3DS:Error screens/Luma3DS exception screen

2023-04-01T14:39:31Z

Cybelyrium: added fix for prefetch abort (svcBreak) at Arm9 for movable.sed 288 bytes

{{shortcut|3DS:EXC}}
This page lists possible causes and fixes of Luma3DS exception screens. They are not applicable to every situation, but cover most common known issues.
==Reading a Luma3DS exception screen==
A Luma3DS exception has four (or five, in a few cases) different parts to it that help in finding its cause, as follows:
[[File:Luma3DS_exception.png|center]]
* '''Processor:''' What part of the system is causing the exception. The two processors are:
**'''Arm9:''' The 'security processor' of the system. These exceptions usually result from errors in NAND data or hardware faults in either the 3DS or its SD card.
**'''Arm11:''' The 'userland' of the system. These exceptions have numerous causes but are often related to broken software or user data.
* '''Exception type:''' How the system is causing the exception. These categories are often too broad to be helpful, but three of them are more precise:
**'''data abort''': Oftentimes related to a broken mod or broken HOME Menu data. Occasionally related to custom firmware data being broken.
**'''prefetch abort (svcBreak)''': Oftentimes an issue with data on the NAND, even when Arm11. Can also happen when launching an out-of-region game.
**'''undefined instruction''': Usually either a broken piece of software (if not on boot) or outdated <code>boot.firm</code> (if on boot).
*'''Fault status:''' Why the system is causing the exception. Normally not helpful except for developers.
*'''Current process:''' Where the error is coming from in the system. Often the most helpful part of the exception. Some examples of processes are as follows:
**'''fs''': The filesystem, i.e. either the SD card or the NAND.
**'''menu''': Data that is opened either as a part of the HOME Menu or at the same time as it.
**'''loader''': The service that opens apps, meaning the app you last tried to open has an issue.
**'''nwm''': Networking services, almost always WiFi.
*'''R0''': Usually just internal data that's not worth reading. There are two notable exceptions, however:
**'''Arm11 loader exception''': If R0's contents start with a C or D, R0 is an error code. This code usually gives the exact cause of the issue.
**'''Arm11 pm exception''': If R0's contents are <code>E0E01BF5</code>, <code>boot.firm</code> is guaranteed to be too outdated to work.

==Known Errors==
In the following lists, the file prefixes on file paths refer to the starting location. <code>sdmc:/</code> refers to the SD card, and numbers in the format of <code>[X:]</code> refer to GodMode9's drive numbers.

3DS:DS games

2022-09-04T19:24:17Z

Cybelyrium: created the page

The 3DS can run Nintendo DS games natively by simply inserting the cartridge on the slot, but, alternatively, if you don't want to carry your cartridges around, you can use a [[3DS:Dump titles and game cartridges|dump]] from your Nintendo DS cartridge to run your game from the SD card.

= What You Need =
* The latest version of [https://github.com/Universal-Team/Universal-Updater Universal Updater].
* A [[3DS:Dump titles and game cartridges|dump]] from your Nintendo DS cartridge.

= Instructions =
== Forwarders ==
Forwarders are shortcuts for games that you can install to your HOME Menu. You can load DS games from the SD card or from a compatible flashcard.

# Open Universal Updater from your HOME Menu.
# Search for '''NDSForwarder Package''', then press {{B|A}} over it's icon to install it.
#*If you have to choose between a Nightly and Stable version, choose the Stable version.
# Wait for the download to complete.
# Close Universal Updater.
# Open the Homebrew Launcher.
# In the Homebrew Launcher, open '''NDS Forwarder Generator'''.
# Navigate to your game's folder and press {{B|A}}.
# Confirm you wish to install by selecting '''Yes'''.
{{success|You have successfully set up your forwarder!}}

== TwilightMenu++ ==
TWiLight Menu++ is an open-source DSi Menu upgrade/replacement for the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo DS flashcards. It allows you to have multiple save files and have a menu to choose your games from.

