I tried downloading the dlc with CIAngel and it gave me the error "Could not install the CIA." In freeshop, it shows only the "delete DLC" button, which is odd because I possess none. What do I do?

Update: I think I found the site you mentioned, but it seems to be giving me a similar problem to CIAngel where it suspends instead of completing.
I'll try tikshop and see if that works as well.

i just googled it and found it, at any rate. As I said though, instead of completing it, it suspends at the end, and doesn't install it just like how CIAngel says "Could not install the CIA"

I see a few threads on reddit about this. First, did you try running tiksweep (FBI->TitleDB->tiksweep) and then relaunching FreeShop and trying? Do you have any DLC installed for Fire Emblem already? If so, you need to delete it first. If none of this works, reddit recommends to go to that iso site and download the DLC CIA. Delete all DLC associated with the game and then install that one.

Also, you have USA version, right? Just double checking. Reddit claims EUR version no workie with DLC.

Also, your avatar looks a bit like InuYasha.

tiksweep... hm.
I'll give it a look. I have tried deleting the dlc for it already, of course, but to no avail.

You can delete DLC in the 3DS settings or FBI. Try the DLC CIA from that iso site. It was the final solution (no Nazi references to see here!!!).

So yeah, it won't work with FreeShop because not all of the DLC is released yet. After June, when all of the DLC is released, you will be able to grab it from FreeShop. Until then, you have to grab the DLC CIA from that iso site. Same with Master Blaster Zero. I hope this helps!

You know, you don't need to do all these hoops. Just get the DLC off FreeShop, and because the app unlocked all the tickets, even after it fails, just go into the game, go to the section that has you manage your DLC, and you can download the DLC within the game individually. That simple. Can be done from the Extras menu on the title screen, or in the world map menu > Connect.

I wonder if you're talking from experience because that most certainly doesn't work.

Yes, from experience. The idea is to attempt the download of the DLC in FreeShop. Until it says suspended. When that happens, ignore the error, and close the store, do not cancel it. Then, open the store again and check that the DLC is "installed". You will know that when the button is shown to be one for deleting it. With that done, just go back to the game and do what I said earlier.

  • 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!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
