What "in-app update feature"? It's showing you Arm11 errors or is it something else?

Can you access Luma3DS menu and GodMode9?
Remove the rehid folder and see if it boots (though it shouldn't happen).

I have a strange problem with rehid 4.0. After updating from 3.0, the C-stick to circle pad part of my mapping for Pokémon Alpha Sapphire doesn't work right. Previously it moved my character around, although it wasn't able to move diagonally or at angles, and also worked in menus but felt very stiff doing so. With 4.0, it moves around in menus much more easily (if anything too easily) but now I can't move my character with it at all.

Here's the config I'm using:

JSON:

{"keys":[
{"press":"ZL","get":"B"},
{"press":"ZR","get":"A"},
{"press":"CSUP","get":"CUP"},
{"press":"CSDOWN","get":"CDOWN"},
{"press":"CSRIGHT","get":"CRIGHT"},
{"press":"CSLEFT","get":"CLEFT"}],
"cpad":[
{"press":"CSUP","get":[0,150]},
{"press":"CSDOWN","get":[0,-150]},
{"press":"CSLEFT","get":[-150,0]},
{"press":"CSRIGHT","get":[150,0]}]
}

It's intended to allow one-handed play with either hand. Left handed I use it with L=A in-game button mode. Right handed I want to use the C-stick as the circle pad -- optimally I'd like it to work as an analog but that doesn't seem possible, but now on 4.0 it just plain doesn't work at all except in menus.

Is there some change I need to make, or is this a bug?

Don't know if it's the problem you have, but I got a similar crash when I updated Luma to 13.x without also updating rehid to the new /Luma/sysmodules cxi/ips-based version that the helper app downloads AND deleting/renaming the old /luma/titles bin-based version. Similarly if I go back to Luma 12.x, I have to delete/rename the cxi and ips files and bring back the bin files or I get a crash.

good evening, please i need help to install rehid i don't know why but it doesn't work on my new 3ds xl with luma v.13 .0.2, yet I followed the instructions I downloaded the file rehid3dsx, I opened it with the homebrew menu and I installed the latest version then I redemarez I created a file with the title ID of super mario 3d land with inside his file rehind.json. and I activated the game patching and load externl firms and mofules in the menu of luma.


SD:\luma\titres\0004013000001D02.cxi


SD:\rehid\0004000000053F00\rehid.json

rehind.json
{"keys":[{"press":"ZR","get":"R"},{"press":"ZL","get":"L"}]}
note that i use a mac to move files from the sd card, and i also tried the cia version of rehid by installing the cia via fbi to see and it still doesn't work.

I'm trying to use the zr key instead of the r key because the r key no longer works.

Kartik, is there a chance of adding support for Circle Pad Pro for the o3DS in a future build? I'm not sure if this is even possible, but it would be great for those of us with older units. Either way, fantastic job!

YukidaruPunch · Apr 16, 2024

I'm having a real hard time changing something that theoretically should be simple. I want to change the D-PAD to act as the Circle Pad in Mario Kart 7, However, I also don't want to lose the possibility to change viewpoints so I can change the camera. However, doing both seems to be madness.

If I change D-PAD to C-PAD on General Options, up on the D-PAD will still change the viewpoint. So It's tough to either steer the glider or throw items up or down since it would constantly change the viewpoint if I tried doing that.
If I change every direction on the D-PAD do the Control Pad using the Control Pad Configuration, I lose the ability to change viewpoints completely. I tried creating button combos (Say, L+R+UP for UP, or L+R+Y for UP) but they never work. I even tried putting the change of viewpoints on the touch screen but that doesn't work either.
It is impossible to simply invert both D-PAD to C-PAD and vice-versa; if you check one, the other becomes automatically unmarked, I'm out of ideas.
For the record, I'm also swapping L for R (and vice-versa) and X for A (and vice-versa) and I wonder if it has something to do with it.

Is there any way to simple change UP and DOWN into C-PAD UP and C-PAD DOWN while also keeping the original UP and DOWN buttons (which serve to change the viewpoint) available? I've tried everything at this point, but everything either enables both at the same time or disables the another altogether. No idea what I should do.