# Open Universal Updater from your HOME Menu.
# Search for '''TwilightMenu++''', then press {{B|A}} over it's icon to install it.
#*If you have to choose between a Nightly and Stable version, choose the Stable version.
# Wait for the download to complete.
# Close Universal Updater.
{{success|You have successfully set up TwilightMenu++! You can now navigate to your game's folder in the app and play.}}

3DS:Game plugins/NTR

2022-08-09T19:58:55Z

Cybelyrium: fixed a typo

{{Page WIP}}

NTR is a generally outdated plugin loader. However, it is still neccesary to load older plugins in the .plg format. The only way to load NTR on modern CFW setups is using BootNTRSelector

== Installing BootNTRSelector ==

=== Using [[3DS:Universal Updater|Universal Updater]] ===

==== What you need ====

* [[3DS:Universal Updater|Universal Updater]]

==== Installation ====

# Search for <code>BootNTRSelector</code> in Universal Updater
#* Get <code>BootNTRSelector.cia</code> if you are on a New 3DS or if you are on an old 3DS and want to use plugins with non-extended memory games
#* Get <code>BootNTRSelector_Mode3.cia</code> only if you are on old 3DS and want to use plugins with extennded memory games
# Search for <code>Luma3DS [Nanquitas]</code> in Universal Updater, and download the <code>boot.firm</code> file
# Reboot your system
# In the Luma configuration screen, select any options you need, then press START
#* Hint: If you don't know what the options are, you don't need any

=== Manually ===

==== What you need ====

* [https://github.com/Nanquitas/BootNTR/releases BootNTRSelector]
** Get <code>BootNTRSelector.cia</code> if you are on a New 3DS or if you are on an old 3DS and want to use plugins with non-extended memory games
** Get <code>BootNTRSelector_Mode3.cia</code> only if you are on old 3DS and want to use plugins with extennded memory games
** Note that you can also get BootNTRSelector by searching for it in [[3DS:Universal Updater|Universal Updater]]
* [https://github.com/Nanquitas/Luma3DS/releases The 3GX loader fork of Luma3DS]
** Note that the 3GX loader fork of Luma3DS is also available on Universal Updater under the name <code>Luma3DS [Nanquitas]</code>

==== Installation ====

* Copy the BootNTRSelector .cia file to your SD card
** You may skip this if you use Universal Updater to install BootNTRSelector
* Copy the <code>boot.firm</code> from the 3GX loader fork of Luma to the root of the SD card, replacing the <code>boot.firm</code> already there
** You may skip this if you use Universal Updater to install Luma3DS [Nanquitas]
* Insert the SD card into your system and power it on
* On the Luma Configuration screen, enable any options that you need, then press Start
** Hint: If you don't know what the options are, you don't need them
* Install the BootNTRSelector .cia file using FBI

== Using NTR ==

=== Plugin location ===
NTR will look for plugins in the <code>plugin</code> folder on the root of your SD card. Each plugin must be inside a folder named with a game's [[3DS:Title ID|Title ID]]. Inside the folder, put your .plg file

For example, the path may look like <code>plugin</code> -> <code>00040000001B5000</code> -> <code>plugin.plg</code>

=== Launching NTR ===

# Open the BootNTRSelector app on your home menu
# Select 3.6 on the version selection screen
#* Even if the plugin you are using says that it requires another version, try using 3.6 instead. Only use another version if 3.6 will not work
# Launch a game that you have a plugin for. You should see a green flash upon loading the game - that means that the plugin is active
# Look at the information on the plugin's specific page for usage instructions - usage will differ per plugin

=== Usage notes ===

* You cannot play more than one game with NTR without rebooting the system - when you are done playing a game, power off the system
* You must launch NTR every time you wish to use a plugin
* Certain applets, such as the New 3DS's internet browser, may crash if you try to open them while NTR is active

Hacks Guide Wiki:To-do list

2022-08-06T22:00:15Z

Cybelyrium: /* 3DS */

This is where we can keep a list of things that should be done, such as pages that need creating or adding to.

{{ombox|text=For organizational purposes, please mark items based on their status (and link them if applicable):
* {{Done}} <code>{{tl|Done}}</code>
* {{WIP}} <code>{{tl|WIP}}</code>
* {{Skip}} <code>{{tl|Skip}}</code>}}

== Pages ==

=== Organization ===

Once this wiki has "enough content" (whatever that means), before we can start advertising it publicly, we need better page organzation.

* Index/contents pages? Generally anything someone might want or need to do with hacks. Save backup and restore, transfers, troubleshooting, informational pages, etc. Similar to [[3DS:Things to do]] but that one is more like "here's a list of cool things you can do".

=== Main Page ===

A nice [[Main Page]] should be made. It should include a simple explanation of what homebrew is, then links to the main guides, the "Things to do" pages, and maybe troubleshooting.

A search box could be put here too.

<pre><nowiki>
<inputbox>
type=search
placeholder=Placeholder text here...
width=70
</inputbox>
</nowiki></pre>

=== Console introductions ===

These pages should be like an all-around intro to things about hacking a console. Links to guides on getting hacks set up, links to the "things to do", maybe troubleshooting for when things go wrong...

