So something weird happened. With the EUR version of Mutant Mudds Super Challenge I installed it and the title icon showed up. When I tried to start the game it would just get stuck in the Nintendo 3DS logo loading. I had to hold the power button to restart.

After restarting console I tried to open the Manual and the weird thing that happened is that top screen went black after a while and bottom screen showed a message saying that my SD card had been removed and I had to press home button to return to menu. I pressed it without realizing that that couldn't be it as I have A9LH installed and it doesn't work without an SD card.

So after pressing home menu button the console booted back to EmuNAND and I am checking now and everything seems to be working fine. So I don't know what happened with that game. I did try Mutant Mudds and that one works.

Don't know what could have happened there.

Might just be a side effect of a game that requires crypto fixing. I can take a look at it later today to see if I can duplicate the behaviour.

In regards to the SD card ejecting thing, A9LH only requires the SD card for boot, once you're booted you can technically remove the SD card all you want :)

That happened to me with Fantasy Life when i manually typed the title id and enctitlekey...

Not sure if I could duplicate it tho. I can try later, but that wasn't on the latest version, and i didnt have wings.json yet

So this is kind of weird.

Searching "The legend of zelda a link to the past" does not crash CIAngel
Searching "Donkey kong country 2 diddy kong quest" does crash it

I guess the limit is like 38 characters? Kind of a downer because I have found literally no other way to bring up DKC 2 for the SNES VC.

i just uploaded https://github.com/llakssz/CIAngel/releases/tag/v0.51
you can generate a ticket now, but i will replace this with installing a ticket later.
(unless anyone really wants generation AND installation, you want them separate?)

today the search function should be improved, thanks to a contributor.

.

Generating a ticket means we don't have to visit the e-shop for the title we downloaded if we have the .json file, right? I would love that!

A ticket is mostly useful for downloading titles through the eShop (Or I think newer versions of FBI) instead of through CIAngel, actually. Some people seemed to like the ability to generate tickets though.

If it helps you guys out, I discovered CIAngel crashes when the search query is the same length or longer as the text that says "Please enter text to search for:"
So basically if you put in characters up until one character before the colon, it should not crash.
Unfortunately there is no way to get a game like Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest because of the ridiculously long title. But I thought you might find that useful. Anytime you reach the colon or pass it, it crashes. Anything before that does not crash it.

Not if running 9.2 sysnand with updated emuNAND. It'll lock up. But with updated sysnand mode indeed you can.

I took a look at the current search code, and it seems to have an exponential growth based on the length of the search term. It's going to take a rewrite of how searching is done to resolve this.
