howdy yall! I'm in need of a bit of help, I've been having a rather strange problem :lol:
(also this is my first time posting here, sorry in advance for any shenanigans I may somehow cause)

So basically when launching a forwarded game, the sound get a tad er- wonky. There's audio crackles around specific pitch frequencies (Ex.with crash cymbals, or chimes ringing it seems.) At first I thought it was a TWLoader issue or a even hardware problem, however, when I launched the same titles on TWL Menu++, the audio was perfect! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(also-also, Rob, I have no clue how you do it, but your work is just amazing! Thanks for everything you've done, seeing how TWLoader, now TWiLight Menu++ has grow and what it can do is just aw-inspiring, admittedly, it makes me wonder if you even sleep sometimes but, thanks Rob! :))

I've forwarded a few titles but not all of them have this problem it seems, Ex. Game&Watch Col. seems to be fine, but this may be because some games never play anything with those specific pitches. Pokemon Black and Black 2 have the crackles, so does Lego Battles... I've tried changing a few things here and there, to see if it was just a setting that was the cause, but no dice, I've tried,
  • Running the CPU at different clock speeds (yeah idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
  • Swapping sound freq.
  • Running in different Sys modes (DS mode, DSi mode)
  • Turning on/off video ram boost ( I know, I know, ... I was getting despite ok? lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
Aaaand before I forget, I'm running TWiLight Menu++ Ver. 15.3.0 with nds-bootstrap Release Ver. 0.35.1, on a N2DsXL running firm Ver. 11.13.0-45 with Luma3Ds Ver. 10.1.3

Well anyhow, any and all help is greatly appreciated! Take care yall! :D

Unfortunately, the only solution is to use TWiLight Menu++.
The reason on why those sound issues happen is not known.

Hello, I've had CFW on my 3ds for a long while now for custom home screen themes and other stuff, but having DS games on my home screen is definetely what I want to do next as i've been wanting to play all the pokemon games lately. I followed all the steps, and it didn't work the first time so I did it again and thought I went through everything right but I got the error where the top screen is black and the bottom screen is white. I know it tells you how to fix the issue in the first post but I did that and still got the same result. Do I have to delete and reinstall stuff completely for that solution to work cause all I did was use the Forwarder program a second time and made sure the .nds file was inside the 3ds SD card. Help would be very appreciated, my friend and I want to compete against each other in Pokemon HeartGold.

I've been having a strange problem as well. So when I attempt to load one of my DS games, the top screen turns white and the bottom screen turns into something akin to a file selector? But everything I try to press/open, nothing happens. Am I missing some part of the bootstrap or did I do something wrong in my steps? Please let me know!

Thanks!

Are you trying to load from a flashcard, or the console's SD card?

So, definitely worked, I feel like an idiot. So everything seems to work except for Tony Hawk's American Sk8land. Any reason as to why?

Also thank you for being one of the biggest homies ever.

Darn. Unfortunate that it is a one-of in this situation, but no big deal. Thank you for all your info and support. Will reply or comment if I have problems with anything else involving this or the (many) other things you've done for us all. Thank you, my dude.

    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.
