Yes it is installed, the Real Time Save cards work with the L+Down+Select tested on my DS/DS Lite/DSi XL/ New 2DS XL thinking it might be device specific. I swore the Bootstrap menu loaded in the past so I even downloaded the latest Twilight Menu for R4 files started fresh. Still same results. So I came to GitHub to check if the latest 1.2.1 would fix (latest TWMenu is still 1.1.1) but no fix.

Have you installed the autoboot files? If so, they might be out of date, so they'll need to be updated.

I just redid it all again latest bootstrap was updated, placing the default kernel _DS_MENU.DAT files then manually loading TWilightMenu++ allowed it to work is there newer Autoboot files that I'm unaware of?

The new autoboot files should already be part of the latest TWLMenu++ version.

I had the same issue, but then I think I installed an older version of Twilight Menu++ and everything worked fine. Until today when I updated TM++, even changed the flashcard loader files, and it still doesn't work. I'll try more things and I'll keep you updated.

If I load Twilight Menu through the original kernel for the R4 card, it works for me as well, but it's so damn annoying. I'll try finding a way. Does it work for you with the twilight menu kernel provided by them? I'm on an R4SDHC smart update .hk
