It's possible yes. You just need another 3DS that has with legitimate copies of steel diver sub wars and a dsi game

You install it on the CFW 3DS and use it to access homebrew launcher. That way when you system transfer, the 11.2 3DS will have a way to get into homebrew launcher

Wait, If you are just editing the save of the dsi title, why can't you just open homebrew on a 3ds and install the save with jksm?

for it I use homebrew loader .cia

You can't tranfer the Homebrew Loader CIA and it doesn't work unless you are already in a CFW. You need a legit entrypoint on a system to get it to that point.

Wait, If you are just editing the save of the dsi title, why can't you just open homebrew on a 3ds and install the save with jksm?

Installing a DSiWare save requires ARM11 kernel access. There is currently no publicly released way to get that on 11.0+. JKSM from the Homebrew Launcher cannot modify a DSiWare save.

It's involved in the hack. If you have a cfw 3ds then you can follow this link:
https://3ds.guide/dsiware-downgrade

Other than that you would need to hardmod.

Follow this guide, OP.

I know this is out of topic, but do we need to rebuy the dsi game each time we do this if i want to use the source 3DS to downgrade multiple targets?
Or i can just transfer back from the target 3ds after successfully downgraded?

Depends, if you buy it with a nnid you can just unlink with the target ds and then link it back to the source, but if you bought it without a nnid, you will need to rebuy it.

The new hack for 11.0 and 11.1 won't work on 11.2. That hack is veryslowpidhax and can take weeks to months to hack? (from 3DBrew.org "With launching+terminating a sysmodule repeatedly with this via ns:s, it would take weeks to finish(if not at least about a month?).").

steelhax is Just an entrypoint ? Or it obligatory to use it ?
It's just the easiest entrypoint when doing a system transfer for DSiWare anyway. If you download and install it and then install the exploit to it before transferring, it gives you an entrypoint for free.

Otherwise, you need another entrypoint, such as an OoT3D cart, as browserhax has been patched.

thank ^^
If I read and understand good the guide, I can use the system transfer between an old 3ds(cfw 11.2) to an 2ds(11.0 or 11.1) ?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Yes, however I believe that ctr-http is down right now which would make you need to ugrade your 3ds to 11.2

    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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @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 ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @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!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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 @ 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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
