I am currently on Version 4.3 U I thought I was on 4.2 U but I was wrong but anyways, I know i'm able to use the Gateway 3DS if I buy it but how exactly would I use it, I don't even know what firmware spoofing is and don't know where to download it if it's useful, please can you guys tell me some info and a site that's trusted.

Thanks for the answers guys :) but one more thing, I did ask what a firmware spoofer is for gateway 3ds, do you guys know what it is? I'm on V 4.3U on my 3DS and I need 4.5U to play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, I think that a firmware spoofer would allow me to play a 4.5U game on Version 4.3U, do you guys know where I can download it?

Gateway works on 4.1 all the way to 4.5

firmware spooffer means that Game prompted updates are ignored

Firmware on games can be seen here to the far right
http://3ds.essh.co/

games that dont work on Gateway are "Animal Crossing: new Leaf", "Monster Hunter 4"
because more than just a firmware spoofer are needed (team is working on a fix tho)

Firmware Spoofer & Region Spoofer only works with a Gateway card loaded game

yes but is the firmware spoofer apart of the gateway 3DS or is it a software I must download? also can I play eu games on the gateway 3DS if I live in the US?

yes the Firmware and Region Spoofer are both a part of Gateway 3DS, when you load the file the 3DS goes into Gateway Mode (which is region free and firmware spoofed) but once in that mode you cannot load Retail game cartridges, you can only load the Gateway cart

the Blue card is a R4ids.cn Gold clone card
so runs Wood 1.56 (and only that version sadly) so you get a DS flashcard with it, but you need it to install the exploit on a 3DS 4.1>4.5 version

the Red card is the 3DS flashcard which once the exploit has been loaded plays the 3DS rom that is on the MicroSD that is inserted into it

  • 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

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

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
