Why does my 3DS get stuck on black screens, crash, power off, etc when launching TWiLight Menu++?
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
How do I fix getting a white screen when booting TWiLight Menu++?
- 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 32 KB cluster/allocation size
- If that also doesn't work, try a different SD card
Where is the Acekard/Wood UI theme?
The Acekard (also called Wood UI) theme was removed due to its buggy behavior and causing SD card corruption. Please wait for a fix. Progress for the return of this theme can be found in this PR.
How do I fix TWiLight Menu++ restarting or giving a Guru Meditation Error when launching a game?
Go into TWLMenu++ Settings, and disable Update recently played list.
Why do I get a white screen when trying to load a DS game from SD card?
See Why do I get a white screen when trying to load a game from SD card? on the nds-bootstrap FAQ page.
How do I use cheats?
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.
- On the 3DS, this database is available in the Universal-Updater app as "NDS Cheat Databases." This will automatically install it to the required location.
Alternatively, you can use r4cce to create your own cheat DB.
How do I show a custom picture on the top screen of the DSi theme?
A random .png image in sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/dsimenu/photos/ will be shown each time the menu is loaded. If there are no applicable images, screenshots taken by nds-bootstrap will be used instead.
- The images(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
How do I get games?
You can download homebrew games from Universal-DB and GameBrew. To get dumps of your retail games:
- On DS you can use GodMode9i to dump your GBA games and, if you have a Slot-2 flashcart, DS games. If you only have a Slot-1 flashcard and would like to dump a DS game, you can use Wooddumper, which requires a Wi-Fi connection compatible with the DS, as well as an FTP client on a separate device to receive the ROM
- On DSi you can use GodMode9i to dump your DS games and DSiWare
- On 3DS you can use GodMode9 to dump your DS games, DSiWare, and Virtual Console titles
Can I get the save files from my Game Cards onto my SD card or vice versa?
Yes, you can use GodMode9i on DSi and 3DS or Checkpoint on 3DS.
How do I change TWiLight Menu++'s language?
- Open TWiLight Menu++ settings, you can do this by holding SELECT while loading TWiLight Menu++
- Press L or Y once (on flashcard/3DS) or twice (on DSi)
- Change the first option until you see the language you want, then exit settings
- You may also want to change the next two options as they control the language of DS games and their titles in TWiLight Menu++
Is this a DS(i) emulator?
No, this is not an emulator. The menu and DS games (loaded via nds-bootstrap) are ran natively in the console's DS/DSi mode. The only consoles emulated are the past consoles, but partially for GBA (as some or all parts like graphics are ran natively).
What systems does TWiLight Menu++ support?
See List of Systems Supported by TWiLight Menu++.
Why isn't touch input working on sudokuhax?
Depending on the save file of sudokuhax, the touch screen inputs may not work.
Can The Biggest Loser boot TWiLight Menu++?
No. As The Biggest Loser is a Slot-1 game, and not a DSiWare game, SD access is disabled when running Slot-1 cards.
