Homebrew Homebrew Development

[Asia81]

I wonder if there is any FTP homebrew available in CIA.
Maybe with not a GUI, but at least something cool like the JKSM menu (I want something easy to navigate).
I don't want use the official transfer data management.

All I want transfer are tiny files, like savegames, not .CIA files.

I believe you can use osGetFirmVersion()

Thank you!

Have you tried this? https://github.com/mtheall/ftpd/releases

I'm trying to compile GBARunner2 and everytime I type in make in CMD it outputs this

"
C:\Users\MyName\Downloads\GBARunner2>make
make -C arm7
make: make: Command not found
make: *** [arm7/GBARunner2.elf] Error 127

C:\Users\MyName\Downloads\GBARunner2>
"

Does anybody have any clue as to why it is doing this?

EDIT: It appears adding "
export DEVKITPRO = /c/devkitPro
export DEVKITARM = /c/devkitPro/devkitARM"
to the top of the makefile resolved this issue.

How is homebrew like Ntr made there aren't any guides on to make homebrew like it?

How can I add a library to my project? Most of them don't provide instructions on how to add them.

I'm trying to link Caelina to my project. I've successfully installed devkitPro to my machine and I am able to create and build projects with it, with a Makefile I got from a template. I've attached my Makefile below (and added the .txt extension).

Some background about my programming experience:

• I'm not familiar with makefiles. I'm using one from a template I downloaded now and I can read and mostly understand it, but I can't make one myself from scratch.
• I am able to link libraries installed in Linux, like GTK, to my C++ projects.
• I am familiar with Java and the gradle build system.
• I am able to create 2D games with Java.
  
• I know basic level C++
  
• I am using 64-bit Linux

Thanks in advance!

If you installed caelina and it's prerequisite libs, you have tio add -lcaelina to your libs variable, that in your makegile is at row 63:

LIBS := -lctru -lm

looking at the examples in caelina source, probably you have to add -lGL too, so it will look like:

LIBS := -lcaelina -lGL -lctru -lm

remember that the order matters.

It still doesn't work. I added the lines in the Makefile and dropped the libcaelina.a, libGL.a and libGLESv1.a to the ./libs folder. When I try to compile the project now, it gives an error at

#include "GL/gl.h"

source/main.cpp:4 fatal error: GL/gl.h: No such file or directory

EDIT: that's working after I added all files from the include folder of the Caelina release archive into the ./include folder of my project.
Now I'm getting the error "Cannot find -lcaelina" and "Cannot find -lGL" from Make.

I've attached my project structure in the attachments.

The purpose of this thread it to help with homebrew development by centralizing all progress, and having a place to discuss development.

Getting started: http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/3DS_Homebrew_Development

You can find a list of current released 3DS homebrew on Wikitemp.
If one is missing, feel free to add it to maintain a list of existing releases.

Examples of released homebrew:


Rop Loaders

fierce waffle's ROP Loader

Alternate Rop Installer

Rop Multi-loader(use this one)


Development

fierce waffle's RAM dumper

Python Tools for 3DS

Ya, I love homebrew! But I can't seem to find any "Excellent" ones. Any quake ports?

Read the intro, this if for developement, not to find releases.

There is another sricky thread for with a list of hb, and there is a wiki page too.

Is there any way to use websockets on the 3DS with SSL? I know that the 3DS has built-in Socket and SSL services, but is there any way to maintain a websocket connection using these? If not, are there any available libraries that might support cross-compilation on the 3DS?

How would I remove auto exit from an app want to make the input redirection cia work with mode 3 but the auto exit causes a reboot. I've tested with dev2 using the config menu and it works fine it looks like the only thing that needs changing is getting rid of auto exit and making it an extended memory title.

Can someone link me a (noob friendly) set up of romfs and stuff for making a .cia? I used those build tools to create the .cia but it only works if you have the resources in 3ds (the same as the 3dsx) folder and I was wondering how do I package all the resources (graphics and audio) in the cia. Any idea?

There is a sample of romfs use the devkitarm examples on github, or you can copy from one of the many homebrews using it (mine for example).

It's very simple, you have to call romfsInit() at the beginning of your code, and romfsExit() before exiting.

Than you have to put all your data files in a folder that will be the root of your romfs archive (I use to name it "data" in my project structure, but you can use any other name); inside it you can have files organized in subfolder, and you can load them with usual file IO functions adding romfs:/ at the beginning of the file path.

Then you have to use a makefile that can build a romfs (again use an example of 3ds homebrew on github), and it's done.

To build a cia, you have to specify that you vant to use the romfs service in the rsf file (for this too copy from an homebrew example)

PS: remember that romfs is case sensitive

I used a template for .rfs, but I can't find a hb example able to build romfs into cia. Can you send me a link or gimme an idea?

In my signature there are the links to all my released games. All the latest releases use romfs (POWDER 3DS for example)

Copied the rfs and makefile from Powder3ds and edited them for using my files (And data) but the .cia created doesn't have the resources included. How do I include them?

Load the code somewhere (e.g. github) and I'll look into it.

Does anybody know how to play legit cias on ver. 11.3 non-CFW'd, homebrewed o3ds? I'd downloaded a few if them in ver 11.2, and I got a copy of that sd card? Can somebody help me?

This isn't the right thread to ask such things.
