    Homebrew OPEN_AGB_FIRM discussion thread

    Yep, thanks. I actually thought of the gm9 script after someone else mentioned the hex editor, but I find it is quicker to run the script than to open the file and change it with the editor. I might take a closer look at the scripting capabilities of gm9, and see if instead of relying on...

    Homebrew OPEN_AGB_FIRM discussion thread

    Don't know if this is useful to someone else, but in order to be able to switch the scalers in open_agb_firm, I resorted to create 3 config.ini files each with a different scaler option, and wrote a very simple GodMode9 script that overwrites the /3ds/open_agb_firm/config.ini with one of other...

    Homebrew OPEN_AGB_FIRM discussion thread

    @stranno Thanks a lot for keeping up with the new builds. I see that in the last one, the scaling can be changed with a config setting. However, I was finding quite useful to have 3 different versions of the payload with the different scaling methods, so I could just start whatever I wanted...

    Yeah, I'd be super happy with just a screenshot and a name. haha and I wouldn't call that a tool. It is literally a silly script running on 3DS.py. 3DS.py does not support curses or anything graphical, so it is just outputting console text to the top screen. Not pretty by any metrics. Here's a...

    Is there a way to configure retroarch so it displays game covers, metadata, etc...? The only way I've seen RA being used is with that text mode file browser that only displays the file name. Yeah, probably overkill as it does not really add functionality that cannot be already done. But it...

    With so many different emulators that can be installed in the 3DS, Is there already a sort of game browser/launcher for roms, ala EmulationStation or something like that? Something that could scan the directories where roms live for a every platform and rendered a nice menu to navigate. Bonus...

    Gaming GBA Micro Battery

    Hi there! Does anyone know where to source a good battery for a GBA micro, preferably in the UK? any good brand out there? A forum member pointed me to Cameron Sino batteries, which are not particularly easy to come by. Bought one in AliExpress, and it turned out to be the last one the seller...

    Hardware new 3ds original in the uK

    Hi there! Anyone knows of any place to (re)buy a new 3ds (non XL) in the UK? Spent some time googling around but every place seems to not stock them anymore. I know it has been discontinued, but I somehow I was expecting some places to have lasting stock for a while. After selling my 3ds some...

    Hacking EZ-Flash IV Mother 3 hangs after "Game boy player" logo - NOR damaged?

    Yep, I got that. But this thread suggests that here was a batch with bad NOR memories, so I assumed that getting a reform will lower the chances of getting a bad cart.

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hi, I've seen in a few places the warning to NOT get into the management data menu from SysNAND, as it would cause to loose all the cias installed in emunand. Can you get into the management data menu in Emunand though? Otherwise, how do you delete old savegames after you delete a game? Thanks!
