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

[Pk11]

Hello, I tried to make some forwarders using the homebrew application (can't get the java version to open), but special characters like é or à are corrupted. It would be "L'Épopée des élus".
Any solutions?

It is indeed an NDSForwarder issue, just opened up a Pull Request to fix it, in the meantime I've attached a build if you want.

Worked fine, thanks

I also noticed corrupted icons on the romhack versions Blaze Black 2 and Volt White 2, but they show fine on Desmume and icons of original games are ok, should I open a issue on their Github ?

Hey, I'm trying to play a randomized Black 2 in the twilight menu but it get attacked by the anti-piracy measures even though that doesn't happen with the unrandomized copy. Is there a way around this? Or am I just screwed.

You need to manually AP patch before randomizing. You can do so with RetroGameFan's nds-scene ROM tool.

Okay... But the program needs to be updated to support the game but it just gives me this same error stating that it can't download and the server is not found every time it tries to. What am I supposed to do then.

Did you let it try to 'update'? The 'update' actually downgrade the database so you shouldn't do it. Looks like maybe the server's down now or something but you don't want to 'update' anyways.

If it doesn't recognize your ROM make sure you have a clean dump and are AP patching before randomizing.

It is recognizing my rom but it's telling me "not supported" even though it is apparently supposed to be. And it wasnt able to update in the first place so that's not it.

You've probably got a bad dump then, try redumping and make sure not to trim it. The checksums should match no-intro's checksums.

Apparently the problem was that I had a trimmed rom. But now it's AP patched and not getting assaulted by anti-piracy. Thank you so much for your help.

After I open the console a few times, it only starts with the twilight menu.

Unlaunch menu appears three or four times.

Because Unlaunch is set to auto-start TWLMenu++, and Unlaunch appearing is due to the SD not being inserted correctly.

Is there a noticeable performance difference?

This is already integrated into the source and will be provided in the next update.

We've been putting it off for a while because it was unstable in DSi-mode, but recent testing has shown that it now works good enough.

Mayby stupid question but I kind of like that function: Is there a way to make games launched through Twilight menu appear on 3DS Activity Log or have some separate for Twilight menu? New features makes me want to come back from using forwarders but this is really only thing holding me back

Guessing this is still not possible using TWiLightMenu++?

 

[RocketRobz]

Right. It'll never be possible, at least for the 3DS app.
An alternative would be to implement an activity log within TWLMenu++ instead.

The main improvement here is that it has been migrated to ARM7DLDI & properly works with the DSi SD card, instead of relying on RAM disks. As far as I know, most the other stuff is more behind-the-scenes

just want to know if its possible to mod/hack Animal Crossing Wild World to run at 30fps instead of the usual 15/20fps that it runs at? I'm sure the 133mhz mode can help w/ this

Should be possible. You'd have to look for the FPS lock code somehow though.
