So i ran the homebrew and it just blank screens and the only way to exit it is by powering down

Apparently it doesn't work every time. It took me about 5 times for it to work, but I only had that "s" file output so something went wrong.

So every single time i try to launch the bootstrap it just goes black, this is what is in my folder, am i doing something wrong?

If you're asking what the setup looks like when it's working, here mine.
I put the decrypt9.3dx file in a folder and launched it from HomeBrew.

Right side is what's on the N3DS's internal SD card, left side is an example of the xorpad files it will make on the root of the SD Card. (depending on what option you are using)

This is from my N3DS running 9.0.0-20U, HomeBrew launched from CN Ninjhax

how did you get the CTR-P-BSTE.bin file on their?

The left side is just showing the PC directory where I FTP'ed the xorpad files from my 3DS for safe keeping.
You can ignore those.

I included it in the photo so you could see that it really does actually work on a N3DS and will create xorpads files.

All you need on the 3DS is a directory named 3ds and the current decrypt9.3dx file in a folder in it.

Maybe try re-downloading the posted below link decrypt9.3dx file to make sure you have the latest one?

(Correction, I'm using this one)

im guessing with Ctr key gen?

so all you really need to do is put the launch the homebrew and have the ncchinfo.bin and CTR file on the root of your sd card to run the xorpad generation?

You only need to create the ncchinfo.bin on your PC (one for each game), put it on the root of the SD card and run decrypt9.3dx to generate the xopads for that game.

But first you have to get decrypt9.3dx to load on your 3DS.... sounds like you are not there yet.

yes i am still in the process of getting decrypt9 to run, so far it is just blackscreening, but will keep trying

 

[Datalogger]

I added a photo of the 3DS screen to my post above so you will know what to expect to see when it launches.
Keep trying, it should launch.
(Maybe try a different SD card?)

 

[KashiToxicBlood]

currently this is the only sd card that i have until later this weekend but will keep trying, i took a break for a few hours but will start again

I just attempted to do this for Cubic Ninja and decrypt9 said it succeeded, however the only new file on my SD card is a 5,120 KB file named "s". I have done this many times on my O3DS without any issue so I know this isn't how it's suppose to work. Any ideas why?

You are using an outdated python script. Use the newer ncchinfo_gen.py provided with rxTools/Decrypt9. If the one from Decrypt9 didn't work, the dev included the wrong one. Get the one provided with rxTools.

The file name encoding was changed from unicode to standard for the newer script so later versions of Decrypt9 and rxTools expects the new filename format inside the generated ncchinfo.bin file. If you feed it a bin file still using unicode file names, you get the resulting bug with the "s" file being the only file it generated.

can we have links to the latest downloads? that would be very helpful

Just go to the 3DS Homebrew section of the forum and go to the first post of the rxTools thread. It's not that hard to find.

I have the updated downloads but it still black screens me, should i try a different sd card???

Thanks, this is probably my problem. I have been using the python script for the old decrypt for 4.x.

Blackscreen is not related to the ncchinfo.bin file. My response was to a different issue.
