As usual, i'm a bit lost here. Just to be clear: the info from this thread means you can use cheats without making use of the BootNTR application.
In the original post. If I put the
boot.firm into the root of the SD it does not even load to begin with. The
boot.firm from the OP download = version
v9.0-e5948ab7 and when I do this I get the message:
Failed to apply 1 FIRM patch and I have to reboot. I can choose to change the firm to v9.1, it boots, but nothing happens. So I would assume it only works on
v9.0-e5948ab7 that has been altered in the download or I might have missed something.
Addiitional info. BootNTR (v2.13.3):
https://github.com/Nanquitas/BootNTR/releases/tag/v2.13.3 (NTR 3.6.1) works good on Pokemon X/YOR/AS but not on Moon/Sun/UltraSun/UltraMoon.
EDIT: Tested a few firmware boot files. If I go lower than v9.1 it gives me the
Failed to apply 1 FIRM patch error.
EDIT2: This thread (Using Luma3DS with Plugin Loader (recommended) >
https://github.com/SNBeast/CTRPF-AR-CHEAT-CODES helped my boot my device at least. I get a green screen on X/Y/OR/AS/SUN/MOON/US/MN.
There are 2 downsides using this method:
1) You will get a
green screen in JSKV, FBI and every other program which causes a ARM11 crash (no idea why this is happening - very annoying)
2) You can't use any other
.plg files rather than renaming
ActionReplay.plg to
plugin.plg and using a
cheats.txt file. See images below for example:
This renders for example
@AnalogMan plugin:
