I'm not that surprised to read the news with all the disrespectful and ungrateful comments thrown her way. Myself, and the majority of the community fully support Aurora, but unfortunately its the bad apples around here with the loudest voices...
Looks like the bugs are being squashed. Hopefully a new stable release soon.Who really care if they left GBAtemp or not ? :/
All it matter is:

It hasn't worked that way since... many versions, actuallyso I activated the game patching option and slipped
the romfs file ( 001b4100.romfs) into the /luma/titles/00040000001b4100/ directory but the game still starts in english.
Usually, people who release hacks provide a download of only the changed files (because it's the least illegal way to distribute a hack), you can use thoseSo, to change voices, I shall identify the sound files for the voices and put them there. How shall I open the bin file?
No difference in basic layeredfs (single files from romfs) functionality between Luma 7 and 8edit: sorry, I forgot to tell that I was under Luma 7.0.5 (through a9lh). And no, I won't change.
The thing is it's not a hack apart from changing audio files. It's what they call a "undub". Since all thos epeople only provided rebuilded CIAs with the foreign audio files. I had to download one of those CIAs and extract the decryptedromfs.bin file. But since I had no idea how to open the resulting file to extract each audio file (and have also no idea what those audio files are), Iwas stucked.Usually, people who release hacks provide a download of only the changed files (because it's the least illegal way to distribute a hack), you can use those
Or you can extract the whole romfs using a program like 3dstool:
3dstool -xvtf romfs name-of-romfs-file.bin --romfs-dir romfs
and just copy everything

Unfortunately something broke it (I think I missed a " in my convoluted SQL expression somewhere) and I don't have time to work on it now because of finals.The site of the night releases, is undergoing some update ?
I hope you can solve this problem, thank you very much for your attention.Unfortunately something broke it (I think I missed a " in my convoluted SQL expression somewhere) and I don't have time to work on it now because of finals.
Why won't you change?@Ryccardo
Thank you.

perfectly doable, yes. want to use, absolutely not; developers don't like to work with arm9loaderhax. they only did because it was the best thing we had. given how quick and easy it is to upgrade it was also not worth it keeping around an old and shitty-to-work-with entrypoint just because everyone is using it.- Ditching all other entrypoints and force users to update to B9S while it was perfectly doable (and far more clever) to at least keep A9HL (widely spread and still used actually) and B9S together for a while and slowly encourage (but not force) ppl to switch to B9S
again, the upgrade process is mostly painless and safe, it's impossible to screw it up accidentally. so even if they did not do the initial setup, upgrading isn't that hard. in fact it will be made easier soon with GodMode9 scripts.- Thinking that every one flashed their 3DS/2DS theirself (mostly untrue) so those vast majority of ppl don't know how and, even if they know, will not risk entrypoint upgrade for a ZERO end-user gain.
there was private beta testing a while before its release. but testing by a few people is nowhere near as effective as testing with a thousand. by the way, don't forget the legacy branch, which is Luma3DS w/o Rosalina that works on b9s 1.2. useful until all the major issues with Rosalina are sorted out.- Introduce clearly untested and unstable feature (Rosalia)
it was functional and usable but had issues; putting it into the rosalina module makes it easier to work with from a developer standpoint.- Pack other features in it to force it's usage (for example the locale support) while the "older" solution was functionnal and still usable, for now.
it was not even because people reported issues with Luma3DS/rosalina, it was other issues with gbatemp in general. I don't think you paid any attention here.- Leaving the community because, for good reasons, ppl report bugs and problems while it was clearly possible to avoid them for the most part.
Even my younger brother, who can't send an email, was able to update to B9S after I pulled up the instructions for him. Plailect's guide makes it ridiculously easy to upgrade to b9s.Trade your place a few second with 70% of the users who don't even know what a CFW is, most of them simply relied to someone to install CFW (A9LH entrypoint) and REALLY basic stuff like LumaUpdate et FreeShop. All thoses ppl don't even know there is a new entrypoint and simply don't CARE because their actual implementation work !!
I talked to some CFW user's friends with ZERO computer knowledge (we all know many) beside launching their internet browser and go to FB and other social stuff and, as I said, knowing they will gain NOTHING as end-users, they don't care about B9S and have no intention to even try to switch, no matter how "easy" we (more experimented users) think it is.
Eh, I agree with forcing people being necessary here. With a9lh a hard stance was never really taken which resulted in way too many entrypoints each with their own quirks which made development way harder than it needed to be. By dropping support for all but one it makes development 10x easier which allows more time to work on actual features.And as a side note FORCING ppl is always a very bad move and causes problems like Luma is actually facing. A good dev of a so called "noob friendly CFW" must always think of those "noobs" before doing so much changes and break things that was worked before !!
I actually agree with you about Rosalina.Like you agreed, keeping both A9HL and B9S would be possible, not forcing stuff inside Rosalia too. It would have been far more clever to keep the stable branch "noob-friendly" and let ppl with more knowledge using the nightly branch to test stuff, report bugs for some times and ONLY THEN, after bug fixing and giving time for most user to slowly upgrade to B9S (it will take some months, don't be fool), it would have been time to introduce new stuff and finally ditch A9HL.
