What the Arm9Loader™ does is apply the patches contained in arm9loaderhax.bin, so, you could just replace the Luma3DS™ payload with another one.

Part of my sticky actually covers this ^_^
But basically, CFWs only apply patches to the NAND and are basically only a means of reading the NAND. But you can safely switch and or multi-boot CFWs on the same system. In fact, I am running 5 different CFWs right now on my 3DS and I have never suffered any ill effects from doing so.

As a dev its ok to have 5 (extended testing)
But why the heck do you need 5 CFW's?^^

Because I am one of the Temp's most well known testers and CFW enthusiast.

how do I multi boot corebink and Luma?
I am going to be honest with you and don't take this personally. If you don't know how to do this, Corbenik might not be the CFW for you. Corbenik is not intended for the faint of heart and is intended for powerusers/devs. Still, you can use Luma3DS's chainloader to boot into Corbenik.

so How do I multi boot (where do I place files and stuff like that?)
Just setup the CFWs like you normally would, then rename the launchers. So say you are going to Luma3DS and Corbenik. You setup your launcher (using Luma3DS as an example) and keeping the Luma3DS launcher named "arm9loaderhax.bin" and renaming the Corbenik launcher from "arm9loaderhax.bin" to let's say "Corbenik.bin"
Then you just place that bin file into the "/luma/Payloads". Once there you launch into the payload menu and you can launch Corbenik that way.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way
