Hacking Can we finally boot GW with A9LH?

Can we finally autoboot GW 4.0 launcher.dat with A9LH?
I use Ctrbootmanager9 to boot Luma or D9 but can I add a new entry for GW??

they use their own arm9loaderhax payload. not compatible with existing setups, you need to downgrade to 2.1 and install their own, and you'll be stuck with it.

Really!??
Well, that kinda sucks! Doesn't it?

Even if i already have the otp files pre compiled?

as it stands right now you have to go to 2.1 again, and install their own arm9loaderhax.

Hmm,as i remember,in a9lh I get the otp files then compile one of them then get back to sysnand9.2 then install the hax from the homebrew channel.
Now in GW i need to install it on 2.1?

yes you must be on 2.1 to install their a9lh. you won't be able to easily switch away from their fork either, so you'll be stuck with using GW only for now.

Wait for GW to make a A9LH payload compatible with current A9LH. Going back to 2.1 and being stranded with GW A9LH (even if only temporary) is less than ideal.

Well...

No, nothing has been publicly released yet. Anything you find out there right now is alpha/beta.

Maybe we can have:
-A9LH Sysnand
-A9L GW Emunand

Choose the one to boot with Luma? (Autoboot sysnand or emunand)

The problem is that GW's payloads aren't compatible with existing implementations.

That being said, it's possible to make an implementation that supports both. I may look into it if I feel like bricking later.

The only realistic option is to have an EmuNAND with 9.2 installed and boot GW from that. You can even use Menuhax if you want to speed up the process.

Well @liomajor already did it. But it basically had GW support hardcoded in it with a key. Which isn't ideal in my opinion (that would mean I can't put GW behind a password from a9lhay...).
Or maybe I didn't get exactly what it did, not sure.

I'm aware liomajor implemented it into an arm9loaderhax payload itself, but I was talking about implementing it into a chainloader.

Well , tbh it's to be expected, as their intention is to not lose revenue and the cart has always had DRM lock down from the beginning, so the user is forced to use the red card for full functionality.

I'm ditching the cart at the weekend and going the a9lh cfw solution. Only thing keeping me back was .3ds drag n drop and cheats, yet from the looks of things, stuff is gonna get messy.

People would be silly to install GW's own A9LH solution because it's basically a point of no return. Good luck returning that console back to a state where you can install scene standard implementations.

Nevermind I'm tired.

Don't forget to mention, if you downgrade using their tool on the New3DS, it will brick your system.
