it wont let me. i go through and update it through updater - and it says successful, however launching updater again still shows 7.1 installed
Do I want to enable boot.firm on CTR-NAND?

Do it manually?
Grab the latest release here: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases/latest
(and just follow this guide: https://3ds.guide/updating-b9s)
Hello,
Did you install boot.firm in CTR sysNAND too? Maybe you boot on it and luma updated the one in the SD.

That's what I'm saying in my first post - i Can't boot in to the Luma chainloader screen to follow that guide, when holding start on boot it does nothing but go to home menu - now 3DS wont boot at all because i tried to enable boot.firm on CTR-NAND
I assumed that you already tried to update B9S, but didn't update Luma while doing so, sorry.
B9S 1.0 can't launch Luma 8.0, which means you have to downgrade, grab the 7.1 release here: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases/tag/v7.1
Are you sure you even have any payloads in "/luma/payloads/"?
Godmode9 and SafeB9SInstaller are currently in there - just move the boot.firm file over to SD card?
Just replace the current boot.firm with the 7.1 one.
Are the payloads .bin's or .firm's?
im having the same issue, im following the guide until section 2, i just boot into home screen, have u managed to figure out how to boot into luma chainloader?
Yes! I'm relieved to know that I wasn't the only one having these problems!
What I did was move the safe installer to CTRNAND. It will run that way, and now my system even tells me that I'm at Luma 8.0. Problem is, when I go into the Luma Updater, it displays my version of Luma in red. Red is never good, is it?

i deleted the boot.firm on my sd root and replaced with the Luma7.1 that can be downloaded here: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases/tag/v7.1
after i did that it let me boot into the chainloader -

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

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?

@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

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

@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!

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:
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
