    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Just wondering out of curiosity (thankfully): is there any sort of software brick that can't be fixed with NTRBoot? Assuming that the hardware is fine and that the SD card has everything it needs. As far as I know, NTRBoot only relies on the bootrom, which can't be changed, and everything else...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Some cartridge games, like kiosk demos, can be started just by powering on the system while the cartridge is inserted (no need to start them from the home menu). I assume that the region lock won't apply to that either, but idk. I don't have any kiosk demo cartridges on hand, but the autoboot...

    Does Luma3DS also disable the system's region lock when auto-booting games (kiosk demo cartridges, for example)?

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I've been looking at the instructions for ntrboot, and I have a question: what would happen if the Luma3DS boot.firm file was used before installing boot9strap with the SafeBS9Installer.firm file? They seem like they're the same "type" of file... hopefully nothing bad would happen if someone...

    So, as I understand it, NTRBoot can sometimes unbrick a 3DS when nothing else can... but how would someone get into that scenario with modern CFW anyway? Like, if I'm using Luma3DS and I'm not carelessly changing stuff in sysNAND, do I even need to worry about getting a brick that bad?

    Is it possible to tell if a 3DS had CFW installed and then uninstalled? Wondering specifically about Luma3DS + boot9strap. Thanks in advance :)

    Gaming Anyone recognize these 3D models?

    Right? It's pretty weird. I don't think that these models were meant for the Poptropica game at all, honestly. The "large stage" seems more like a test/example than anything meant to be shown in a game (the edges of the flat grass would look kinda lazily done, at least), and although the "toy...

    Gaming Anyone recognize these 3D models?

    I was looking through the files for Poptropica: Forgotten Islands and found two interesting 3D models in its files. They don't fit the game at all and look like they're pretty high quality. They're named "LargeStage0.bch" and "ToyPierrot.bch". Does anyone recognize them? The game was published...

    ROM Hack Help extracting files from Poptropica Adventures?

    Hi! I'm trying to extract files from a game named Poptropica Adventures, but I can't find any in the game's NDS file! When I open it in Tinke, only the following files are listed: resdata resindex sound_data.sdat ftc/ arm7.bin arm9.bin banner.bin fat.bin fnt.bin I don't have...
