I had placed an issue about this on the github, it's an issue on how LayeredFS is implemented and how the monster hunter games are programmed/compiled.

What's IPS patcher? Does it relate to helping with ghosting on IPS screens?

Iirc it's a universal method for patching rom hack releases into the actual Rom (which isn't included for legal reasons)

I guess you are saying that Luma now supports these rom hacks but still, you have to patch them by other means? I mean, you can't patch them in Luma?

Luma patches the game on the fly if you have the game patch in its respective folder.

Thanks, that was helpful.

does the layeredfs feature support MHXX? Im getting a infinite 3ds boot logo. same for monster hunter stories

I couldn't get it to work myself. I might have done something wrong when testing it though. ROMFS are actually something new to me, so I had to spend an entire night studying them and how they work.

this may be a ridiculous question ... but now that i have updated luma on my CTRnand ... is there any way to say load godmode9 for example from nand? ... i know luma has a chainloader and will give a menu of various installed payloads but just for giggles is it possible to copy them to CTRnand and run them from there? ... i have experimented but had no luck so i figured i would see what the community says about my odd idea (i do like to experiment alot so i can learn what works and doesent work) ... i keep regular backups for just that reason lol

also i dont really use DSi titles or stuff like that so over half my nand is still unused and i figured i would try to put some of that space to use for somthing

i read a lot about updating after having it installed, but it is safe or possible to install it if i already have 11.4?

If you are on 11.4 and didn't hack your system, then it's too late. You need to wait for another exploit to be found/released.

I believe d0k3 added CTRNAND loading support a while back. You have to have the payloads on CTRNAND in the luma/payloads directory.

What? I did not even understood the last part. Is this something for those who are gonna mod their 3ds or something?

No, you have to remember that you can boot luma WITHOUT sd card now, so to do that you copy the luma update file to the ctrnand so that it can be possible. That is what i said.

seems luma3ds 7.0 not working with menuhax boots into black screen,
with luma3ds 6.6 working good.

luma3ds 7.0 stable version not working for me with n3ds a9lh got the error "An error has ocurred: Failed to apply 1 FIRM patch(es). Press any button to shutdown"

Just for info:
I also had problems using the Luma3DS.3dsx that's inside the v7 to boot with menuhax (black screen, cannot even boot the config screen).
Using the 6.6 file instead solved the problem.
Thanks for your hard work

@Aurora Wright so you somehow got prot_boot9.bin ? wow didn't thought that it 'll be out before hedge dumps it.

I'm also interested in knowing this. Does it mean v 7.0 is ready for when/if sighax is released?

from the release notes I can tell that N3DS should work fine
