I never tried Castlevania Portraits of Ruins. It probably doesn't support saves.

If you follow exactly what the guide says, you'll be safe from bricks, and all of your games on EmuNAND will be kept.

I guess a lot of games still don't work? chrono trigger, strange journeys, castlevania, etc stuck on white screen.

i was able to get a little futher on final fantasy 3 but ends up white screen (gets past the codec screen)

same with OSU! but gets stuck on a black screen after the earphone warning page

oh, at least the japanese text shows now

TWLoader v2.4.2

Improvements:

• Unicode banners are now handled correctly.
• Some more text are translated, in settings, and the "START" text in game select.

Bugfixes:

• Holding left or right too early can cause the frame/cursor in the menu to become misaligned with the game icons.
  
• Fixed a potential crash when launching a game.
• Launching a game from flashcard no longer takes you to bootstrap.
• TWLoader is no longer stuck on "Now checking TWLoader version..." on auto-update.

NOTE: The "Add games" option does not work for all flashcards. This will be fixed soon, including game loading from flashcard.

Try injecting FBI (with banner) to SysNAND H&S.

Would it be possible to make loading roms from a folder such as _ds or twloader work or is that just how bootstrap was written?

The Japanese text in the banner? Okay, that means the fonts do have Japanese characters. (I wasn't able to test this.)

There's some more Unicode-unsafe code that needs to be updated, including filenames. I have some ROMs whose filenames start with "Pokémon", and it shows up as "Pokémon". We'll also need to handle Unicode for translations if/when we get a full translation system set up.

I can make TWLoader load a ROM folder path stored in "settings.ini".

MARIO KART DS WORKS, BUT LOADING TIMES REMAIN LONG

 

[NightScript]

I can make TWLoader load a ROM folder path stored in "settings.ini".

Please do so...

 

[internetakias]

So I tried to use the "Add Games" option but all it did was boot up the game I had last launched with the Forwarder. Help or is my R4i SDHC Dual Core not supported?

Update the flashcard pack.

 

[internetakias]

You forgot to update the flashcard pack?

Guess I did. By the way, I noticed that the updater doesn't download files contained in the latest .zip version like "loadcard_dstt.nds". Could you fix that? Thanks.

That sounds good, I would rather have all the files in one folder instead of spread everywhere. Thanks again for all of your hard work with this and the bootstrap project!

 

[Gimzie]

I find it really annoying how Auto Update is always broken. For some things, I don't even know if you people test your own releases before releasing them to the public!

If it takes this long to fix Auto Update, just remove it altogether until its tested and confirmed to be working. Please.

 

[Link_of_Hyrule]

@Robz8 can we get twl to show the installed version of the bootstrap using git commit ID as well as the available updates commit ID?

Also, how does the whole g a runner thing work? Can I run GBA roms from a folder the same way NDS games work?

As for the _nds I wish we could just have all that stuff in the roms folder maybe. Having multiple folders in the root of my sd card seems pointless.

 

[internetakias]

The pop up for updating the official bootstrap loses its white background as soon as it stops moving, FYI.

I agree with this partially. I also don't see why the forwarder still needs to read the ntr_forwarder.ini from the "nds" folder when nothing else uses it anymore.
