First off, stop spamming the questions, second, what do you mean by it doesn't work?

 

[whostolemywaffle]

@Dionicio3 it doesnt work i enabled game patch and i created a folder in luma/titles/the id/the id.txt and put JPN JP and when i load it freezes the yellow train and crashes and even with any other titles it doesnt work but im focused on acnl

@Dionicio3 hopefully u can help

You didn't have to do all that, I'm pretty sure you can run games region free with luma by default. I'm either wrong or you didn't configure luma right

 

[whostolemywaffle]

@Seliph im using the legacy version of luma i configured it as enable game patching and show nand or user string and when i take away the titles and .txt it still doesnt work i have to use hans and i dont wanna keep going into hans i just wanna launch the game

If you use the luma locale switcher then you can change the region of your game to be region free

whats luma locale switcher?

 

[Seliph]

It's a .cia that allows you to change the region of your game. If your game is crashing then I think your problem is actually the patch that you're using or your version of luma, it shouldn't crash if you're playing an out of region game. Try deleting it and launching ancl and see if that works.
You really should be on the latest version of luma btw.

@Seliph cant if i use the latest i get arm11 crashes

Are you trying to use b9s or A9lh?

 

[whostolemywaffle]

@Seliph the lumalocaswitcher worked and im using b9s
