So I tried to play Triforce DL play with some friends, was using my Emunand which is on 10.2. Both of them are in 9.9 so they would have to update to play, both of them use themehax and browserhax. Is there a way to downgrade the emunand to 9.9 so it doesn't attempt to update the others?

Yes, use sysupdater and upgrade cia packs which you can find either on 3DNUS or "that" ISO site.

I doubt sysupdater will work because the firm used in arm9 memory would be higher than that of the one you're trying to install. Theres no override on retail systems for that.

As long as you're upgrading, you'll be fine.. Downgrading doesnt work if the firmware running is higher than the one youre installing.
Are you speaking from personal experience, or merely hypothesising?

I'm sure @RonH downgrades emuNAND as part of his old3DS to new3DS system transfer solution.:unsure:

Well I know for a fact that AM service doesnt allow installing of older firmwares, and checks arm9mem. But im not sure if sysupdater uses a kind of firmlaunch to bypass that.

Sysupdater downgrades doesn't include firm 0/1 as far as my tests have shown. I inject them manually if I need to downgrade emunand and flash to sys nand.

With emunand and firm spoof downgrade works but I wouldn't try on sys nand directly

I think shiny said that anti-downgrade protection can simply be bypassed by first deleting the old title, and then installing the older version.

It compares your CIA with what stuff in config memory.. which is set during firm launch. Idk, if it was easy, we'd all have 1.0.0 systems lol.

    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.

  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
