Who said anything about menuhax? I use a9lh (and have since it came out) but I like using emunand, and I dont want to update it, I just want to get rid of the nag thats it.
So much presumption on these boards.. jeez.
In before you tell me to get rid of emunand and just use Sysnand. I dont want to, I have my own reasons. I like emunand.

yeah, or you could update manually by downloading the release on the luma github page and replacing the arm9loaderhax.bin on your sd card.

Yes then you choose to eather install the latest stable version or the hourly.It also makes a bakup of the old version you had with .bak on the root of the sd card
I tried updating Luma from 6.6 to 7.0 with the Luma Updater 1.4.2 and got an "Update complete" message. However after the reboot Luma is still on 6.6. I checked the version with the Updater as well as holding Select on startup. In both cases the current version is 6.6.
I tried updating manually, downloading the Luma 7.0 7z file and extracting arm9loaderhax.bin. While looking at my files on my SD (over the built-in wifi manager) I noticed that my arm9loaderhax.bin already has the same filesize as the one inside the Luma 7.0 archive. I replaced the file anyway. My n3dsxl booted up normally and when I checked the Luma version it still says 6.6!
One curious thing to note. When I was looking at the files on the microSD I that noticed all the files had an 1.1.1601 filedate.
The Luma Updater worked fine when I was going from 11.2 to 11.3. This and updating the HB_Loader were the only things I modified after the initial hack. Apart from downloading a few games.
I'm using a New 3DS XL with 11.3.

Setting my locale language and region to Japan for System Settings crashes and sets my profile region to Japan.
Go here http://smealum.github.io/3ds/ scroll down enter 11.2 xxxxxx then click download otherapp.
When you have it rename to OLD-11-4 XXXXX and place in homebrew loader folder of your internal sd card.
I'm still not able to load custom romfs when I recreated it in H:\luma\titles\000400000007AF00\romfs\, and enabled game patching.
Loading the game doesn't change anything.

I have the cart of that game, tested it now and layeredFS triggers, so it definitely works.
huh strange, since I've tried everything I could and can't get it to work at all.

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:
@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:
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:
@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:
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:
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

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:
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 -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?

) -

@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)

when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying+1 -
