I'm installing ACNL which is only 800mb and it's been on the installing page for 15 minutes. Is it safe to just hard reset and try again?

Edit: As soon as I posted, it completed. Nevermind! Haha

If the error says "soon2/hws" instead of "soon2/hwc" there is probably something wrong with the SOON2.cia or SOON2.3ds file you are using, it could be corrupted. Please, re-install it (or re-paste it if using .3ds).

If the error says "soon2/hwc" then you do not pasted the "SOON2" folder in your SD Card. Paste it in your 3DS' SD Card.

Progress bar version it's coming soon. I already posted a video about it.

I guess you ask why the mechandising.
Well, SOON!2 server costs 16 euros for 3 months.
SOON!2 it's a free software. Using just the coinurl links we only have obtained 0,03912 USD (yeah, only that). No donations have been made so far.
We need a way to keep SOON!2 servers online.
SOON!2 server host the art files for updates, the application and also will host homebrew for direct download in a future using a in development software ("Homebrews are coming SOON!").

SOON!2 servers reached the free broadband limit in less than 1 hour when the application was launched. We needed to upgrade it to premium using our own money.

If people do not wanna donate, they can also buy some stuff, so they can obtain something back for helping SOON!.

I think this project will die fast then. I don't understand why you have made such a big CIA installer (art boxes, etc.) that is linked to a server when it can made offline, too, so DevMenu, the newest FBI 2.0.5 and BigBlueMenu are better here.

I've been using SOON2 now for about a month. I gotta say, this is my favorite installer by far. Speed is great, and my favorite feature is the uninstaller. Quickly identifying what I want to uninstall is amazing.

SOON!2's uninstaller is the one function I never use. System settings uninstalls much easier and does allow you to backup your savedata.

We need some way to combine this UI and noob-proofiness, with the CDN downloading of CIAngel! And maybe even allow getting the keys needed straight from the title key site.

About the hosting issue... why not use a free host like x10? (as a backup at least)

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • 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!
