@Apache Thunder Could you release 3dsx version for use with Rosalina? I'm specifically looking for DSTT version since that's the only card that fails to load on its own from the home menu without a launcher. 3dsx version of NTR Launcher would be fine if that can be used instead.

Thank you. :)

3DSX versions of SRLs can not and will never work. You must have CFW to use NTR Launcher/Stage2 Launchers and Roselina can not boot DSiWare.

I wonder, is it technical possible to use this via a .3dsx in the homebrew launcher?
I'm trying to mask/hide all homebrew stuff and load the homebrew via the new Rosalina mode from lumaCFW.

Yes. These launchers are SRL and launched in TWL mode, and thus can't be converted to .3dsx format.

I am needing help as well with this. I'm trying to do the magnet hax with a dstt flashcard. I was told that this card will work with nrtboothax. I don't have any custom firmware on my system other than homebrew. I don't even have FBI on there yet. I have all the files (or at least I hope I do.) The system won't read the cart. So the method you have posted on here.....can it run the cart without FBI or any firmware installed? Because if I can get at least that part going, then I'm good to go. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Dstt won’t show or launch on home menu, however it can trigger b9s installer with ntrboothax, if it got flashed.

@Apache Thunder I need your help. I got all the files from 3ds.guide I need. I am using a DSTT flashcard that is compatible. I have no custom firmware on my O3DS XL except for homebrew. The flashcard is not reading. I have watched numorus videos and read tons of articles and I am stumped. Is there a file I am missing to get t to read the damn thing and what steps do I need to take to install it? I hope I'm not wasting my time. It is getting aggravating. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Dstt cannot boot under any OFW on 3ds or dsi.

The one way to boot a dstt under OFW is to use haxstation (https://gbatemp.net/threads/haxxstation-ds-download-station-exploit.473648/).
You can broadcast haxstation using a home brewed wii or a (3)ds(i) that can load nds home brew.

Hello guys, I just wanna ask if my R4 card that I bought back in 2013 will work with this method and what files will I need to Download. The Card is a R4 SDHC Dual-Core 2013 (Bought in 2013) and it has never bricked or anything like that.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Oh and I forgot! Im using Luma, what will I need to """install""" and how I do that

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
