Homebrew Does hyrule warriors legends work on sky3ds+

[Aaronslakie]

Hello
Hyrule warriors legends was released for 3ds on the US like a week ago and i tried to pit the rom on my sky3ds+ card but it was too big. So i trimmed it but the flash card itself wont read the rom its just blank. Ive asked sky3ds but they havent answered me.
Any help?

It was too big for your sd card to fit it in or did it give an error? If it doesn't fit your sd card, you will need to get a bigger one. The trimming is probably messing the game up

Depending on when you bought your sky3ds+, you might have to update the firmware before you can get the game to show up.

The current version of the firmware is V112 [02/22/2016].

You can download and get the instructions to update here: http://www.sky3ds.com/download.html

Yes i have enough memory. Im using a 8gb micro sd card and the rom is 4gb. im on firmware 112. And i have the newest gamelist

The gamelist.bin file is no longer needed if your on v110 or higher. you can try deleting it or try moving it off the microSD.

The only other thing I can think of that would cause you problems, is that your using a kingston brand microSD. They are known to cause problems with a Sky3DS+.

Ill try that but i can load other roms its just that hyrule warriors specifically wont work. Do i need to trim the rom or can i use a different format

 

[how_do_i_do_that]

Because you are using FAT32, your roms HAVE TO be under the 4GB file size limit.

Here is a video showing how to trim a rom, using MH4U as the example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgQm75IGoiQ
(NOT MY VIDEO)

You will need a program called 3DSExplorer to trimmed the rom, you can get it here: https://code.google.com/archive/p/3dsexplorer/downloads

I trimmed the rom cci to 2bg but when i try to load it on the flash card it wont load. im on fat32, im on the newest firmware, i dont have the gamelist.bin. i followed the video but the rom wont work. its an English rom on an english 3ds. all my roms work but hyrule warriors legends. And my micro sd card is a sandisk ultra 32gb micro sdhc

 

[how_do_i_do_that]

Someone mention that some sandisk microSD stick an extra partition that doesn't show up and you would have to delete all the partitions then make 1 partition and format it FAT32. I don't know if that will fix your issue or not. I don't have any sandisk microSD to check for you to know or not.

If you got another microSD to test the game with will tell you if the sandisk microSD is your issue or not.

Worst case situation is the latest 3DS firmware can block the use of that rom.

 

[Aaronslakie]

Nevermind i figured it out. The cluster size on the micro sd card needs to be 64kb

 

[how_do_i_do_that]

at least you got it working.
