Try not to update. With every update, there is less chance of a specific exploit (unreleased or released later) to possibly work + more chance of timebombs on Nintendo's end

I updated 3 of my consoles today to 10.3 :)

Was it worth it? totally :) why? cause all 3 where on 10.1 and all 3 have only bought games on it that can be played online, and still have access to homebrew through old IronFall with IronHax installed (Updated first the payloads to 10.3 before updating to 10.3)
Is it worth for the badge arcade stuff, Nah, you want miss much, but if you do upgrade, do get it, not for the gameplay, but more for the home screen customize stuff

Ow and yes, you can access eShop again and play online ;)

[EDIT]
ThemuHax/MenuHax and BrowserHax do not work anymore!
The only exploits working on 10.3:
- Cubic Ninja
- Old IronFall
- Zelda OoT (You do need another entrypoint to get it installed or use another homebrew enabled console to write the hax to your OoT game)

Try not to update. With every update, there is less chance of a specific exploit (unreleased or released later) to possibly work + more chance of timebombs on Nintendo's end

So it all depends on yourself if you want to update or not.

Do you want homebrew always and maybe a change in the future to have an exploit that enables custom firmware, stay on 10.1 or lower, But if you want online access and you really don't care about homebrew or say like, it's nice to get hombrew but it isn't really needed for me, you can aswell update your console ;)

Do you have the old version of IronFall on your system? and have you installed IronHax on it? If yes, read on:

How to update your Payloads to 10.3 on your O3DS/N3DS on sysnand 10.1/10.2 and have Hombrew Launcher access already, before upgrading your O3DS/N3DS to sysnand 10.3

Old IronFall Invasion:
- Download latest starter.zip from "The Hombrew Launcher" website
- Put Files on your SD and Remove your old Ironfall "Installer" folder
- Boot your console to the Homebrew Launcher
- Start the new IronFall Hax installer
- Set your saveslot,
- Set your version of ironfall (it nows your version)
- Set the payload it needs to download (System (O3DS or N3DS) Version you should set: 10.3.0-28 and region (USA/EUR/Or whatever system you have)
- Install
- Best reapeat it for the other save slots
- Reboot console and update to 10.3

If you have Cubic Ninja:
Go to the NinjHax site and follow the instructions on that page
Set the QR code to NEW or OLD / 10.3.0-28 E or U, then press Update QR code and scan it in your Cubic Ninja gamecart (works with flashed Cubic Ninja on Sky3DS to)
Once the payload is installed to Cubic Ninja, reboot and update system (Reboot isn't really needed :P )

If you have Zelda OoT:
- Download latest starter.zip from "The Hombrew Launcher" website
- Put Files on your SD (Remove any previous OoT installer)
- Boot your console to the Homebrew Launcher
- Start the new Zelda OoT installer
- Set your saveslot,
- Set your version of Zelda
- Set the payload it needs to download (System (O3DS or N3DS) Version you should set: 10.3.0-28 and region (USA/EUR/Or whatever system you have)
- Install
- Reboot console and update to 10.3

[EDIT]
- You can also us a Datel Powersave / R4i SaveDongle / NDS Homebrew (Only on DSLite / Phat, Not DSi) to write a modifyed save with the 10.3 payloads in it to Zelda OoT reatil gamecart.

oO. Can you develop more about this please ?

I'd like to let you all know there's a little known 3rd option to flashing your oothax save.

Minimum Hardware Needed:
DSlite/phat + DS flashcard.

1. Download DSsavemanager http://3dbrew.org/wiki/DSaveManager
2. Download the save files here https://github.com/yellows8/oot3dha...t3dhax_rawsaveimages_haxpayloads_11-10-15.zip
3. Find your 3ds's save in the raw 'saveimages' folder (refer to the oot3dhax repo readme). If you don't know what card remaster type you have, just grab both.
4. Place the 2 raw .sav files and DSM.nds in your DS flash microSD root.
5. This is the tricky part. You will either need to saw off the nub of the corner of your zelda cart or open it, take out the board, and place it in a ds card shell.
6. Now boot up DSM.nds and select "Restore save(FAT)" Find your save and select it.
7. Replace the DS flashcard with OOT and Press A to write the save. Done! Enjoy your OOT3Dhax. (if the 1st save didn't work, try the second)

I have tested this method and it works.

DS Lite is required due to the DSi and 3DS preventing you from swapping Slot-1 cartridges after you've already booted one.

You didn't lose IronFall hax possibility if you didn't update IronFall to the newest update.

You have to find another way to boot into Homebrew Launcher (Cubic Ninja retail gamecart or on Sky3DS flashed / Already prepped OoT for 10.3 gamecart or on Sky3DS flashed)
Then when using latest starter.zip from smealums HBL site, you can update the IronFall payloads to 10.3

Any other way that's not so pricey I don't even have a job or an allowance :(

    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!
  • 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

    It does that when I edit a post.
