Hacking [Discussion] Why Aren't There Any *Free* Backup Loaders Apps Yet?

[cvskid]

if you're not patient enough to pirate a game, maybe you don't deserve to play the game?

No one deserves to play these games for free regardless of the wait time but they do anyways.

True. It infuriates me that some people have the audacity to sit there and complain about the hardships of stealing content.

so to (hopefully) wrap up this thread, a loader may be possible, but it is simply to complex and unnecessary to develup when we have cias

I think it's more complex than we think it is.
Since you use the rom is it is, you have to trick the system into thinking there is an actual gamecart in the game slot.
Even using a random gamecart, you have to trick the system into thinking the game is another game you want to load and redirect all the things (if even possible)
cia makes the game equal to it's digital eshop version and that's easy to install, but using the rom dumps (3ds/3dz) you can't make it show up as a digital eshop version and play it from sd, it has to be installed. So the most difficult thing would be to have the loader trick the system an actual gamecart is pressent with the game you want to play (or trick the system that the gamecart that is in, actually is the gamerom you want to play)
I think that's hard to archive without extra hardware to put into the slot-1 gameslot like sky3ds/gateway

Anyway, that's my vision on it

Perhaps you could use an existing cart, and try to launch a rom by tricking the 3ds into thinking that it's loading from the slot-1.
I am very inexperienced, so what I am saying may not be possible in any way.

What a reply.

EDIT: It's blank. That's what I'm getting at here.

You guys make it sound like you don't want this to ever be created. I try to keep an open mind and if it becomes a thing, great and if it doesn't, that's fine too. I remember when video capture was unheard of without a capture card until NTR made video streaming possible (albeit on n3ds only). Although it's a ton of work, .3ds loading will only benefit the community

As I promised I would tell you all (not that any of you care, but it's data, I suppose...), Hyrule Warriors is finished installing! Yes, it took that long.
