Homebrew Been out of the Scene for 8 months.

[PRAGMA]

I was out of the whole 3DS scene for about 8 months or so now.

Can anyone tell me if theres been any more advancements to the Scene? I heard that people moved from RXTools to something new? Also is NDS Games possible to be installed yet?

You can see my current system below (The version of the CFW is outdated but my OFW is still that 9.2 one)

Luma3ds CFW is one

arm9loaderhax, once installed 100% boot rate and brick protection.

That as well

 

[NoNoNeko]

Oh yeah, you missed a lot. We now have Arm9loaderhax, which completely gets rid of the use of emunand and boots much faster. The new CFW is Luma3DS.

NDS can't be installed yet.

https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Installation-and-Upgrade follow this for Luma then follow this https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki for A9LH

Awesome! Can you explain what exactly they both add apart from 100% brick prot and boot rate?

There is a work in progress port of Desmume, it's still very early though and not very compatable, but I'd keep my eye on it.

Luma3DS just boots cfw with patches and already supports A9LH natively. A9LH is just an entry point to get access to cfw early in boot. It can load Decrypt9 and other Arm9 apps early in boot, too.

https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki follow this guide and dont skip anything or you'll risk a brick. my first try was a brick but since then the tools/guide has been upgraded are much safer and easier to follow.
edit: next 3 went smoothly

https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Installation-and-Upgrade follow this for Luma then follow this https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki for A9LH

Oh btw how do I install Luma? Do I needa follow the Upgrade steps or the Installation steps? Do I need to fully reformat my SD card and get rid of EmuNAND?

Bit confused now - Should I install Arm9 first then Luma?

Just follow the installation first. You don't need to remove EmuNAND as it can boot into that for the A9LH install.

https://gbatemp.net/threads/wip-3desmume-ds-emulator-for-3ds.430223/ It looks like it doesn't work on o3ds yet, but like I said I'd keep my eye on it.

I see - It looks like I need to actually compile Luma? Can someone do this for me? xD

luma is a reinand mod
and a9lh the most superior entry point we have
but that 100% thing they through at you is bullshit you can not recover from nativefirm0 or nativefirm1 bricks . . . but luma is supposed to keep your system from touching those titles when updating
