im using this method too and there are 2 version of safehax, .3dsx and .smdh, do you know wich one do i use?
Smdh is the icon file.
.3dsx

and btw, .smdh is part of older .3dsx files. You need both (well, you don't NEED to use both, but it was made that way). Newer .3dsx files just have the .smdh part included. You won't be hacking 11.5 this way though. You'll just be able to use userland homebrew.

EDIT: But if you know anybody with a hacked console, you don't need a powersaves. Use the hacked console and a save file manager to setup your OOT cart. And as many people here would like to argue with me, it's even easier via the Gateway menu if you know someone who uses a GW.

Did anyone figure this out? I have the latest payload from the homebrew site but powersaves doesn't recognize it when I rename it...

Some people have managed to do this it seems from my searching around but no one appears willing to share the updated save, including yellow8...

You need a premade .sav file for PowerSaves, there isn't an official one for the latest FW so you may need someone to help you out by installing oot3dhax on their cart with homebrew and dump the .sav for you to use.

I just wanted to chime in and make sure it's clear that, while oot3dhax and other alternative exploits can conceivably be used on an 11.5 N3DS to run homebrew, it cannot be used to install CFW.

Yeah if only someone was willing to do that... I'm sure it would help a lot of people.

    @Xdqwerty, People who create revival services for the Wii end up in disaster, same goes for Pretendo lol.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon

    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
