3DS:Wireless streaming/HzMod: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 23:16, 23 October 2024

This is not the preferred streaming method on a New 3DS, as ntr-hr has notably higher performance. If you have a New 3DS, you will likely want to follow the base page instead.

Installing HzMod

What You Need

Your console's IP from the first section
The latest release of Snickerstream
HzMod
FBI installed on your console

Section I: Prep Work

Ensure that your console and your computer are on the same network
Download and extract the latest Snickerstream .zip file
Download and extract the HzMod .zip file
Take the SD card out of your console and put it into your computer
Copy the HorizonM.cia and HzLoad.cia files from where you extracted the HzMod .zip file to your SD card
- You may put these files anywhere where you can easily access them
- If you plan on streaming extended memory games, copy the HzLoad_HIMEM.cia file to your SD card as well
Put your SD card back into your console

Section II: Installing CIAs

Power on your console if it is not already on
Open FBI
Press A on SD at the top of your bottom screen
Find the .cia files that you copied, press A on each one and select Install and delete CIA
- Once you are done, press START to exit FBI

Section III: Streaming

Open the Snickerstream .exe file from where you extracted it
Change the Streaming app on the right side of the Snickerstream window to HzMod in the dropdown
On your console, open all the gifts that appeared on your HOME menu and open HorizonM Loader
- If you plan on streaming extended memory games, open HorizonM HIMEM Loader instead
- Your notification LED should now turn cyan, meaning it's ready for streaming
Input your console's IP from the first section into the IP box in the Snickerstream window
- You may also adjust your settings to your liking if you wish
Click Connect! in the Snickerstream window
- Your console's notification LED should turn green, and its top screen should now be streamed to your computer
- You will likely experience an average of 3 FPS with this method if you have an Old 3DS. This low framerate is normal and cannot be improved, as Old 3DS models have weak hardware
To open a game correctly, do not immediately close HorizonM Loader - instead, press the HOME button, select a game to open, and only then press A when asked to close the loader

HzMod has now been installed and activated.
