Anyone know if I can transfer games saves from ROMs and eshop games (from an R4i deluxe) over to a new gateway card with the omega firmware? About to pull the trigger on one since all the hoopla is pretty much taken care of since the brickgate days.

Also, any real difference with omega and sdxc vs sdhc performance? Thanks!

nevermind my question from a while ago, i gave it a swing, and it looks like indeed you don't actually need the gateway cart to do actual rom dumping.....can't wait until there's inevitably a way to LOAD said self dumped roms without using a gateway cart, but that's another subject entirely, and already heavily discussed/debated elsewhere on the forums.

How much storage has your MicroSD?

It's 32GB. Damn that was really stupid! All I had to do is to press select to choose one of the games. The most stupid is that I knew about select button to be used, but somehow I was sure that if the square is empty that means it is not read at all.

Problem solved. Thank you :lol:

I had that problem in my first few minutes with omega, too.

Hey guyz, have some problem with emunand.
So i've made every step until this one. --- Updated red card, downloaded and inastalled system update for 3ds and thats it (in settings i saw gw3d 7.1 blah-blah-blah).
Then i restarted console and now i cant launch gateway mode with L in DS profile. It simply shows me menu with color and name customization.
Whats wrong? 3ds Firmare is still at 4.1.
Do i need format all my cards and have another go with installing gateway firmware and so on or its safe just to copy launcher file and try again with booting?

I know for the older versions of gateway firmware, one could use the launcher.dat to load up the gateway software without a gateway cart for example to dump NAND. Can this be done to dump carts too with the new firmware?

Yes to dump nand.

No to dump games.

actually you CAN dump games this way, i gave it a shot. Of course they aren't of any particular use as of yet though without a gateway or one of the other cards.

What? Yes. But you'll require a GW card for dumping games. It's their new anti-clone/piracy protection.

I have dumped a few already without a gateway cart, just running the launcher.dat via their exploit (using a dsTwo card to load the exploit from) I haven't looked at the dumps too in depth yet, but they are in fact being generated....I think the protections might come in play when you try and actually run them? Although I did see that there's a utility out already that strips the extra stuff that's in gateway dumps versus scene dumps.....

Oh? Hm. My mistake then.

I guess the protections come out when you try to enter GW mode then.

makes sense........although i have a bit of distaste for gateway, they've done a great service for the 3ds community as a whole with some of their tools (I feel a bit more safe having a NAND dump for example, even if it requires soldering to make use of it.....and I like being able to dump my own games as well, and if/when a rom loader to load stuff from SD comes along, i'll be the first in line, so I won't have to haul all my own games around everywhere)

Lot of questions:


i have played while ds games and now it seems to be safe with 2.1 update. I know what i have to do to this point:


"10. Go to the end of the menu on the right and you will find a Format Emunand option. Choose it."

well very first time played on 2.0b2 and if i remembered it right, i have done this step before. Now i have played DS games, do i have to do this 10. step again?


there was my first question, second:


In 2.1 omega, to i have to INSTALL EMUNAND. can i just skip this because with my luck i will update sysnand :P i havent never turned wifi on and probaply never unless there is noobproof way to install emunand or/and someone make up to date video whole emunand installion.



And third question: can i play all games without emunand?

Got a noob question:
I ordered a Gateway but currently I'm playing a game on a retail cartridge. I read that it's possible to dump retail games with a new function of Gateway Omega 2.1, so I asked myself if it would be possible to just dump the game I'm playing in order to use the dump+savegame on my Gateway. The thing is that i just rented the game and have to give it back in a couple of days and I'm afraid that someone who rents it after me, will erase my savegame before I can finish it.

So is ist possible to "dump savgames" by dumping the original retail cartridge or will the savegame just not get dumped at all so that I would have to start over again?

Hello everyone, I am a noob with a question.

Recently bought 3dslink, arrived today, I did the setup but was alarmed when i could not get to this stage:

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b...C-B64F-476A-81CE-B31ED2E5C815_zpshp4uu1wk.jpg I pressed L + Nintendo DS Profile but it just gives me a blank screen indefinitely.

I need this menu to backup nand and for emunand so can someone help me find it or have I just bought a dud card? Thank you. Your help is appreciated.
