I know this post is a couple of years old, but I'm confused on this. I've installed the NTR CFW following the instructions, I run it, it says to hit home to return to menu, I hit home, try to load a game, and it makes me close NTR CFW to launch the game which disables the X+Y menu in game. I'm on an old 3ds, and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not.

This guide was ok.. There were a few gripes like for instance.. the link for NTR, when you follow it there is no cia until you scroll kinda far down.. THen it didnt even work for me it said unable to recognize firmware and failed to boot.. Im not really sure what to do now but im gonna keep at it...

THanks for your time and information tho...

Edit: I think since i Updated my firmware to 11.9.0-42U and the "latest" version of NTR on that link is for 11.6... I am gonna guess that is my problem...
As for your link in case of firmware issues... Would an OLDER version really solve my problem? thats

Well I am seriously confused right now. So I just tried to install the latest NTR and was hoping to try out some cheat plugins. I have BootNTR.cia installed to root, also ntr.03ds.bin (since I am using older 3DS) but when I try to launch the NTR app from home screen I get an error screen. See attached.

This isnt really the thread you want for this. But you can check out this one https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-bootntr-selector.432911/ which has a up to date launcher for the NTR codes you want to use.

Can someone tell if this NTR CFW got any update after 2017? The last release was in 28 Jul 2017...
I have this plugin wth 3.2, 3.3 and 3.6 and some cheats doesnt work, the boot screen stays in 3DS logo forever... (tryng Shovel Knight and Azure Striker Gunvolt plugins)

the latest release doesn't include a .cia, am i supposed to download one from an older release or do i just not get the .cia?
Also, I get the unknown FIRM error too

Okay so, apparently it doesn't work. I got the same error where it tells me to press X if I want to start ram dumping (?).
I'm using a New 3DS XL and I even tried the other link but that was for an even older firmware (I believe it said something like 10.X). Is this a dead project now? If so, that's pretty sad considering I almost was able to record gameplay without a capture card.
Welp, I'll have to save up for a capture card now.

It has been updated to work with the latest firmware that I know of right here but it's broken with the official luma3ds you'll have to use what they mention in the build cfw luma 3DS 3-g X loader build

    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.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
