sorry if this is a newbie question, but i was under the impression i could setup rxtools using the mset exploit without a flash cart. after going to their website the instructions they give us requires one for the setup but i thought we didn't need one. is this possible? would love to not have to load my browser every time to run this exploit.

thanks for your help!

For now (before rxtools 3.0 release), if you want to run rxtools with mset, you need to downgrade to 4.2 using this video tutorial (this video is made by an GBAtemp user, I just forgot his name and Google failed me to search for his thread). Then use Spider exploit to install Rxtools with MSE.

When rxtools 3.0 is released, I heard we will able to use mset with firmware 9.0-9.2.

It is possible, you can downgrade sysnand config on 9.2 or downgrade to 4.x, and install mset using web exploit with code.bin
Tried this a while ago for hours but had no luck with it.
Ended up having to use a DS flashcart to install it. And yes I was using the right payload.

Are you able to use mset exploit to run on downgraded mset from sysnand 9.2? I've downgraded and installed mset successfully. However, I've tried many times to run (DS Profile) with no luck. It's ended up with an error to let me restart the console.

I'm using the 2.6c rxTools Cakehax edition using a modified code.bin that was posted in the thread, it works fine with a downgraded MSET on 9.2 sysNAND. You might have to search for the specific files needed though.

Is there a way to force the mset downgrade. i tried different versions of 3.0 rxtools and I am stuck with the MSET is expoitable error after attempting the downgrade. The problem is that MSET is still 9.0.

Please note if you use older FBI version, you need manually delete old "mset" file. devmenu_2x or latest FBI version is preferred lest you delete wrong file.

get the CIA using 3DNUS and have it pack it to CIA
this is how I got mine.
The invalid one did be generated by 3DNUS 1.9.
Repeated trying it more than 4 times.
No mistake on ID and version number.

If the CIA has no problem, then rxTools 2.6 is unsupported.

mset 4.x can be used with this info
0004001000020000.cia (v3074)
this is for the Japanese MSET

Load 0004001000020000 into Title ID and 3074 into version

I used rxTools 2.6 official tool generated msetdg.bin instead.
Now it works on rxTools 3.0 b8 with mset loader 4.X DG rxTools.dat.

thats good. that was easier than when I tried msetdg.bin. mine said it was downgraded and stayed at 9.x MSET and would not me retry the downgrade, which forced me to use a CIA instead.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine

    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
