[lukepokemon9000]

i changed the path to my _nds/Roms and it was downloading missing box arts (2 box arts not sure if it matters) and then it crashed and now whenever i re-open it it immediately crashes do i have like a bad game or somthing?

EDIT right before it crashes it says downloading KBSE on the bottom screen and somtimes it doesnt even get to that screen it just immediately crashes

Please provide some more context here. What homebrew are you trying to use?

Delete the twloader folder your saves are in the rom folder so they wont be affected.

why not use dsimenu++ instead?

You should switch over to DSiMenu++, TWLoader is very old and was discontinued a while ago. Just make sure to enable game patching in the Luma options menu.
edit: ninja'd, but at least you have a link now

Thank you, my avatar is actually my fursona wearing the same outfit as my character in Pokemon Go.
So on topic, so you really shouldn't be using TWLoader, like everyone says. It's been discounted and no longer works with the latest nds-bootloader, meaning it doesn't have the latest compatibility. Please uninstall all applications related to TWLoader (it's recommended you uninstall them FBI) and install all the files related to DSiMenu++

It doesn't have a cover downloader, but they do provide a 7z file with most of the covers.
It's worth noting that due to how quickly youtube videos become outdated, it's one of the main reasons why we as a community highly recommend not relying on them without doing research.

(the heck happened here)
video guides are nothing compared to text guides, as text ones are a lot easier to update than video ones are.
on the topic of dsimenu++, its like the new twloader, just under a new name. youll get compatibility with the latest nds-bootstrap using it, and future compatibility.

Video guides are just for noobs to homebrewing or people who find it hard to understand either one works just make sure the video is up to date.

video guides get outdated faster than you would be led to believe.

EDIT: I used to have no clue about any of this type of stuff until I started to participate in the discussions here. I had no problem following text based guides. Imo I prefer text as I can follow at my own pace and stuff.

This has been an interesting thread full of bickering and fursonas. Stay charming, GBAtemp

Anyways, dsimenu++ is the way to go. That tutorial's software has been depreciated . Be sure to follow the main dsimenu++ thread for future updates.

This thread has more deleted comments than real comments.

As recommended, use DSiMenu++. Future compatibility, more game compatibility, nicer UI.

 

[lukepokemon9000]

ok well thanks for recommending dsimenu++ i tried it with homebrew browser and it didnt work so then i tried with...the internet i guess and it worked! so now that its working i guess ill close the thread. Thanks yall!

actually i cant figure out how to close it so i guess it will stay open for more people to respond

Only admins/mods can close threads, and it usually doesn't happen unless the thread degenerates

I would say the thread has degenerated enough. Also yes fbi downloads sometimes dont work as good as stuff downloaded on the net.

Just have OP report first post and ask for it to be closed or deleted. Mods and admins are willing to work with requests.
