ROM Hack [Released] Bravely Default/Second Uncensored

[duwen]

I will see if I can.
But not now

Even though I'm running the CIA of the decensored version on my o3ds, I'd really love a hans compatible hack to play my legit cart with on my n3ds.
Fingers crossed we get to see it made a reality sometime soon.

Wonderful, I look forward to your work!

In the Hans compatibility list it says this game functions with hans, but I always get a black screen after the logo screens.

I've tried using braindump then I extract the romfs and rebuild. I notice extracting and rebuilding the same files results in a smaller romfs, so something is not quite right.

I went on that ISO site and grabbed the uncensored .CIA and just extracted the romfs file & code file from it. Placed it in the hans folder and seemed to work for me.

Great. I'm doing everything perfectly but i've had nothing but headaches trying to get it working :S hans seems very unreliable and doesn't work for everyone.

I only want the DLC costumes, really, so I'm using the "For the sequel" JP version. It might be incompatible (although it should be exactly the same structure.) I'm moving and Ringabells and Agnes special dlc costumes in place of the "arena" costumes, but even if I just move the romfs.bin that braindump generates to the SD:/hans/ folder and trim the intro it still fails to load at the same spot each time.

I thought smea said you didn't have to trim anymore...

How did you manage to do that, exactly? I tried doing the very same thing last week with no luck. Figured I couldn't since I didn't have XORPADS and such (stuck on 9.9).

 

[Ailuros27]

I was right. No stripping is required. Download the CIA from that site, then follow these instructions, except skip the part where you strip the first 1000 bytes and just rename the RomFS file instead.

Also on 9.9 but I followed the instructions in the link Ailuros posted, just add this line at the end of the cmd code: ctrtool -t romfs --romfsdir=romfs romfs.bin

@RyuuPix You didn't end up having any errors? Whenever I try to create exefs.bin or romfs.bin I get a "exheader hash mismatch. Wrong key?" error.

Although, I am trying to use a "Clean" CIA instead of the Uncensored one. Figured I'd take the models out of it myself and put them into my US romfs since that's about all the uncensored one is.

No, I didn't have any errors

downloading the cia file now and going to try what you guys did on posts above me

haha thanks

 

[ConfusedMujina]

Is the romfs file & code file floating around somewhere on their own?

 

[d4mation]

@RyuuPix Using the Pre-Patched CIA to extract from worked! Thanks for the heads up!

Not that I know of, the prepatched CIA is like 3GB i believe, but only takes like 5-8 minutes to download and extraction of the files is only a few seconds.

No problem

Only 3 minutes to download? Maybe if you have a paid account with one of the hosting sites. Anywho, you can extract your own ROMfs using braindump.

nah no paid accounts, mega co links download pretty fast, and there's another one that has decently fast downloads but i forgot the name
edit: its uplea links

 

[Ailuros27]

I could've sworn I had problems with the megaco link. I don't remember why didn't use that one. I ended up using free.fr or something like that. It took ages. In fact, I cancelled part way through and downloaded the CIA instead, because it was smaller. Then I extracted Romfs from it, which took less time than downloading 3 GB from wherever I was downloading from. If I hadn't needed the model from the pre-patched one, I'd have dumped my own.

yea some links are horribly slow, but dumping through brain dump is too slow for me also. The best download links are mega, google drive, and alternatively Uplea

 

[Ailuros27]

Dumping through brain dump isn't that bad when you have 2 3DS systems and a class 10 SD card.
