To get Starter Packs or Free DLCs? And not need to use CIAs? (Because most CIA's are crap, saw it with Pokemon 1.3 Patch which broken Eshop)

so get them from the eshop? AFAIK the eshop spoofer just tricks the home menu eshop. not any ingame ones because they're different. i don't think building it into the CFW would change that. though i could be wrong on that.

ok I don't know if it will work on pasta, but you could use this to also spoof your firmware to access the eshop:

well from what i understand, people are having issues in getting the e-shop inside other games/apps to work.
with this i managed to update my Mii Plaza, which is also another app so i suppose that it should work for all apps/games.

If they would be in Eshop I wouldn't ask :o

NVM :)

Where else would you be able to download DLC officially? There is an alternative but if the DLC and game itself requires a certain firmware version and your not on it or below it than the game isn't going to work.

No. I can't launch anything with spider. I was using the 4.X browser so I tought it was for the old version, so updated to the 7.1 version, but nothing.

And I'm not talking of my code (that will need some debugging), also the simple code.bin template in spider tools crashes.

Yesterday I downgraded my 3DS so now I don't have to ask my son's one.
Spider3DStools is only oriented for 9.x. You would have to modify it to work with other browser versions, or figure out how Roxas launches rxTools from the browser.

Which evidences can you bring to your affirmation?

I tryed memory dump and it works on my 4.X with spider 17567. So are proved to be working both the first stage ROP and the second stage ROP.

The only thing not working are the framebuffer offsets (probably the public ones are really only for 9.X).

I use to draw something on framebuffers to track different stages of the code. I'll switch to use the fill screen register to understand where the code freezes.

Regarding modifying spider 3DS tools, it's what I'm doing. Debugging is unavoidable.

I only say that because of what was said in the official thread so long ago. When it first appeared, I asked if it worked on 8.1, as that is what I am on, and was told it only worked from 9.0-9.4, then later told 9.3-9.4 did not work. If you look at most everything using spider, you'll see they are claimed as 9.x oriented, and that is because most use spider3DStools as a base.

I mean, hey, man, if you have it working on more firmwares, more power to you. I was just telling you what I was told as to help you get unstuck.

Edit: As Zoogie said, maybe ARM9-spider will help.

I'm only searching technical evidences to do not waste time. AFAIK reading the code it should work for every firmware. The only variable is spider version (once linked to the FW version, now independent because everyone can downgrade/upgrade freely)

Ah, now I understand. Which document has the firmware version as a specified variable?

  • 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.
  • 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
