I replaced boot.firm with the latest nightly with B9S v1.1 and everything works good. GBA injects, Acekard 2i, 3DS games. I jumped the gun too soon on this one. Next time I'm just going with stable/official releases.
Sighax from derrek is just an installer. After using derrek's installer properly, and as long as you used Boot9Strap as the chainloader, you will end up with an identical setup as if you used SafeB9SInstaller. That's the only difference. It's just a different installer with less sanity checks.

I don't think so - isn't derrek's run completely from NAND, but b9s gets the payload from the SD card?
Really? I asked when SigHax.com was first released. I think it was in a thread with SciresM replying, but I can't remember exactly.
Doesn't SafeB9SInstaller install the chainloader firm to NAND? And that itself loads Luma from SD?

I've been asking that since the changelog for 1.1 was released. Nobody responded yet. Is the face simply because they list the typical Nintendo release notes of system stability?

Not yet. The only thing that can use this is the latest Luma nightly but that still has bugs, being a nightly and all.

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

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!

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:
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 just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
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 -
