You can try mine instead. Just dumps to "sdmc:/Update"

It dumps both the pending and current firmware. I've been updating this way for months, and I've found that sometimes both are required.

It does actually.. can you please cleanup all the off topic posts if you would be so kind,
Anything related to "JK" can be discussed on a thread dedicated to it, not hijacking this one.
Thank you.
I was trying to help you while you where not active I didn’t want users coming to this thread and downloading the commit on biggest dump by accident instead of firmware dumper when it clearly does not work properly I suggest you clear anything related to this app and let him move on. Firmware dumper I have tested thoroughly with pending and it dumps a 1:1 copy every time.

I moved the offtopic about BiggestDump to a new thread (not the officially created thread as it was created only after all these messages, otherwise it would mess the official thread's first post)

@fOmey i wanted to let you know I used your firmware dumper to dump v6.2.0 pending but it would not work with ChoiDujour when it checks the files it errors out at the end about missing meta file so it won’t let you install the pending firmware I went back and tried to dump the firmware again but every time it’s missing this important meta file I’m not sure if this is an issue with FDumper dumping a pending update or something else. The registered update installs all ok.

Hi can we use this to dump the 7.0 firmware for clarification? I know 7.0 is useless rn but I’m going to update regardless as I don’t care about cfw rn I usually just wait till the newest firmware patch is ready but I still want to play online for the time being. Please no “you’ll get banned” shenanigans or “updating is useless” etc
@fOmey I don't know if this very useful tool is still being worked on, but now that emuMMC is out it would be really cool to be able to dump the firmware update from another emuMMC path or partition than the one currently booted ! This way one could update a clean unbaned emuMMC via Horizon, then switch to another emuMMC used for homebrew, dump the update from the clean emuMMC and apply it via ChoiDuJourNX without having to rely on a computer nor having to temporarily boot a CFW on the clean emuMMC.
I can please ask you to update the tool, because controls no working in newest fws to dump, then need wait darthsternie dump and upload

Yes, I have the same problem as rodrigues. The controls (A, B, and +) simply don't do anything, the program is basically just sitting taking up space at this point
Banned consoles should still be able to download firmware updates unless they are CDN banned which is rare and not being distributed anymore nowadays.

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:
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:
@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:
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:
@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:
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:
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

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:
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 -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
