Hacking [Release] rxTools - Roxas75 3DS Toolkit [fw 2.0 - 9.2]

[nastys]

The newest nightly builds work with Ninjhax 1.X?

Yes!

I am aware 2.X is not compatible yet due to insufficient privileges (kernel exploit).
If there is ever a Kernel exploit for 9.0-9.9, will there be a compatible .3DSX for homebrew 2.X?
Pasta/rxTools is the only thing so far that is keeping me from updating the HBL to 2.0

I believe so.

Or you can use shodokuhax or a f'd flash cart via mset

I can try later.

I think my 4 core machine does it in about 40 sec

Edit:
"The beast" takes 14 sec.

[nastys]

This is my first test build.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i3502su25zxginx/AAD6qoGclWvJlYvX6hfs70k_a?dl=0

The script has compiled, zipped and uploaded to Dropbox. Some more stuff is coming. As I said, only test. Will build every hour if the repo has changed.

I'm not done yet, ok?

Edit,
Updated zip, new structure.. hm

There's something wrong with the structure...

 

[WhoAmI?]

I made a new PDF file that explains crearly where to put the files. Please use the following structure in the next nightly builds if you want to include it:

*.zip:

IMPORTANT.pdf
To-SD-Card/

rxTools.dat.README.txt
<everything that is in the release folder>​

Added to my build script

Just playing around. It will be as on GitHub. Easier when they change, add or remove any file.

Care to pm me your script?

Great. Thanks. Same commands for git in Linux so I can steal some stuff if I need it. ;-)

Yep. I wrote a Linux script, too but it's on my other computer. I even know how to merge a Linux script as well as a Windows one, into one file

He also made a bash script:

@WhoAmI? , would you mind if I updated it a bit?

EDIT: nvm, I'll just wait until you merge them

You can still update it if you want to. I'll just take those modifications and merge it with my future script

[Xelnok]

I've been away from the 3ds scene for a few months. I have rxtools 2.4 on my 3ds, (the website link I used to use isn't working anymore).

What all do I need to get rxtools working to update the emunand firmware? Is there a different website link the loads the firmware or is there a different way to access it now?

Thanks.

EDIT: script updated.
I almost forgot to say that it's better to start the script with these two files in the same folder:

EDIT2: script updated again.

EDIT3&4: updated IMPORTANT.txt.

EDIT5: script updated again.

EDIT6: new version, with @Orkna's improvements

EDIT7: fixed レイシュカク

EDIT8: added Where do I put firmware.bin?.txt

EDIT9: path updated (rxTools/system → rxTools/sys) and added IT DOESN'T WORK!!!11!!!1!.txt

 

[Orkna]

I have updated mine. I like to keep the folder names and structure direct as cloned from git.

I will build every hour IF the repo has changed within the latest hour.

Why move everything to SD when you only need the rxTools-folder?

 

[kontrolaltdelete]

I am way over my head here what with all you guys compiling the nightlies, but I'd like to install a somewhat solid nightly build here. Even though I'm the elephant in the room here, is there such a thing right now? I have a N3DS on 9.0 and want to try this out.

Good point. I'll restore its original name (to-SD-card → release)
The structure inside that folder is the same, except that there is rxTools.dat.README.txt.

EDIT: script updated.

 

[mocalacace]

I am running firmware 4.5 Sysnand and am having trouble booting. I have the mset (not DG) exploit installed and I have very low success booting rxTools. 90% of the time I just get white screen or the topscreen freezes with the clock in the top right. The other 10% of the time I can load into rxtools and boot emunand. I thought this was supposed to have better boot success than the old palantine cfw?

 

[Orkna]

This has the latest build:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i3502su25zxginx/AAD6qoGclWvJlYvX6hfs70k_a?dl=0

Works great now when I have updated ImageMagick.
