Hacking [Release] lesshax - CFW Optimized 9.2 Payload

[ihaveahax]

Sweet of such quick reply!

May I ask, what is the difference between that and this one, here? Which one offers a more consistent boot (which is my main concern)?

http://ihaveamac.github.io/ninjhax2.x/

both smealum's original and mine should be identical, with mine just hiding the colors and debug information. I don't know if my changes affect boot rate, I never really tested it.

Correct. You can just grab the ropbin payload for your system from smealum's site and rename it to what menuhax is looking for. That will get you 2.7. Not sure how to get 2.6 at this point.

I downloaded the ropbin file here and renamed it accordingly: http://smealum.github.io/3ds/.

Sadly, now it only freezes at the booting image every time.

But I could use the ropbin file (with menuhax, not just ropbin) here: http://smealum.github.io/3ds/

You don't even have to do all of them.

Alright, I've been using it for a week or two now, and it's kind of strange. It does boot 3-5 seconds faster than with menuhax, which is nice, but it's actually been LESS consistent for me than menuhax ever was. Freezes about 1/8 times for me, whereas menuhax was only around 1/15. I'll keep using it (mainly because I'm too lazy to recreate my old payload), but it's something worth noting.

Not sure if it matters, but I'm using the rxTools payload as less.3dsx and ignoring CTR Boot Manager completely, because I don't really ever have to access anything other than that with menuhax.

O3DSXL, sysNAND 9.2.0U, GW emuNAND 10.7.0U with rxTools.

Though I cant simply replace it with the ropbin payload file I found on the official website, it finally turns out that my default menuhax payload was the most updated one as installed by the menuhaxmanager 2.2. The version I found on the debug screen is 2.7.

Here is my test with Aureinand:-

For the default one, the boot rate is so far 100% without any failure for more than 20 boots I had so far. But the shortcoming is that it has quite a few debug screens flashing.

For @ihavemac's version, I got two failure among about ten boots (each freezing at the blackscreen before entering cfw), though it cancelled the debug screen.

For lesshax, I got more or less 1-2 failures among ten.

Surprisingly, the default payload now turns out to be the most stable and consistent.....

I'd say use the most stable one.

This is great. Using it to boot gateway 3ds and aureinand/luma3ds and it works good.

As a Gateway user myself, I think the only two reasons I can think of are "handy cheat searching via real-time/in-game ram searching" and "all of my games I've been using since 9.2 have been in .3ds format on my Gateway, and re-installing .cia versions of those games and injecting each of my saves would be a pain"

I think that's about it, though.
