Homebrew [DS(i)/3DS] TWiLight Menu++ - GUI for DS(i) games, and DS(i) Menu replacement

[DSoryu]

Replaced Super Mario 64 DS, and it seems to launch now... Hmm...

Well then, glad it worked , now I highly recommend to do a backup and reformat your card to avoid future errors.

Check if your roms are clean using the same tool, or you can use NDS Header Tool 2 to review if your dumps have no conflicting issues. I have all of these you mentioned working but I can't tell about "Korg 101 Music Workstation", I haven't tested it yet.
Also make sure that you have your apfix folder up to date, fellow @retrogamefan has been making a lot of these lately and he released a patch for that game a few pages back.

On which hardware do you have them working?

Make sure it's being run in DS mode.

I'm now curious because I had the exact same issue that SM64DS stopped working, then I replaced the ROM and it started working again.

well, status update
replaced all the roms
most of them work now, but Super Mario 64 DS hangs at a white screen again
and none of this started happening until I updated TWLMenu++
Nothing else has gone wrong on my 3DS and the ROM filesizes before I replaced them hadn't changed, so I don't believe the issue was corruption...

I never got a white screen with Super Mario 64 DS.
How long was the white screen shown? If longer than a minute, then delete the .bin files for the ROM in "sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap/fatTableCache/" and "patchOffsetCache".

The white screen persists until I quit to the HOME Menu. Deleted the contents of those folders, but the white screen still persists.

See if the ROM on the SD card works in an emulator for PC.
If it works there, then idk what's wrong.

The ROM works in No$GBA without issues...
I could try to downgrade TWLMenu++, I recall all of my games worked with a version prior to the versions where auto-AP patching was introduced...

What theme are you using in TWLMenu++?

 

[PrincessLillie]

What theme are you using in TWLMenu++?

DSi Menu Dark.

 

[RocketRobz]

DSi Menu Dark.

Did the nds-bootstrap logo appear, after deleting the .bin files?
If not, then your nds-bootstrap might be bugged somehow.

Nope, nds-bootstrap logo didn't appear...

Try the latest nds-bootstrap nightly then.

Still nothing. It doesn't even reboot into widescreen mode.

 

[RocketRobz]

Still nothing. It doesn't even reboot into widescreen mode.

So it fails to boot nds-bootstrap as well.
Disable "Update recently played list" in TWLMenu++ settings.

Once again, no progress.

 

[RocketRobz]

Try deleting both "settings.ini" at "sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/" and "nds-bootstrap.ini" at "sd:/_nds/".

 

[PrincessLillie]

Try deleting both "settings.ini" at "sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/" and "nds-bootstrap.ini" at "sd:/_nds/".

Still nothing. Something tells me this is an issue with TWLMenu++ itself and not nds-bootstrap or my settings.
