If you have installed SMChax and it works on 11.1, then if you do a system update (to 11.2, the latest version), then SMChax will still work.

That being said, there's no need to update if you already have access to an entrypoint like SMChax on 11.1 or 11.0, just use ctr-httpwn to access online without having to update your 3DS.

What is SMCHax?

I'm not trying to be rude. It's usually common sense to Google search something before asking. I used Google to find that link. Go ahead and call me rude, though. I honestly don't care.

This is what the noobs of the temp do to people..

Ok, so I tried to update my hax on my cartridge... using my 9.2 o3ds. Couldn't get it to work, it either told me I need a higher firmware to access internet to RUN it, or when I try to enter it via homebrew (using the "use out of country game" option) still froze. I then tried to run the NEW version of it to install that just straight from homebrew onto the cart...and it would freeze still. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. :-/

On this page, it says that it won't work on system menu versions lower than 9.9 (for USA and JPN regions), and so you won't be able to run the game at all on 9.2.

I don't really understand what you mean by "I then tried to run the NEW version of it to install that just straight from homebrew onto the cart".

Have you tried just reinstalling the hax from a another entrypoint? This may work, though it'smore likely that you'll have to find a homebrew-ready 3DS on a system version from 9.9-11.0.

I haven't because it wasn't an issue until now :(

So...now I have absolutely no idea what to do.

You "haven't" what? Tried reinstalling the hax?

Try reinstalling SMChax with browserhax or another entrypoint. If the installer can't load (on 9.2), then your only option is to find another 3DS on a compatible system version.

I haven't tried reinstalling from another entry point. I didn't realize that I could use browserhax to re-install it >.> I've forgotten how to get INTO browser hax from my modded system. I'm sorry I'm so dense, like I've said previously, quite a bit of this is over my head.

By "modded system", do you mean that you have CFW installed? Do you have an updated Emu/RedNAND?

I only have my one o3ds modded back to 9.2 , CFW is what again? And I thought I had installed a way to access the internet so I could scan QR codes from it. :-/

CFW is Custom FirmWare, which you can install if you have a 3DS on 9.2 (or that you can downgrade to 9.2).

At any rate, I believe your only options are to try to use browserhax, or to find another 3DS on 9.9-11.0 that you can use to reinstall SMChax.

I"ll ask the guy who helped me set it up via PM if we did do CFW on my system to hardmod it back to 9.2, cuz it was higher originally when I got it.

Still apprently games can detect if they are running on the latest native firm or not now? Both pirate pop and the new ACNL update don't boot with a custom firmware.bin. just something to not, since I'm assuming all future games will be like this.

Basehax doesn't work.
You posted this in the basehaxx thread as well, if you bothered to read the most recent page of that thread, you would have seen a link to this tweet by MrNbaYoh, with a new installer for basehaxx that works on 11.1 and 11.2, as well as instructions on how to use it. You need to direct the installer to PokéBank in the homebrew launcher, due to the implementation of PASLR for OR/AS.

Also, people can't really help you if all you say is "doesn't work"; you need to say how and when basehaxx (or anything else) doesn't work. Does it not work when trying to install it, or when trying to run the entrypoint itself? How exactly does it 'not work'? Do you get a red screen? A yellow screen? Try to give details when you have issues in the future.

    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!
