[Nanquitas]

Maybe, sounds odd but it's a possibility.

I'll look into it.

[Nanquitas]

Of course you can too, just select custom path and save.

The defaults paths in the custom mode are the root of the SD.

well how do I get back to that menu?? should I uninstall and reinstall?? I did get rid of the ntr.bin files on the root. of course this was after I finished copying the 3.2 bin file to the ntr folder in the 3ds folder on my card. its set to default btw. seems to not be freezing my game now. I was having difficulty with even 3.4 for a bit there. the selector was saying it couldn't find the files. which I thought was weird. this was upon installing the new version btw. I think that pretty much covrs everything I was going to say. great lil menu btw. and so so fast. it didn't even seem to mind me having the most of the game icons loaded before I booted into it either which is nice. well now ive said everything lol. sorry to be long winded hun.

If you want to change the configuration, press Select while the app is loading and keep it pressed until you got the background rendered.

The .bin files are automatically sets by the app. They are packed into the cia and will be copied on the right place on the sd card.
You don't need to worry about that anymore.

The version 3.2 will always stays on the root as "ntr.bin". It's the only version that can't be moved.

I see. tyvm for that information

I just switched from default BootNTR to Selector and I notice that when launching it 3.2 is automatically selected. Can this be prevented or changed? I have a new3DS and my preference goes to 3.4, both due to streaming & due to custom path.

(I was thinking of just swapping out the ntr.bin on root with a 3.4 one but I figured I'd first ask if it's not already possible to change the default)

 

[Nanquitas]

Just select 3.4 on the selection screen.

After one successful loading, the last selected version becomes the default one.
Also changing the ntr.bin doesn't change anything except that you won't be able to load 3.2 anymore.

You can stop the timer by pressing any key during the countdown btw.

Ah ok thanks!

Could you find the problem with the streaming feature that only works for me if NTR 3.4 is named ntr.bin? Did it work for you without that trick? I'm just curious if this is a problem that only my system has.

 

[Nanquitas]

My tester tried it with his N3DS and it worked like a charm right away.

No needs to edit anything. :/

Seems to be your system only.
Try to uninstall it and reinstall.

Well I let the Selector generate the files and now it works. But those ntr files are modified. I ran a MD5 check.

 

[Nanquitas]

Of course they are.

The new selector patches the 3.3 and 3.4 to allows custom path and better names for the dump mode.

So that's the reason why it didn't work. I didn't know that NTR CFW can be patched without the source code.

 

[Nanquitas]

You can do light patch without the source code by searching in IDA, but having the sources is preferable.

What exactly was changed for the Selector? I noticed that the debugging feature is already activated after booting 3.4. And then of course there is the custom path feature.

 

[Nanquitas]

Yup, I trick the check for the debug.flag file's check so doesn't need it anymore.

The patcher change the different path and the Selector allows to launch NTR in dump mode with L + R + UP + X, it'll dump the kernel, FS, SM, PM and Homemenu.

What exactly is the dump mode? Is it dangerous to activate it or is it just a list with details about the OS? And when do I have the press the buttons? After I launched NTR CFW?

 

[Nanquitas]

It's not dangerous, it'll just create the files with the data of each process.
It's for study and helping with the update support.

You stop the timer and press the buttons if you want to use it.
It's after the updater but before NTR is launched.
