You need to put them yourself. Here, Section 1.Hello. I am having an issue when trying to upgrade frm aureinand in that i have no payloads to put in the payloads folder. Are those generated automatically or am I using such an old version that I am missing things?
Thanks

I have read the wiki. It was not in the wiki. apparently I had a very old version which did not have the payloads, just the sirmware files in the rei directory. I love how people assume.
Finally got it, the guide didn't mention anywhere that I needed to have a firmware.bin in the luma folder from an NTRFIRM.Are you sure you have the .dat file on the root of your SD card?
It's actually mentioned on how to move to a new one from an old oneThere are no provided payloads. You can download whatever payloads (Decrypt9, Emunand9, etc.) you want and put them there.
Which is probably mentioned in the Wiki. Somewhere.

https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Installation-and-UpgradeFinally got it, the guide didn't mention anywhere that I needed to have a firmware.bin in the luma folder from an NTRFIRM.
Luma3ds's installation guide didn't help either since it just says that I don't need that anymore for 5.0+.
I hope someone can update both guides, they certainly weren't helpful in this situation.

"Starting from Luma3DS 5.0, you don't need firmware.bin anymore."
It says "If you want to use NTR, place firmware.bin in the luma folder""Starting from Luma3DS 5.0, you don't need firmware.bin anymore."

Yeah, but wtf is an NTR? It was never explained or even mentioned on either guides so I had no idea which instruction to follow.It says "If you want to use NTR, place firmware.bin in the luma folder"
That could be it. I'm honestly not sure because this is the first time I've tried to personally hacked a 3DS.You shouldn't have needed a firmware.bin just to get it to run. Maybe your EmuNAND isn't completely updated (or your SysNAND wasn't completely downgraded if it's a fresh EmuNAND install) and is running a mix of files from different firmwares?

I just got this as a hand-me-down from my friend, and it was on 4.5J and running EmuNAND through rxTools.
I then updated it up to 9.2 using this guide: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki , then just ran EmuNAND9 to install a RedNAND.
But all is well now, so far. I'm about to start on Part 5 of the guide, so I hope everything is fine.
No version has payload files. They are optional. I don't use any. Of course, I'm using BootCTR9 defaulted to Luma3DS. Decrypt9 boots a little faster, I can hotkey over features I don't use, etc. Besides, I'm a firm believer in having an app that does one thing and does it well (especially if it's going to be the first thing that runs).
There's no right or wrong way to set them up. You can place whatever wherever you want it. I like having Decrypt9 on up, Godmode9 on down, EmuNAND9 on left, Uncart on right, ReiNand on X, and Cakes on Y. But that's me. Note that you'll have to cut off the first 12000 hex bytes of the Cakes.dat file (easiest way is to load it in a hex editor, hit Ctrl-G, tell it to go to 12000 hex, hold shift, hit end, goto File, New, paste, then save it) and save it as something like "y_Cakes.bin" i.e. you want to run that from the Y button. Almost everything else comes with an "arm9loaderhax.bin" that can just be renamed (if, for example, I did want to use Luma to launch Decrypt9, I'd simply copy the "arm9loaderhax.bin" from it to the "payloads" folder and rename it to "up_D9.bin"). I'd say it's a good idea to have a backup plan. You never know when your favorite CFW will break something (case in point, DS mode not working in 5.4 on O3DS) and you might need to use something else temporarily for that until they get it fixed.
You shouldn't have needed a firmware.bin just to get it to run. Maybe your EmuNAND isn't completely updated (or your SysNAND wasn't completely downgraded if it's a fresh EmuNAND install) and is running a mix of files from different firmwares? Oh well, it won't matter once you have A9LH installed -- it will be running a fully updated 10.7 after all (except for those firm partitions, of course).
