TWLoader v1.5.1

Additions:
  • Banner icons for games on SD card are now loaded from "sdmc:/_nds/twloader/bnricons".
  • Touch screen input.
Improvements/Bugfixes:
  • Files are now sorted alphabetically.
  • Banner icon/boxart is now loaded when the filename is the same as a game's filename, with ".png" added at the end (ex. SD card: game.nds.png, Flashcard: game.ini.png).

The following flashcards should now be supported. The packs are in the OP.
  • R4DS (Original Non-SDHC version)/ M3 Simply
  • R4iDSN/R4i Gold RTS
  • Acekard RPG

Re-extract the files in "sdroot" folder to the 3DS SD card root, and install "TWLoader - TWLNAND side.cia" that's in "sdmc:/_nds/twloader/cia/".

Looks like the NDS retail stuff.
Would be cool to get cheat support too but we'll see what he does. I'm getting excited but some what regret buying that flash card I just got now lol. Has he said any thing about progress of how it's going? I went on 3ds hacking discord but didn't see anything about it.

box art was working fine but icons were crashing the app, then suddenly even on version 1.5 if i have any photos in the box art or the icon folders the app crashes it needs to be empty so that i can view the "flashcart" section, still the same on 1.5.1, here are the files i'm using maybe something is wrong with them, all of these covers/icons were edited in paint

Version 1.5 and 1.5.1 both freeze about two seconds after TWLoader is started. This did not happen in older versions.

nitrografx (pc engine emulator) still not playing any games.

also, with more and more folders being created in sd root, do you think it would be at all possible to move the standard path to say, the 3ds folder?

I'm getting 'an error has occured, please power off the console' when trying to load a game from my flashcart. My cart is an R4i SDHC and i'm running al9h and Luma, what could be causing this?

Now ........crash 3ds when i push home button:huh:
When i use boxart and banner icon

It's due to too many icon/boxart image files being loaded at once, causing a memory leak. I'll try to fix the problem.

You overlooked Step 3 in the instructions.
This tool can it boot ysmenu.nds on dstwo ?
No.
Launch your DSTWO card directly. When a game loads, press L+R+START to go into a menu, and touch the square that's on the top-left. When the ROM selection menu loads, touch "Start", "Settings", and "AutorunRom". Touch "Turn off", and your DSTWO card should work normally.
