Homebrew Problem updating TwiLightMenu++

[Deinexim]

I just recently modded my DSi, following the guide in 'https://dsi.cfw.guide/'. I used the Python version of 'HiyaCFW Helper', but it installed the wrong version of TwilightMenu++ (the 2nd anniversary one; presumably version 8.5). I found out that it wasn't the most up-to-date version because the newest versions seem to apply AP patches to games on loading them. I tried running 'Mario vs. Donkey Kong Miniland Mayhem', and the sprites were corrupted. If the AP patches were being applied, this wouldn't happen. I tried updating TwiLightMenu++ using the instructions given on the GitHub page, but nothing changes. Any game that requires AP patches doesn't work properly. How do I update TwiLightMenu++?

Hello.

That is sad to hear of your issues.

A few questions please to get a litte more Informations.Thank you.

Which Exploit did you used ?
Did you made the NAND Backup ?
Did you installed Unlaunch ?
Is your SD Card formatted with FAT32 ?

Did you try to re-install TWiLight Menu with the HiyaCFW Helper ?

You only need your fresh formatted SD Card and your NAND Backup.
The Helper loads the latest Release of TWiLight on your SD Card.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I used the Memory Pt exploit. Yes, I made the NAND Backup, installed Unlaunch, and my SD card is formatted FAT32. I haven't tried reinstalling TwiLightMenu with HiyaCFW, since that's what got me the outdated version of TwiLightMenu to begin with, but I could give it another shot.

The corrupted sprites are an issue on nds-bootstrap's side.
There's nothing wrong with the AP-patch.

I have tried the HiyaCFW Helper a few minutes ago,it loads the latest Release v.10.1.0 with Bootstrap v0.25.3
Thank you.

Okay, I decide to try updating TwiLightMenu again, making sure that I did everything correctly, and it worked. I'm guessing I messed up somewhere last time. Thank you guys for helping me, and I'm sorry I might have wasted your time.

Oh, okay. Is there any way of getting it to work, though? Like using some other method?

Aside from a flashcard, nope.

So.... I got a DSi XL and threw unlaunch on it trying to get TwilightMenu++ to work. I keep getting Guru Mediation Error when booting up TwilightMenu++. I do not have HiyaCFW because not being bale to use the dsimenu if you have a bigger than 2gb sd card is plain fucking stupid.

Fixed that issue but now games just boot to a white screen from twilight menu

Which games boot to white screen?

Which games boot to white screen?

Phantom Hourglass says its supported but just white screen for me

 

[HaloBenish]

wait I got it working with a legit card inside my dsi… is it using that as a donor card and will it wipe my saves from it ?

That should work, as it does boot for me on both my SD card, and flashcards with B4DS.
Are both TWLMenu++ and nds-bootstrap up to date?

It's supposed to work without a card though.
It's possible your nds-bootstrap is out of date.
