The DSi and every flashcard I've used that support SDHC also support SDXC (up to 2TB) with the one condition that you reformat as FAT-32 fyi. I've actually never seen a device that supported SDHC but didn't support FAT-32 formatted SDXC.
(specifically I have DSTT, Acekard 2i, and DSONE SDHC)
I looked on the supercard dstwo's website, and it mentions only supporting up to 32GBs. I think that's the max for sdhc.
Have you actually tried though? Most companies will claim up to 32 GB because you don't officially support SDXC unless you support ExFAT (as FAT-32 isn't officially supported), but there's no actual reason FAT-32 isn't supported, iirc Microsoft just paid the SD Association to use it or something like that.
i have a problem, with my dsi (dsi xl and dsi) when i run my dump of pokemon dsi enhaced ( black/white, black2/white2) works flawlessly in dsi mode ( its easy to check because on dsi mode the network settings are used from launcher settings and dont let you change anything), but if i try to run directly form the card on twilight menu, the games run in normal ds mode instead.
i tried ussing the direrct boot option and the game of the cart run in ds mode. In the reboot mode, simply dont start and in unlaunch mode i get black screen...
This is a bug or something?
Thanks RocketRobz for your amazing work!

It is unknown how to boot Slot-1 in DSi mode, so that's why TWLMenu++ can only run them in DS mode.
hi all, um im on twilight menu 23.1.1, with lastest bootstrap nds and i have an issue with kingdom Hearts 358/2 days game:
i can't seem to get pasted a black screen that happens on day 298 mission.
at somepoint when chasing the orginzation imposter, at the point where they are at a corner, you must go there for a cutscene trigger, when you get there the game suddenly frezzes on a black screen with the music still playing, but no action playing.
any fix for this? i tried it on flashcard (R4I 3ds gold) same result as on twilightmenu.
not sure if it needs to be AP patched via ds scene tool (manual)?
thanx.
also, why does pokemon heartgold have an AP issue and soulsilver does not?
the romhack of heartgold (heartred) seems to glicth out alot, and freeze on white/black screens too often,
beacuse of this annoying issue, i have to reboot the menu to play the game again, and save every so often becuae of this issue with this specific game.
maybe because of the ap that heartgold has?

I've never encountered this issue, last time I tried. Some specific settings could cause the issue. Try turning off card read DMA.
If it doesn't fix it, then either manually AP-patch the ROM, or wait for a fix.
The ROM needs to be AP-patched first, before applying a ROM hack patch.
Please help me. My DSi's Screens are flickering if I try to play Arkanoid DS from my flashcard.
I use a M3 DS REAL with a class 10 Sandisk µSD- card with 32 GB of space formatted to Fat32 with 32 KB of clustersize with TWLM++ v23.1.1 with nds-bootstrap v0.51.1 installed on top of RGF's multicardupdate v7.06 following the instructions from page 1 of this thread. My NDS is a DSi XL is on firmware 1.4.5E it has Unlaunch 2.0 installed via MemoryPIT. In the internal SD-slot it has a SDXC capable SD2µSD-adapter with a class 10 Verbatim µSD- card with 32 GB of space formatted to Fat32 with 32 KB of clustersize with TWLM++ v23.1.1 with nds-bootstrap v0.51.1 installed.
Whether using nds -bootstrap is activated or not in both cases there is screen flickering starting and running this game.
Many other games run very ok.
I noticed this flickering playing a few other games, too but i cant recall their names, sorry for that.
Edit: The problem only exists if the game is run from the M3 DS REAL. If it is run from the internal SD-slot it plays fine. But this doesn't fix the problem.
Edit 2: If only RGF's multicardupdate v7.06 is installed the game also boots up flickering.

I tried it with and without. It seems not to make a difference.
Edit; I should try to describe more precisely what I mean by screen flickering - the company logos shown while starting Arkanoid DS on my M3 DS REAL are not displayed correctly. they are displayed a little corrupted, fractured, sometimes mirrored on the other screen, changing very fast. This also continues ingame but less frequently.

If I remember correctly, Arkanoid and other games that exhibit similar behavior have to run under 67 mhz mode to stop the flickering between the screens.
Sorry but I don't understand what this means in my case or more precisely how I can use this information with my setup to get rid of this behavior?

Not sure if I should use this thread or create a new one.
I've installed Twilight menu on my DSi systems and of course it's fantastic. Now I also have some older flash carts, and I can reboot into the flash carts from the Twilight Menu. To be honest though, I would rather just use Twilight for the flash cards too.
So my questions:
1. Can I boot Twilight and access the Slot-1 cards directly? Or do I absolutely have to reboot into the flash cart?
2. Is there a practical way to make Twilight the default menu on the flash carts so that it just boots up? I have 7-8 different flash carts including iTouch, M3i Zero, R4isdhc (a clone), m3 Simply, etc. The M3i Zero doesn't work from the menu for some reason (I get 4 coloured squares)

Now Slot-1 doesn't launch on my end no matter what. Even using the reboot method just hard locks the console. (Direct softlocks it, forcing a quit of TWL_FIRM)
It used to boot in raw DS mode when autobooted, and softlock on manual boot.
- You can turn on Auto-start Slot-1 in TWLMenu++ Settings.
- Yes. see this guide, which contains steps to make your flashcard autoboot into TWLMenu++.
