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.:)

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 I haven't tried reinstalling TwiLightMenu with HiyaCFW, since that's what got me the outdated version of TwiLightMenu to begin with, but I could give it another shot.

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.

The corrupted sprites are an issue on nds-bootstrap's side.
There's nothing wrong with the AP-patch.
Oh, okay. Is there any way of getting it to work, though? Like using some other method?

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

Phantom Hourglass says its supported but just white screen for me
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.
