Nah, the r4i gold pro may have less features, but cost 3 or 4 times less than DSTwo.

Yep, just saw them going for £9.90 while the SC2+ goes for £37.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

If its just to get the new firmware on, are the other features needed?

basically just want to run 3ds games, and a few older emulators

You'll be using the Card just to hack the 3DS, after that, you won't use it anymore, unless you need to hack another console, ;)

Hi all,

Thank you very much everyone for the help and guidance I have been reading up on setting up my first CFW! Finally made an account on here to start contributing myself.

I have installed A9LH using Plailect's recent 3 step guide and have Luma3DS 6.1 installed as well. I am currently using a Japanese New 3DS and have Hourglass9 mapped to my Start button. I installed the CFW using a brand new system and do not have a NNID/Eshop account linked to it.

My problem, which I hope someone could please help me out with, is that when I try to run a SNES VC cia that I installed through FBI, it will load with a black top screen and the bottom screen has the VC screen showing. This will last for a couple of seconds and then I am booted back to the home screen with an error. When I close the error screen, my system restarts normally.

I have the region free option in Luma3DS checked and I received the SNES VC cia from that one site. I assumed that it was only a matter of installing the cia and that would be it. If it helps, the banners do not load, but I am ok with not having them.

If I am missing any steps, can someone help point me in the right direction please?

Thank you!

Hi,

Whenever I run a GBA game, the GBA bios logo shows up, even though I have that option disabled in Luma settings. How can I disable the GBA logo then?

Out of curiosity, I would like to ask what would happen if I run the .3dsx version of Luma3ds on a Vanilla New3dsXL w/ menuhax. Are there any risks?

Using Ninjhax to downgrade a new 3ds 10.7.0.32u to 9.2 , i ran into the possibility that it may have partially downgraded/error and can no longer boot to menuhax.

Before i see if the downgrade is indeed partial, would i have to redo ninjhax > menuhax under the same "10.7" QR code again or would that be stupidity on my part?

My 3DS does not boot anymore when installing the latest luma hourly, but it does when resotoring the 6.1 version.
What's happening here?

  • 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

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
