Alright! I'm here to say that YES you can use the go.gatway-3ds.com exploit to run the Gateway 3DS 3.0 ULTRA launcher! Boot Gateway Mode does NOT work due to no red card inserted... Most other features work however. NOTE: DOING A DOWNGRADE WITHOUT GW RED CARD IS DANGEROUS! I DON'T RECOMMEND IT!!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR 3DS!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! If it works flawlessly, let me know.

This is kind of experemental, so DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
That's all I have to report!
UPDATE: You can't run custom launcher.dat files.

2 questions.

1) Will any other DS flashcart (like 4ri Gold 3Ds RTS) work in place of the red GW card?
2) What exactly is the point? As in, what functions ARE available without the blue GW card?

Actually, the blue and red cards are not needed to boot GW launcher.dat now. Normally, you'd install an exploit to DS Settings, but now you don't!
It's quite great!

Red card wasn't needed before either.

Neither was the blue card. Any old 3ds compatible ds card to install the exploit would work.

I am saying, you can run launcher.dat files without flashcarts... ok? Ok...

Pardon me, I'm new. Could you elaborate on point 2? Specifically about CIA maker.

Stuff like 3DSLazy comes with a launcher.dat and you can use this exploit to run it...

Red card wasn't needed before either.

Neither was the blue card. Any old 3ds compatible ds card to install the exploit would work.

My point is no flashcard is needed... at all...
I am unfortunate to not own a flashcart, so this is helpful for those of us who can't get a flashcart.

Lol how is it dangerous, the downgrade packs aren't even out...

Anyway the exploit itself doesn't need the GW card, so you CAN and do everything without it as normal, it's about as risky as people who already have a gateway.


the 2DS didn't exist... Both have system-specific code
And this is further proof you don't know what you're talking about...

I didn't know they were not out yet, so at the moment, even though they aren't out, be careful...

  • 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.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @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)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
