    Hacking Ace3DS Plus hardware flashing methods?

    I opened up my Ace3DS Plus flashcart because I was curious, and two things caught my interest. One is that one of the chips on the PCB is in a SOIC-8 package. The other is what appears to be a JTAG port, with six clearly-labeled pads exposed on the PCB. I get the feeling that at least one of...

    Hacking Luigi's Mansion 3 crashes when starting ScareScraper after updating game to 1.4.0

    I have Luigi's Mansion 3 installed to my emuMMC. I updated the game to 1.4.0 using Match Version with Local Users because I wanted to play co-op, but when the game is about to start, it crashes. Specifically, if you go to 0:08 in this video, you'll see the screen turn dark green for a split...

    Hacking Did a few hacks in the past and don't have a NAND backup—what should I do before going online?

    I haven't used my Switch in a long time, and I'm not sure offhand what firmware it has. But the last time I used it was sometime before the first version of Atmosphère was out. I booted into that first RCM demo payload once or twice, booted into Linux a couple times (among several unsuccessful...

    Homebrew I created a lightweight alternative to sftdlib for drawing text in sf2dlib.

    I didn't like all the overhead that sftdlib requires just to draw text in sf2dlib, so I created my own text drawing "library" that uses simpler bitmap-based fonts. https://github.com/flarn2006/SF2DBmpFont See the readme for more information. Here's a screenshot of the example program:

    Homebrew Would this work to run "backups" using HANS? If not, why wouldn't it?

    First of all, I'm not just asking this because I'm looking for a way to run roms. I have <9.2, so I can use CFW anyway. But I thought of two methods in which it might be possible to run "backups". I noticed that HANS is capable of redirecting both the code and the romfs for a game to the SD...

    Homebrew How can I use sf2dlib for the bottom screen, and that + Caelina (GL) for the top?

    In my graphing calculator program, I'm planning on adding a 3D graphing capability. It's an obvious addition, considering it's a 3DS app after all. I used sf2dlib to draw the graphics. I'm planning on using Caelina, which is basically a port of OpenGL, for the 3D drawing. The bottom screen will...

    Hacking Attempting to exit "applets" in emuNAND freezes system

    I've been having this problem for a while, and I don't know when it started. My sysNAND is 4.2, and my emuNAND is 9.9. This happens both when I load it with Gateway and with rxTools. Basically, any time I open one of the system applets--web browser, friends list, game manuals, etc.--it works...

    Homebrew [Release] Graphing Calculator

    This is a simple graphing calculator that works with RPN equations. (Update: You can also enter equations the normal way by pressing A.) See the readme for instructions. Get the latest version from here: https://github.com/flarn2006/GraphCalc3DS/releases.

    Homebrew Does anyone know why my homebrew won't load in HBLauncher?

    I'm making a graphing calculator app, but for some reason it's not loading in the Homebrew Launcher. It works fine if I open the .3dsx in Citra, and it also works fine if I run it as a CIA. But for some reason, if I try to open it from the Homebrew Launcher (ironhax), the 3DS just freezes with...

    Homebrew Using the 3DS system font in homebrew?

    I think it would be nice if I could display text in a homebrew application using the 3DS's built-in system font. You know, the one that you see in the home menu, and all the system software. That way I could make it actually look like an official 3DS application, and also make use of the various...

    Hardware Anyone else curious about the "PARTNER-CTR" dev equipment? I found the manual.

    I decided to google an FCC ID I found on the back of my 3DS cause I was bored, and I noticed among the documents available about it was the manual for the PARTNER-CTR dev equipment, like the capture/debugging devices. Here's the link: https://fccid.io/document.php?id=1367237

    Homebrew Can I install a CIA that will let me access the homebrew launcher from the home menu?

    I'm surprised I haven't found this, as it seems hard to believe it wouldn't exist. I simply can't possibly imagine how this would not be technically possible. You know how the Homebrew Launcher can be loaded from titles that can be installed as a CIA? Take Ironhax, for example. Ironfall...

    Homebrew Leaked SDK = better homebrew?

    I was just wondering if that leaked SDK from a while back could be useful for making more user-friendly homebrew with a more "official" look to it. For example, right now all of the homebrew uses a fixed-width, non-anti-aliased font for everything, because that's the easiest to program. But...

    ROM Hack Decrypting Flipnote Studio 3D CIA?

    I downloaded Flipnote Studio 3D as a CIA because Club Nintendo was down when I tried to log in. Also because I didn't want to update my emunand to 9.5 (which is required to use the eShop) until this whole banning situation is figured out. I was curious how well (if at all) it would run in 3dmoo...

    Hardware Does anyone know how the "PARTNER-CTR Capture" device works?

    It (among other dev stuff) is described in this thread. It seems like something that connects to the 3DS through an external interface, but there aren't many places where it can connect. There's only two connectors on a 3DS designed to fit a cable of any kind: the charging port and the...

    Homebrew Homebrew that spawns a new background process?

    Would it be possible for a homebrew application to start running some code, like in a separate process or something, and then exit to the Home Menu while that code continues to run in the background? Or maybe even have it install like a daemon, so it starts automatically? I'd like that code to...

    ROM Hack Is there an IDA Pro plugin for .cro files?

    From what I've heard, .CRO is basically the 3DS equivalent of .DLL. (I assume it stands for CTR Relocatable Object.) These can be found in the ROMFS in decrypted ROMs, and I'd like to look at some of them in IDA Pro. But IDA doesn't recognize the format, which doesn't surprise me. Has anyone...

    Homebrew [Release] Fake Brick

    This is admittedly not a very useful homebrew, but I just made it for fun. Basically you can run it on someone's 3DS and it simulates the screen that appears when it's bricked, so you can scare them. :lol: I created this using Steveice10's Homebrew Template...

    Hacking How do you decrypt the emuNAND partition? Is it possible?

    Title says it all. I'd like to be able to look through the data in my NAND. And if it is possible to decrypt it, is it also possible to re-encrypt it with changes so I can use it?
