Homebrew Help

[Wolfsbane1985]

I need help learning how to turn a homebrew app into a payload to load with Luma and A9LH (like Emunand9 and Decrypt9)

Thanks for any help or advice

Generally you can't. The homebrew ecosystem that most homebrew relies on does not exist in ARM9 kernel mode. ARM9 homebrew is written specifically to work without it.

So you are saying i can't make it so an app i create will load on boot (ex: start_myprogram.bin) in the Luma folder?

no he was saying you can't "turn a homebrew app into a payload".

I think your question is actually "how do I make ARM9 Homebrew to launch as a payload" ? Though I can't be sure, you left the initial questioning ambiguous

Yes that is what i meant

I don't think it's very well documented (as in, there's no page explaining exactly what you need to do to make a working "hello world" payload for example)
A9LH payloads are the same as Brahma payloads, so you can start by looking at some example code of Brahma payloads: https://github.com/patois/3DSProjects/tree/master/Brahma/examples
You could probably use one of those as a starting point for your own homebrew.
Though, I am not sure if there are any specific changes required to make Brahma payloads bootable from A9LH, or if they just work out of the box.

I'll start there. Thanks
