Hacking Official [Source Release] ReiNand CFW

[CrimsonMaple]

Anyways, back on topic... @CrimsonMaple have you tried loading AGB/TWL FIRM instead of a regular NFIRM? If all you want is to get something "up and running quickly", you should give it a shot. As in, have a mode that only boots regular reboot titles (Smash, MH4U, etc), one that boots AGB titles and one that boots TWL titles. Saying that it'd be "dirty" is a massive understatement, but you can build up from that idea.

Little bit more complex than that. ^^. I would rather patch them all on boot. My issue right now is figuring out how I get an additional firm to boot outside of Nfirm. If @TuxSH could give me a run down that would be great! If not well I'll just keep at it on my own.

good luck getting that with reinand as it does not read the firm from ctrnand but from sd lol
so you'd need a firmware_agb and a firmware_twl on the sd
i think that makes it quite clear enough

see, that's what happens when you're copy pasting: you don't understand what you're doing.

I know that lol. I am patching firms from the SD. I just need to know where to throw them in the FCRAM and how to get them to be loaded by ReiNand.

@CrimsonMaple literally all you need to do is replace the "sdmc:/rei/rebootFirmware.bin" file (not the path, the file itself) with an agb/twl firmware and test that out... not sure if it'd work tbh but its worth a shot

Oh shit. That brings up a good point. I need dedicated reboot assemblies. Thanks for reminding me ^^

That's fine lol. I'll figure it out. Thanks anyways!

sure np. I still dont get the problem with installing pre patched FIRMs (maybe except the fact that they're unwieldy for dev purposes, but for end user they're just fine)

lol I think @Reisyukaku will be more helpful.

definitely, i don't want to care about helping people that don't know what they're doing

That's fine lol. Its a learning experience. Thanks for offering to help anyways. I appreciate it.

Yeah. Cleaned this up a fair bit. Keep the drama in the blogs, and be nice to each other.

Btw, does anyone still use ninjhax, mset, menuhax etc? like getting rid of it would be lighten the load, but idk. I like to give options and it looks like luma forces a9lh

 

[TuxSH]

it looks like luma forces a9lh

it does not, look at the release archives (well, only 6.6 is available atm): there's a .3dsx and a .dat. They do load arm9loaderhax.bin (due to CakeHax restrictions, for example) but that does not require a9lh.

Didn't see CakeHax in the repo so was a safe assumption.

There is still some people that uses menuhax, I dunno about mset

@Reisyukaku
Actually, I think that is safe to drop mset support since nowadays is quite simple to update to 9.0~9.2 to use menuhax and to install a9lh/k9lh. I think ninjhax can be usefull though.
