I did zip my rawnand.bin and put it on google drive but I still have it on my laptop. I tried to copy it off to a spare sdxc and I got the message that it cannot be copied without loosing properties. This card is the same brand and size as the original. I should be able to copy it intact, right? What do I use to copy it off my laptop and onto the spare?

SDXC cards are both formatted as exfat and WIN10 is up to date. This has been reported as an issue on old builds of WIN10 but mine is up to date. Maybe I should just dump the nand again?

Usually I try and wait to hear other’s input first before I update. Who knows if you’ll be able to Homebrew or not after if you DO update? I don’t take those risks.
I was referring to his question... I would never just update until I know for sure it's working. That's just dumb

Thinking maybe I should repost instead of editing my previous post?

So I came up with an idea for someone to make a PCB that instead of having mounting balls bracket for an EMMC NAND it will have the balls that will fit a chip that is more commonly found in iPhones and ipads. This will let us use larger capacity that are not yet found in emmc and MicroSD. Just a thought Idk how hard it would be to pull off.

I hope somebody can help me. I was using Atmosphere and ChoiDujour to update to 7.0.1 and updated Atmosphere to 0.8.5. It booted at first but all my software was corrupted. Figured it was an exFAT issue (my SD card is exFAT) so I reinstalled the 7.0.1 with exFAT support. Tried to reboot and now I constantly get stuck at the Nintendo logo. Same problem if I try to boot into latest ReiNX. Have tried copying the Kosmos files again and using different payloads but it just keeps going black after the Nintendo logo. I tried deleting the /sept files as per the Atmosphere 0.8.4 release notes to no avail.

Anybody have any ideas?

I DO have a NAND backup of my OFW but I'd rather not go all the way back to square one.

i had read on the reinx page that you must erase the reinx.bin from the sd root in order to boot, maybe its that.

I can't get Pokemon AshGray to run on both MGBA and VBA-Next cores on Retroarch. It loads the game but then just crashes to black. Any fix for this? It works on any emulator on PC.

So still no sort of "easy" homebrew access option yet? I only want to hack talismans in Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, nothing more. CFW does not interest me.
Its about as easy as PegaSwitch. But that is only usable on firmwares 3.0 and below. Plus, since Fusee Gelee is a much better exploit both in terms of setup and power, no one uses PegaSwitch.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
