For some reason my ROMs (Newer Super Mario Bros DS and Pokemon Platinum) return with "Error!" after loading them.

EDIT: Missed the FAQs, but after updating to Luma 9.0 and reinstalling the NAND side CIAs, it still returns with "Error!"
You forgot to set Mario Kart DS as donor ROM.

TWLoader v6.2.1

Happy new year, and good DS(i) gaming!

What's new?
  • "1st Anniversary" text has removed, as the anniversary is over!
  • New "pseudo-HDR" logo screen added!
  • R4 SDHC Dual-Core is no longer supported, as YSMenu (the ROM loader for DSTT and clones) bricks the card.
Improvements
  • German and Turkish translations improved (by @friberk and @Tails32).
  • Tried fixing colors on HOME Menu banner (by @Uupo03).

Hello. I tried to play Pokémon Diamond and everything went well until I saved the game and stoped playing. Later when I tried to play again I got a red screen with white dots on it and I can't play the game anymore. What's the problem? Happy New Year btw.

Right off the bat i found a minor bug:
Upon starting the loader the health and safely screen (bottom screen) is blacked out. (before loading the rom.)

Hi, im currently having an error when running any games on TWLoader on my Old 3DS, it opens the game, shows up the DS message, then goes to a loading screen, it stops at aprox. 75% and then shows an "Error!" message with a squared red cross, image below. I did the installation by scanning the QR code on the github page. I'm running Luma3DS on boot9strap. I don't know if you require any more info xD.

Looks like you didn't set Mario Kart DS as donor ROM.

Only if the original time bombed kernel is replaced with ysmenu? Or just the cart and TWLoader regardless?

If so, that would mean all R4isdhc.com carts can't be used... Dual core, Gold and RTS Lite are all the same... A lot of people use those carts. What causes the brick? Any fix coming soon?

YSMenu is the issue. It contains brick code that affects some cards.

Wait, I think the carts with year dates 2015 upwards are different from those pre 2014. Or do you mean ALL R4isdhc.com carts are affected?
Like I said, it's just Dual-Core. idk about the year.

A way to fix the issue, is to get bootstrap working on flashcards.

I tested these games on 0.6.1 and they work ok

Retail
Cars(works fine)
Cars Race o Rama(black screen if you try sleep mode but otherwise fine)

Rom Hacks
Pokemon Soul Silver
Pokemon Bloody Platinum
Pokemon Mind Crystal(English patch)

Cars Mater-National is still borked tho

Can you update the compatibiity list?Only if you want to though,just thought I'd mention stuff like this for record keeping.

Yeah, pokemon DPE and HGSS are working with donor ROM, just slow on switching in some scenes.

Is Supercard DS ONE really supported?
I have a early version of Supercard DS ONE(no "i" version, black cart with white label). it is undetected in TWLoader/NTR-Launcher/GodMode9(card init failed).

@Robz8 Can we launch a DS card with TWL Loader enhancements (better sound, better framerate)?

I'm asking because I use my SuperCard DSOne for DS games, as it supports save states and cheat codes. But I'd like to use the enhancements of TWL Loader. Maybe a simple cia that just launch the DS card could be possible in the future?

maybe you can use NTR Launcher for running DS card?
