This is gonna a huge undertaking, and my understanding of C# isn't too great so I'll need staff and testers.

[GOALS]

1. Gain the ability to view .pkm/.pk6 files

2. Gain the ability to edit+save said files

3. Add a design and UI into 3Fhex

4. Add main file support

5. Test and fix bugs

6. Release.

3FHex will be open-source and coded in C or C#. I need all the coders and testers I can get my hands on.

I don't know yet, I'm currently looking at the ironhax installer source for pointers on where to start with this.
I'm not good at programming in any language at all. :P
I do know the basics but just that, but I'll be glad to help with testing!

As a side question, why 3FHex?
Was it a typo of 3DHex? :P

It will edit main files from sd? (Backups from save manage / tdvs)
Yes, hopefully but first I want to get the app to read the name of a pokemon in a pk6 file. Needless to say it will be a long time until that comes (if it happens)

Here's my recommendation:

Make it so that 3FHex reads the .SAV files directly from the root of the SD.
Here's the info you'll need for reading and detecting the proper .SAV per game and region:

POKEMON Y:
  • USA/EUR/JAP - 0004000000055E00.sav

POKEMON X:
  • USA/EUR/JAP - 0004000000055D00.sav

POKEMON OMEGA RUBY:
  • USA/EUR/JAP - 000400000011C400.sav

POKEMON ALPHA SAPPHIRE:
  • USA/EUR/JAP - 000400000011C500.sav
This is EXACTLY how Gateway stores the .SAV for each game in the root of the SD.
There is no variation in the names between regions.

    touchscreen?????
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    is there any gba homebrew that would offer use for that?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The Touchscreen makes using system menu options for brightness and filter adjustments easier
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @ColdBlitz, who said anything about touchscreen?
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the video title is
    "We Now Have A Touch Screen And OLED Modded Game Boy Color"
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    On screen keys would be cool if the rubber ever fails
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I feel like at that point might as well go emulation lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One of those RG things
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Some people just like using original hardware for the hobby point of it
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You can easily buy replacement buttons but it's a good fall back
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    on screen keys would be cool but the gba screen is pretty tiny though :(
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd rather use emulation but it's cool regardless again the main point of the Touchscreen isn't just for buttons but for menu options
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    would be way better for menu options
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    although I have huge doubts anyone would be able to make homebrew that would give support for the touch screen
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    then again theres still people who develop games on systems as old as the nes for fun
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    (
    micromages is amazing btw)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I doubted 360 emulation would be possible
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    yet here we are seeing ps4 and even some (very experimental
    ) ps5 emulation
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ps5 emulation? Why
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I always thought Saturn emulation would straight up be impossible
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just the atchiture is insanely complex
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's why it annoys me when people rant about things being impossible when it comes to software some things should just be focused on more than others
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    because they want to flex their insane developer skills ofc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    We have ps5 exploits where's an article talking about ps5 emulation?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    if i wanted to play gb games on a touch screen device i would just use my phone
