3DS:Alternate Exploits/Homebrew Launcher (PicHaxx): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:42, 11 September 2022

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

Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

Power off your device
Insert your SD card into your computer
Copy boot.firm and boot.3dsx from the Luma3DS .zip to the root of your SD card
Copy the otherapp payload for your region/version from the unSAFE_MODE .zip's otherapps_with_CfgS folder to the root of your SD card and rename it to otherapp.bin
Create a folder named 3ds on the root of your SD card
Copy the slotTool folder from the unSAFE_MODE .zip to the 3ds folder on your SD card

Section II - PicHaxx

Open the PicHaxx Injector website on your computer

Select "Build and Download"
Wait for the process to complete
Navigate to Nintendo 3DS -> <ID0> -> <ID1> -> title -> 00040000 -> 0017c100 -> data on your SD card
- The <ID0> will be the same one that you used in Seedminer
- The <ID1> is a 32 character long folder inside of the <ID0>
Copy the newly downloaded 00000001.sav file to the data folder on your SD card
- Overwrite the old save file when prompted
Reinsert your SD card into your device
