When I install Steelhax nothing in the Homebrew launcher changes. It still only gives me the option to install steelhax and that's it. Does anybody know how to fix this?

Yes, but I really want to stick to steelhax honestly
You can do that if you want, but you'll be limited to the "Usable Applications" listed at the bottom of http://steelminer.jisagi.net/ , and maybe a couple of others on 3DBrew. Perhaps that's enough for you – but you definitely won't ever be able to run FBI or install .cia applications.

Just put the .3dsx files in the 3DS folder on your SD card and they'll show up in the Homebrew Launcher. Many applications will probably show a yellow screen when you launch them; in that case, you'll need a .xml file. You should be able to use mgba.xml from https://github.com/mgba-emu/mgba/blob/master/src/platform/3ds/hbl.xml and rename it for whatever .3dsx you are trying to run.

If you're getting in the homebrew launcher, then you already installed steelhax. Running the installer again won't change anything since it's already installed. Delete the steelhax installer folder from the 3ds (NOT Nintendo 3DS) folder to remove it.

Steelminer can run only like 3 things though, everything else needs custom firmware which can be installed for free with Frogminer.

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power

    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
