Going back to my old 3ds, everything is a mess, I have no idea where my old sd card is (It wasn't inside the 3ds for some reason) and now I have to set it up from scratch, I didn't want to lose my saves so I need to boot the gateway thing to decrypt them but since I lost my sdcard I need the files for the gateway set up. I know how to do the save thing(https://gbatemp.net/threads/importi...cYKBwrSk9l06NnINP9yAbK0tLaU73oai79QCdcXX-CQo4) and I think my best bet is to set up a luma and use the gateway inside(https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-using-luma3ds-gateway-on-b9s.431691/), but again need the files for the 4.0. Does anyone have any idea where to get them?

You don't need the flashcard, as Luma3DS can *pirate* (you filthy pirate - don't steal!) stuff without a flashcard and it is far more space efficient than the flashcard.

We've had this discussion, gateway and luma are both cfw, they both do the same exact thing

How is it more space efficient?

With a flash card I have another sd slot, I can have 256GB of storage in the card, and another 256GB in the 3ds, and have half a terabyte, so the card is more "space" efficient, it's a physical expansion to the 3ds hardware

99% of people using gateway know about luma3ds, my newdsxl boots both luma and gateway

why does it matter what one uses to pirate software and run homebrew, its all the same

Gateway is no longer supported, it can't be used on the latest 3DS system versions, and you can't play online with .3ds backups without legitimate headers. Migrating to Luma3DS is highly recommended. Almost no one uses Gateway anymore, and for good reason.

its no longer officially supported, doesn't mean it can't have "3rd party" support from people who own one

if you can run luma3ds, or have b9s or fastboot3ds, you can run gateway on any system menu version (using patched emunand), to go online you just need one 3ds cart, i used luigi's mansion, and you can use that header for all of your roms, or just install the cia

im not saying luma3ds is bad or it sucks, some people like to have options, i run both luma3ds and gateway on my n3dsxl on 11.14 and both work fine, if anything gateway is more stable(compatible) when it comes to homebrew, less crashes and other issues , haven't been banned (i don't cheat online) , nor have i encountered any brick, i can't say for certain but i also heard that they did remove the brick code in later versions, i don't have a fake card to test this...

Please stick to the topic at hand. OP wants to setup Gateway so they can recover their saves, what they do afterwards is a completely different topic.

I realise that the files can't be linked on GBAtemp, but hopefully enough guidance can be given to recover the saves.

I found the files thanks everyone, but if anyone here is good at this save conversion thing pm me (does gba temp has pm? if not answer me here, because good lord this stuff never works as intended and I'm confused with some errors)

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

btw if anybody wants I have the 4.something gateway ( the 3.7 was their last "stable" release, they made some extra betas afterwards)

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous
    +3
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol
    +3
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted
    +2
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves

    because self deprecating humor is important, as long as it doesn't turn into self hate. because you can't really make fun of anyone if you can't even make fun of yourself
