Ok, that worked! Thanks again.

I got further now, to
Section III - Configuring Luma3DS

Made it to part 4. Press Start to save and reboot.

After I pushed start, it hung at a black screen on reboot.

Edit--however, holding select gets the Luma3ds loaded again.

keep going, you're going to restore sysnand next with Hourglass9.

Oh no...I don't have NANDmin.bin

When I followed the instructions, back in prep work it said:

" Ensure NANDmin.bin and NANDmin.bin.sha are in the /files9/ folder on your SD card. If you do not have this backup, keep reading, there are instructions in Section IV for you to follow. "

So I just kept reading from that point and kept going.

how do you not have NANDmin.bin? do you have anything with "NAND" at the root or files9?

No...nothing that has Nand or resembles Nand. Checking the sd card, root, files9, nothing. Not even in the copies on the desktop of everything it said to keep a copy of.

Back when I came to that step, when it said "keep reading" I assumed one of the following steps would be the backup at some point.

You'll need to restore 9.20 ctrnand then I think?should be in the guide.
Think you actually missed out the backup. When doing the 2.10 transfer it asks you to do a back up.

better option is to just use system update, since Luma3DS can boot 2.1.0.

Ok, thanks for your advice, qq12345 and ihaveamac.

I'll try a system update tomorrow, it's 3 am here so I have to stop for the day. How do I boot into 2.1.0 right now? If I just boot up on its own without holding select or start it just goes to a black screen.

If it's o3ds you can just do that then! N3ds wpuld brick iirc.

find the step that says to delete files under "Nintendo 3DS". do that and it should boot.

Ok, I'm back at it. I have done this, and now I am in the home menu of 2.1.0-4u.

This is where the guide says to update. On a different 3ds, I've screwed up doing this step and updated to 11.1 and locked myself out, so I hope this is safe to do on this new one currently on 2.1.0.

As long as you have a9lh installed you're fine. If the console will not turn on without the SD card and you're using an old 3DS you can update.

Great, thanks.

So I got the "unable to update. 3ds will now restart" error.

I already have DNS on auto.

It restarted fine back to 2.1.0's home menu, just sitting here now.

Edit - Tried to do the sysupdate multiple times, got the error every time at the end. Can access the net fine, so it's not that.

    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 @ 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 @ 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?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @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 @ 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 @ 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!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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 @ 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 @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @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 @ 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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.

    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
