This should work on all consoles and regions, but it requires the developer version of luma and the firmware.bin from the luma3ds wiki (Hint: the link to the archive is somewhere on the "Installation and Upgrade" page.)

If it doesn't, post the pidf.dmp here :)

So the one from the wiki is the latest 11.0 firmware.bin? Coz I'm a little confused, because the guide said 3.x-4.x nands but looking at the file it says it has been uploaded like a week ago.

Yeah, you use a modern firmware.bin to launch old NANDs. I know it's a bit confusing :P

Cool. Now if someone made BootNTR Selector compatible, too.
If they want to add it, sure. Here's a link to the source: https://github.com/astronautlevel2/BootNTR/

I know almost nothing about ROP, so I can't really help with that :P

Well if it works the way I think it does, then updating the ROP payload will probably be more complicated. Am I correct in thinking that fixing BootNTR is more or less "just" a matter of finding the correct memory offsets and updating BootNTR to use them, much in the same way a gameshark/game genie code would be updated to work with a v1.1 or v1.2 ROM?

Kind of, you can take a decrypted k11 binary from 11.0 and 11.1 and look at what data was at the 11.0 offsets and find the corresponding data in the 11.1 binary.

The only issue is the dbgKernelCacheInterface offsets, which seems to have offsets that are out of range of k11. They're probably other k11 objects in axiwram that aren't in the main binary, and some reversing work is required to find the offsets for those.

  • 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

  • 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
