There's always SigHax + hardmod/DSiWareHax.
That's true but patience costs less than a hardmod. :P If (by the grace of the hacking gods) another K11 exploit comes along in the months to come they won't need a hardmod to install SigHax.

Nonetheless, your point is still a very good one because it's pretty much guaranteed as mine is not. ;)

I got Zelda Four Swords when they were giving it away free. So the DSiWareHax I used on 11.0 was free too. I don't think they'll ever give that away for free now. At least not on the 2/3DS.

They won't be giving it away and they took it of the eShop last year, so you can't buy it either. But you can download a copy and inject it into a legit DSiWare game downloaded from the eShop.

I'm about three versions behind. If I update to the newest system menu, am I going to lose the hacks I already have? I want to update Pokemon Moon, but not if I lose my hacks.
Is there a way to spoof the update through the homebrew launcher? I asked before but couldn't get a satisfactory answer....

If you have CFW you lose nothing by updating.

This post lies. Just updated to 11.4 and now Steelhax no longer works. video must be fake. Thanks troll. :angry: (I'm using N3DS)

Edit: after reviewing the video further, that's not even what the real steelhax menu looks like. FAKE

Just install the homebrew launcher cia, you don't need steelhax. I assume since you updated, you installed CFW while you were on a lower version?

I still have Ninjhax available. It's just annoying having to scan all those QR codes every update. With Steelhax I don't have to juggle game cards either.

I'm gonna ask a noob question. I have an O3DS XL and an O3DS both with CFW on 11.3. I have updated to nightly of everything I can and updated to latest of the rest, Luma and all from the guide. Is it safe to update to 11.4 and keep my CFW and if so do I need to do the 11.2 payload trick to keep my homebrew non userland/cia installer, or should I not update?

Yes. Updating or not is up to you. SigHax/B9S is out now.

  • 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)
  • 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

    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

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
