I'm trying to install doodlebomb so I can launch homebrew launcher on 11.4. My friend has 11.3 so he sent me the letter, but to install doodlebomb i need an otherapp.bin with my system version, region etc. I have an old 3ds 11.4.0-37E but there is no otherapp for old 11.4. What do?

There is no payloads for o3ds for 11.4 yet

Yoo, it worked. I also needed to update luma and then homebrew launcher worked perfectly
Awesome!
I know that I was assuming he was on ofw since he's wanting to use doodlebomb to launch homebrew launcher
OFW/CFW is irrelevant when it comes to the homebrew payloads. Only the system version and firmware matters. Except in weird cases where there is no payload available..... Like now. Lol

Hey I am currently trying to solve the same problem. I have Old 3Ds with 11.4. Hoping to use Doodle bomb to run Homebrew, just wondering do I need to rename the newly renamed file "OLD-11-4-0-37-E.bin" to otherapp.bin again? and should this file be in the doodlebomb folder on the root of my SD?

I've just updated my Luma3DS-A9LH setup to 11.4, and I'm also running into issues with the HBL loader.

First, I updated to Luma3ds 7.0.2, then updated to 11.4, but when I try to load HBL, I get the following:

00000000
01fa1000
c921081a

something failed :(
please report error code above

Anyone have the solution to this?

Except that's always the case with every update recently. So it's not a weird case at all.
It's still an exception considering it has noting to do with the updates per se, but everything to do with Smealum's priority for the N3DS over the O3DS. The payloads ALWAYS come, he just doesn't push them in tandem anymore. So technically it's a moot argument anyway, as new payloads have always been released sooner or later.

Just like Gatewait. Soon™

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @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 @ 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 @ 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!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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 @ 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 @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @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 @ 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 @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @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)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot
