Yea i already have that tutorial on my bookmarks its just that some steps on the thread are done differently than the video so it confused me
well the video you posted is for 2.6 and outdated thets why its different you can follow it if you want but when done you will want to update your rxtools version so you can autoboot cfw so why not kill two birds with one stone and just use the newer guide

I was going to follow the guide on the thread but when i downloaded that rxTools given there i saw this "rxTools nightly build buggy and incomplete"
so i thought its not that good , is it stable ?
just a stupid question : what do you mean by "you can autoboot cfw" ? rx mode boots automatically when i turn my 3ds on ?
and thanks alot you really helped me out ^^

i use the 9-28 build from this link RxTools Nightlies by @WhoAmI? it's the most stable build i have used

yes that's exactly what i mean by autoboot here is a video of it https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=LcAMVMpXjzo
also the only stupid question is an unasked question

i couldnt find that option but i found a firmware.bin here :
its gonna work too right ?
first remove that link it violates gbatemp rules
and it may or may not work (differint versions of rxtools use different firmware.bin files) but one you make yourself will work for sure

the only part of the process that is dangerous at all is updating sysnand and even that is safe if you read first and follow the instructions carefully

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    cuz I didnt like fallout 1 that much
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I played Fallout 4 on PC, I enjoyed it honestly. Not my favorite game on earth but at the same time I didn't hate it at all lol
