Homebrew Does Smash Bros. work with Luma3DS's LayeredFS?

[KunoichiZ]

I'm worried that the code.bin will break LayeredFS for games such as Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS and Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Also, never mind on that romfs folder structure. It has been rendered useless due to the above post.

The code.bin for Smash only goes to Smash, not for any other game. You are too paraoid. Any hacks you do for one game WILL NOT affect any other game. If you're that paranoid, don't load any hacks for any game.

It won't.

It is only applied to the smash, there for leaving the rest of your apps out of question. It also helps do things the CIA can't if you still wanted to go down that route.

e.g.

• Add new files (more costume slots)
• reduces lag when entering areas (such as CSS)
• actually allows you to play onliene

Okay. How would I go about acquiring said code.bin?

hopefully somebody has it for you. I don't

EDIT: I would look but I gtg

You can just use fbi installer to get the title id, just put the game in and go to title list, and find the game, it list all title id, of everything on the system, including NAND NDSI Ware, SDCARD and Game cart.

Extract the game contents. code.bin is located in the exefs.

We already worked this out. I just need the code.bin for SaltySD. I don't see how I would get it because there are no releases whatsoever on the GitHub page.

Uh, I meant for SaltySD.

Extract the game contents. code.bin is in the game contents. code.bin is against the rules to share, that's why we can't just give it out to share.

With Decrypt9? Ok. Do I need to modify it or what?

Use D9 to obtain Smash as a CIA, then use your computer to extract the contents of the CIA. code.bin is located in the exefs. You will need to patch the code.bin to use it with SaltySD. Instructions can be found on the SaltySD GitHub.

There's an option in D9 that dumps the game to files to be used with modding. Can I just use that? IDK how I would manage to extract the CIA contents.

What option is that? Find Asia81's guide in the ROM Hacking section on extracting .3ds, .cxi, and .cia files.

My bad, I was thinking of Hourglass9.
Anyways, the option is:
Hourglass9>Gamecart Dumper>Dump Cart (full)
or Dump and Decrypt Cart (full) for Game Cards
For downloaded titles I can't seem to find the function. There IS a SysNAND title to CIA function and an EmuNAND title to CIA function.
Hourglass9>Miscellaneous>SysNAND title to CIA
or EmuNAND title to CIA

Use D9 instead. Content -> Decryptor Options -> CIA Builder Options -> CIA Builder (SysNAND decr.). Or EmuNAND decr. if you have the title installed to an emuNAND (for whatever reason).

I don't have Decrypt9WIP or an EmuNAND. Hourglass9 has a CIA dumping option. I think it also has a decrypting option for CIAs. Can't I just use that?

You probably could, but I have no experience with dumping things (other than NAND backups with H9, and as such, you won't receive help from me. Try using Dump Cart to CIA in H9.

Ok. I will try later. I just need to know where to put the mod files.

And the code.bin.

And the code.bin.

code.bin goes in SD:/luma/titles/TITLEID/.

mod files for SaltySD go in SD:/saltysd/smash. You need to follow the romfs folder structure otherwise it won't work, just like you did with replacing ACNL's music.

Noted.

 

[Sammi Husky]

You need to do more than copy the folder structure of romfs. Romfs doesn't mean anything with regards to smash modding because the entire game is packed into 1 large archive. So for LayeredFS it can ONLY replace THAT file. SaltySD is a patch to the actual game code that makes it load the game files EXTRACTED from the DT archive. You need to follow the folder structure of the EXTRACTED dt archive. Use my DTLS or ShinyQuagsire's modified script on his github to see the structure, and copy that
