[Discontinued] TWLoader - CTR-mode NDS app

on the contrary, i love pixels, ive always hated bilinear filtering, thats why im using retroarch for gb gba snes emus on the 3ds.

I CAN see what you mean about it having uneven pixels though like the image looking stretched wrongly in different areas.

is this impossible? maybe you can hack the TWL_Firm and just delete the filter

please excuse my naiveness to the scene,

EDIT (instead of making a new post) Thanks but i want the resolution the same without bilinear filtering, i wouldnt go so far to ask for the small screen pixel perfect mode.

Displaying the version of the unofficial bootstrap in the settings screen is broken somehow.
Things i noticed about the updater code:
https://github.com/Robz8/TWLoader/blob/master/gui/source/download.cpp#L545
this line starts with FILE*
that is for official bootstrap.
Further one the code is duplicated but this time there is no FILE*
https://github.com/Robz8/TWLoader/blob/master/gui/source/download.cpp#L596

The reason i think the problem lies here is because the files are there, but the result is always -1, so that gives me the impression it is failing to read the version file.

 

Again, as I say yesterday, it's working fine in my side so that's weird. Also, variable is declared so that's why on L596 there is no FILE*

 

can you apply my fix and send me the cia
https://github.com/Robz8/TWLoader/pull/217

 

Sorry but I closed it. If you declare twice the same variable, it won't compile at all

Also, TWloader read correctly the file. There is a problem about here
If you enable LOG you'll see I'm right and checkBoostrapVersion() is reading the file

 

maybe it works because logging is on

 

Why are you based on that??
If you don't know the problem, is better to no judge others work...

 

Just like this,why?

Also,if ahezard fix the cia problem (probably very soon,with the work in dkarmr46 branch), does the twlnand-side will always be needed?

 

I have the exact same problem as you with my Acekard 2i. Tried to reinstall, format SD card, tried release and unofficial bootstrap, I always get a white screen when trying to load the card, or when trying to "add games".

 

I've done this multiple times. Tried two different SD card.
I think there are multiple hardware revision of Acekard 2i.

 

I've tried again with the most recent release pack on github, followed the installation guide, reinstalled the TWL official titles, and I still have the same problem : white screen.
I also have a crash when leaving the settings menu ("An exception has occured : data abort"). Is there a way to add log output to help tracing the bug ?

 

The log file doesn't give any useful information

Spoiler: log.ini
