Homebrew [Discontinued] TWLoader - CTR-mode NDS app

[Bungee_Cord]

Might be an unreleased version in the video.

So the current version of ermii kart ds doesn't work on twloader?

 

[Kikirini]

I know you guys are working on it, but I can't wait for translation-patched games to be supported. I'm dying to play some Fire Emblem!

 

[RocketRobz]

I have a problem with latest version
I try load A5-NeoDs.nds (for load neo geo roms from sd root) and I have error to find bootstrap, press b to return menu and I cant play neo geo roms

With TWLoader v5.5.1 I can play with anny problems but new version cant

I really dont know the reason to cant work in new versions

I have O3DS with boot9strap 1.3 and Luma v9.0. 64GB SD card with free 16 GB

hb-bootstrap.nds is missing from "sd:/_nds". Get it from the latest version's .7z file.

Are pokemon games near cart speed?

Nope, because a smaller cache chunk size is used when data is caching.

Will they ever be near-cart speed?

Actually translation patched games do work. Its just that Fire emblem heroes of light and shadow is either using THUMB, which is not supported by nds bootstrap at the moment, Or sdk5/DSi Enhanced. (The latter is being worked on.) Im actually playing a english translation of tales of the tempest on twloader right now.

With the current code, there would be more lags, if that happened.

For the start of the app where it loads I think there should be a loading icon to see if it has crashed or not.

You can enable that in settings. It works for games on the SD card.

EDIT: Oh did you mean TWLoader, not bootstrap?

Yeah I mean't for TWLoader itself, also i'm having an issue. I use the Flashcart method and i'm on the latest version. When I launch a game it gets to where the flashcart is supposed to be launching the game but the top screen goes white and the bottom screen is black. It does this for all games, i'll mess with the settings to see if anything else works.

does GBARunner2 work? I can get white screens only.

Are you running GBARunner2 by selecting GBA as ROM type?
If so, keep trying. Booting it isn't always successful.

Oh, haha, my mistake then. I'll rephrase, I hope Fire Emblem works sometime soon! Great job so far devs!

Hey, Robz8, I love the way TWLoader works, but could you help me with a little problem I'm encountering?

I tried to use TWLoader with my R4iTT flashcard (specifically the one on the left on this webpage without the screw), then I pressed start, set game location to Flashcard, then pressed "Add Games", wondering what it would do. I was greeted with a white screen. I restarted the 3DS and then tried my flashcard directly from the home menu. Apparently, the white screen was still there, even without using TWLoader. Somehow, TWLoader bricked my flashcard!

What did TWLoader do to my flashcard that made it white screen every time it's booted up? Know any way to fix it? It worked perfectly fine before. I even tried re-formatting and re-downloading kernel files and switching to another micro SD card, but it stays on that accursed white screen. Heck, reset Slot 1 is already enabled. I really screwed up. I'm using an old 3DS, by the way.

Help me Robz8. You're my only hope.

If it's worth anything, I bricked my flashcard trying to run a patched rom with DSATM. The only way I was able to recover it was by using the ntrboot flasher to flash ntrboot to it, then recover it using the flash backup that was uploaded on the 3ds.guide. Not sure if your flashcard supports ntrboot or if anyone has a flash backup of it made with the ntrboot flasher, but that is a way you can recover your card.

I'm using a flashcart for TWLoader. When I try to load a game, it goes to

Now booting Slot-1 card
Running sd:/_nds/loadcard_dstt.nds with 1 parameters

And then it freezes, I can go back to the home menu. TWLoader used to work for me before but now it doesn't. I tried with the "DSTT" folder and the "R4i Gold, R4i-SDHC" folder, I get the same thing everytime.

Somebody please help!

Make sure "loadcard_dstt.nds" is at "sd:/_nds/".
If it's already there, try reinstalling TWLNAND side.

Yeah it's there, and reinstalling it doesn't work.

I will say *sometimes* it works but then goes into a white screen. I enabled the option to stop white screens for slot-1 cards so I don't think it should still happen.

Do you have TTfwd.dat on the flashcard's microSD card root?
Also, make sure the flashcard is inserted correctly.

does GBARunner2 work? I can get white screens only.

Make sure to have the correct bios for gba at the root of your gba folder like this SD:/gba/bios.bin
