Homebrew IronHax & YoutubeHax - FREE HOMEBREW!!!

[DragonFireXY]

So youtube is just an alternative for ironfall for those who didn't get it in time right? If someone already downloaded Ironfall there's no need to download the youtube app correct?

No you have to get both. Just do it if you can.

We don't know for certain, but Smea has made it apparent that Ironhax and Tubehax are complementary, not exclusive or dependant on one another. Still, he also said that there is no reason not to get YouTube, even if you already have IronFall. You should do it, actually. It's better to have some sort of backup plan in case the one of the exploit is patched in the future.

No you have to get both. Just do it if you can.

No, that is not true. You don't HAVE to get both. It's a good idea to get both, sure, but YT is not needed for Ironhax to work, nor the other way around.

Smea said you should download YT regardless if you have Ironfall or not! So grab it while you can!
EDIT: Double ninja'd! WoW!

alright thanks

Your best choice is to return that 3DS, and buy one that has a firmware of 9.2.0-20 or lower.

Alternatively, buy a Sky3DS for around ~$90. It will allow you to play 3DS games.

download the damn app why wouldn't you? look at it this way what if Ironfall exploit was limited like ninjaHAX 2.0 where the YouTube exploit gives you access to kernel just get both.

Where did you read that the YT does give you kernel access?

He's not claiming that Tubehax gives you kernel access. He is making a case for downloading both Ironfall and YouTube, hence the "what if": it's a hypothetical situation. Better download both and cover all your bases than regret it later.

he is saying what if, not confirming it.

Sorry, misunderstood his statement. I'm not English, so my reading comprehension in that language is a bit lacking...

UPDATE: The game has now been pulled from the US and EU eshops, but I am not sure about the Japanese eshop.

As smea stated Ironfall: invasion isn't available in Japan

 

[DutchyDutch]

Just hoping smea releases it soon. Theres a lot of cool stuff coming out soon for the homebrew scene with more to follow.
He should take his time though, I don't wan't a unstable exploit that could brick my 3DS

Actually, considering he originally said CN or OoT would be needed once to install the free hax (presumably ironhax) but then said later on that no purchase would be neccessary, I'm starting to think that YouTube might be a free alternative to using CN or OoT to install ironhax.

Has anyone actually played Ironfall and know if it supports QR codes or some other form of data input? Otherwise I don't really see how Ironhax could work without another entry point to install the exploit with.

The YouTube entry point might be usable for all the same things as ninjhax and ironhax, but it would likely be inconvenient to access since you have to go through all the steps to reach google.com and then find the exploit loader from there. However if used to install ironhax it would only be needed once.
It seems likely to me that this is smea's reasoning behind telling people to download the YouTube app even if they already have Ironfall. It all makes sense if you look at it that way.

No way to know for sure until it's released though. But if it turns out I'm right I'll be the one going "called it"

No qr codes or anything. Atleast not in the free version.

I just can't wrap my mind around YouTube being needed by Ironhax in order to work, given how Smea has been addressing this situation. He tweeted:

do we still need ironfall? or is this an alternative?
having both is best.

yes, you should get youtube if you have ironfall. yes, you should also get it if you don't have ironfall.

And he posted on Reddit:

i think a new entrypoint that works on latest firmware, is completely free and doesn't require any special hardware is a big announcement. i'm sorry that you disagree, but i don't think there's anything i can do about that.

This all makes it seem that TubeHax is neither an alternative nor a requirement for IronHax. Having both will provide synergies that will make it a better solution for homebrew, but not having one doesn't prevent you from using the other.

Until he releases the exploit, we won't know. It will all make sense then...

PS: I've been meaning to use this for some time now. All aboard the hype choo-choo!

The youtube app also have save data so maybe we dont need to do the process of going to google.com and finding the exploit website each time. Only the first time could be needed to install the exploit on the save on the youtube app and then running it at boot or something similar. He also said the he had plans for those who couldn't get ironfall and I think that's what ythax is

 

[zoogie]

What concerns me is that "privacy policy" page in the youtube app could be on the net, and if so, it could simply be fixed by editing the google.com link to stop the escape from youtube.

 

[ayanekochan]

I've been following this thread and I really want to get youtube on my 9.2j n3ds, but is it worth it to link nnid to get it? Currently I've only been using pasta and playing cias via sysnand (no emunand) so if I were to link nnid should I separate them first before I do so?

I expect they will do that but there might be other ways to escape YouTube as well. The best thing for them to do would be to update the app patching the bug and require everyone to update to be able to use the app.

Maybe you're right, but then how are people supposed to install ironhax?
He's being purposely vague so it's hard to get much out of what he's saying, I still think my theory makes sense but I guess yours does too. None of the things he has said points either one way or the other but when you put it all together I think my theory makes the most sense. There are things he has said that don't really make sense in your theory, every piece fits together in mine.

What is the lowest FW Youtube would work on?

*edit*

seems fw 7.0 is lowest. so my dreams of getting this on 4.x have been crushed.

 

[Azel]

what if youtube is an alternative to go.gateway-3ds.com(by spoofing youtube.com with a router with another website with a 3DS homebrew exploit) (only for homebrew, you need to run it everytime, if you only have this) and inronfall can run homebrew offline, if you installed ironhax with the youtube app exploit?
