I was going to look into it maybe being a Config file, but apparently Rosalina resets its settings upon reboot, so in order to boot it you would need to find a way to edit the memory in which it stores its instructions with the proper buttons.

This is not going to sound good, but you need to wait for a new release.

I mean, wtf developers. I get you tried to bring in a cool sysmodule, but lots of people were happy without it.

And some people are more happy with it; it's only an addition not a replacement.

So i must wait approximately 50 days to get my "L" button or in the approximately 50 days the developers update "Rosalina"?

How to start it without an entrypoint?

It's probaly saving button combo in a file, find it and edit it :P
Oh its that easy? /s

They won't update Rosalina for you buddy, you need to find a config file and edit it, or just recompile Luma with an edited source code

Have you seen the errors. Sure it has great features, but when it comes down to it, they are going to do a lot of rebuilding to make it just as stable again.

And if OP wanted to use Rosalina, guess what. He has to go through input redirection each time just to change the button combo, and then NTR's InputRedirection is very unstable and causes freezes left and right.

Maybe I would feel better if Rosalina stored its info in a config. but apparently I'm just a silly user who doesn't understand anything.

The whole thing should be optional.

What do you mean an entrypoint ?

Read the thread.

On your 3DS -> Boot NTR Selector -> Wait until its back to the Home menu.
Wait for kit-kat to detect your IP, it should almost be instant. If it takes a while, take a look at the Common Errors/FAQ section near the bottom.
On kit-kat -> Go back to the main tab -> Hit Connect -> Give it a few seconds and Voila!

Recompiling would work.

But the config file won't. I.E: Change button combo to: Select

Restart.

Boom, back at L+Down+Select

Then don't use Rosalina if you don't feel like it's worth it ..?

Maybe he shouldn't have broke his L button in the first place ?

It is.

Then I'm pretty sure you're fucked unless changes to Luma are being made , sorry.

Are you blind? Have you not seen all the problems with Luma cropping up with 8.0? Crash here, crash there, crashes crashes everywhere.

I'm saying forcing the user to have it in the source is a bad idea.

@pandavova I'll see if I can recompile Luma and change the key combo.

No, I'm not seeing those god-damned crashes everyone whines about.

    Even my mum slept on that uremum
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
