Is the source code for HzMod available somewhere? I only found what is apparently a very outdated version (github: Bas25/HorizonMod), where the network protocol doesn't quite match what the current version sends.

I don't remember why I pulled it off of Github. Currently it's not open-source, but the network proto has stayed mostly the same. Existing things weren't modified apart from timing differences.

That sounds like you need a frame limiter. HzMod is using too much CPU compared to what the game is using, so it can't keep up, and the game's sound engine also starts to lag, causing the stutter.

Home Menu is extremely slow. In fact, you need to disconnect from HzMod, otherwise you can't open any game.

Also, if sound is bad everywhere then you probably have bad settings. Try enabling HzMod's frame limiter, I think there is an option for that.

How did you not install HzLoad when you installed HzMod.cia? It's in the manual why you need to install both >.<
i only did bootntr oops so im going install all 3 cia HorizonM.cia, HzLoad.cia and Hzload_HIMEM.cia right??

I dont see HzMod.cia in any folder

I have N3DSXL on 11.9.0 firmware
Okay I have installed AutoIT and My lit is bright blue when i move with d direction or circle dirction it blink red and white quick and there is 2 codes in your README.md and am i suppose to do something to snickerstream to involve with AutoIT??? is AutoIT suppose to do the editing on snickerstream??

Yeah, HzMod.cia, HzLoad.cia, and for games like Smash and Mario Maker you need HzLoad_HIMEM, but only on old3DS.

The quick blink is normal, it's there so you know HzMod hasn't crashed..

You don't need to install AutoIT, Snickerstream should work out of the box.

Newer versions only support the top screen. The support for the bottom screen was removed because the old3DS can't handle it. HzMod was designed for old3DS, so it makes sense.

There was a new3DS-only build somewhere, but I don't think the link is valid anymore.

There is a new3DS-only build which can run at almost 60FPS, but is monochrome.

Sadly the picture quality is lowered by the image compression, I can't really do anything about it.

Sorry for double-posting; I'd like to ask a question and people be able to note I asked it.

Does this work with WLAN only or WLAN + Internet? I'd like this program to not waste my mobile data, since I will use my cellphone as a hotspot.

As long as the 3DS connects to the hotspot, it should work. I did use a hotspot a year or so ago, and it did work.

As for streaming via the internet, I'm pretty sure that's possible as long as you do portforwarding.