Modular511 · Apr 16, 2024

anyone have a config i can just import for usign c stick instead of touch screen for kid ikarus uprising? Dont wanna make it wrong! EDIT: OK so - I tried and cannot for the life of me figure out how to map the touch screen reticle movement to the c stick, anyone got some advice/help? got it setup and stuffs, and i made a rehid folder at the root of my sd card - and i have the title id for my game as a folder name with the rehid inside of it - thats all right correct?

edit2: It seems I was overthinking shit - I didnt know that ppl switched the controls to abxy for reticle before doing it - I thought they used the touch screen control way and mapped that to the c stick, got it going!

super neat tool! The per game mode is awesome!

This is a really useful utility.
My 2ds has a busted R shoulder button that's always stuck on.
So I remapped it to the ZR button that doesn't exist.
Now I can play MK7 again.
Can a global rehid.json be created rather than on a game-by-game file?
Would make it easier for us button stuck-on users. :rofl2:

Thank-you

It does this. Just go into /rehid on your SD card and rename whatever config you want to use as the global one to rehid.json. If another one exists for the game you're playing, it will ignore rehid.json and use that one instead, so get rid of any title specific ones if you want to make sure it gets used everywhere.

Every time I attempt to install rehid through the helper, it just tells me "Verification failed. Please manually install the app."
How exactly am I supposed to do this? Every piece of info I can find tells me to use the helper(which isn't working) to install it.

scratch this, after noticing that the install worked perfectly fine on my other 3ds and checking for differences between the 2 that could cause the issue, I noticed that luma wasn't up-to-date on the system I had issues with. 1 update later and it now works.

Hi, after an accident I got some problems with my hands and thanks to this I can still play games that otherwise wouldn't be possible. Thank you very much for this. I still have some problems in certain games that makes them inaccessible to me. What would help me a lot it's a way to keep buttons pressed by only "toggling" them until they are pressed again or when another configurable one is pressed. I put a configuration example to explain this better:

{"keys":[{"press":"R","get":"R","heldUntil":"A,R"}]}

So when I press R it's keep pressed until I press R again or if I press A.
I hope I explained it good enough and that someone would help me so that I could play a lot of games that now I can't. Thanks to you for this amazing project that helps me a lot, keep up and I hope a day this feature will also be in.

Seconding this. It could also be helpful in games where you have to hold a button to run, and you want to run most of the time.

Does anyone know what's the proper way to make exchange functions between the dpad and cpad?

@Nutez i was just about to make a thread to share rehid configs
But instead of that, i just post it here like you did.

{
"touch":
[
{"get":[231, 193], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[306, 193], "press":"ZR"},
{"get":[156, 197], "press":"START"}
]
}

This let you search and choose the any item you want when you'r flying with the ODM or even when you are attacking a titan. ZL and ZR works as the arrows on the touchscreen to search trough your bag and you select the item with START

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"LEFT", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"RIGHT", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"UP", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"DOWN", "press":"CSDOWN"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[68, 112], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[258, 112], "press":"ZR"},
{"get":[160, 211], "press":"START"}
]
}

With it, you can control the camera with the C-Stick instead on the D-Pad, so now you can freely web swing without having to stop to move the camera. Also, the Retreat and Dodge touch buttons were remapped to ZL and ZR, and the Take Photo touch button its remapped to START button.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"LEFT", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"RIGHT", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"UP", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"DOWN", "press":"CSDOWN"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[296, 25], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[150, 130], "press":"ZR"}
]
}

Same camera config as Amazing Spider-Man, Time Paradox and Spider-sense touch buttons remapped to ZL and ZR.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"Y", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"A", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"X", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"B", "press":"CSDOWN"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[32, 215], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[75, 215], "press":"ZR"}
]
}

