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

[Maccaman8]

Anyone have any idea on how to fix the following:
-I just purchased a New 3DS XL and have GM9 and Homebrew freshly installed
-Have Twilight Menu and NDS Bootstrap installed through the universal updater

Been trying to play Sacred Gold & Storm Silver.
After about 30 minutes of playing (but can be random) - I am getting either:
-A red top screen with asterixes
OR
-Games freezing upon entering a battle.

Interesting thing is I have an old 3DS XL which I installed twilight menu back in January and it plays both games fine (longest session 6 hours with no freezing).

What have I done wrong this time around?
I've scoured these forums and havent been able to figure out exactly what to do.

Nothing you can do to fix the issue for now. You'll have to run in DS mode, in the meantime.

ah i see also this latest update seems to have messed up widescreen when playing a hack the previous version launched in blaze black 2 with widescreen just fine but this new update doesnt seem to let it use widescreen anymore. also off topic when i try to generate a forwarder for redux it gives me an error i dont have with any other game

redo the widescreen cxi tutorial. this happened to me with a previous version, no idea why, but that fixed it.

Try switching "Run in" to "DS mode" in the per-game settings menu.

 

[godreborn]

updated tm on both 3ds and ds, no issues to report. I didn't have the widescreen issue, but I'm not sure if that member was talking about that specific rom, which I think is a pokemon mod. I don't have the game, so I was unable to test that one specifically.

Pokemon Platinum

Was this using nds-bootstrap or EOS? If it's nds-bootstrap, it might be the same issue I found a few months back
https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/TWiLightMenu/issues/1738
I did find launching TWiLight Menu++ through EOS then launching games through nds-bootstrap worked.

Nope, this isn't the same issue.
From looking at the log, there's a function that nds-bootstrap can't find, so nds-bootstrap would need to be fixed so it can find the function.

ah ok. Do you know if it still requires the expansion pack or anything. Or is it just a software issue? (talking to robz in discord also)

Ah, I see. Hopefully, we can one day fix the issue I posted. I did find a workaround using launching TWiLight Menu++ through Bagplus using the "EOS" option. So that's something I figured out.

I have the GBA macro mod going on. Is there any way to swap the screens in EOS?

A Memory Expansion Pak is not required for Sonic Classic Collection.

v24.5.0

Includes nds-bootstrap v0.55.4

What's new?

• (@lifehackerhansol) The icon is now animated again!
  • 3DS: For this to take effect, delete TWiLight Menu++ in System Settings, before updating. (Using FBI to delete it will work as well, but make sure TWLMenu++ is gone from the HOME Menu, before updating.)
• (@DeadSkullzJr) Added AP-fixes for:
  • Metal Max 2: Reloaded (English translation)
  • Nora to Toki no Koubou: Kiri no Mori no Majo (English translation v0.3c)
  • Pokémon: Moon Black 2
  • SaGa 2: Hihou Densetsu: Goddess of Destiny (English translation)
• Deleted AP-fixes for randomized Pokémon ROMs, as each one have varying headers.
• (@Pk11) Launcher App & SysNAND Region are now autodetected from DSi NAND.
• When launching a GBA ROM using the Native feature on DS Phat/Lite, holding D-Pad Left & R shoulder buttons will now activate a feature hidden in the console, which swaps green intensity between every two pixels.
  • As this is not a visible feature in TWLMenu++ Settings, it should only be used for testing purposes.
  • Will not work with EZ-Flash 3 in 1.

Improvement

• ((@Pk11 and various) Updated translations.

Bug fixes

• (@Pk11) Fixed DSi icon palettes in DSi-based themes. (See #1884 for more info.)
• (@Pk11) ROM folder is now reset if missing.
• (@DeadSkullzJr) Fixed AP-fix for Metal Max 2: Reloaded.

 

[godreborn]

updated both nds and 3ds, no issues to report. I like the new, animated icon.

 

[Naendow]

Sorry for being a bit off-topic, but I think this thread is the best place to post this.
I am actually creating some custom icons for my GBA games and will most likely do the same thing for my GB and GBC roms. When a few of them are done I'll create a GitHub repo so everyone can download and use them.
Would anyone here be interested in this or maybe even contribute?

 

[raxadian]

Hey guys if you have a New 3DS or New 2DS remember to lower the CPU speed of DS games or you are gonna run into timing issues. Dunno why DS games roms don't run by default with the lower speed. Or maybe that was me? Maybe I set it for a higher speed or something?

 

[sombrerosonic]

Actually, my DSi SD cards been getting corrupted pretty often, (No, i dont have the setting that can corrupt my sd card enabled) while playing Smt DS, The rom ether ends up red or graphics get corrupted heavily and then crashes
