It freezes due to AP measures.
I did read its compatibility description, mentioning freezing.

Is that a guaranteed freeze, though?
The description says it "might" freeze.

If it's a guaranteed freeze -- maybe my opinion is unreasonable, but I think it maybe shouldn't be listed as a blue title ("works with few problems").

I believe you could patch the ROM to remove the AP measure.

Use the latest official Luma, if you're using a nightly build.
I've heard the nightlies has issues with some apps.
I do, i really have no clue why that is turning out like this. TWloader was working fine, i remember playing Pokemon Pearl with it.
I used the latest Lumaupdater that fixes the GitHub TLS issues, chose Stable version, even told me i already had a Stable version installed.

Hi @Robz8
Thanks for this great piece of software!
I'm having a lil' trouble getting FlashCard Forwarding to work for my DSTwo flashcard (with a 32 GB SanDisk SDCard inside).

This is what I've done:
  • I installed the most recent version of TWLoader (6.6.4) according to the "Install From Scratch"-Guide on the GitHub-Repo's Wiki
  • I extracted the "DS Game Forwarder pack (SC DSTWO).7z" to the proper places:
    • The contents of "for 3DS SD card" to my 3DSes SDCard
    • The contents of "for Slot-1 microSD" to my DSTWo Flashcard's SDCard
  • I extracted the flashcard-files from the most recent TWLoader.7z (6.6.4)
    • The contents of "/flashcardsdroot (all)" to my DSTWo Flashcard's SDCard
    • Sadly I couldn't find a folder for DSTwo inside the "/flashcardsdroot ((use with contents from -all- ) DSTT, R4i Gold, R4i-SDHC, SC DSONE)"-folder
      That's why I didn't copy any of them
When I open up "Add Game" I end up with a blank white screen.
Did I do anything wrong?
Is there something more I have to do?
Is it because it's a 32GB SDCard? YSMenu, for example, isn't working for SDCards with this size while DS_GAME does.

Thanks for your help in advance

//Edit:
I totally forgot to mention:
The white screen appears right after the healthy message (with "Show Boot Screen" set to "After launching a ROM")

//Edit2:
@Zaiphon
Since you said you're using the most recent version of Luma I assume you're booting Luma using boot9strap.
Try performing a b9s-upgrade using this guide: hxxps://3ds.hacks.guide/updating-b9s (sorry - I can't post hyperlinks yet)

Maybe this will help it.
Also check whether you're using Luma v9.0 - that's the version I use and TWLoader's working perfectly... well... expect the flashcard-thing, ya know XD

Similar problem here, trying to use my DSTWO its set in the settings, I did the tutorial for the file transfers however it only plays the games from the SD card, it refuses to use the DSTWO in anyway!
You have switch the game location to Flashcard.

Good point - It'd be more clear to have both, the Flashcard's and the SDCard's Backups in one view
@Robz8 would you mind me opening an issue 'bout this?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

@DoJo_Master make sure you're using the default (DSi Menu) Theme and you're in the main menu where you can see all ROMs on your SDCard
Press start and you see some options related to the DSi Theme
One of them allows you to change whether to display ROMs located on your SD-Card or ROMs located on your Flashcard.

Thank you so much! Progress! Now I see a white screen when I press "add from flashcard", most likely some settings issues I have to fix

EDIT: ITS WORKING!!!!! YES! Thank you for the help

I couldn't boot Flashcard-ROMs anymore today and got the white screen again.
I could fix it by enabling "Reset Slot-1"
Question:
What does this option actually do?

I managed to get GBArunner2 running, but when I try to save it gives me an in-game error message (tested on Shining Soul II)

Does anybody know why thats happening? Is it because the ROM's not SRAM patched?
