It means that your O3DS must be *at least* on 7.x. This is just because it doesn't support loading the 7.x key from SD card.
Thank you, sorry for being dumb. Math was never my strong suit ;)

Gonna try this tomorrow. Thank you for your work and thank you Rei for her development of the original.

@Aurora Wright So it's works with NATIV_FIRM 10.4 for O3DS too, it's nice but with only the decrypted one?
I've found only the encrypted 10.4 file on Nintendo serv and it doesn't works :s

Maybe you know how to decrypt it maybe? :)

Edit: Ah 10.2 max on O3DS, 10.4 is only for N3DS x)
that's why lol

If you know how to compile homebrew, you can use Cakes to decrypt it, by editing its source code slightly so that it'll dump the firmware as "unsupported" instead of trying to boot it.

I made a new version. I added (very basic) checks to make ReiNand halt when using an encrypted (Cakes ones) firmware.bin, or a N3DS firmware on an O3DS and vice-versa, and then I re-added the splash screen (it shows for longer than the brief flash of the official build, and boot isn't delayed at all if the rei/splash.bin isn't on the SD card).
Also, the 10.4 FIRM is now used for N3DS (thanks Cakes!), so you need to get it from the "iso site":P
I have the new version all set up and a splash.bin file at root but no splash screen upon boot

I use reinand 2.1 , how could update it to 3.0 ? only exchanging files ?
Yeah, you can download either the official version or this mod. Drag the new files onto your sd card and let them overwrite. You'll also need to update the firmware.bin file.

Also, the latest version is 3.1.

I did not found the fimware.bin file, I download it from somewhere else ?
Since you still haven't stated if you chose this over the official one, I'll help you out on both.

Mod: Go to that iso site, CFW Discussion, and look for the thread made by Aurora. Download the firmware.bin file from there (make sure to use the correct one, depending if you're on a o3DS or n3DS).
Original: Go to Rei's Github. You should be able to find the firmware.bin there.

Hey, could you add support for more than one EmuNAND?
I've one european and one japanese EmuNAND on my SD Card and want to select which EmuNAND I want to boot.
Would this be possible?

  • 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

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot
