Hi everyone, I just got a Sky 3d card and I have some doubs and looking for some opinion as well.

My doubs are:
- When I play some game through Sky 3ds, it says there is an update available in the eShop for that game, will it work if I install? Is there any risk of ban?
- My console is in 9.2.0-20E FW. is there any reason to update? (i.e.: games that require higher firmware through Sky3ds, etc)
- I heard about Nintendo starting to ban, is it true? What is considered risk behaviour?

Opinion:
- I have another 3ds, one on 4.5.0-10E. For some reason I can't read QR's on Cubic Ninja (is there way to fix this without update btw?) [Using Sky3ds I now can]. In case there is another advantage, should I update my 9.2.0-20?

Thanks in advance for any help.

1 You can go on eshop without problems
2 I suggest you to not update
3 If you play online with public headers you can be banned

I don't want to open a new thread, so I'm gonna ask here:

Are system updates stored on games? I mean if a game requires a higher firmware can it be updated through the game on Sky?

So one possible "safe" and free method to update would be buy a game from a place that allows returns under x hours/days, use it to update then return. Or just use a friends game (assuming the game is on newer firmware). But I assume it's safe to just connect to the net with the card not in the system and update normally. Or even with the card in the system it's probably safe to update, as long as you don't play online with public headers.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar

    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
