So, I have a cartridge of Fire Emblem Fates Special Edition, and I dumped it so I could install it on my 3DS since I have a giant SD card and I like keeping my physical collection at home, but when I transferred, it didn't show up as a game, so I did some reading and it turns out it doesn't show up because I don't have the tik file, so how would I get it from the cia or remove it from my SD card so I can re-install it?
as far as I know you don't need a ticket for playing cias ripped straight from cartridges,
read the info on the next link: https://3ds.hacks.guide/godmode9-usage.html
It was a converted .3ds file, so that might be it. I copied the trim, would that change anything?
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
(by that I mean i did it with Simple 3DS converter since I had no clue a .3ds converter was built into GodMode9 or I had a version that didn't have it)
I ripped both my ocarina of time cartridge and KH 3D using godmode9 to cias and they worked without issues, also, you should backup your cartridge's save file from the settings menu so when you install the cia it will trasfer the save automatically.
Wait, you transferred your system to another 3ds?, I thought you only wanted to copy your cartridge game to your SD, if that is the case you need to hack the new 3ds if it is unhacked and install again all the non legally bought content cause the system transfer only transfers the content with valid tickets.
Yeah. I'm 99% sure it doesn't show up since the ticket for FEF:SE doesn't exist in the eShop, or the actual game doesn't exist in the eShop, and it's a cartridge only release.
I assure you that is not the case, a lot of games don't exist in the eshop but that doesn't mean we can't install them as cias and play them, just rip your cartridge to a cia with godmode9 and install it.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
