The upside of this, is that banner icons on some DSi-Enhances games will animate, which normally doesn't happen in a flashcard menu.
That's the greatest thing I've heard in a very long time and I now know what project I am going to invest in next.

Or emulate them. I'd argue that nearly any $400+ computer can run DS games at 90% speed or more.
I built an old core 2 quad machine with integrated intel graphics and I was able to play DS games full speed using retroarch.

They can do the impossible (assuming that you use any other entrypoint):
100% boot rate
Updated SysNAND CFW
No need for emuNAND
Unbrick without a hardmod
Bragging rights :^)
And the best part is, if everyone worked together and got A9LH, then Margen67 could finally stop complaining about "Menuhax peasants" and shut up about the whole "A9LH master race" thing!

Kinda off topic, I installed TWL-Slot 1 on my ads with A9LH and my flash card worked but today I redeemed the Wario Ware My Nintendo reward and the game does not boot, somebody knows what might be happening? And it's not only WW it's also my Zelda Four Swords game.

Is TWL_FIRM patched? Make sure it isn't, 'cause Luma3DS auto-patches it and AGB_FIRM as well.

FBI doesn't let me install the Home Menu via and the NS system module cia, the other 2 are installed no problem but they do not fix the problem.

According to the Luma github I need to drop a Luma3DS.bin file to the program they provide, however I don't have a file with than name I have armloader9hax.bin & firmware.bin in the Luma folder. I dropped the armloader one and it did nothing :/

Must be the wrong guide.
This must be it: https://gbatemp.net/threads/re-install-agb-and-twl-with-this-tutorial.421920/

I think whenever someone has A9LH they think their 3DS becomes Jesus Christ and can do the impossible.
This is signature worthy

Also there has been such an influx of topics asking to play DS games for free. Not like flashcarts are expensive to begin with.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
