CRASH

Does NOT cause a crash on A9LH.

 

[AxlSt00pid]

Just tested and yes, it crashes

And it also crashes for me on the title screen of Heroes of Ruin (own dump), not letting me play EDIT: Yes, it worked fine on A9LH, and it even does the same for 2 cias I found online

EUR New 3DS XL 11,4 Luma + B9S

 

[Mat37]

Also crash for me

 

[Kubas_inko]

interesting. crashed for me too. But in reality, who is going to this so often?

 

[Mat37]

Don't know, probably a random action that medicap performed and he said like wtf when it crashes

 

[smallmedicap]

Thanks for confirmation you guys.

This is one of several crashes that is making me stick with A9LH for a couple more months. I realize that BS9 is better but I am going to wait a bit for some of these things to be ironed out.

(I have a feeling that this particular crash might be related to the DS game issue that happened with update 11.3 (or was it 11.2?))

I realize what you mean, but that is not how testing software works. When a bug is found, it is reported. It doesn't matter how obscure it is. (One reason for that is that the problem behind the bug it could cause a related issue elsewhere at another time.)

same here maybe b9s will get patched in the future. I hope anyway!

 

[smallmedicap]

(It might actually be on the Luma side... Luma not playing well completely with BS9 yet.)

Either way I do not have an account on GitHub. So if someone that sees this does, feel free to add a link to this thread or just copy the relevant info.

Trust me I have so many crashes with b9s right now the only reason everybody is making the change to b9s is because a9lh cant support .firm files correct? Why couldnt a9hl just release an update that supports .firm is it because the thing is dead?I dont Know myself.

It's not really that big of a deal because the B9S glitches (and the glitches other programs like Luma might have with B9S) will be ironed out in a few months. I don't blame them at all for having glitches, it's a new piece of software.

And as for people like you and I who want to still use A9LH for a bit we can use the latest version that had .bin support (Luma3DSv7.0.5). We might be missing out on a couple new Luma features for a bit... but that is not a huge problem.

Which brings me to your last question. As far as I am aware some of the new features only work on B9S and wouldn't have worked on A9LH. So if that is correct then that is why Luma isn't releasing an arm9loaderhax.bin version as well.

oh its a new software,ok I just thought it was something nobody payed attention to because a9lh was just better suited at the time sorry

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

and i did upgrade to b9s like a few days ago i just didnt think i needed to upgrade right off the bat because as soon as i got my 2ds and modded to a9lh all of a sudden b9s started popping up for future updates of luma i didnt feel like it since i did enough that day and sorta forgot about b9s untill recently

According to Aurora herself on a GitHub issue page (can't link now, came across it weeks ago and probably in the closed section), that DS connection crash is a bug on Nintendo's side and she has fixed it (or, hided it, in her own words) in a more recent commit. You'll probably see it fixed in the next official release.

[Yepi69]

USA new 3DS XL
11.4 + Luma 8.0 B9S 1.2

Crashes for me too.

EDIT: Latest Luma hourly fixes this.

 

[Cuphat]

It's not a B9S issue, it's just that Luma 8.0 turned on exception handlers by default and caught something that was just silently crashing unnoticed to begin with in this case.

That fact that it was the first release with Rosalina and that didn't go as smoothly as one would hope meant there were some crashes elsewhere as well. Rosalina probably should have been in an open beta before being tossed out as the only working release for the latest version of B9S.

Getting a nightly of the legacy branch will probably result in it running just as smoothly as the latest A9LH version.
