Hmm, so I need to extract the save file of an installed game (Animal crossing)

How can I extract it so I can put it back later when I reinstall AC on emuNAND?

The save manager app is apparently only for retail carts.
savemanager should be able to use for digital games as well. Remember you have to press right/left to select the digitial game though.

But you should be using either the homebrew app SVDT or CIA savedatafiler. Most digital games now a days have something called anti save game restore (ASR) which would corrupt the save if attempted, and those 2 programs have something for that.
I personally like SVDT, but that because I haven't learn how to use SDF.

so eh, i just want to be sure.

i have to upgrade the firmware to 10.4 INSIDE reinand 10.3 correct?

And when i do so, will i lose my installed CIA's or not?
No, you shouldn't lose your installed CIA.

and Yes, inside Reinands. Rather, it should be the first thing you do in system setting, when you go to system setting that the first thing you do, to avoid accidently booting up the system setting of sysnand.

Hello.
I've downgrade mi New 3DS XL and now I have an unlinked emunand with my NID (I formatted the sysnand), and I am not able to play my Ambassador GBA Games.
I've read that they have to be installed in the sysnand as well but I have no clue of how to do it (I tried to inject fbi in health safety on sysnand but didn't work).

¿What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.
ReiNAND or RxTools?

is there any way to exit devmenu/bigbluemenu without rebooting?

Did you install the CIA via Big Blue Manager/DevMenu/FBI?

When trying to access homebrew menu it just crashes. using ctrbootmanager. And even if I install HBL.cia it just leads me to ctrbootmanager again.

Reinand (It's the first cfw I've installed, if there is another that works better I would use it)

That something with the boot Setting. I'm not sure how I fixed mine, but looked at this tutorial again: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutoria...g-10-4-emunand-coldboot-cia-installer.405589/
Specificly the section starting here:
  • Rename that boot.3dsx on your microSD to bhbl.3dsx.
  • Rename that boot.3dsx on your microSD to bhbl.3dsx.
Regarding the HBL cia, you are going to need to download the payload, then edit the payload file, with the same rename as boot to bhbl.

10.3

I've installed the agb_firm in the sysnand (through FBI from the emunand, I don't know if that's the correct way) but my ambassador gba games still don't work :(

I've got the nands unlinked btw.
EDIT: Looks like my DSiware games don't work too...

I'm trying to install a CIA (Legend of Legacy USA (RF).cia) but it continuously fails telling me that signatures are invalid. I tried rxTools (Sep 28 nightly) + FBI app (latest), PastaCFW (sysNAND) + FBI.3dsx (latest), rxTools + BigBlueMenu and rxTools + FBI after FreeMultiPatcher.
Install failed!
Legend of Legacy USA (RF).cia

Module: MODULE_NN_AM (0x20)
Level: LEVEL_PERMANENT (0x1b)

Press Start to continue.

Either a problem with the CIA or the CFW itself since CFW is supposted to patch signature checks.
were you able to install any other CIA?

Numerous, but I'm having issues since a while. At the beginning (end of October) everything was working fine and I could install every CIA I was trying to install.

Edit: Reply #15000 ^-^

Now trying with latest version of Reinand (the one that requires the 10.2 firm)

Edit 2: Nope, "This .cia is invalid." (I was using BBM.)

Next thing to try: Re-downloading the CIA

Alright i have a issue with animalcrossing happy home designers.

Everytime i start the game (cia) it gives me a blackscreen with the text to reboot the 3ds/contact support.

Ive tried 3 different cias (correct region everything) and also applied updates if necceary.

Any ideas?

I have a question, I first have new3ds with linked nands, I extracted the msd and format the sysnand to separate it, now I have two folders with numbers in de Nintendo 3ds folder, but if I change a theme in sysnand they change in emunand too and viceversa! Is this normal? Seems like is the only thing linked, how can I separate the themes?? I want to use homemenuhax to autoboot gateway.

I use a gateway card, thanks!

did you remember to use emuNAND tool version 1.0.1 to inject the nand.bin before the system formant into emunand?

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
