I just found out that the subfolders in the roms folder can only display at most 40 games on the twilight menu. if i have more than 40 games on the sd card, it won't show past the 40th game.

is there a way to bypass this so i can see all the games and play them? or is this the limit?

I hope that helps you.

yes, shouders do the trick. but even so, my advise is to not put so many roms in a single folder. for example: in gba folder, put roms in diferent subfolders, like folder A, folder B etc. to many roms in a single folder can slow down or even freeze the console (or at least it seems). my mistake was put a whole set of master system roms in a single folder lol

Hello.

Please remane your SNES Roms with the Extension .sfc to .smc and all is good.

Thank you.

Tried to boot a game I have played successfully before after exiting another via the L+R+down+B shortcut, and my entire NDS saves folder was deleted and replaced with the contents of /_nds/TWiLightMenu/. The original /_nds/TWiLightMenu/ directory was still there, but corrupted.

I had a backup of the only save that I really cared about, but it was a few days out of date. Only slightly pissed.

Any clue what could have caused that?

after many tries the cover stuff finally runs, except for 2 covers that I just can't get to work.

I just do not understand.
I loaded several versions of the covers, which I used with Photoshop, like all the other covers, to bring them to the SNES size 158x115 and 72dpi. saved as png just as the rom and packed in the boxart folder. I was able to fix other covers that had errors. But the two of them I can do what I want, it doesn't work.

I have attached the error as well as the two covers and also 2 pictures before and after the roms that you can see that everything else works without problems

Sounds like your SD card has errors.
Please run a check on it.

I ran f3write and f3read before using the SD as my 3DS's card, there were no errors so I'm fairly sure the card itself is legit.
I ran fsck on it after the corruption and it said that the dirty bit was set (which to my knowledge is a problem with unmounting it on the computer; I always make sure to unmount safely), and that the files in the original TWL directory were corrupt, deleting them.
It doesn't seem like there is a way to get the lost files back, but I'm not too upset about that.
I think it may have been bad luck on my part, and another reminder to keep more backups.

There are recovery tools around.

I have now hacked 2 systems.
A 3ds XL and a new2dsXL.
the latest versions run on both. TWlLight ++ also current on both.

is it possible to start multiplayer games with both?

So GBA, GB, or NDS?

I would like to gamble with other Bomberman.

You can do multiplayer with GB and NDS games (and soon, GBA).

Very nice to hear.
But how do I start the games so that both consoles can also be found?

For DS games, do multiplayer like normal.
For GB games, after launching the game, touch the bottom screen, then find the NiFi option.

I don't have that game, but, try going to DS Download Play on the second system, that's probably what "Download" is referring to.

I think i know why... did the twiligt emulator use the DS wlan settings ?
the DS couldn't WPA or WPA2 security only WEP
so is that the problem vor all Twilight wlan settings ?
