Homebrew What's your reason for wanting arm9/arm11 control?

[froggestspirit]

So my friend can be a pirate. I tell him how cool 3DS CFW is, but he's stuck on that 9.9 island.

 

[mbcrazed]

I presume you mean the installation of official games as .cia files, considering that the use of the Sky3DS is basically a form of piracy in it's own right (not that I'm saying you shouldn't use the Sky3DS)

I meant there's not really a reason to pirate anymore because I have a Sky3DS. I can convert those .3ds's to .cia's though!

Just want to make Smash hacks without having to burn inane amounts of money on a Wii U or a N3DS or, worse, just go back to Brawl. :\

Since it has to boot into safe mode for the 3ds, that may not be accessible without kernel. I also installed menuhax on 10.1, and it crashes when i hit the home button, so i have to hit the power button to close it to go back to the home menu. Im pretty sure this is because it boots the console into safe mode.

Update menuhax, that was fixed.

- Emunand to be able to stay at a frimware level where menuhax is possible while still having the latest update to be able to access the pokebank again...
- Spite Nintendo for preventing me from accessing a service I paid for (still have 2-3 month left) because of my firmware level...(9.9 instead of 10.3)
- The ability to download CIA is just a bonus...I don't have much faith in the files from that iso site...they seem full of viruses/spywares...and I think i'll keep buying cartridge games for the safety of my laptop...

none of the files from there are executable, how on earth would you get a virus???

shifty things are always viruses according to the uneducated 80% of the internet

Some people are new to stuff like adfly and such, and end up getting their computer full of spyware since they think the ad is the thing that they were downloading. Happened to my cousin with minecraft mods. People also expect convenience so much these days its really annoying, especially when you want to help them do something, so I feel like a large part of that is because download something 'shifty' isn't the most convenient thing, and some people just think its not worth the time to do the 'dirty work' involved.

Someone told me you could get a virus from running a ROM in an emulator... Needless to say I called his bluff

 

[Shadicluigi]

Argh.

 

[TimX24968B]

any uneducated internet user thinks if a site is full of cheap ads or cheap pop-up ads or clickbait, everything you download from it is a virus.

 

[zac122]

to be fair that iso site is a lot more shifty than a few other sites I've used though.

on topic I want kernel access mostly for piracy. specifically in the form of emulation, but i'd certainly be installing some 3ds games as well. not gonna lie, i'm just too poor to buy every game I want.

Edit: I will say this though; nearly every game I've pirated AND liked I buy later. for me emulating and piracy in general is more like a demo than just free games(with a few cases excepted naturally.)

If any site is sketchy it's brawlcustommusic. I can even access it without like five antivirus protection things coming up
I just want my bcstm files.
