A free alternative to Action Replay cheating devices for Nintendo DS games, Nitrohax, has been released in CIA format to work on the Nintendo 3DS. Download below, and this video made by @Apache Thunder and recorded by @Sasori will show it off!

​

Also:

Don't forget, that you currently need dev Luma3DS 6.0 or newer CFW and patched TwlBg.cxi before you can use this. So if you get the fat init failed error you don't patched dev launcher yet. More on that here:

and a guide to use it here https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-use-twl_firm_patcher.438703

[PRAGMA]

Its basically an ActionReply as a .cia - Cheat Engine

It's an Action Replay alternative. It lets you use cheats on your DS Carts.

Dev version has sysmodule support normal one doesnt - The sysmodule is the cxi which is required to Boot the Legit Game

You need to install python 2.7 (Not 3), While installing 2.7 make sure when at the Functions to Install section scroll down and add Python to the Path (Click the X and click Full Install), Restart your PC (Must) and then it should work

You still need Devkit Pro

What would cause a black screen when launching any TWL title?

 

[PRAGMA]

The following is only for 6.0.1 (Dev).
The MD5 hash of the n3DS cxi is: 82dd92063c28cbb3fb3c975b6c3aa96f
The file size of it is: "(1,292,800 bytes)" or "1,294,336 bytes"


If its smaller most likely its corrupt - Most likely the MD5 hash will be different so take it with a grain of salt.
@shutterbug2000 Please add this to the OP.

pokemon black 2 EU won't boot

This is because it needs the newer AR firmware, you can download it from the Codejunkies website. Nitro even tells you this. THough I cannot find out how to get Nitro to load this.

Could someone help me figure this out? I have the file downloaded and on my SD card but nothing :|

Do you have Python in System Environment Variable Path?

The file you have downloaded I hope you mean the .cxi and not a .nds lmao - Nitro isnt a NDS rom loader at all.
I also dont recommend downloading the .nds from online use Decrypt9WIP and click Dump Cart Full as it will show you the full gameID that you can use in the cheat list and it will be an exact dump to the region of your game card itself so that it confirms nothing will go wrong.

Um, this is not at all what I am talking about KEK

"Newer" DS Games dont boot from Nitro because it needs a newer firm. (Cart or not, though not like you could get it without the cart)



(Sorry the only two games I have on hand, one doest start and one doesnt have any cheats available)
