I'm trying to figure out what this piece of code does exactly (part 1 done).
Code: 
progressBar1.Value = 5;
            textBox3.Text = null;
            // ---------------- PART1: DOWNLOAD FILES ------------------
            WebClient downloader = new WebClient();
            string file1_url;
            string file2_url;
            string file3_url;
            string file4_url;
            if (comboBox2.SelectedIndex == 0) //oLD 3DS
            {
                file1_url = "http://albertosonic.bplaced.net/pasta/O3DS_file1.bin";
                file2_url = "http://albertosonic.bplaced.net/pasta/O3DS_file2.bin";

Would this allow me to get a higher firm game on the eShop (Poke Toru with NTR Spoof, since I dont want to install any homebrew/"backup" cia) and play it without changing anything in sysnand?

Edit: With to cubic ninjas on N3DS, one for NTR, one for Ninjhax Homebrewloader

Just use one "Retail" Cubic Ninja and install another CN as Cia with NTR-Loader

I have tested the beta 1.3 on O3DS 8.1 usa without firmlaunch it boots fine but with firmlaunch enabled the 3ds just freeze on blackscreen with the line:
"apply patch for type c.... Done!"

in commpanion app show error "pasta CFW has ben found but the system.txt is not found or not complete press OK to create it"

before you run the app file system.txt is 811 after the error has 00


I use the 1.3 beta 4

i have no idea how that'd work but i imagine it'd be similar to loading 3ds roms - install hooks, redirect device descriptors and call kernelsetstate() in order to boot into nds firmware?
Click to expand...
I'm thinking it'd be more so converting NDS roms to load like dsiware, however, dsiware needs to be installed to the nand, and it would destroy MSET every launch (for those using MSET).
I'd love to have my NDS collection digital in a nice folder though!

If we could run them in emuNand when it comes out with Pasta that would eliminate the MSET resetting in sysNand.

i have no idea how that'd work but i imagine it'd be similar to loading 3ds roms - install hooks, redirect device descriptors and call kernelsetstate() in order to boot into nds firmware?

The immediate problem is the fact that it has to be DSiware or it won't boot (I've tried). That and the fact that every game expects an eeprom or similar for saving.

@nop90 I think you said something along those lines? To try and create an application which can load ROM in this format? Are you still pursuing these plans? It would be awesome because I don't like those CIA conversions.

Yeah, I also really don't like using .CIA files since my SD card needs to have enough free space that's more than twice the size of the .CIA file that I want to install.

At least the N3DS accepts 64GB microSD cards which is what I use now. The only reason I use Gateway os for emuNand which nothing else supports on the N3DS for now.

Although I've opened my 3DS so many times to remove the microSD card, the plastic holding one of the screws in broke and the other screw is barely holding on. Thanks Nintendo for not liking us Mac users.

Does this support MSET yet? I'd like the new features, without having to sacrifice mset!

If we could run them in emuNand when it comes out with Pasta that would eliminate the MSET resetting in sysNand.

Your best bet is if someone can get Sudokohax + modified homebrew loader to load them. It will likely not occur directly from the home menu. Good luck finding someone willing to program something like that. :P
