Do we know which OFW version we should be on yet to potentially benefit from this kernel dump's future exploitation? I'm still on 2.0.0 but, if the benefits of this dump can benefit those on 3.0.0, I might as well upgrade.
So..... What firmware do I need to be on?
we don't know because this isn't even an exploit that has been made for users, so chill

they tend to follow the self rule of don't release till it's patched to give them less of a chance to patch it

There isn't many games you can play if they put new required firmware versions up on the coming games to get around a released Kexploit though...

This has nothing to do with the SDK

I am not sure it has an immediate connection. But snooping around could possibly lead them onto something that else would take more time to find. Are you sure it isn't (did they say how to got to it) or are you assuming? Just asking.

Nope. They're not using the SDK, can confirm. Not like it would help much with RE anyways, it's just standard C/C++ libraries with clang compiler. Can't even debug without a dev unit anyways, so for all intents and purposes, it's useless in this scope.

The biggest one I'm looking at is MHXX. That already has a patch for 3ds I think. If someone gets file swapping to work on Switch, it probably won't take long to port the translation over.
this is one of the examples of games that unfortunately haven't been able to be done yet

so my point is, please don't assume one game being possible means they all are, but it will be nice when it comes around

    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    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
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    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.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Don some VR glasses and gloves and talk to the computer and paint entire worlds
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    "OK Cortana I want that mountain a little taller and more snow on top, and I would like some random ancient pine forest around the bottom"
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    "Now we need a spring fed river flowing down the north side and add some wild life appropriate for the biome"
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    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
    +1
  • 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
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released
