huh?

ive just seen gbatemp mods be sticklers with Citra when builds get posted without the source code in the zip itself.

well that might be some kind of misunderstanding, or mods trying to do good but being too overzealous. software licenses are often overly complex and need decent lawyers to understand. and with the nature of this forum and whats discusses here, its better to be too strict than not strict enough.

I *think* that might be because of citra's problem with unofficial, modified builds that have no source attached to them. Who knows if they've put malware, and you can't just recompile from source code because they didn't attach it, so you can't really tell what they've modified, either.

However, in the case of nightly builds, here, you can just point to the exact commit that it was built from to give the exact source code that it was built from. I think that's the difference, at least.

These are zips built from sources you can't get anywhere, that's our issue with them. Enough off-topic now

Hi guys, I have luma running with menuhax. Should I install A9LH? Thank you

Hi guys, I have luma running with menuhax. Should I install A9LH? Thank you

Actually, I think that is much safer and easiest using A9lh instead of menuhax.

I have A9LH and I find it much easier / convenient, it's really up to you tho, if the system works and you like the setup you don't need to update.

Here is a link to a post that does a nice comparison: https://gbatemp.net/entry/why-a9lh-cfw-is-better-than-menuhax-cfw-setup.11207/

Yes you are safe to update, but by latest commit I mean building from AW latest code updates where she fixed the nightly version. I found a build just now by googling "luma3ds nightly 5d86828" where someone hosted nightly builds of luma. Can't post it here tho because it breaks the GPL license.

Her latest updates where because "anti anti downgrading" was not being patched correctly, but stable build silently booted without error, seems this error checking was added post 6.3.1

Right, right, I meant I had the latest release, sorry about that. It's nice to see that the nightly version was fixed, though.
