I grabbed build 9656fe1 with LumaUpdater. I have game patching enabled but didn't have any patches specifically for Pokemon Sun. When saving a PokeFinder picture to the SD card the first time, it seemed to freeze for several seconds. The second time, it was nearly instant. Both times it saved successfully. Hope that was somewhat helpful.

Hi Aurora, I hope I won't bother you too much with this huge post.
I'm sorry, I probably should've asked you about this earlier.
There's one game I can't make LayeredFS work with, which is Zelda: Tri Force Heroes (TitleID is 0004000000177000).
I'm familiar with this feature, I've tested 5 or 6 games with Luma's LayeredFS and all of them work flawlessly (couple of them actually didn't work before with NTR, but they do now with Luma).
But Tri Force Heroes just ignores modified files, no matter which of latest Luma's version I'm using, or whether I have update for the game installed or not.
IIRC, I've managed to make it load modified files once, with OnionFS plugin and no update installed (the game crashed on creating extdata though), but I can't reproduce it anymore, at least not with latest version of OnionFS.
This makes me really curious about what can be wrong with that game (or what I can be doing wrong).
P.S. There was also a problem with Majora's Mask when files from update's romfs weren't redirected.
I tried it with that test payload you uploaded here a week ago and I could only get a crash with files that aren't present in update.
But I believe that it may already be fixed in 7.0.1, I just don't have modified files to actually test it with latest versions of Luma.

Testing MM's update now but there's a high chance 7.0.1 had fixed it already.
EDIT: yes it's fixed

You are a goddess. ^^
Testing will be so much easier for me now!
Sorry that I didn't report about this issue earlier.

What do I do to get LayeredFS running?
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
Your files (i.e. code.bin) go in SD:/luma/titles/TITLEID. Any romfs files go in SD:/luma/titles/TITLEID/romfs. Replace TITLEID with the game's title ID. Enable "Enable game patching" in your Luma settings. Launch game.

a friend of mine got a really weird problem with his o3ds eur( got al9h on board ( of course from plailect guide)):
after 2 days of 3ds just lay down on table he cant get to home menu ( lumaconfig and godmod works fine
)
just get black screen on boot
his payload consist only godmod,
he dont have "Enable loading extarnal FIRMs..." option enable.
Already tried different SD,6.6, 7, 7.0.1, 7.0.2, deleting config file, "I get a black screen on boot" from wiki ( even though we managed to get "errdisp" option on 6.6 and get svcBreak - screen below, with loader.cxi, system wont boot neither)
mostly strange in all this - 3ds wont boot without SD ( same simptoms)
also got some crush dumps from 6.6 luma
upd1. forget to mention - no cart is inserted, he also tried ctrtransfer to 9,2 - to no avail, also - he dont save his nand backup or otp file, recovery mode working but dont change a thing

How do you update the version of Luma you're using?
It's been a few months since I used my console, but I remember it being somewhat simple, just downloading a file and that was it. Can't find the link now, though, or perhaps there's another way now? I'm using MenuHAX, not al9h, if that's relevant.

Does anyone know if Luma's new LayeredFS feature is compatible with game updates and/or DLC? For example: Animal Crossing New Leaf. The game got the Welcome amiibo update back in November/December that added a campground and other things. If I were to change the music found in the campground via LayeredFS, would it work with the update?
The file I would replace can be found in the update's romfs, but not in the normal version. Am I making sense?

Hi,
As I mentionned before on this thread, I don't understand how the romfs structure is supposed to work.
To be accurate, I wanted to patch my Taiko cartridge directly with Luma, so I basically did this :
Obviously, that's not working at all. I assume the romfs should have a particular name - or file extension - , or be in a particular folder ?
I'd really appreciate some help here. Many thanks in advance !

@Xdqwerty, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! is the Japanese version of the game, different settings/characters/songs but otherwise identical mechanics. I played that before I knew about Elite Beat Agents lol. Both fantastic games https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!_Tatakae!_Ouendan+1 -
