So are you using a .3ds file or a cia file, how are you trying to open the game ?

 

[Skeet1983]

.3ds format. Both dumps with Decrypt9 and GW dump method freeze on game start. It froze first time when game tried to create SD data. Froze 2nd when I tried to delete the corrupted save...

Should I delete GW save it created for game? I remember that GW creates saves using title ID as file name... is that the same for pkmn sun and moon? Anyone with GW get game to work?

Oh I haven't tried .3ds format to be honest, because last year during alpha sapphire people said that the .3ds version used the same title id or whatever which was easier to detect online and could get you banned, which is why I installed cia. I only use .3ds for games that I don't use actively online like Ace Attorney.

Is there an easy way to convert .3ds to .cia format?

I just got pokemon sun working via gateway rom by changing the Anti-Piracy from '5' to '0'

How do I change that? I used GW to dump from legit cart? Is that reason game froze when creating data on SD card?

Download a hex editing program (such as hxd for example) open your ROM file and go to address 0x1FE where that value will be '05' and change to 00.

That seemed to fix it, for me. Playing it right now via ROM.

I have the program HxD or whatever it is called. Are you familiar with that program? Also, how do I find that address?

I have also Luma and A9LH installed. I use my gateway for the 3ds games. I have downloaded the .3ds from a real game cartridge. The game launches with gateway but freeze has the creation of saves. I deleted the save and is the same thing again.. I guess the problem is the security : the new AP.

No one has managed to launch the game whether it be with gateway, sky3ds or others. The only thing is work is the .cia. Need to wait after a update from gateway i guess.

Do not waste your time more for the moment.

I have both games from that iso site and both are working with Gateway 11.2U, A9LH Sys9.2. I only receive file is corrupted when renaming to .3dz.
Also i am not sure how i can help you @Skeet1983

I have the same config as you and it does not work. I took my games also on the site iso.

Sorry but I do not believe you, not because you but because it has some trolls that say it works on sky3ds and on gateway and in fact it's not true, and is said many tips to do .. and nothing work, difficult to believe after that. Is the same thing on the iso site.

so far, known solutions for gateway:
.3ds patch card1 to card2
retail cart, classic 7.x+ mode

@Max128 That is ok, I have nothing to gain from lying to anyone and i dont have sky3ds.
but both games are working as both start almost with the same video call from some prof.

[WiiHoney]
