I'm confused about the naming rule for the payloads button.
It seems that "def_Decrypt9.bin" does not match with the rule below on the Wiki.

(Optional) Rename your default.bin to def_<payloadname>.bin, make sure it's not longer than 13 characters including the ".bin". (e.g. def_d9.bin)
That's incorrect (ShadowHand!11!!!). It can be any size. I meant that I can't put "default_" because FAT has a limit of 12 characters for short file names (which is what gets searched in the payloads' name). But when you name a file, like 20 characters, a 12-characters short file name is also created (if you name a file def_loooooooool.bin the short file name will be something like DEF_LO~1.BIN). The short file name is perfectly fine to boot the payload, but I look in it to find the payload.
This is also why the select payload is currently broken in 5.1 (I pushed a commit to fix it, I'm probably making a quick 5.1.1 to fix this): select_aaaa.bin becomes SELECT~1.BIN, and I look for SELECT_.
 
def_D9.bin
down_D9.bin
left_Uncart.bin
right_E9.bin

These are the names I use. Like em? go ahead and use them. That's why they are here. There should be no reason for a really long name anyways. (Yes I have D9 twice. No its not a mistake. Yes its easier to use the D-Pad.)

D9 = Decrypt9
E9 = Emunand9

@qlm2009 @shadowofdarkness Tagged to help with naming.
@Aurora Wright tagged just because I can. ;-)
 
In the section for fixing gba/dsiware and games like super smash bros it said to change the path of ARN .bin but i didn't see any file like that in the package. Only the arm9loaderhax one.
 
There's somehow to turn on language emulation to all games generally and not having to make a txt file for every game? My system is japanese, and EUR/NA games are being loaded in JP(Pokemon, bravely default, etc). This didn't happened with GW(Besides with pokemon), but it's now with AuReiNand :(
 
My case makes doing that a pain

How do I install this? I removed anything associated with rxtools and copied the latest version to my SD card. Now what.... There are no other instructions. This guide says to go to the github wiki and the github wiki says go here...
 
No. I am just switch from rxTools to Aureinand. I have all of the necessary files just stumped on how to get it to load.
You have to load it through the hbl.

Now that you added a config menu with options, would you consider adding an option to enable the recovery menu for those who still want it?
The recovery menu is a bad idea. If you can access that, you can access the unbricker, which is much safer.

Would it be possible for the splash screen to stay there for the whole duration of the boot and not for only half a second? I feel like having something to look at for 7 seconds would make it pass faster and stuff

Oh ok. Screw that. I will stick with rxTools. I hate trying to load HBL when with rxTools I can just launch the dat file. Thanks though.
You can load it the exact same way. Just switch the Aureinand.dat to where rxfail.dat was. Aureinand is literally the easiest CFW to setup.

I know why it was blocked. But that also prevented the users from getting rid of the update nag, and I understand why it had to be done in the old versions of Aureinand. But now that we have a config, I can't understand why we cant have it as an option.

I'm not looking to actually run anything in the recovery menu. The whole point is to get to the point where you can click the cancel button

Lol. I will try this. Hopefully I will see why everyone hates rxTools once I get this working.
You probably won't see a difference, but for an a9lh user, it's a big and very important difference (FIRM patching+others stuff).

Why not just update?
