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

[banjo2]

I see that there's a blank "dummy" file in the DSi&3DS folder, what is it for?

GitHub. The file will be replaced by ".gitkeep", which should hopefully be not visible in the actual 7z file.

So I've been attempting to load my SoulSilver with this rom patch applied to it:

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonROM...old_in_heartgold_soulsilver_decapitalization/

However, the save file won't load upon choosing it in file select, leaving me with a black screen. I assume this is due the anti-piracy triggering because Anti-Piracy patch doesn't seem to be registering properly on any modded version of the original game. (The save file on modded rom loads fine on Desmume-emulator)

Soo I'm trying to look for a specific AP-patch for SoulSilver to apply manually and test if it could work on modded DS-roms, do you happen to know which one it is from this list?

It's the one with the game's TID (shown in the per-game settings).

Thanks!

Tried them the patches on modded games now, and it seems like they won't even get past loading (on the emulator as well, just hangs).

I guess this seems the case of AP-patches indeed being incompatible with the romhacks and like, unless there's some manual way of removing Anti-Piracy (through hex editing, hopefully?). Sorta wondering how these anti-piracy patches came to be, maybe we can use that to make a guide on helping people play hacked roms through TWL++.

Try to update to latest twilightmenu. https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/TWiLightMenu/releases.
Also looking at the compatibility list, those two games have been known in older versions to have audio crackles:

I have no idea why this happens, exactly.

Nope, they don't work.

Now there's no problem now with saving games, is it?
Because I would like to play dragon quest 5

All saving should work. I've had no problems.

Sorry, I'm a complete n00b.
This was said in compatibility list about Jump Ultimate Stars
>If nds-bootstrap errors, repack the game using ndstool
What does this mean? How I understand that nds-bootsrap errors? White screen? Because I have white screen.

Yes. Just repack the ROM with DSLazy.

Hello Robz8, thank you for your program. Is it possible to completely delete the Twilight menu application if you now have .cia forwarders working?

Yes. Just delete the TWLMenu++ apps using FBI, and the `TWiLightMenu` folder in `sd:/_nds/`.
