Best way would be to use something like Decrypt9 - https://gbatemp.net/threads/download-decrypt9-open-source-decryption-tools-wip.388831/

Note you need an already hacked 3DS to use this software.
what do you mean? how to use it? i not still not hack 3ds file. i just downloaded in my computer. and i just just want extract data from it. Is you say use decrypt9 tool? is have video tutorial or this? how success % i can have with this tool. have you ever try?

You need to have a 3ds capable of running decrypt9 (a ds on 4.5-9.2) in order to decrypt roms. Then you need a tool to extract the files (search on here for that).
edit: dont rely on video guides, they are usually outdated and bad

This link here will explain to you everything you need to know on how to get a hacked 3DS - https://gbatemp.net/threads/full-st...u-need-to-know-includes-otphelper-now.417606/

The first link I gave you will show you how to run the software you need in order to decrypt the roms so you can view them as needed. Finding already decrypt roms may be possible though I wouldn't know where they are and even if I did I couldn't give you a link anyways.

the point in decrypt9 is to allow programs to extract files from the rom (romfs and exefs). romfs contains all respurces for the game, and exefs contains code and some other things. After you decrypt (if the rom is encrypted) you need to use ctrtool to extract the files.

Errrr... After you have your decrypted rom, you can extract it https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-how-to-decrypt-extract-rebuild-3ds-roms.383055/
....and "play" with the different files
ahh!! you are a new helper. can i ask you something, do i need a nitendo 3ds XL console to hack the 3ds file, or just only need only computer?

fwiw, the 2ds is much cheaper and is most likely going to be on some firmware that you can either downgrade, or use out of the box for decrypting.

You need a 3DS to decrypt the file (to get all the content, data, code, etc.), and you need a computer to extract and view those files.
Or you can go looking for the decrypted games in *that iso site*.
is anyone success for this hack? if i after i buy a 3ds console, can you help me again?

    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
