Thanks for the help... Are there any dangers I should watch out for during the emunand process??
(Reminder I'm on 10.1.0-27U with Homebrew access)

Pokemon generation 1, allegedly!

Emunand, not really (well, after creating a nand backup but before making a backup of SD files and creating emunand, I recommend going through PastaCFW or DevMode in rxTools to install a fbi.cia on sysnand, saves headaches with injection).

But downgrading, there's a risk that after a "successful" downgrade your console will only boot to an error screen.
You can't predict that, and the fix involves updating to 10.5 or whatever's the current firmware.
You can defend against this possible failure (the causes are still unclear) by doing a factory reset before downgrading, you can use 3dsx homebrews to backup saves and extdata but you'll lose your activity log and Mii Plaza game progress + streetpassed Miis...

People are crying to me on skype about this new error code before i even heard of it. I knew that updating emunand would solve it but they say "it'll patch everything". Some people are so dumb.
Not to bother you, but after updating, I've received many new error codes. It's bit confusing. Nintendo is cracking down hard on us. :ph34r:

Risky compared to what?
It sounds like the only reason this guy is still on 10.1 is to install legit cia, and considering there likely aren't any more legit cia coming out, being forced into upgrading through a softbrick should only mean the loss of homebrew at most for him.

That is assuming restoring a softbrick doesn't involve deleting your tickets for titles, which I'd hope it wouldn't.
Really? Is it that easy/safe? I have never tried it but I have a friend that wants it done on his 10.4 n3ds

If you're doing it for the region free aspect of it, then there's not point in using NTR with rxTools. Although yes, I believe NTR works with rxTools.

yeah, but there will be a patch for this stuff within 24h. 2 ways to bypass the friends list and online play thing already
( Gateway user speaking. ) I don't use any free CFW. I paid for GW and use only their CFW. After the update, I've been soooo many error codes on so many things. Also, I think they updated something to prevent cheating in some games. I made a VR hack for MK7 and after updating, it didn't work. Not to mention my error codes don't have a specific number sometimes....? Error code 000-0000/0001/0002. It only informs me an error occurred. That's all. Sometimes I'll be playing offline on my games with no internet and it boots me out of games... I cannot understand technology sometimes. I have no clue what's happening.

it's just in case I want to install the fan translation of Fire emblem If/fates and its DLC...or the US version + DLC once it releases since apparently there's no news about an European release...

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

    Some temporary storage

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
