@motezazer I don't know if the quote failed. Here.
@capito27 @nop90 And one more important thing. There isn't any LICENSE that protects the software. I suggest to pick one from [TLDR].
Then it could be discussed on github. I think this CFW is provided AS-IS. So let users themselves take the legal duty.
@AlbertoSONIC Sorry i forgot you.. and you, @Psi-hate, and @felipejfc (doge?).

This is really funny.

I don't care licenses. Nintendo user agreement should be enough for people caring legal matters.

Someone earlier in the thread talked about Download Play not working. It happens for EVERY game I get that's a non-legit CIA. When you go to initiate Download Play distribution aka open a room for Download Play only, it just doesn't even work. It says there's a communication error. You can play local or online just fine, but if you want to start Download Play it fails.
Why do you think this is? Someone I don't think gave enough information on the matter, so I wanted to ask again. I also wanted to ask if anyone else had any luck with non-legit CIAs and Download Play.

So following the instructions to install pasta, following the process. But I never got the software management data is corrupted message and it just gives me the 'there is no accessible software data'.

Still went forward and got pasta installed, but can't do .cias. Any advice on what to do? I'm trying to remove the anti save game restore function on a few games, but am using an older 3DS that's not my main to run the the CFW. Would that be the issue as why replacing the title and import isn't doing anything?

I get the following.


Install failed!
Could not install app.
Raw Error: 0xc8a0802b
Module: AM (0x20)
Level: Status (0x19)
Summary: Invalid state (0x5)
Description: Database does not exist (0x2b)

Ninjhax installed with no problems, and I didn't get any errors opening Pasta and going back into Ninjhax. So the only thing left is to look at any anomalies that occurred. Unless I got a crap version of Savedatafiler AND BBM. But I tried 3 different ones, all the same error.

Is there a way to check to make sure the same that pasta properly installed? Or is there something else I need to download for it to work? My version is 9.2.0.20u.

Have not done anything retaining to Emuand. Only initiated NinjHax and Pasta CFW.
From the opening post of this thread:
Question : I get a database error when installing CIAs!
Answer : If you get an error when installing a CIA with FBI, remember to make a title.db file in your "Nintendo 3DS/id1/id2/dbs" folder, and go to software management to fix the issue, you will then be able to install CIAs with FBI.

That's nice and all, but if actually took the time to read all my posts instead of the last one to make a stock response, you'll see I mentioned doing that but I never got the' software management data is corrupted' message that you're normally supposed to get and it just gives me the 'there is no accessible software data'.

Did you accidentally create a folder "id0" in the "Nintendo 3DS" folder instead of using the hex garble the 3DS should create when you boot to the home menu for the first time?

Example: (underlined parts vary)
SD:Nintendo 3DS/fcd650ca0daf5bd2e43029e801c00e42/c62c00ac4760aeca534430320002544d/dbs/title.db

Negative. I went into Nintendo 3DS, and then the first garbled folder, which lead to a second garbled folder which lead to dbs, extdata, Nintendo DSiWare and title. I replaced the necessary files in dbs.

There are also 2 other garbled folders but they both only contain a second garbled folder and then extdata. I assume they are from my 2 system transfers.

Well, it's gotta be one of the other two if it complains about a missing db. Try creating a folder with an empty title.db file in each of the other two and see if FBI/am:net feels like cooperating after that.

Well hot taco, that actually worked.

Granted when I access savedatafiler It only gives me 002FF and FF40A and says they're both broken.


Edit: I'm guessing this is a side effect of that whole 'data is corrupt' part of the process. How do I put my old data back on the SD card without everything getting wrecked. And is there a way to identify what the Mii Maker and Mii Plaza data is? I tried using this for reference looking through my folders, but no luck

I'm trying to run Pasta CFW on a 7.2.0-17E 2DS and it keeps crashing.
I can run Ninjhax fine but when I try to run Pasta CFW it just freezes there.
Is it normal?

Does online multiplayer with legit cia work in Pasta or in other words, is it safe to try turning wi fi on in game and playing online without the 3DS trying to download a system update?

  • 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

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
