[QUOTE="mikefor20, post: 8136828, member: 152834"] Yes, .firm files, I've been doing this a long time. It was .bin now it's .firm... At least I didn't say .dol! lol [MERGED]auto[/MERGED] Okay. To be honest, if I want optimal setup, I need to know your setup. Or risk redoing steps. Is your EmuNAND and SysNAND linked? On your internal SD, inside the Nintendo 3ds folder how many folders with random number names are there? If you have 2 (or more) your NANDS may already be separate. If you change the wallpaper in Luma does it change the wallpaper in GW mode? If NOT just leave the working GW EmuNAND alone and don't move it to SysNAND. Then your GW NAND is setup and all you need is to set up the BootCTR9.firm and configure it to boot Luma.firm and GW.firm (Use the ini data I put in the spoiler)... And don't use fastboot. It's really crappy. Dangerous. Luma all the way. Only use GW mode for your Red Cart Offline. Use Luma for everything else. You can boot to your EmuNAND in Luma too.
