Homebrew [Discontinued] TWLoader - CTR-mode NDS app

[duffmmann]

I didn't spend all that time looking for a decent card seller and saving my money to buy a card just for it to be made redundant lol

Think i'll stick to my Acekard 2i. Does bug me tho that my flash card icon is grean with a horse, I hate green lol Doesn't look good for a 37 year old man with a horse as an icon

Be nice to change the icon

I don't think it's redundant, by using a flashcard, you effectively get to use 2 sd cards for storing data at the same time, one for all your DS games, one for everything else.

power play pool works from this using lasted bootstrap plays perfect only glitches are on bottom screen and no glitches with sound things that don't work though is multiplayer single cart play it gets stuck on nintedo screen on other 3ds multi card play gets communication error and saves don't work of course but other then that it plays perfect. note: you have to have no card in the slot or the game won't boot though idk why

This is the thread you're looking for https://gbatemp.net/threads/nds-forwarder-cias-for-your-home-menu.426174/ make sure you have the two .ini files from the op if it doesn't work after that idk what to tell you because if you're using all the newest versions it should work fine at least as far as forwarding. The nds-bootstrap doesn't really work for much of anything yet. Honestly, you should just wait until release.

some games already work with it minus save and multiplayer and some slowdowns

...I keep trying to make NeoDS work with TWLoader, even following settings, like using NTR and TWL mode, locking and unlocking the ARM9 "thingie", and setting the Console Output to Off, On and On (Debug). It always ends in a half white screen (Top screen is white, but bottom is black). I just tried with a version I had in my flashcard (that works), and also tried one downloaded from a gbatemp topic. Anyone can help me with this? I used the latest version of TWLoader.

Hey. I got it to work with my Acekard 2i using a forwarder. Gateway blue card is a big no no. Still doesn't work from the loader itself but I hardly care about that. Thanks for your help!

My gateway blue card works just fine, in fact if my 3ds itself doesn't detect the card on first boot, I launch TWLoader and the card shows up there and boots to roms just fine. Maybe it depends on which 1 of the 3 versions of blue card you got.

Sorry if this was mentioned somewhere earlier or asked before, but how was the DS(i) Bootscreen recreated?
Is this code that generates the animation? Or is this some video / gif / whatever that's playing?

It looks like a video. Or rather, a series of bitmaps.

Ah ok thank you
I thought with all the effort going into getting NDS ROMs to run of the SD card, they go and extract that animation from the DS(i) BIOS

Sounds fun and all, but maybe a bit more work

@Robz8 so suddenly twloader is crashing and and rebooting the system when opening, also reinstalling both cias did not remove the issue, strange thing

In the even that I want to delete this where would I go to delete the TWLoader side cia as well?

Should be deleted using fbi.

The game have to be on the flashcard's microSD for now. TWLoader can't boot retail DS games for now.

Random question, is the twlapp.cia in the download the regular twl firm?

Uhh, to start, I know that TWLoader can't run (at this exact moment for now) retail games, and NeoDS is a HOMEBREW game (specifically a NeoGeo emulator). And apparently there are some people who could get it to work, but I can't. Anyone can help with this?

wow ds games launching from the sdcard came "sooner" than i expected lol, guess i will still use the flashcart as it saves me about 4gb on the memory card
