how do u make boxarts for ds convert from any extension to .bmp extension 128 × 115, 16-bit, without color space information, ARGB?GBA games are more easily run as injects (cia files so you can play them directly from your home menu).
you can check https://3ds.hacks.guide/ for the best method on your version. on the latest firmware you can go for either seedminer (requires any dsiware) or ntrboot (requires a ds flashcart)Hi there, hope everyone is having a great day.
I just bought a 2DS and really want to install CFW on it. I know there's a lot of threads probably posted but just wanted to ask just in case and I missed it. As these things can be overlooked, what is the best method to get CFW running at the moment, easier the better for an idiot like me.
Thanks and apologies in advance.
You need the Hacks to install .cia filesThank you, can I ask also since I probably will hack it. Is there a R4 card or something similar which ahem lets me play .cia files without doing the hacking?.
Seedminer by far is the least expensive option to install Luma on your 3DS. It costs nothing if your 3DS is a USA or JPN model, and if it is a EUR model, it costs $2. It also is rather quick, taking about an hour total. Get started here: https://3ds.hacks.guide/seedminer.htmlThank you, can I ask also since I probably will hack it.

Oh! My mistake. I thought the guide said that only USA and JPN regions were free. Ignore me thenSeedminer is free for all regions.
can you please show us where exactly it is free then? That page you show has it stated that it works for all regions but is only free on us and jp consoles.Seedminer is free for all regions.

What are you using it for? If you're using it for ntrboot just get the cheapest one that will work for you. You don't have to use a flashcart to install CFW either - there's ways to do it for free now, so think twice before buying one. If you're using it for DS games, you only need to make sure it can run Wood firmware. Apart from that get the cheapest.What is the best flash card to get for a New 3DS XL? And is the 3DS Hacks Guide still the one to follow? They have a list of flash carts, which one is the best one?

Hey guys, OK got my charger now and its got juice to go.
Now my firmware is 11.9.0 42E
I been watching this video, and it seems really easy to follow while watching:
Now the problem I don't get is and hoping someone can help, this installs the bootstrap 9 correct, but what do after wards to get luma cfw and fbi to install .cia.
Is there another video people can recomment, as watching is easier than reading because of dyslexia
One(!) of the problems with video guides is: We simply do not know every video out there, but we know 3ds.hacks.guide. If you link to a random video and ask: "Is this okay?" this would mean to watch the whole video (and follow every given link below the video) just to be able to give a sensible answer.Thank you, is it because its out of date?
DON'T follow video guides. Follow https://3ds.guide only. If you get stuck or confused then tell us what page, section and step you're up to, as well as why you are stuck / screenshots or photos, and someone will help right away.

In this particular case: Yes, the video is outdated because one of the links in the description leads to another site outside YouTube with lots of fancy scripts resulting ultimately in the download of a super convenient "all-in-one package" (containing the old Frogtool version 1.1 and maybe other outdated software) from a Google Drive.
Don't worry about asking questions you might think are stupid, we've seen everything! Feel free to ask in advance of doing a step if you want to clarify what it really means in some different words. Depending on what step it is we might even be able to give you some screenshots of what you should be seeing.OK thank you, sorry for asking. Like I mentioned reading is morre difficult and slower than watching a video. I apologise in advance for any questions later on.
