Playing DSi ware from CIA installs the game to the home menu on NAND. I take it that means there is the usual limit to what can be played/installed. Read somewhere that people have managed to get up to 15 DSi ware titles installed but no more. Does that mean to play the games from Twloader we have the same limits? If so maybe that would be good info to share on the github? Plus what is the advantage of playing only possibly 15 DSi ware titles from Twloader over installing then with FBI and playing them from the home menu. Why would you load Twloader then run your DSiware game when you could have just ran it straight from home? Dont see the logic in this unless you can play DSiware titles from roms i.e nds files. Therefore defeating the 15 title limit. Any thoughts?

There is no title limit on TWLoader when launching DSiWare games, but you are límited to the TWLN small space until SD redirection is improved.

Becouse my R4 is basicly usesless after the most recent update on the 3DS, not even the TWL for launch the old flashcards make the thing work. I have try this TWLoader ctr but unfortunaly all the game that im intrested don't start (withe screen).
So becouse the "dead" of my old R4 i was searching for alternative.

Your R4 doesn´t react at all? Not even on an DS?

On DS works normaly, just on the 3DS. Apperently is becouse the recent updates.
That´s a first for me. I thought the R4 is supported by bootstrap. I know there is a difference in booting TWLoader in cia or the Homebrew Loader.
Edit: There is still one thing that could work. Download a different kernel for your flashcard, back everything up, delete the old firmware/kernel and copy paste the new one.
Maybe this helps.

launche GBArunner2
error:´
bootstrap not found.
Press B to return to
HOME Menu.
I had that Error as well. I solved it by copying the bootstrap files to the _nds folder on the root of the sd card, and into the _nds folder that is inside sdroot folder.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