If you choose to control the retina/camera with Y,A,B and X (you can change this on options menu), this buttons are remapped to the C-Stick. ZL and ZR now trigger the Aerial Powers , ZR also trigger any power you choose on Land battles.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"RIGHT", "press":"CRIGHT"},
{"get":"LEFT", "press":"CLEFT"},
{"get":"UP", "press":"CUP"},
{"get":"DOWN", "press":"CDOWN"}
]
}

The game try to emulate old games like PSOne horror games, and you can only move the character using the D-Pad. With this config, you can use the C- Pad for movement.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"LEFT", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"RIGHT", "press":"CSRIGHT"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[261, 151], "press":"START"}
]
}

C-Stick now controls the camera instead of D-Pad, Start triggers the Upgrade Power touch button.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"L", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"R", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"X", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"B", "press":"CSDOWN"}
]
}

Another remap to control the camera with the C-Stick.

{
"touch":
[
{"get":[40, 5], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[286, 8], "press":"ZR"},
{"get":[35, 215], "press":"START"}
]
}

Notepad, Map and Items touch buttons remapped to ZL, ZR and START.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"LEFT", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"RIGHT", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"UP", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"DOWN", "press":"CSDOWN"}
]
}

Yet another remap to control the camera with the C-Stick.

{
"touch":
[
{"get":[236, 209], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[289, 163], "press":"ZR"},
{"get":[160, 126], "press":"START"}
]
}

Control the Arrow touch buttons with ZL and ZR, use your stored power with START.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"L", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"R", "press":"CSLEFT"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[31, 222], "press":"START"},
{"get":[100, 226], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[164, 226], "press":"ZR"}
]
}

Camera control with C-Stick, Bicycle, Radar and Map touch buttons remapped to ZL, ZR and Start.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"Y", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"A", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"X", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"B", "press":"CSDOWN"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[12, 22], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[310, 16], "press":"ZR"},
{"get":[10, 99], "press":"Y"},
{"get":[177, 88], "press":"B"},
{"get":[290, 85], "press":"A"},
{"get":[104, 43], "press":"X"},
{"get":[158, 44], "press":"START"}
]
}

The camera buttons (Y,X,A,B) were remapped to the C-Stick, the EEV Hacking touch button its remapped to ZL, Thermal Vision touch button to ZR, Map touch button to X, Whistle touch button to START, and the 3 main weapon to Y, B and A (Y is the regular pistol, B is the Assault Rifle, you can press B twice to use the 1.5 reflex sight, and A is the grenades).

Here's an alternative remap that, on this remap the weapons are remapped to X,Y and B, the Map touch button is remapped to START button, there's no Whistle remap and the A button its free (to access Rosalina menu and that kind of stuff). I think this is one of the 3DS games that benefits the most of rehid. In my honest opinion, the worst thing about Chaos Theory port on 3DS is not the graphics or the loading times (you can mitigate that using the New 3DS clock speed), its the horrible control scheme.

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"Y", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"A", "press":"CSRIGHT"},
{"get":"X", "press":"CSUP"},
{"get":"B", "press":"CSDOWN"}
],
"touch":
[
{"get":[12, 22], "press":"ZL"},
{"get":[310, 16], "press":"ZR"},
{"get":[10, 99], "press":"X"},
{"get":[177, 88], "press":"Y"},
{"get":[290, 85], "press":"B"},
{"get":[104, 43], "press":"START"}
]
}

{
"keys":
[
{"get":"L", "press":"CSLEFT"},
{"get":"R", "press":"CSRIGHT"}
]
}

Simple camera remap. (L/R remapped to C-Nub)

You can now control the character movement with D-Pad. (and also the C-Pad as default)
In some of game areas you need tighter controls and (in my opinion ) the D-Pad does a better job than the C-Pad (but still i like to use the C-Pad). The downside is that now you can only use the bag items with the touchscreen. (normally, you can use the touchscreen or the D-Pad)

I saw that you posted a dragon quest 7 rehid file... I was wondering if you had one for dragon quest 8 that uses the c nub for camera instead of d pad?

I know the game supports it, but when I run the restoration project plugin it no longer works (must have been made using an older 3ds without the nub). I was hoping to re add it in with this.
