Q: Why does my 3DS / 2DS get stuck on black screens, crash, power off, etc 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: How do I fix getting a white screen when booting TWiLight Menu++?
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
- Try with all cheats disabled for that game as some cheats are not compatible with nds-bootstrap at the moment, you can use L to disable all cheats for a game
- If the game you're trying to launch is a DSi Enhanced game, then make sure that TWiLight Menu++ is set to use
DS Mode - If it worked before, delete the
fatTableandpatchOffsetCachefolders insd:/_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 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
Q: How do I get games?
A: 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 flashcard, DS games
- 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
Q: Can I get the save files from my cartridges onto my SD card or vise versa?
A: Yes, you can use GodMode9i on DSi and 3DS or Checkpoint on 3DS.
Q: How do I change TWiLight Menu++'s language?
A:
- 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++
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.
