Q: Why is my 3DS/2DS stuck on black screens when launching TWiLight Menu++, or why is my 3DS/2DS powering off when launching TWiLight Menu++?

A: TWL_FIRM might've somehow got corrupted. Follow this guide to fix the issue: https://3ds.hacks.guide/troubleshooting#dsi--ds-functionality-is-broken-after-completing-the-guide

Q: I get a white screen when booting TWiLight Menu++. How do I fix this?

A:

  • First, try putting the console in sleep mode (e.g. closing the console's lid, or pressing the sleep button on the O2DS), then wake up the console from it.
  • If that doesn't work, format your SD card to FAT32 with 32kb cluster/allocation size.
  • If that also doesn't work, try a different SD card.

Q: Why do I get a white screen when trying to load a game from SD Card?

A:

  • First, check the nds-bootstrap compatibility list and make sure your game is compatible.
  • If the game that's attempted to be launched is a DSi Enhanced game, then make sure that TWiLight Menu++ is set to use DS Mode.
  • If it worked before, delete the fatTable and patchOffsetCache folders in sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap/

Q: How do I use cheats?

A: You need to have a cheat DB in the form of a usrcheat.dat file in the sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/extras/ folder. The most updated cheat database is DeadSkullzJr's. Alternatively, you can use r4cce to create your own cheat DB.

Q: How do I show a custom picture on the top screen of the DSi theme?

A: A random .png image in sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/dsimenu/photos/ will be shown each time the menu is loaded.

  • The file(s) must be no bigger than 208x156.
  • If you have errors, it's most likely an error with the image size. Please use tinypng to reduce the size.

Q: Why isn't touch input working on sudokuhax?

A: Depending on the save file of sudokuhax, the touch screen inputs may not work.

Q: Can The Biggest Loser boot TWiLight Menu++?

A: No. As The Biggest Loser is a Slot-1 game, and not a DSiWare game, SD access is disabled when running Slot-1 cards.
