Any ideas? I want to transfer my stuff to a 64 gig card with fat32 format. When you copy paste the stuff from a sd card to another, there is hidden content inside the card that you cannot access. Since its boot9strap i'm not sure how to transfer it to another card while keeping my hacks and game dat. Please help:P

I always thought unless you have emunand, you just copy and paste stuff over (enabling hidden folders if anything).

Just copy and paste all the content from one SD to another. B9S is installed directly to the system itself and only really uses the SD card to boot the CFW (unless you copy the CFW directly onto the CTRNAND)

transfer = cut & paste

PS: Strange, it seems that opening a nonsense thread is easier than trying out.

I tried it, apparently my home menu doesn't show my badges and has a bunch of corrupted applications. If I cant find a way to get the apps working I may have to start installing everything again. Ill just use JKSM to move my game dat....

That's pretty surprising. Did you make sure to properly format the target SD card?
Yeah, the part when I tried to kill the partition failed, although the card was another format I used terminal to force it to a fat32 format.

What I've done each time for formatting the target card is: (credits to iCEQB)
Try formatting it with SD Formatter V4.0 - Full Erase - Overwrite

Then, restore via USB Image Tool (step 5 and on)

Otherwise, you may want to check your target SD card for errors.

    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow

    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol

    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    AI assisted game creation might become a thing
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At least that's something I think would be pretty cool.

    Many TBs of assets and the programming of something like that is going to be tough but I think it's something we might see in 20 years maybe sooner
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    before that there was one to generate a fully modeled scene from a 2D image
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and using LLMs to generate NPC dialogue and even dynamically generated quests is something i'm sure is already happening
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released
