Homebrew [Discussion] Next Smea release looks like it's gonna be a big one!

[olshrimpeyes]

No possible kernel exploit? >.<

Not from Smea no.

 

[GoodCookie88]

Not from Smea no.

Of course but could there possibly be a flaw? like in ninjhax 1

 

[Leo2nardo]

Nice work smea!!!

There was ALREADY a kernel sploit on 9.2, ninjhax 1 was just used as an entrypoint.

I mean yeah there could be. That's not really the point of this and if did it would probably be compatible with older versions anyway.

 

[zoogie]

I'm honestly more interested in what the dsp service can do for Citra than ninjhax.

I'm probably not alone here.

 

[Leo2nardo]

Does anyone know when this new update will be released P.S. just asking nicely

I know....im saying if the same thing could happen with our recent firmware and ninjhax 2

 

[Theswweet]

So; should I assume that the new RegionFive features include Smea taking a few pages from NTR's book?

 

[olshrimpeyes]

Maybe we'll be able to play 268Mhz games in 804Mhz mode?

Smea said this was definitely possible, but not to expect dramatic improvement.

In theory? Yes. It would just take someone dedicated and some luck.

EDIT: shoot. wrong tweet. :U

So asking questions will keep him posting...! That's genius!! GUYS STOP ASKING HIM QUESTIONS!

I was so worried I would have an issue when Monster Hunter X comes out, but this doesn't seem like it would be a problem anymore. This is great!!

 

[hippy dave]

DSP is great news

 

[Selim873]

DSP is great news

So exactly what would that help? I know that means better audio, but for developers, would that mean less resources used or less RAM usage since it's streaming audio?

I'm trying not to expect much, but I really wanna see if Pokemon battles will actually run smoothly like this.
Then again, region5 is just for carts right? My Pokemon games are all downloadable versions anyway.

Hm, there was that homebrew a little while ago that could launch system settings from the HBL. Maybe a cia launcher to do this can be made...
But maybe cias are different and can't be tricked like that anyway :/

RegionFive was confirmed to load eshop games by Smea himself. ;P

Oh really, wow I missed that. Awesome!

 

[uberpubert69]

Now that I know DSP can be used now I'm super omega excited. As previously mentioned this could also be very big for Citra as it currently has zero sound support despite having great video emulation considering its age and lack of hardware knowledge of the 3DS. It can only get even better.
