It does screen init on its own (it even does to display errors and the configuration menu).
Just tried latest beta build and Works all fine! Thank you!
Could you please add enable/disable signature check option like cakesFW? This can be useful to check installed System CIAs or games CIAs are legit or not.

If you think this is pointless please be ignore my opinion.

Thank you.

I have a problem,i can not get into the second emunand when i power on with R+B in updated sysnand mode,every time i just get into the first emunand;but if i use cakesfw i can get into the second emunand.

my system:o3ds+a9lh+10.7J(sysnand)+9.2J(first emunand)+10.7J(second emunand)+aureinand(V3.11)+updatedsysnandmode

(Figured out how to set the keys, needed playloads folder inside aurei, and the cool thing is i can rename the bins to anythnig i want and they boot! amazing job. dev)

im trying the test build i see this upon boot : Press A to select , Start to save reboot.

i can choose to tick 3 options , and lets say i just want to use emuNAND normally and be able to run NTR firm at times.

which of the 3 do i have to tick? Updated SysNAND mode/Use pre-patched FIRMs/Force A9LH detection !?

do i have to tick only PrePatched Firms?

Is there any way to hold a button to change the firmware.bin in emu? I currently have it on 10.4 but also want 9.0 and 10.2 to be options but not default

Anyone have the Aurora's compiled a9lh fork? In previous page, I saw someone brick. So, I'm confused which one isn't the buggy one. Aurora's fork is faster right?

Dude! The config menu is so freaking awesome! I mean, it is a little addition, but this will make it so noob-friendly! I mean, being able to set a configuration as opposed to creating the blank files will clear up so much confusion for some people. This is just so damned cool @Aurora Wright! Like seriously, this is really really cool! I can confirm the test build is working on both my N3DSXL and O3DS just fine~! Can't wait to see what else will come of this config menu... Man, I can just see it now, like really guys, this is some cool shit. :yay3ds:

Someone bricked because they attempted to upgrade using a Stage2 from a different fork. If you want to switch forks using safea9lhinstaller, you need to do a full reinstall AFAIK. You can only upgrade using stage2s from the same fork.

Then I can use the stage 1 and stage 2 that Supster posted right? Can I use the secret_sector.bin, firm1.bin, and firm0.bin from Plailect guide? Do I need to use my otp.bin again? I have a9lh installed. Sorry for these noob questions.

If you're using a CFW, why would you care if they are legit or not?

I've been working on a cool new thing (Supster ruined the surprise) :D
I've tested it a bit and everything seems to work as expected, but I want to be sure.
In the meantime, this is a test build: http://www118.zippyshare.com/v/ebSTFhJ9/file.html
Basically, no more flags. There's a configuration menu which can be called by holding SELECT on boot. It appears automatically the first time you boot the new version, there you can toggle the options that were "flags" previously. You can remove the "lastbootcfg" file as that is now bundled in the new "config.bin" (which holds the configuration too). Then, AuReiNand now actually prints error messages before shutting down (I hope we'll have less noobs XD), I moved the emunand.bin and reboot.bin to a "patches" folder (which seems more logical), I hopefully made the FIRM patching slightly faster (only applies if you don't use pre-patched FIRMs) by removing two memory searches, and finally AuReiNand will auto-delete the pre-patched FIRMs when you switch to/from(?) A9LH or, in the future, new patches are added.

Just updated to this from an older build, and I used to have decrypt9 booting on holding L&R. Since I was updating I read that it now needs to be renamed to default.bin, I did this, but on boot holding L&R it boots into emunand. Struggling to see what I have done wrong? Default.bin is un aurei folder. Cheers

Maybe it's because I do not have the slot keys bin files? Thought they were just needed for decrypting partitions and all I am bothered with is NAND backup/restore. Is it this?

Yeah, i learned it the hard way :P (left with a bricked 2DS, soon fixed anyway)

You need to put the default.bin file in \aurei\payloads

Aurora Wright, I have installed your No init A9LH fork and used ARN. I have not been able to recreate this (the splashes with no screen init and ARN 3.11):

I guess this overwrote my A9LH install with Aurora's fork then. It is working perfectly. I wasn't having issues with flickering before, so I can't really account for that, but the no-SD shutdown is working as expected, so I guess everything flashed just fine. My splashes are still showing too, so all my answers I got myself I guess, haha!

NOTE: he used Dark Samus's no screen init updated before this and he currently used ARN 3.11 with the payloads from your no screen init fork I compiled and sent to him.

Due to this, I personally won't ever do a payload 2 update alone, unless more checks are put in place. But it's not like doing a full install is hard now.

well..I have answer for your question but it's difficult to explain in English. sorry.

most of the reason is for legit cia (system titles) not for gamas so I would like to have both mode for the safe reason.

Then don't install non-legit CIA's. There are more options to install Legit CIA's besides CFW

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @Xdqwerty I like how the game had the middle ages 1000AD, the dark ages 600AD.It was great seeing the post robot apocalypse 2300 like Terminator and enter the matrix. some of mad max and fallout. 2300ad though it could had used more elements instead of just a generic ai uprising. It was a great idea for their judgement day to be 1999 Y2K.

    -great additions if they would have made an expansion or dlc in my opinion would be finding out humans trapped in a matrix -

    a follower having a cyborg character living tissue over metal endoskelleton like terminator, and the synths from fallout
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    4After Zeal fell it would have been good to see more ancient eras. Perhaps Sumeria based in one area, then Egypt based in another area, Greek based in another area, then roman based in another area before the middle ages.---------

    ----between 1000ad and 1999 is a big gap they should have had the age of revolution like the american and French Revolution

    then the cowboyy era in one area of map and the Industrial revolution/age of enlightmentthen a ww1 and ww2 and a cold war era
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    they could have added 75,000 bc like assassins creed. zeal was already establish in 12, 000 bc , soething before the kindom rose
