Thx for the info. I dunno what Nintendo plans to do about piracy in the future. I guess I'm SORT OF OK with this if it means they are still making GOOD games for the system. I've kinda run out of content :L

Thank you Waluigi, you're my favourite character of all them. :)
What about poor Luigi?....

If, in the future, they still allow personal copies of legally owned cartridges, which are essentially and literally .cias, they will not be able to tell the diference. AFAIK.

Same here except for downloads getting corrupted (which is fortunately caught with a bad checksum error so no cia is built) if you try to download more than three games at once. Though it likely won't stay working for very long so get everything you think you might want now.

I also got this error, but redownloading corrupted content seemed to fix the issue, as mentioned above Idk how long villain and freeshop like clients will still be able to download content.

I find that not downloading more than three games/titles at once makes it happen much less often. I find that if I don't limit simultaneous downloads then it will rapidly get to the point where the only fix is to close it and delete everything in the raw folder otherwise everything will fail from then on.

Hi guys. Someone mentioned to avoid sleep downloads with freeshop, what does that mean exactly? Should we avoid freeshop altogether?

well there is the option to download your games while your system is in sleep mode and that sends nintendo the data to get you banned so better not use freeshop get your cias online and download them with fbi or get villian3ds

So if I understand correctly the risk is to connect with freeshop and download games.

Can you confirm please if I am ok. I have nothing to install just hax for homebrew launcher

Can hax like steelhax or RPGhax be detected?

-But the homebrew launcher is on?
and these applications

-JKSM or other to edit by injecting or extracting backups. The Games will be you ok online or restrictions I would like to know with the free to play as pokemon shuffle or kirby team .... because having an advanced backup with few games temp .... and example for pokemon if I changed my backup legit therefore pokemon possible.

-thenaya to make Ntag215

-emulators

-homebrew to have 300 coin

-PCHex ++ to modify the pokemon backup

I dont think anyone is 100% sure of nothing yet with this update. Its still way too early for definitive answers.

I do not want to be mean, but am I the only one to think that SciresM did not say anything about prevention? because we can not know who is safe or not. I know he does this for free, but if he understands how it works in general 30 seconds to avoid several bans does not hurt.

Im pretty sure the whole thing about not being able to forge tickets cause they are signed by Ninty only keydata and stateing two posts later that its not possible to do anything about it is a conclusion to how prevention would go over.

I say to explain those who are affected, not a solution.

Why we can not copy the existing game key and used it, if Nintendo detects super Mario instead of homebrew launcher we would know ok. but this solution is too simple to work. So what is the protection?

Dissapointing because CIA downloads means I need twice as much space for the game I wanna download, and when you have games that are like 3 gigs it really adds up. Only consolation is I bought ORAS, DKC Returns, Smash and Pokemon Moon so the biggest stuff I can just get from the actual Eshop.

Still, it's a shame to see what is more or less the end of the Freeshop unless someone finds a fix. If browsing it is safe though it's still a pretty handy way to just look and see all the games on the system.

    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
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    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"

    "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
  • 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
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    @The Real Jdbye, it's bed bath and beyond you nitwit
