Yes, user ChrisX930 did it, search for its post in the previous page.

Haha, at the moment, I'm trying to install the CFW, but I have some problems with it.
I can boot into the CFW, however, after ~10 seconds, whenever I scroll over icons in the home screen, banners fail to load and doing anything besides scrolling causes a freeze, and of course, It fails to connect. I know my IP is correct as whenever I run run.bat, the WiFi light on the 3DS blinks.

The connection should work, I tried to ping the 3DS in CFW Server Mode (holding L while boot)
Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.3.9600]
(c) 2013 Microsoft Corporation. Alle Rechte vorbehalten.
 
C:\WINDOWS\system32>ping 192.168.0.104
 
Ping wird ausgeführt für 192.168.0.104 mit 32 Bytes Daten:
Antwort von 192.168.0.104: Bytes=32 Zeit=5ms TTL=64
Antwort von 192.168.0.104: Bytes=32 Zeit=3ms TTL=64
Antwort von 192.168.0.104: Bytes=32 Zeit=4ms TTL=64
Antwort von 192.168.0.104: Bytes=32 Zeit=5ms TTL=64
 
Ping-Statistik für 192.168.0.104:
Pakete: Gesendet = 4, Empfangen = 4, Verloren = 0
(0% Verlust),
Ca. Zeitangaben in Millisek.:
Minimum = 3ms, Maximum = 5ms, Mittelwert = 4ms
 
C:\WINDOWS\system32>

But still, I get "ctrclient: failed to connect"

this is my run.bat
Code:
installcia 192.168.0.104 1 DevMenu_2x.cia

Oh god, you seem so lost and out of your depth it's painful.

What are you trying to get done?

If you're looking to boot the gateway menu so you can backup your NAND, games or saves. You'll need to download the files for 3.0 ultra from the Gateway website. Inside the zip are 4 folders, ignore the blue card folder, ignore the save tool folder, inside the last folder is the launcher.dat this goes on the SD card inside your 3DS.

Put it back in your 3DS, turn it on and launch the Internet browser. Go to go.gateway-3ds.com and wait. The gateway menu should open momentarily.
If you need to load the menu up anytime again you'll need to hold down the L button.

If you're looking to downgrade I can't help you. But be warned, you'll lose all of you save games if you do.


So we CAN put the launcher.dat into the SD without formatting it?

Never mind. I'm at the Gateway Ultra menu via using the QR code. I don't want my console to be bricked my downgrading. Unless I have to first, backup my NAND

When I was 13 I was playing with an sd card lock and the switch fell out so it was locked forever lol

Now when ever I buy a new SD card I super glue the slider in the unlock position. I had one of those things fall in the carpet, and actually found it. Don't want to go thru that again.

question... is the 4.2 or 4.5.. I dont know which one US consoles get... but when its downgraded.. is that real 4.x or a fake? meaning.. lets say its 4.x...... can this go up to 9.4 from nintendo itself?.... not saying I would..but is it possible... also.. if I downgrade to 4.x... can I put in Super Smash Bros and up it to 8.1? All of this safely mind you... and then if I wanted 4.x again.. just downgrade again? is this possible?

How do you do it without a flash card?
Exactly the same way as you do it with a flash card.

Copy the relevant files from the Gateway site to your SD, and launch the Gateway menu via the web exploit.

Make a backup of your NAND and keep it somewhere safe, then select downgrade from the Gateway menu.

Done.

What If I dont need my nand? why would I need it? this 3dsxl is new... its on 8.1... I can downgrade this... to 4.2.. and upgrade it 8.1 when I want to with Super Smash right?

Can someone give me a detailed step by step on how to do this safely without bricking? please.

Zidapi told you twice. Follow his instructions, make the nand backup. If it doesnt work somehow (it should work if you have a 3DS/XL, no 2DS or N3DS), you would use that NAND backup to restore the 3DS, with a hard mod.

    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.

    never had that i don't think
