Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

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.
  • Various: Updated translations.

Bug fixes

  • @mentusfentus: Fixed cursor behavior when sorting by recently played (#2430)
  • Wood theme: Icon zoom animation has been slowed down by a frame to closely replicate the animation from the original Wood UI menu.

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue caused by a devkitARM (and libnds?) update, where opening the DS Classic Menu on DS flashcards would cause TWLMenu++ to crash and restart.
  • 3DS/2DS users: Updating via Universal-Updater now works again.
    • Note that you'll no longer be able to update TWLMenu++ and nds-bootstrap nightly builds, due to the TWLBot account being made private.

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

After updating, if TWLMenu++ is stuck on white screens, or keeps showing the TWLMenu++ splash screen, try reinstalling.

What's new?

  • Some A-Data and Lexar branded SD cards will no longer show the SD prompt.
  • The SD prompt (for bad/fake/untested SD cards) will now only display when first booting TWLMenu++ on DSi. Turning off the DSi and turning it back on will make the prompt appear again.
  • A new message will now display when an SD card is not inserted.

v27.3.0: Robz' Birthday Release

23 May 06:29

Choose a tag to compare

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • Readded the Wood UI theme folder. (sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/akmenu/themes/)
  • Added SD card brand detection, in order to prevent booting TWLMenu++ on bad/fake SD cards.
    • Please note that the detection system isn't perfect, as certain bad/fake SD cards are known to reuse CIDs of good SD cards.
    • This feature does not work on flashcards, as the DLDI system does not support reading CIDs.
  • Added a .ini-only setting to swap the DS and DSi splash screens.
    • Open sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/settings.ini, and add OPPOSITE_SPLASH = 1 underneath the DSI_SPLASH line. As a result, you'll see the DSi splash on DS consoles, and the DS splash on DSi and 3DS consoles.
  • The Unlaunch installer is no longer launchable on the 3DS theme, as with no successful fix attempts, past versions have caused a crash when attempting to launch it.
  • The frame rate feature has been removed, as it has served no purpose.

Bug fix (Wood UI theme)

  • Screen position has been fixed when opening the theme.

v27.2.2 (hotfix)

Bug fix (Wood UI theme)

  • Reverted improved icon scroll speed to fix icon load bugs.
    • As a result, scrolling through many entries at once (by holding Up/Down or via touch) seems to no longer cause a crash.

v27.2.1

10 May 06:09

Choose a tag to compare

Includes nds-bootstrap v1.5.2

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new? (Wood UI theme)

  • Brightness icon has been added! Visible and functional on DS Phat, DS Lite, and DSi consoles (the 3rd of which runs in DSi mode).
  • Added better scrolling!
    • @stripes-8: File list scrolls when the selection passes half of the list rather than the very end. As a result, you can now scroll using touch by holding the 1st or 4th selection down (or top/bottom half in list mode).
    • Scrolling speed has been improved!
  • @stripes-8: Directory path is only displayed if directories are shown. (This is what chyyran did before.)
  • @stripes-8: Changed list view line height from 11 to 15 to make the file list easier to read. (This is also what chyyran did before.)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed where DSi-based themes would show a Guru Meditation Error screen when running from certain flashcards such as R4i 3DS RTS (r4ids.cn), and/or when exiting from nds-bootstrap.
  • Some custom fonts are no longer shown glitched on flashcards.
  • Fixed where launching a GBA cartridge in DS Classic Menu causes TWLMenu++ to restart.
  • Fixed GBA ROM getting overwritten by save data when launching a GBA ROM in native GBA mode, and if the file extension is uppercase.
  • Fixed loading flashcard saves stored in SD TWLMenu folder with flashcard kernel.

Known bug (Wood UI theme)

  • Scrolling through many entries at once (by holding Up/Down or via touch) may sometimes cause a crash. (Not tested in list mode.)

v27.2.0: Return of Wood UI

06 May 08:41

Choose a tag to compare

Includes nds-bootstrap v1.5.1

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • You've asked, we listened, and now after nearly 4 years, the Wood UI theme returns to TWiLight Menu++! Thank you for your longtime patience!
  • @mentusfentus, @DieGo367, and @edo9300: DS Classic Menu has been improved to closely resemble the original DS/DS Lite menu as possible, with additions such as analog clock, calendar, name display, and more!
  • Added a feature to change where DS(i) save files are placed. By default, they are placed in the saves folder in the same location as the ROMs, but can be changed to place them straight in the ROM folder, or in a saves folder within the TWiLightMenu folder (similar to RetroArch).
    • Placing the saves in the ROM folder will disable save slots in order to not slow down loading the ROM folder too much.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a long-standing bug where the icon palettes would sometimes appear glitched in the R4 theme and DS Classic Menu.
  • Some minor fixes.

Known issues

  • As the Wood UI theme has been re-written using the R4 theme as the base (as a way to work around the SD corruption bug), elements of the R4 theme have been left over, such as the message box (used by per-game settings and cheat menus, as well as general messages), English-only text, and the code which loads the game icons and infos (scrolling speed may vary, as a result).
  • Pressing START in Wood UI will open DS Classic Menu.
  • 5px-wide clock colon images will not display properly in Wood UI.

v27.1.2 (hotfix)

27 Apr 01:49

Choose a tag to compare

Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++:

What's new?

  • MBK settings from the DSi header of homebrew ROMs will now be set. Should fix support for such ROMs that may happen to use differing and/or odd settings.
    • Does not apply to DSiWarehax and/or CycloDS iEvolution users.

Bug fix

  • Fixed an overlooked bug which caused a white screen crash when the language and/or region select screens would appear. (A common bug for first-time users.)
