Hacking Official [Release] CakesFW

[Vappy]

Yes, but github mirror doesn't contain all hacks. In case of cakes it does, yes

It covers everything which uses CakeHax, so Cakes, rxTools, ReiNand, all of d0k3's tools.

i feel as i'm doing something wrong...

i have dropped all the files into the right spot but i'm still getting a failed to load firm message when i load up cakesFW 138

am i doing something wrong?

You need to specify more info on your setup. Which entrypoint/firmware are you using? Browser, MSET, a9lhax?

Yeah I know it covers cakehax. But there multiple other stuff that it doesn't cover, such as loadcode

That's only failing to load AGB_FIRM. It's completely optional, and doesn't actually accomplish anything in Cakes atm since there's no patches written for it. You can safely ignore it, Cakes should still work fine.

works for me, thanks

So I have what I assume is the latest version of Cakes (it says 138 on the boot screen), but I can't start Smash 1.1.15. With the "survive reboots" patch off, it gives a critical error forcing a manual shutdown, if it's on, it gives a black screen. What do ?

Have you tried to repair/reinstall the game? Also you'll need reboot patches for it, so keep it on if you want to play Smash.

Lemme try a full reinstall, should I install DLC before the update or after ?

It doesn't matter, but if you want to be safe, install it after the update.

Okay it works ! Just to know : do accepting the ToS for Spotpass and the share functions *EFF* up anything on EmuNAND ?

I don't know what *EFF* means But it's perfectly safe and won't mess up with anything AFAIK.

If I accept it, it acts as if I declined. that kinda disable online so... Any ideas ?

Hmm, do you have a working NNID btw? Smash is one of those games that require it. But well, it's kinda weird, does it show any kind of error pop-up explaining why it was "declined"?

 

[Don Ravioli]

No, just that "You will need to accept to use online"

EDIT : And yes, there is a working NNID on it.

 

[matpower]

No, just that "You will need to accept to use online"

Hmm, try to accept that from eShop or from the System Settings, it should be the same AFAIK.

 

[Don Ravioli]

But it doesn't prompt me to do so. That, or I don't know how.

EDIT : Unless : since I use a US RF game on an EU 2DS, does that mean that because the ToS don't match, it refuses to do it ?

 

[matpower]

Well, I was taking a guess here, because eShop asks you to agree with the online terms and so does the System Settings when you connect/update your system.
I'm going to take another guess here about your setup:
European 3DS running latest FW(10.7-33E or something like that)
European Smash CIA + updates + DLC
Is that right?

Close as I said about, Smash is US, patched region free. Mainly to not deal with Sonic's absolutely horrible french voice, and the much better US announcer.

Hmm, that might be the issue, I'm not 100% sure, but maybe it doesn't work because it uses NNID and they are different/region-locked? I guess you could test this theory by getting the US Nintendo Badge Arcade CIA and see if you get stuck in the ToS too.

 

[Don Ravioli]

Can't find the US one, I however found the japanese one, and... it does not even want to boot. Great.
