@xz11 Excuse me xz11, I recently applied for the team. I understand that my email may not have been read yet as this was very recent, but the reason I mention it is because I would just like to inquire if these are still being checked or not so that no time is wasted if recruitment have been discontinued. Thank you.

But there's no way to implement CFW without some kind of exploit

That's correct, but changing the ROM (by translating it) will break Nintendo's signature. To run ROMs without Nintendo's signature, you need a CFW. As far as I know, Sky3DS only runs official, signed ROMs, please correct me if I'm wrong here...

This Sky3ds card is very hard to get your hands on,I really don't know where to get it from.They all seem like untrustworthy websites,so my only bet would be trying to find cubic ninja

Will there be a way to play the translation project without any homebrew?

You'd be able to run it with just homebrew (on the latest FW you can only use OOT + Powersaves or Cubic Ninja at the moment, but apparently a new exploit's releasing tomorrow) using HANS, but otherwise you need CFW.

I'm on firmware 10.6 or 10.7 there is no hope of installing custom firmware for the translation through a hax method,except for that new exploit GorillaRIBS mentioned

Tomorrow’s hax should work though - it's supposed to be QR code based (like cubic ninja). And so long as you aren't on 11.0 you can still downgrade, so you're fine!

Recruitment is still ongoing. Please check your Discord.

Ok, my application is in also! What should I expect to see in discord (sorry, first time user)?

It's still a bit off, but, if you're unwilling/unable to use 3ds exploits, you could always wait until the citra 3DS emulator was stable also. It seems to be making great strides right now.

Also, this is no longer a problem. I downgraded from 10.7 from browserhax using this guide:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/noob-friendly-guide-to-downgrading-your-3ds-from-fw-10-7.418125/

It may take a few tries of the hack freezing, but do not worry. It's the hack itself being so unstable. Once you boot up to the homebrew menu once, the world is yours!

This ^^^ I've made it three times already, for me and for some of my friends, and it works like a charm.

@xz11 Thank you. I will await any responses.

@Jonesy47, as for Discord (Make sure that you have confirmed your account through the email if you are a first timer), you will most likely get a direct message/DM if you are accepted. At the top left it shows a blue icon that is three heads. You can click on this to view any messages. Hope that answers your question. P.S. Just an edit in case it's not a contact through a DM, you will receive a notification if it's anything else. This is always highlighted in orange, so just look for anything unusual or any changes like that.

Oh, you're part of the team? I hope you aren't inserting your own music into the game like you originally wanted to.

You are a troll, there's no other explanation.
Does troll equate to "someone you disagree with" for you? Because that's what it seems like.
Anyway, dude openly stated he wanted to hijack the previous fan translation effort and insert his own music into the game because he didn't like some of the game's preexisting tracks, which isn't the point of a fan translation at all.

As a musician, I am in the process of designing pieces that I hope can be implemented into the game. In Chapter 1 of the game, which takes place in Japan, you'll notice that the soundtrack feels very much influenced by Asian culture. I feel that this is very appropriate in that it uses traditional Japanese overtones, melodies, and other familiar chord structures. The problem I have with it is the jump into England. The soundtrack for Cross Examination, Court Opening, and other such melodies are the same. I feel that this hurts the players absorption in the game. I think that instead the OST could feature more English compositions, such as the work of Beethoven. (Of course none of this would be any sort of major change from each original piece. Perhaps the biggest thing would be a "remix" of sorts, similar how to Dual Destinies uses the Objection! them from T&T, but with different instrumentals and slightly tweaked melodies.)

I wouldn't feel comfortable having someone who doesn't even understand the point of a fan translation and wanted to hijack the project be on the team proper, simple as that.

Can't speak for the whole team, but I'm pretty sure that's not an option.

Dude, they already stated what they will and won't do, and you keep bothering with issues that nobody ever talked about. They already said they would only translate the game and that's that. You seem to be looking for trouble -.- That's being a troll -.-

  • 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)

    run h2testw on it
