So I got everything going up until downgrading and it ended up crashing half way through and leaving me on a partial downgrade. I can't seem to boot into HBL or even get browserhax to work anymore on this partially downgraded 9.2.0-32U so I wanna know if it's safe to format my SD card and System Reformat the 3ds on the partially downgraded firmware and if so, will it put me back on 10.7.0-32U so I can easily start over?

If I'm remember correctly, lastest version of sysdowngrade should downgrade something related to exploit first.
May be you need to change how to run exploit to the same as 9.2. I once have this problem, intall OOT3Dhax for 9.2 and I can do downgrade again.

So technically just change the payload files to 9.2.0-20U ones now since I'm partially downgraded on that and run sysdowngrader again?
I'm technically just downgrading to the version I'm already on right?

Yep, that's what happend to me when I downgrade my 10.7 N3DS mario 3D land.
Although at that time, browserhax is bit broken so I need to use OOT3Dhax.

I formatted my SD card completely and just started over but w/ 9.2 files. Does that make a difference?
uh, I guess no but just replacing the 10.7 payload with a 9.2 one would've had the same effect, rerunning sysdowngrader will finish the unfinished downgrade

But yeah if you ever get the crash during the middle of downgrade (I did both times I've downgraded systems) just change the payload to a 9.2 one and rerun sys downgrader, dont need to format anything, I'm sure doing so will hurt more than help, after a rerun the downgrade will complete

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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.

    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)
