Includes nds-bootstrap v2.0.2

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • The original DSi Menu launch dot animation has been added!
    • Special thanks to @fizzyfizzfizzz for dumping the animation from the original DSi Menu!
  • Updated AP-fix for SaGa 2 (English translation) (v2.12).
    • The original AP-fix did not work with nds-bootstrap due to how the ROM of the English translation is structured. To fix the structuring, either open the ROM using the latest nightly build of TinkeDSi and then save the ROM, or download the xdelta patch in Assets to apply to the clean Japanese ROM.
  • Slot-1 SCFG setting no longer overrides the SD access setting. To continue switching between flashcard and SD contents using the SCFG setting, you'll now need to turn on the SD access for Slot-1 setting as well.

Bug fixes

  • @lifehackerhansol: Fixed games not working when using the Kernel setting as Game Loader for M3DS flashcards.
  • DSi theme: Fixed the icon vertical position being 1px higher than in the original DSi Menu.
  • Fixed a bug which caused low quality sound output on DSi/3DS consoles running from flashcards.
  • Fixed select sound only playing in the SEGA Saturn theme.
  • DSi theme: Fixed spacing of the left/right brace sprites.
  • DSi theme: Fixed color behind scroll bar buttons in the default white skin.

Includes nds-bootstrap v2.0.1

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • The AP-fix for SaGa 3 has been fixed to work on nds-bootstrap!
    • The AP-fix (by RetroGameFan) was not working due to nds-bootstrap's patch code. The fixed version of the AP-fix relocates the branching code to an area where it's not affected by nds-bootstrap's patch code.
  • Added AP-fix for Okamiden (Spanish translation)!
  • If a corrupt .nds file has been detected, it'll now show a message saying that either the title and/or SD card is corrupted, and prevent it from launching.
    • Please note the detection system isn't perfect, and certain corrupt .nds files could still be launched.
  • The original DSi Menu scroll speed has been restored for the DSi theme!
  • Custom icons can now be assigned to individual argv files!
  • For faster booting of old DS homebrew (as well as GBARunner2), the Load Bootloader setting is now set to Direct by default.
  • Removed Slot-1 Touch Mode setting.
    • Due to the improvements made to sound frequency changing, DSi touch mode has caused very low quality sound output when nds-bootstrap switches to DS touch mode.
    • This unfortunately means that games running in DSi mode via SCFG access for Slot-1 can no longer use camera features. Attempting to use camera features will now cause the game to crash.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed misdetection of Harvest Moon DS Cute as homebrew.
  • 3DS theme: Fixed bottom START button on the touch screen not doing anything.
  • DSi theme: Fixed drop down animation playing 5 frames behind a white screen.
  • DSi theme: Fixed top screen appearing with white tint.
  • Fixed low quality sound output on DSi/3DS consoles.

Includes nds-bootstrap's 200th Release

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • Due to the game compatibility improvements made in nds-bootstrap, there are now no known incompatible games for B4DS mode!
  • On DSi consoles, features related to the BPTWL I2C chip (such as the volume icon, 4-bar battery icon, and brightness changing) are now hidden if the chip is found bricked.

Bug fixes

  • Improved retail/homebrew detection by first checking if it's a retail title, before assuming it's homebrew.
  • Pressing D-Pad Left/Right in the Wood UI theme now jumps by the amount of titles displayed.
  • Fixed leftover ? icons shown in place of folder icons when exiting/entering a folder in the Wood UI theme.
  • Improved rumble detection to not take a long time.
  • Optimized touch screen mode switching code to fix where the sound would no longer play on certain DSi/3DS consoles.
  • Fixed where switching to the Misc settings page in TWLMenu++ Settings would cause a crash in some cases.
  • Fixed where touching the DSi theme icon in the Manual would have no effect.

v27.6.0

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • In an effort to reduce CPU/battery usage, the bottom screen drawing code (handled by gl2D) is now only run when animation and/or movement occurs, instead of running every frame.
    • If you previously used one of the low frame rate settings before they got removed, this change may possibly save even more battery than those settings (depending on how much/little happens on-screen)!
    • To test this at it's fullest, leave the console running the DSi menu theme with no animated icons on-screen, and find out how long the console runs (after a full charge).
  • @mentusfentus: DS Classic Menu: Improved clock hands and added outer shadow to the clock & calendar, making the top screen appear even closer to the original DS/DS Lite menu! (#2450)

Bug fix

  • @Lorenzooone: Fixed partial main RAM clear on DS debugger hardware when launching Slot-1. (#2449)

What's new?

  • You can now have TWLMenu++ autoboot on your 3DS or 2DS console, with a setting called Set Luma Autoboot (in the Misc settings page)!
  • Adding GBARunner3 just got easier! You no longer need to add a specific setting to settings.ini (which was GBARUNNER3_TEST = 1), and now only GBARunner3.nds needs to be placed in sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/emulators/!
  • Genesis and SNES ROMs are now visible on flashcards again!
    • If the filetype for the ROM(s) is .md, it'll not be visible until you set the Gen/MD emulator to PicoDriveTWL in TWLMenu++ Settings.
