Hey everyone here is a simple guide to setting up RXTools on your 3DS system (New 3DS not supported at this time). After many hours of my own trial and error and hunger to understand custom firmware and the whole setup process, I have made a simplified tutorial that should help you get into rxtools quite easily. Thanks guys!

I think that is a good idea, I just wish I had more time and energy to keep popping out tutorials. Now that I have successfully downgraded my new 3DS, I'm also doing tutorials for that now, so even more time & energy. Don't sweat it though, I'm still chugging along trying to get more out for everyone.

There isn't even a 3.0 out yet and you speak of 3.2, think you confuse this with NTR.

 

[ssrpgvita]

To Update Nightlies Build just drop Rxtools Carpet to the SD?

Bro I'm begging you. Stop copy and pasting the same question over and over again. It's really annoying.

How to Update to a Newer rxTools Version​

Download the latest RxTools nightly build here or here, or get the latest release/pre-release here.
Download and install Python version 2.7 if you don't have it
Direct Windows installer link
If you are using Windows, right-click the rxtools zip and open Properties. If at the bottom, it says the file is blocked, check "Unblock" and Apply. This should take care of any problems you have with the following steps.

Backup and delete any "rxtools" folder that you may have on your SD card before doing the following steps!

Place:
1. the "rxtools" folder on the SD card root.
2. the "firm" folder inside of the "rxtools" folder. How to get it:

• Run cdn_firm.py in the "Tools" folder. It will generate a firm folder in the same folder that cdn_firm.py is in. The firm folder must go into the rxTools folder like so: SD:/rxtools/firm

3. For ninjhax users, you also need to replace the rxtools.3dsx and rxtools.smdh found inside the ninjhax folder in the rxtools download zip.
It should look like this:
SD:\3ds\rxTools\rxtools.3dsx
SD:\3ds\rxTools\rxtools.smdh
