Hacking [WIP] open source Kernel access on 3DS

[D-Rex]

Warning: if you are an angry dev trying to pick up a fight, skip this message.

I just want to thank you all for your effort! I don't care if there will be warez on this or that. The truth is, you all rock!
I'm a poor guy, and I'm still pretty happy with the 4.x CFW. Man! My kids will spend the whole year trying to finish those games! I don't even care if they spend more time trying to boot it then playing. They are happy! I mean, they can't play Heropants, but luckly there will be a 7.x version by christmas... (#WishList).
My point is... let's all put our differences behind, get together and have a drink! (unless you're underage, of course)
Thanks!

OSKA
* Bootstrap doesn't work.
* emuNAND is currently under the development.
* The license has a problem.

hmmm. Can you tell me what problem plz ? If you want

OSKA forked KARL3DS bootstrap when they don't have any license. So they can say "We don't want you to use our code!"

OSKA forked bootstrap of KARL3DS when they don't have license. But current OSKA has GPLv3 license and current KARL has BSD license. The fact can confuse.
And OSKA bootstrap won't work yet.
I suggest to stop the development of OSKA bootstrap and use KARL bootstrap to avoid confusing.

Whichever makes development more efficient imo. Very little reason to recreate what already exists and can be used. And keeping all the licensing in line is a nice plus.

At the end will we need cubic ninja (on n3ds) because I don't want to waste 30 €

Like or opinion.

EDIT: I stopped OSKA bootstrap development and started KARL bootstrap development.

Aliak liked this post, so OSKA bootstrap development is stopped.

 

[Blindspot.]

Would this work on 9.5?

You can explain in few words, how this affect for the future?

Thanks!

 

[reprep]

It is better to join forces imho. But please open-source it as much as you can. This will benefit all current and future users.

All developers who is working on bootstrap will work on the same project.

As long as a firmlaunchax method with 100% of success rate comes out, i'll be happy

 

[Nollog]

no

no

no

no

it will not work on 9.5, 9.4, 9.3 etc.

you need 9.2 or under


also, lol freebsd licence...
GPL is much less annoying.

Can you give me the source code of rxTools if I did that?
Anyway, I'll continue to work...

This isn't properly a fair trade

IIRC, KARL has firmlaunchax booting ~90% of the time. I could be mistaken, though. In any case, it's definitely possible with the right amount of time and effort. Either open sourcing the cfw side of rxTools, or at least sharing it with a trusted dev might speed up the development process.

I know that there are so many problems. I'm fixing them...

 

[marksteele]

soooooo development on OSKA has stopped, or just the parts that are already open source on KARL?

also how can there be a licence issue for open source software, that defeats the point of open source in the first place.

Just the KARL opensourced part...

Ah ok that's cool, I was a bit confused as to what was happening between the 2 projects lol

 

[tony_2018]

So now its no longer a KARL vs OSKA...
