When 11.9 comes out, will a thread like this be created to tell us if it's safe to update? My worst fear is that something will eventually brick my 3DS.

That a thread would be created is a sure thing, but no firmware update can brick your console.

Ahh. So then what could brick your console if a new update came out? Like, updating some other cfw? Because I've seen YT videos that say stuff like, "11.8 Released: Safe to Update?" So I was wondering. I'm currently on the latest system version if it matters.

Nothing. Boot9Strap is a hardware exploit.

The videos' titles are just to make people worry and click on the video.

you can follow the 3ds.hacks.guide regularly, install CakesFW instead of Luma3DS. As mentioned above, you need the latest native firm 11.8 for CakesFW to work.

use the guide (3ds.hacks.guide) and use the custom firmware "Luma3DS"
This is beginner friendly and runs on the original firmware 11.8.

The custom firmware "CakesFW" is more advanced and needs a "native_firm" so that it can be started.
This custom firmware is therefore not recommended for beginners.

could I use basehax on 11.8?
I think I've seen some people mention that, but I haven't tried it myself. It uses the same otherapp.bin that a lot of other exploits use; it's just a question of whether the updater is working.

If you are already using basehax on 11.7 then it will almost certainly keep working if you update to 11.8.

    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why does the health behavior exist if you can just use a variable?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
