Is it ok to update the game first before using the patch? I'm going to use the luma3ds method
EDIT: nvm I got it to work. Thank you so much for this

As mentioned previously, Piplup and Prinplup's entries have a bunch of stuff duped from Infernape, and same for Rapidash over to Slowpoke. There's also that low-level Seviper trainer on Route 115, and Zinnia's second battle is easier than the first one.

Other people have mentioned these things before but I feel like you may not have seen it.

I fixed the personal entries for the Slowpoke bug (and piplup and prinplup) in the latest patch. Seviper trainer wasn't fixed. Zinnia's second battle is intended to be easier because it's impossible to lose that battle, if I made that an actual challenge it would mean nothing. The Lv70 Mega Ray is much weaker than the rest of your team and would drag you down quite a bit if Zinnia had her main team.

I havent been able to find info within the installation guide....
Can I run your RomFS patch with Luma3DS + Pokemon Omega Ruby AND the 1.4 update? Or would it overwrite changes?

If you run RR/SS with the Luma3DS method and 1.4 installed, it'll run and you'll get all the romhack changes, *but* you won't be able to go online and you won't get any of the patches' changes.

Yes.

Yeah, I dont really care about online tbh. As long as I can run the game with the romhack enabled + no update nag 24/7 when I hover over the game in the home menu I am happy.

I don't really get what you mean by the "patches' changes". (maybe 1.4 update changes?)

Yes, "patches" refers to the changes in official updates, such as the fix for displaying thrown non-standard Poké Balls.

Not sure if this is a stupid question or what not, but if I do the CIA/Dumping process for Star Sapphire, would the modded/new CIA overwrite the original version I have, or would it be in it's own separate title?

It will overwrite your current Alpha Sapphire install and save file. If you already have Alpha Sapphire, just use the Drag and Drop package instead of creating a CIA.

Sorry if I'm being dumb but not sure the replies are being direct enough for me.

Can I update the game to the latest version and still use the mods? I know there was one rom hack where it broke compatibility. And would this apply the Luma and cia version?

  • Luma 7.0+ Drag and Drop: Works with game updates installed
  • HANS: Works with game updates installed
  • CIA: Requires game updates to be uninstalled
  • Gateway/Citra: Requires game updates to be uninstalled
No version implements the actual changes that are part of the game updates.

If you are on CFW, use the Luma 7.0+ Drag and Drop version.

Did the Luma drag and drop, is May's outfit supposed to not change with this method? I'm on Luma v7.0.5 and the title screen is different but rival May's outfit is still red.

Are you playing Ruby? Brendan and May are dark red in Rutile Ruby. The blue costumes are for the Sapphire versions.

Fixed RR 2.2 679 Build ZIP in OP to properly include the 679 Build's wild encounters.

I have an issue with installing this hack.

I've installed Omega Ruby (.cia on SD) and copied HansPack to SD root. Then by Homebrew Launcher I tried to open Pokemon Rutile Ruby and I get this:

"An exception occured

Processor: ARM11 <core 0>
Exception type: data abort
Current process: 3dsx_app"

And after that a lot of adresses and all that stuff.

I am using old 3DS.

if you can install CIAs you can use Luma 3DS LayeredFS instead of HANS. Use that instead.

I don't really know what to do. I have Luma installed, yes, but I don't really know where to go and what to do exactly (I hacked my 3ds for the first time a few days ago)

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • 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
    +1
  • 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

    yes looks like an faulty sd

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

    It's always worth a shot
