Hello everyone,

So, three days ago I decided to download melonDS to experience online multiplayer for myself. Except there is an unknown problem that prevents me from loading any game... So you see, I have three Nintendo DS systems : an old 3DS XL, a new 2DS XL and a DSI XL. Using the DS rom using an R4/Twilight Menu to extract all the necessary files (bios9.bin, bios7.bin, firmware.bin) seems to work, but it seems using them on melonDS makes it fail... I checked the sizes accordingly to the FAQ, everything seems right. But loading any game just fails, it stays on a white screen, nothing happening. I tried a lot of things, I even tried using another computer with the same files but yeah, same problem. I really have no clue why it fails. Do you think it could be coming from the fact that all of my consoles are hacked (boot9strap/TWMenu++) ? Or maybe from the fact that the consoles are european ?

Thank you for your help.

the DS mode firmware from 3DS and DSi systems do not contain the firmware menu. Can you check whether you have Direct Boot enabled? If not try disabling it.

Just tried it, doesn't seem like it changes anything, enabled or disabled

I managed to fix the problem. The issue was coming from all my boot7.bin files. I found out with HxD that the first 32 bytes of my boot7 files differ from a working boot7 file. This with all of my three consoles. Do you guys think there could be an issue with the dumper ?
