Hey i know this maybe has been asked for many times. but i'm using paleict's guide to go a9lh cakes fw and i want to install aureinand. How do you do it? i tried it once, delete some files from ctrboot9 and the cakes fw itself, but it only gives me black screen. i already copied arm9loaderhax.bin and copied rei folder to my root. thank you for your answers :)

I'd recommend not using ctrboot9, as AuReiNAND already has a boot loader.

So place everything from the latest AuReiNAND zip and place it on your SD card. Don't forget to place the proper firmware files on your SD card.

Do you already have A9LH installed? AuReiNand arm9loaderhax.bin will not load until A9LH is installed.

He updated the guide for that: https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-5-(arm9loaderhax-&-AuReiNAND)

Do steps 1-9 as prescribed and take note of the image below to match what should be in the root of your SD card.

It depends on what you want really, the question of using BootCTR9 or not. If all you want is Decrypt9 early on at boot, the way AuReiNAND does it is fine, but if you want that and more (and more configurability) than BootCTR9 is a good choice.

Thank you, mate i'm gonna try it then it really helps .

I already installed a9lh but i want to switch from cakes fw sysnand to aureinand sysnand. but i'm kinda confused about the process, since the instructions in the front of this thread it's not very clear for me. (maybe) for me only.

wow thank you very much! I didn't know that plailect updated his guide. thank you!

I see, maybe i should read more about BootCTR9 to determine whether i'm gonna use it or not. Thank you!

Any help guys. I have right now a emunand booting with sysupdate flag in the rei folder and pressing L and autobooting emunand. How can I start fresh and new on a stock sysnand with A9LH and wipe the lot, keeping the hack.

Yes. I can even repair cia stuff i download and didnt bought lol

Also this is a must for the new VC pokémon games to run in cia I dont know exactly why.

thanks for a speedy reply, just confirming this is within sysnand and not emunand ?

There is also uncart, and maybe other cfws you want to be able to boot sometimes(maybe later gw). Its not possible to boot more than one other payload using aureinand alone.
Also you would need to have a special decrypt9 version with screen init to be able to use it on aureinand and arm9loaderhax without screen init, while bootctr9 has screen init included with support to configure screen init and screen brightness(later also for the payloads itself).

  • 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

    yes looks like an faulty sd

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