Just launch the game. If it doesn't run, try turning off heap shrink.

You are a wizard!! Thanks for the nostalhia trip as the game started up XD
Did you turn off heap shrink, or did the game start fine without it?
I had to turn off heap shrink. Not sure what it does but turning it off fixed the white screen issue I would run into before.
Thank you! That's the info I needed, so that TWLMenu++ can automatically turn off heap shrink for that game in the next version.
It may need some more fixing in the future. The loading is quite slow. The gameplay is really good and playable but black screens come up between character select and map select. Although no complaints here its more then manageable. Just quality of life fixes is all it would need to make loading times more reasonable. Glad I could help!!
Thank you for the early answer, when i try to use the original firmware it says: akmenu4.nds not found. I'am using the file with the autoboot and boots with no problem and i can play with b4ds (Saving takes longer than habitual)
Hi, really struggling getting any game to boot on my ds lite & R4 SDHC Gold Pro 2020. I've tried various combinations so far.. original firmware, ysmenu, now with twilight menu it says cannot boot that game in ds mode any ideas please?

By this, he means that the game that you get that error with is likely treated as DSiWare. Posting this to clarify, as @Robz8 's response was quite ambiguous.
Hey, thanks for the work on Twilight Menu! Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong. I have it installed okay and have the gba bios in. Fifa 05 works perfectly but I have also tried Fifa 07, Alex Rider - Stormbreaker and Medal of Honor - Underground and they all fail when I press a button. Screen freezes and weird glitch noises happen. Any ideas? Thanks
If you're using a DSi, is Unlaunch installed?
Please post in the GBARunner2 thread, as it's an issue with GBAR2.
I've been trying for 2 hours to make Zelda Spirit Tracks work with this loader... I want to play the D-pad patched version but I always get a white screen upon boot.
I tried the trimmed rom... the clean rom... I tried applying the patch myself... I think the problem is the AP patch + Dpad patch don't work well togheter.

Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.+1 -

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@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 -

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."+1 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -

BigOnYa:
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.

@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:
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