I'm not sure how necessary these pages are though, if there isn't enough stuff that can't also go on the "Things to do" pages. [[User:Ihaveahax|ihaveahax]] ([[User talk:Ihaveahax|talk]]) 02:52, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

* [[Nintendo 3DS]]
* [[Wii U]]
* [[Nintendo Switch]]

=== "Things to do" pages ===

A simple page that someone new to homebrew/cfw can use to start doing something with their newly-hacked console.

* [[3DS:Things to do]]
* [[Wii U:Things to do]]
* [[Switch:Things to do]]

=== Game pages ===

I think we should have pages for individual games with lists of mods, save editors, guides, and maybe other things.

I just picked a random assortment of some popular games. Any game with a mod, save editor, useful hacking guide, etc. can have its own page!

* [[3DS:Animal Crossing: New Leaf]]
* [[3DS:Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon X and Y]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Sun and Moon]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]
* [[3DS:Mario Kart 7]]
* [[Wii U:Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]
* [[Wii U:Mario Kart 8]]
* [[Switch:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]

=== Guides ===

Any sort of guides that could be useful, game-specific or not.

* [[Formatting an SD card/Windows]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/Mac]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/Linux]]
* [[3DS:Keyboard Unbrick]]
* [[3DS:Export saves]]
* [[3DS:System Transfer]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Target has CFW]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Target is stock]]
* [[3DS:GBA games]]
* [[3DS:Setting game locales]]
* [[3DS:Remove outlines in Pokémon games]]

=== Move from main guides ===

Some pages could be moved from the main guides to here.

Don't actually delete these from the main guide until we think this site is ready.

=== Move from Kurisu commands ===

Some stuff that's currently in {{gh|nh-server/Kurisu}} could also be put here. Look inside {{gh|nh-server/Kurisu/tree/main/cogs/assistance-cmds|assistance-cmds}}. Like in the next section, any external guides probably could not just be copied here since we may not have permission to do that.

* Checking 3DS local IP
** [[3DS:Check local IP address]] {{Done}}
* Moving to a new SD card
** [[3DS:Moving SD Cards]] {{Done}}
* [[Wii_U:VC_Extract]] {{done}}
* [[Switch:exFAT]] - {{Done}}
* Error codes maybe?

===General concepts===
Ideas for new pages. Some of these pages already have established guides, which can be used as a reference (but may not be copied directly, depending on permission, and some of them may be out of date anyway)

*Create lots of redirect pages. Someone will probably search things like "Pokemon x" or "Fix black screen" so we should create those pages that point to the right place. This needs some automation too.
**[[Special:BulkPageCreate]], {{gh|ihaveamac/mediawiki-extensions-BulkPageCreate}}
* Make it more obvious that a revision other than the main one is being viewed. Preferably with a MediaWiki hook but JS will probably do.

== Project pages ==

* Create a page about how game pages should be designed.
** [[Hacks Guide Wiki:Game pages]]
* Create a game template page, so anyone who wants to make a page for a specific game knows where to start.
** [[Hacks Guide Wiki:Game pages/Template]] (maybe even make it a preload-able template?)

3DS:Input redirection

Cybelyrium: created the page

Input Redirection enables you to redirect your controller input directly into your console. All controllers are supported as long as you can connect them to your computer somehow. If you have multiple controllers connected, it will combine your inputs. To use this utility, you need to have [[Custom firmware|CFW]] with Luma3DS on the latest version installed into your console.

= What You Need =
* The latest version of [https://github.com/TuxSH/InputRedirectionClient-Qt/releases/tag/v2.1 InputRedirectionClient-Qr] (for your computer).
* Your device's [[3DS:Check local IP address|local IP address]].

= Instructions =
# Open '''InputRedirection-Qt''' after extracting it to a folder in your computer.
# In the IP Address field, input your [[3DS:Check local IP address|device's local IP address]].
# On your device, press (L) + (D-Pad Down) + (SELECT) to open Rosalina Menu.
#* This is the default configuration; if you have broken buttons, you may be using an alternate configuration that changes the key combination to (X) + (Y) or (Y) + (B)
# Navigate to '''Miscellaneous options...'''.
# Select '''Start InputRedirection'''.
# Press (B) until you exit out of Rosalina Menu.
{{success|InputRedirection has been successfully setup!}}

= Troubleshooting =
=== It is not detecting my controller! ===
InputRedirection can only detect XInput, which is present in XBOX controllers. If you are not using an XBOX controller, you should use [https://github.com/x360ce/x360ce/releases/tag/3.2.9.82 x360ce] to use your controller.

