Is there a tutorial how I can change add more themes or modify them in twilight?

I just want a simple list with black background. Thanks!

check in settings. they are loads of options. im sure you will find one which fits your needs.
Unfortunately there is no simple one. The only one coming close is the r4 theme, but that has a background that makes it hard to read the games. Would also be cool to jump right in the game list instead of a menu. I know it's mimicking the r4 that's why I need a different one.

Includes nds-bootstrap v0.63.1 (GBATemp thread for v0.63.0 & v0.63.1)

What's new?​

  • @Pk11 and various: Updated translations.

Bug fixes​

  • Fixed `Screen Aspect Ratio` per-game setting displaying if `Widescreen.cxi` didn't exist.
  • @lifehackerhansol: Fixed DS Lite backlight info not being properly saved when launching a flashcard game with Wood FW.
  • Fixed language and region selection screens for macro mode.
  • Fixed always using Grayscale for the transparent parts of battery, volume, and date/time.
  • Other minor fixes.

Hi! thanks Robz for your work :) I have some problems with Dragon Quest V, it seems like I constantly have an intro loop (probably an AP thing) and I can't get past that. I tried at least four USA roms and one EU rom, same result. I am using the latest TwilightMenu++ V25.2.1 with bootstrap 0.63.2 (I also tried to run the game on DS mode and with TWL clock speed enabled).
Do you have any suggestions? I am on old 3ds running the game from sd card. Thank you!

Seems to be timing issues related to the SD card. Try a new and faster SD card.
If the issue persists, then wait for a fix.

OCD nitpick incoming :angry: I like the “recent” sort order, but I dislike how when twilight is launched, it hovers over the position of the item selected last time, which could have actually moved to a different position with “recent” sorting, so it could hover over a different game.

Is there a way to make twilight menu launch while always hovering over the first file in the current directory instead? It would be similar to the Nintendo Switch menu when coupled with “recent” sorting, which is more convenient IMO.

It is currently not possible. You'll have to wait 'til it gets implemented in a future version.

Would anyone tell me if VNDS (visual novel reader for DS) also works from SD slot of a DSi, via TWL++? And is it able to take advantage of the increased ram available? I ask because on DS, the usual "guru meditation error" pops up often when loading voice tracks. Has anyone ever tried it from SD slot? Does it work without any problems? Thanks.
