It worked fine in DS mode. I tried fixing the AP-patch so that it works in DSi mode, but apparently, I messed up somewhere, causing the game to not work in both modes.
I want my DSi to always boot on TWiLight Menu when I switch it on and also return to it when I briefly push the Power button to reset so I've set TWiLight Menu (sdmc:/BOOT.NDS) for No Button in Unlaunch options and everything seems to work fine. Except I sometimes get stuck on a white screen when briefly pressing the Power button to exit from a DS Game. I assume this is a known issue and I just have to close the console lid then re-open and press B.
Question: Do I also need to go in TWiLight Menu options/Misc. settings and set Default launcher to TWiLight Menu or leave the current setting which is System Menu?

OK got it. I've not installed hiyaCFW so I will leave the default setting (System menu).
Thanks for your quick response and for this awesome menu.
Would you advise to turn off Card read DMA in TWiLight Menu settings or only for some games by using per-game settings with button Y?
On my CFW modded New 2DS XL I ended up turning off the setting to get DS games running correctly. As it was causing a lot of DS games to not work, load,, crash, freeze and do all kinds of weird stuff when turned on..The Roms I am using are all trimmed and AP parched were applicable,

If "DSi mode" is the default setting in TWLMenu++ Settings, then there's a bug in nds-bootstrap, where TWL clock speed would always be enabled, regardless if the game is DSi-Enhanced or not.
The next version will fix this bug, so you'll need to manually enable TWL clock speed.
I was a little confused until I just noticed what you were referring to and now that makes sense. On one hand, my cinematics no laggy, on the other, bugs.
Nanostray 2 (EUR) gets stuck on black upper screen and white lower screen with latest TWiLight Menu.
I've tried in DS mode and with card read DMA off but no success.

Weird. Turning off DMA worked perfect for me on Order of Ecclesia EUR version.
Try a different rom or a different SD card.

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer -

TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying+1 -