=== My inputs are not working! ===
Try rebooting your device and InputRedirection-Qt as well. If the issue still persists, make sure your 3DS and computer are connected to the same internet connection and that you have a stable internet connection.

=== My issue is not listed here! ===

3DS:Custom themes/creation

= Creating custom themes for the 3DS =
Creating custom themes can be done in a number of ways using different tools such as Kame Editor. To use these utilities, you need to have [[Custom firmware|CFW]], a custom theme manager (e.g Anemone3DS) and a device that can manipulate files on a SD card.

== Theme Editors ==
* [https://beelzy.gitlab.io/kame-editor/ Kame-Editor] - For Windows, Mac and Linux users (recommended)
* [https://github.com/usagirei/3DS-Theme-Editor/releases Usagi3DS] - For Windows users
* [https://github.com/exelix11/YATA-PLUS/releases YATA+] - For Windows users
* [https://exelix11.github.io/Yata-online/ YATA+ online] - A browser version of YATA+

'''Should I not use the other editors?'''

You're free to choose which editor you'll work with, but Kame-Editor is the most user-friendly, which means it has an easy to understand interface that'll allow you to make themes with more ease compared to Usagi3DS or YATA+.

Another thing to keep in mind too is that Usagi3DS and YATA+ are incredibly outdated. Kame-Editor receives updates fairly regularly, and hence why you should use it instead of the other theme editors.

== Instructions ==
=== What You Need to Know ===
# Keep mind of the '''gap size'''. Each 3DS has a gap size between each screen, and that gap is approximately '''56 pixels'''. If you want to use a full image for both screens, the gap size is very important.
# Music for the theme must not surpass the file size of '''3.3mb'''. Otherwise the theme will either not appear in your custom theme manager or it will simply not play music.
# SFX (sound effects) have to be under the '''182kb''' limit of file size. Be sure to use small SFX so you can include all the SFX you want to in your theme.

=== Using Kame Editor ===
For more information on how to use Kame Editor, refer to the official [https://gitlab.com/beelzy/kame-editor/-/wikis/home Documentation].

=== Using Usagi3DS ===
For more information on how to use Usagi3DS, refer to this [https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-make-3ds-custom-themes-2020-updated.568539/ guide].

=== Using YATA+ ===
For more information on how to use YATA+, refer to this [https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-creating-a-3ds-custom-theme-from-scratch-with-yata-v1-1.393602/ guide]. This guide is valid for both app and browser version.

3DS:Remove outlines in Pokémon games

2022-08-06T01:30:31Z

Cybelyrium: /* Remove outlines in Pokémon Games */

= Remove outlines in Pokémon Games =
Removing outlines in Pokémon games will require you to have [[Custom firmware|CFW]] with [[3DS:Luma3DS|Luma3DS]], preferably updated to the latest version. This will remove outlines from the Player, NPCs and Pokémon, in overworld, battle and Pokémon Care. However, it will not remove outlines from the UI (text boxes, health bars and more). This is valid for all mainline Pokémon games (XY, ORAS and USUM). Other Pokémon games can't have their outlines removed.

== For Pokémon Sun and Moon/Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon ==
# Go to the app [[Checkpoint]] on the Home MENU.
# Select your Pokémon game by pressing (A) when the icon is highlighted on the top screen.
#*If you do not see your game, try launching the game, playing for a while then closing it. Upon doing this, open Checkpoint again
#*If you still do not see your game, press and hold (B) to refresh the title list
# Select the '''Cheats''' button on the bottom screen.
# Search in the list for '''"No Outlines vX.X"''', then press (A) when the cheat is highlighted.
#*Replace "vX.X" with the current version you have for the game. For example, if you currently run the game using update v.1.1, get the cheat that says '''"No Outlines v1.1"'''
# Press (A) if [[Checkpoint]] prompts you to save the cheat file for this game.
# Close [[Checkpoint]].
# Launch the game you chose the cheat for.
# Press (L) + (D-Pad Down) + (SELECT) to open Rosalina Menu.
#*Or, if you have broken buttons and replaced your "config.ini", press (X) + (Y)
#*If you don't have broken buttons or have not modified a file called "config.ini", you can ignore this
# Go to '''Cheats...'''.
# Press (A) on '''"No Outlines vX.X"'''.
# Press B until Rosalina Menu is closed.
#*If you did this while in-game, try walking to another area or going into a battle for the "No Outlines" cheat to be applied
