What's new?

    • Scroll down to see which titles are now supported.
    • Click >here< for the full list of supported titles.
  • A few DSiWare can now read the TWL font table!
    • Currently, only 4 Travellers, Chuck E. Cheese's Arcade Room, Chuck E. Cheese's Alien Defense Force, Flashlight, Gunjin Shougi, and Sea Battle use it (mainly for the help/instruction manual screen).
    • Place TWLFontTable.dat (Non-CHN/KOR) in sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap/.
  • FAT cluster cache is now compressed to reduce heap shrink.
    • Should increase game compatibility, as well as fix support for SD cards with cluster size less than 32KB.

DSi & 3DS

  • If booted from flashcard, nds-bootstrap data will now be read from or saved to the flashcard.
  • DSi only: FAT cluster cache is now compressed to reduce heap shrink while in DSi mode.
    • Should reduce crashes in some DSi-Enhanced games.
  • When booting a TWL title from a DS flashcard booted with unlocked SCFG access, DSi BIOS dumps are now loaded from sd:/_nds/ in order to fix some bugs such as WPA1/2 crashing the console.
    • Either bios9i.bin & bios7i.bin, or bios9i_part1.bin & bios7i_part2.bin (the part files are dumped by TWLMenu++) are used.
  • Added external TWLFontTable.dat loading, needed for some out of region DSiWare to boot!
    • Place TWLFontTable.dat (Non-CHN/KOR) in sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap/.
    • Place CHN (iQue) TWLFontTable.dat renamed to CHNFontTable.dat in sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap/.
