If this thread reaches 1 million views and sx os is still not 100% fully cracked. I will personally buy the top 100 whiners in this thread a sx os license.
What's your whole sale cost on that? 16 bucks? That's a lot of cheddar when its already over a quarter there. Also how will gauge the top 100 whiners?

Anyone tried yet?
What are you, dense or something? This is what the "crack" is all about - it mereley allows you to use the other functions besides xci loading that are normally not accessible without license - homebrew and nsp installation - which you can do both with free CFW, hbmenu and tinfoil already anyway. IT IS UTTERLY USELESS and NOT A CRACK unless the full functions work, which is xci loading - the only thing that CFW can not do yet.

Which is why we need someone to try to load the nro after booting from boot.dat, it might just "work".

they are some functions than the nro use from the sx signature patches than they need be solved.
Today there was a thread but it seems now it is deleted:
4NXCI- A tool for converting XCI to NSP from The-4n.
He said his tool worked fine but the NSP generated only worked on sx because they had patched something than doesnt verify a certificate,which nor atmosfere nor rei does.

the links :

https://github.com/The-4n/4NXCI

and

https://github.com/The-4n/4NXCI/releases

@Chary is there a way you could put back the original version of the OP? All of the information is gone

This would be resolved by booting the TX payload.

So I don't know where is the cart slot redirect , but if put kip_BFE42B40.bin, kip_BFE03880.bin and kip_BFE38890.bin (in firmware folder of decompressed SX OS), renamed fs.kip, loader.kip and sm.kip (hexedited in the header), in sysmodules folder of REISX, the picture link work like in SX OS (with L pictures and with R Homebrew) but it does not find ROMMENU.bin (without pressing anything), with error code 2144-0001: I have tried to put this file (hexedited in the header) everywere named sx.nro (like a call in a SX OS file) and in "apps" folder too...
Note: when launched like HBL, the cart slot redirect error is 2168-0002
(Launching REISX we are red errors but they are illegible because too fast, too small and without log)
The only solution seem a COMPLETE sx_packer.

So you tried with real sx boot.dat and rei's patched nro? I just want it confirmed

I used the TX OS boot.dat.
I loaded the ROMMENU.nro.
I tried load .xci.
Displays the message: Please enter gamecard.
Even with the gamecard inserted.
I tested with Splatoon gamecard, Mario Odyssey and Mario Kart 8.

Edit: I loaded the ROMMENU.nro from hbmenu, loaded via album holding R.

Did you boot the nro from the sx homebrew menu, or did you rename the nro to hbmenu, and load via album?

  • 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!
  • 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)
    Karma177 @ Karma177: @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really...
