So I lost my dump of otp of my 3ds pre cfw. So any possible way to dump it, without removing cfw? Because You know. If I managed to somehow brick, and I need that to unbrick, might be wise to have a copy. just for safe keeping, you know?

Having the otp won't help you unbrick. Just make sure you have a nand backup if you ever need to do a hardmod.

I don't the know the most effective way to get your otp, but you could do a ctr transfer to 2.1 if you really wanted it.

You don't need it for recovering from bricks. A NAND backup+Hourglass9 is just enough.
ok.

actually you can't double ctr transfer. Out of my knowledge luma will try to boot and it should have a ctrmount error.

You can always downgrade to 2.1 to retrieve it
not quite. I already tried it. resulted in ctr mount error. And if I did, how would I dump it. Without reinstalling arm9hax. (which personally reinstalling something you don't need to reinstall usually causes bricks)

The reason there is a CTRNAND error is because Luma3DS can't boot 2.1 AFAIK. The only other option is to uninstall Arm9LoaderHax (restore your original NAND backup), downgrade to 2.1, retrieve the OTP, and then restore a backup with A9LH. Also, you really don't need the OTP once you have A9LH installed tbh. Also, reinstalling A9LH probably wont brick you.

You don't even need your OTP for that either. The OTP is basically useless after you install A9LH.

Do a 9.2 CTRTransfer and then uninstall A9LH
HOW. ok allow me to explain. last time I checked (and Im probably wrong) but there isn't a uninstaller for arm9hax. and if there is (assuming its bulit in to arm9hax) how would you access it?

Idk how I did it exactly but I once lost my otp too.
So what I did was downgrading to 9.2 I think and making a new EmuNAND
Then I made a backup of that fresh EmuNAND and restored it as SysNAND

That way I lost A9LH and could redo the whole process

Idk if that's what I EXACTLY did but I think that should be it.

    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
