How do I go about doing this? I want to play gba games. I tried just staying into emunand and installing the agbfirmpatched. It installs fine to nand. If I hit l and try to install to sd I get Summary_invalid_argument. Descriotion_invalid_combination. Can anyone one help?

Here is an FBI build that installs to nand.

You inject it into health and safety on SysNand via Decrypt9WIP

Remember to backup all Nands before doing anything
shame on you :P

Yup, make sure to keep the original dump so you can put it back if needed. They are very small, just rar/zip it up and email it to yourself.

After injecting now h and s wont open. It says there is an error and I need to redownload it from the eshop.

All I want to do is be able to play gba games. I thought you needed FBI on both sysnand and emunand to do this. Is that not right?

You need to install DSi and GBA cia's on both Sysnand and Emunand if you want to run them from Emunand..

In order to install them to sysnand you need FBI, to get FBI you need to Inject it. To inject it you need to use Decrypt9WIP. You went through the whole process of extracting H&S and merging it with FBI then injecting it right? You didnt just inject an empty file?

Is it New 3DS? or Old 3DS? What kind of hack do you have on it? is it A9LH?

Yes I extracted just like I did when I first set up emunand. Its a n3ds. Using reinand.

Is there a reason why it wont show up with my other cfw?

Your other CFW is for EmuNand.. mini Pasta is specifically to enable unsigned code in SysNand. You only need to do this to install stuff to SysNand.. once installed even though they wont show up without minipasta launch they will still run and work from Emunand.

I keep getting s red screen when I click on pasta. Here is the entry I put in boot cfg:


{
title = "MiniPasta";
path = "/3ds/MiniPastaCFW/MiniPasta.3dsx";
offset = "0x12000"

No offset
Remove that line
Also don't forget to hold your button/s to disable menuhax from booting(if you have it set to auto boot) after you select mini pasta

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
    Karma177 @ Karma177: @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really...
