Hi@all.

Tomorrow my new 3ds xl arrives and also the OoT3D to get into Homebrew Launcher for better support then soundhax.

I searched for a guide how to install OoT3Dhax to the card and i got many different aswers so i hope you can help me.

I own a secound n3DS XL with a9lh and Luma3DS on Sysnand 11.2
In the newest starter pack of homebrew launcher there is a homebrew to install OoT3Dhax.

The question is: Can i use that to install the hax data also if i'm on 11.2?
If yes do i need to download other files or is it enough to just run the installer in Homebrew Launcher?

In some Guides i read that it's only possible to install the hax with a Powersave dongle.

So now what's true? Can i install it with my already modded 3ds xl to the cartridge or is the only way a Powersave Dongle?

Thanks in advice to all who can help me with that :)

you can install the hack using your second 3ds no problem. I did it just fine last week and now I am waiting for my n3ds XL to arrive.

Ok great:) And the installer is all need to set the card up?

Looking forward to get the Game and my n3DS XL Solgaleo and Lunala Edition tomorrow :)

With soundhax, you can actually downgrade and install a9lh now, and i believe you can also downgrade with oothax. I think https://3ds.guide/ should help.
I know that and also know the guide, have used it many times. But for users Soundhax only works after many tries and with oot3dhax will work better/faster.

It turns out that the issue was that safehax requires a cartridge in the cartridge slot. When they were using soundhax, they didn't have a cartridge in the slot. Then they inserted OoT3D to use OoT3Dhax and magically it worked.

Soundhax will work fine, just have a cartridge inserted.

Ah ok good to know. But i thinks is not bad to have another entry Point on hand :)

Just 1 little question: To run OoT3dhax i only need the starter pack of HBL and the otherapp.bin for 11.2 right?

You need boot.3dsx on the root of the SD card and the correct payload of OoT3Dhax installed for that console. OoT3Dhax doesn't read its payload from the SD card.

ok thanks for your help than i think all will word well :) The installer does ask for the version on 3ds so i think it will download the correct payload itself, right?

Ok install of the exploit worked great with my other device so powersafe is definitely not needed!

I had to select the saveslot and the the system Version. After that he loaded the right payload and installed the hack.

The Homebrew Launcher then starts without any problems and very fast, in my feeling faster than menu or browserhax.

So i think because you can choose the Save Slot you dont have to errase your own safegame if you already have one but didn't test that.

Then now i be ready to bring a9lh to the solgaleo and lunala limited Edition :)

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
