i downloaded the firmware v.18 unzipped and copied the update file to the root of the micro sd copied the latest eos version to the root of the micro sd and on the website it said the eos will detect the upgrade file but it never did it just said an error has occured
its actually a dat filerename the update.nds to updateb.nl and leave it on the error screen for 5 minutes (with the adapter plugged). Then restart the 3ds and it should work
if you are using a 3ds what FW is it on (4.4.0-10?)
if you have NOT have card to updated to work on that fw
to updated the card, you WILL NEED a system that can run the update
if you have NOT have card to updated to work on that fw

you got it a little bit mixed up right now
you need to format your card and put the update file AND the EOS on the SD kart.
now IF you are updating with the supercard ds lite than start it and start the update. IF you are updating with your 3ds than RENAME the update.dat file to updateb.dat and leave it on the error screen for 5 minutes.
you can also download the tool in my signature (3DStool) and start flashcard operations from it and follow the instructions

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:
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?

@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 -
