3DS:Alternate Exploits/Homebrew Launcher (PicHaxx)

Required Reading

This method of using Seedminer for further exploitation uses your movable.sed file to write a custom save file for Pokémon Picross, which can then be used with unSAFE_MODE to run SafeB9SInstaller.

This process will overwrite your Pokémon Picross save file, if you have one. If you wish to preserve your Pokémon Picross game data, you should make a backup of your 00000001.sav file before overwriting it.

What You Need

• The game "Pokémon Picross" (free on eShop) installed on your device
  • You can scan this QR code using the Nintendo 3DS Camera for a direct link to the eShop app
  • Your SD card must be inserted in your device to install Pokémon Picross
• Your movable.sed file from completing Seedminer
• The latest release of Luma3DS (the Luma3DS .zip file)
• The latest release of unSAFE_MODE
