modded console is not an issue, you know?
just update your console, the softmod will still work.
if you have CBHC, you just need to re-install the autoboot setting (by launching the "do not touch me!" and selecting hbl, no need to re do the browser hax).
CBHC/haxchi are not deleted , only the "cbhc autoboot info" is overwritten on EUR console because of the system menu update from 5.5.2E to 5.5.3E.
5.5.3 has the same vulnerabilities than 5.5.2
nothing is patched
every hacks still work
homebrew work
internet work
if you don't want to update, you can still update your game by ... using the program from the thread you just posted in? nnupatcher allows access to eshop/game update with an outdated or spoofed firmware version.
but why would you not want to update? except loving problems by staying on an outdated version, I don't see a reason.
if you "can't" update, because you tried and it failed, you probably still have the URL filtered (DNS, proxy) or the update folder deleted. you need to undo that to update.

Okay, I'm a bit confused maybe.
NNU patcher does not by pass the DNS hack, so if I want to update games I need to remove DNS hack first?

The DNS filters the System update server, not the game update server, not the eShop access.
The NNU patcher removes the local verification (version check on the console) before accessing internet to check if there is a game update, which is not filtered by the DNS.
If you are on 5.5.2, there's no real reasons to keep the DNS and use nnu every time.
5.5.2 :
- disable DNS filtering
- update the console to 5.5.3
- re-enable the DNS filtering
- if you had CBHC installed, and you are on a EUR console, you need to reinstall the autoboot : launch "do not touch!", go to the menu, select "launch HBL", reinstall CBHC over the same NDS game. (don't mistake with another game!)
if you really don't want to update, you can spoof the firmware (it should work for game updates) by installing only the "version.bin" update manually, but really it's half of the update. they updated 2 files (the version and the EULA, spoofing, not updating the EULA is useless)

Hmm, okay seems like the following procedure worked for me.
Disable DNS filtering
Update all games
Enable DNS filtering again
Disable DNS filtering

I made for myself a NNU Patcher forwarder and I'd like to share it, but I'd rather know if FIX94 would agree (since I used his Haxchi Installer and the nnu patcher) not like there's any copyright or something it's just that i dont want to be hated ;-;
If he does accept then I will share it (onto a brand new thread)

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!

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:
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
