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

[RocketRobz]

I'm having trouble moving from my R4 to SD.
I'm able to launch games but I can't import save games.

Any help on locating TWL save file location or how to import my saves?

Thanks.

The saves go in the "saves" folder, which is in the same location as the ROMs.

I can't seem to find this question when I try so I'm going to ask at the risk as coming off as an asshole. Am I able to emulate the slot-2 enhancement function for games like dawn of sorrow and WarioWare D.I.Y. and if so where do I put the ROMs and do I need to name them the same as the DS romame like DraStic?

For Dawn of Sorrow at least, you just need to have the cart in the DS when you start a new game, so you could do that on an emulator that supports Slot-2 emulation (like Desmume on PC) and then transfer the save over to 3DS (you need to "Export Battery File" first if you're using Desmume), because Twilight Menu uses the same .sav file format as most DS flashcarts.

The saves go in the "saves" folder, which is in the same location as the ROMs.

Saves are correctly placed.
The issue was the ".nds" part in original save files. Solved now.

Do the box art have .png at the end?

 

[siocone]

Sure...

 

[RocketRobz]

Sure...

Are they placed in "sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/boxart/"?
If so, make sure box art is enabled in TWLMenu++ settings.

For Genesis/Mega Drive you have to use gen for example "Aerobiz.gen.png"

Maybe because it is an NTR Gamecard.

Hello.

ALL Covers has to be in this Folder:

_nds/TWiLightMenu/boxart/

If I may suggest please use this little but very handy Tool from @KirovAir

https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-twilightboxart-nds-gb-a-snes-nes-gg-boxart-downloader.548400/

It downloads all Covers (if your Roms are recognized correct) for you with the correct Size in the correct Folder.
If some are still missing you know then the correct Size.

Thank you.
