Snipped for space, and thank you for your input.

Ah, that makes much more sense! Thank you for the help. When I get my cartridge, this will help immensely!

This may have been said, but I'm using WinSCP and it takes a while to actually connect (it says it failed to connect multiple times before it actually works) and when transferring files, sometimes it gives me an error saying the connection is broken. I'm still able to complete the transfer, but I have to click "retry" several times. Interestingly, the same error appears on both my 3DS and my computer, and it actually does transfer a small amount of the file each time I click retry. I'm using the CIA version on emunand 9.4, with sysnand 9.2 installed.

All right people, here's a functional ftbrony cia (somewhat slower than ftpony but works with Windows Explorer as well plus it doesn't cut the connection on big files anymore)
hippy dave, Huntereb

Edit: now contains CIA, 3DS and 3DSX versions.

Fantastic. It's not 100%, but I can actually transfer things beyond 100 KB now.

Thanks.

Are you using piratesephiroth's version? If not, you should, he fixed the file transfer problem.

when used with windows explorer (on win7), an error occurs, error is "502 invalid command -> OPTIONS /HTTP/1.1"

Yeah that happens sometimes, I have no idea why... it says some crap about a proxy.
Stick to WinSCP.

 

[TidusWulf]

Windows Explorer? You can FTP with the OS's filebrowser?

 

[hippy dave]

Don't see why not. OS X's file browser (Finder) has FTP capability, read-only tho apparently.

 

[piratesephiroth]

yeah, just use ftp:\\IP: PORT in windows Explorer and you should be able to connect.
ftbrony is kinda buggy and sometimes this doesn't work though.

(Better than ftpony that only works with WinSCP, heh)

hi, I wonder if anyone can answer this question. I have ftpony installed - can I use it to change the launcher file on my 3ds? I would be going from 2.7 to 3.1. My sd card slot is a bit dodgy which is why I don't want to take the card out itself if i don't have to.

[hippy dave]

I haven't tried but I don't see why not.

 

[RitchieRitchie]

You don't think that the fact that the card has to be updated with the new launcher file will make a difference? Or is it the case that once you're in gateway mode the launcher file is redundant?

thanks for taking the time to reply,

Yeah it should work fine. If your SD card slot is not functioning properly you should consider buying a new one and replacing it.

thanks, will give it a go!

 

[Skyrider]

Just making sure of things.. this FTP app can only connect to the large SD-Card on the side of the 3DS. correct?

Hi.

I tried it out with FileZilla. It works, I can connect, but somehow, when I try to enter the "filer" folder of SaveDataFiler, it returns and error, and can't list the directory.

WINSCP works better. I was trying to use FileZilla for a while. I just downloaded the portable .exe of winscp and leave it in a "3ds" folder on my PC.

 

[djxfade]

Sound good, will check it out. Can you verify if its able to access the "filer" folder? Its a pain in the ass turning of the 3ds, taking out the SD, modifying a save, then inserting the SD again, re-enter emunand etc... every time
