I'm currently porting over Video Channels Creator (that homebrew that allows you to play jpgv movies on your 3DS) to Linux, but it uses a program called 3dstool to create a romfs.

Although I could compile 3dstool on my pc (but that limits the architecture it can be ran on), the ability to create a romfs filesystem seems to be included on Linux systems with the command genromfs. Can I use that command instead of 3dstool or is that a different filesystem?

    That game asked you plenty of questions to make sure you was an adult, but it could be an effective anti-piracy check.

    Before that, you used to go to a library to find a big heavy book with every history and other related questions. Would've took hours just to mesmerize them.

    Companies, stop using materializm and plain looking designs. Go back two decades from now and start bringing back retro.

    @K3Nv3, here in Melbourne, what was empty land has now turned into shopping centres. Do you know if the land is gonna get used?
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Who knows it's been empty for years the cities more focused on pouring millions into new government area such as courts and police stations
