I've been pulling my hair out trying to make something work with this, and it's just not happening, so I figured I'd make an account here and actually ask because this is probably where I'm most likely to get some good input. I'm attempting to get this to run on Citra Emulator, which doesn't natively support CIA installation (which is a huge problem being that this is a CIA file.) My go-to idea was to manually go in and patch in the RomFS from this into the RomFS in Fates. While that succeeded, the game still boots up and everything, there's no actual observable change in the game, and I still can't access the content in Dragon's Gate. I'm 100% positive that the method I'm trying to use to go about this is flawed, but I frankly have no idea HOW it's wrong because I've honestly never really dealt with 3ds rom hacks before, so I don't know much about the file structures or anything like that. If you have any idea on where I'm going wrong with this (or how else I might go about patching this into the game) I'd greatly appreciate it.

As far as I know, the only way to patch a cemu game with this is to convert everything over to main rim format rather than dlc format, which is a very involved process that Deathchaos would have to handle. Unless cemu has a way to handle dlc, that's the only alternative.

The only way to make this work on Citra would be to make everything into an actual Romhack.

If that were easy, this wouldn't be a custom DLC in the first place...

Reactions: Omegablu
Hello I had a quick question and I apologize if this is the wrong time or wrong place but how do I combine both DeathChaos25's and Omegablu's hack together? I thought I heard a way to do it but I don't know how to do it. thanks!
 
install both cia, that's worked at least for me
But how exactly do I do that? Do I follow the instructions for Omegablu's hack to install both or DeathChaos25's hack instructions? also where is the file for it? is it the RAR file in the op of this thread?

Pick one of the cia's and run through the process to get the characters, then uninstall the cia and install the other one. Run that dlc and profit. Let me know if you need more clarification.

Ok thanks I think I get it now. So I'm assuming that I don't need the RAR file? Also does this whole process require CFW?
 
I downloaded the CIA, and everything works, but now I can't download any of the other DLC. I've tried uninstalling the CIA, but I just keep getting the same message over and over again. "An error has occurred. Please try again later. If the problem persists....etc.". Anybody know how I could fix this?

Uninstall the dlc in FBI or whatever installer you use.
