wonder if the bad connection has anything to do with it or not, the touch works very well for proper 3DS games, it's just the DS games with Twlight Menu that are showing this quirk.
