Im sorry For alot of questions guys, but Ive been away alot and well now that im back, Ive been wanting to play for example, SSB online with friends, but to do so I need to make a different header, so to get this straight, I just need to enter random numbers on the header application and hope it works?

Nope, that won't work.

Look for a public header, use a prepatched 3DZ ROM or do it that way:

1.) Dump one of your original cartridges (anything will work) using Gateway.
2.) Use this to extract the header.
3.) Use the same tool to inject your dumped header into your 3DS ROM.
4.) Choose one of three chip manufacturers. Most of the times Macronix will work - if it doesn't, try the other 2 options.
5.) Rename your patched ROM from .3ds into .3dz

That's all! ;)

    @nitr8, If you consider open-sourcing this, then I'm sure somebody could point out the bugs for you in the repository, such as walking through step-by-step on what it's doing.
  • nitr8 @ nitr8:
    I have 2 USB Gecko's. I'm using one for debug printout messages while I use the second one for realtime debugging within Eclipse where I make changes to the code

    @nitr8, Ah good, having two is always handy.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Not sure why you'd want to, but it's a good thing at least.
  • nitr8 @ nitr8:
    You need two if you want realtime-debugging AND debug printout at the same time. The problem is that GDB (the GNU debugger) needs a connection over a serial port while the other one also needs a connection over a serial port. You cannot send debugging commands and printout messages over the same port. It just wouldn't work. I've tested this.

    I should probably see if I can run this natively on a PC using the original commits where I pulled the code from. Basically the repository is the same but the commits were different when it comes to the main game code and the engine overlay...

    BTW: I saw you mentioned me in the link to the ROTT wall bug where a moving wall exits the game map.

  • nitr8 @ nitr8:
    The original developers put an image into the code which would be shown once this bug happens. It's the one you see at the end of the video and it's also the same image I'm using as an avatar.

    Anyway, I hope BLOOD will finally make it's way onto the Wii. I ported DOOM, HERETIC, HEXEN, STRIFE, ROTT and HEXEN II before years ago. I simply cannot imagine that it's too hard to get the game
    running stable.
