either im just dumb or i cant read, but does Twilight Menu++ DLDI homebrew for you? because with some homebrew they dont work or they say its needs to be dldi patched. or is there a certain kind of patch used for loading homebrew with twilight menu. the homebrews that had this problem for me was NitroTracker V4 and A Neko Story DS

nds-bootstrap (used to boot old homebrew) has it's own DLDI driver applied to homebrew.
If the homebrew isn't working, try creating a RAM disk. Instructions are in the first post.

For AP-patching, how does that work on the menu? I try loading clean installations of roms and they aren't working unless I AP-patch them in the DS Scene tool.

You have to use the latest TWLMenu++ and nds-bootstrap versions.
What games did you try?

I actually updated the menu a few days ago. I tried it with Pokemon Black 2, Fossil Fighters Champions, Dragon ball kai ultimate butoden, and Spiderman: Shattered dimensions. All games work if I patch them with the scene tool, but If I run them on my ds without patching them; they don't work.

The latest version is from yesterday, you should update.

Strange. We're you using DSi mode when they didn't boot?

No, I had them set to default mode. I am updating Twighlight currently, lets see if that works.

If I use the flashcard method with a R4i Gold 3DS Plus I will be able to use Twilight's features with the card's compatibility right?

Is there a list of which games work in widescreen?

First of all thanks for this awesome piece of software.

Secondly I am trying to get the boxart working on the latest (yesterdays') release. I downloaded this pack:
https://www.gametdb.com/download.php?FTP=GameTDB-ds_box-US-2019-09-04.zip

And extracted it in the desired location (sd://_nds/TWiLightMenu/boxart) but my DSi just displays some jagged lines for the games that it find the boxart for. Am I using the right source?

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.

    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
