Good for you. The fact of the matter is that those with the skills to make a CFW are antipiracy. You guys are the first who take that stance and are willing to make your work public. Pro-piracy folk are just going the have to deal with that fact.

Those looking for a free ROM loader are going to have to find someone who shares their point of view and has both the skill and the willingness to make it public. But, it seems that such a person doesn't exist right now.


Precisely. You said it; there's already numerous other ways to load pirate games. So why do these guys need to provide another?

They don't have to provide another, and that's their choice. My point being that they're not exactly preventing piracy either, they're just forcing other people to go other routes. IMO, the point of all of this really SHOULD be to get the system as open as it can be...not enabling rom loading, to some extent is shooting themselves in the foot, as it's certainly possible for homebrew to use the same sorts of mechanisms as roms do to be loaded.

Came back on this thread and wow, no CIA support, I'm not upset, but would this limit homebrew? If it doesn't, how would using KARL3DS speed up homebrew, and would certain emulators hopefully have sound support, speed etc. using KARL3DS?

And this is exactly the point I was sorta beating around the bush to get at. There's already a pretty significant amount of homebrew that already exists in CIA format.

Could it at the very least be released as just an Emunand and not a CFW? I don't really care about CIA's on 9.2, i'd just like to be able to update to 9.5 and play my Smash Bros cart online (assuming it uses the right encryption key unlike MT's Launcher)

wonderful, even though it is through the ds mode exploit, so i guess he is on 4.x, still very cool
i'm guessing devmenu is already installed (through gw or something, probably used to create emunand also), the cool end goal here is that he made devmenu run without gw :) nice

I don't think it's really an end goal, or a goal at all. Being able to run DevMenu/install CIA files isn't on the feature list for this project, so that video seems more just for showing the fact of NAND redirection and FIRM patching working as a proof of concept.

sure, i just mean, the 'result' for users of what is being shown in the video. of course how it is done is the main part, but for users like 'us', we just want the end result, so, the use of devmenu without gw :) i understand what you mean

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We are not Nintendo, so we don't know exactly how/why/when they ban, but better to stay on the safe side and not do shady stuff, if you don't want to be banned. Hayato is one of the most knowledgeable ones here on the subject and I believe what he says.

    300 bucks hmmm lol
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Yes ofc we don't know how Nintendo bans work, but if there are situations where a lot of people have tried safely then we can at least assume that this path is pretty much safe. To say don't try anything homebrew relative just to be safe forever is the easiest thing to say to someone. What I am trying to figure out here is with which cases and what actions got most of the people their bans for.
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Most things I can find resulting to a ban is save-editing reasons, like Pokehex, etc, and going online afterwards.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm almost certain fucking Google fibers modems blocking out PPPoE signals

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Like the 6th time I had to reboot this router trying to get PPPoE active
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Ken, your hamster inside it is hungry. Can't you turn POE on/off in your WiFi settings page? Or is it not staying on?

  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Well, in that thread they say it's pretty much safe to manage save files back and forth to consoles as long as you don't go online with cheats activated or with a pirate game.
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    I own every of my games legit with their own cartridges
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    also, I'm not planning to use any cheats, etc, just continue the normal gameplay on the emulator
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It only gives a internet settings option then it spazes out

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @ATEMVEGETA if you use save from other switch you may be ok, but using a save from emulator to switch will prob get you banned
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Under ipv4/6
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    The save file will be created and started normally on the Switch's OFW with a legit game. Then that save file will be transfered to the emulator and continue the gameplay there. Then send it back to the console.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I feel like I need to touch @Sicklyboy rack to make it work at this point
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    The save file(s) would never be created first in an emulator
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Do you think continuing the story on the emulator would flag the save file as illegal? (Again no cheats, etc will take place, only normal story of the game progress)
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But still using the save on a emulator, then back to switch is shady

  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Yea, that's the only thing I want to clarify actually. If someone has tried it with no problems.
     +1
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    If using the save on the emulator flags the save file. :/
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Again, "using" I mean normal gameplay not modify it with other means like pokehex, etc
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Can you help me clarify this thing somehow? Do you know someone that may know or have tried it?
