Hello, I got 2 3DS, one New 3DS XL on 11.0 that I want to hack and another O3DS XL on 4.1 that I use with Gateway and emuNAND. I'm looking to downgrade the N3DS and hack it and transfer the data on the O3DS to it. Anyway, it's been a really long time I haven't used it or checked the hacking scene so I'd like to know what would be the best and easiest way (guide if possible) to do the downgrade right now, I'm planning to install Luma3DS CFW after the downgrade btw.

I would install A9LH on the old 3ds XL, which gets rid of the emunand unless you want one, and then do the downgrade.
Once you install A9LH on the old 3ds, I'd recommend updating the new 3ds to 11.2, as this way, you don't need a homebrew entrypoint for ctr httpwn. If you want to do the dsiware downgrade it's best to just update to 11.2

So I should first get A9LH on the old 3DS XL and then update the New one to 11.2 to make the downgrade? Well what's the guide for the DSiWare downgrade? I'm not sure how I should do it

Get A9LH on the old 3ds XL, update the old 3ds XL to 11.2. Aslong as the old 3ds is running A9LH it's safe to update. Buy Legends of Exidia for $8 on your old 3ds XL, it must be a legit copy. Update the New 3ds which is unhacked to 11.2, and perform the dsiware downgrade.

I see, so the downgrade is easier on 11.2, well I saw the steps and it seem very long, I hope I'll be able to do it, I already have four swords for the downgrade but the steps looks kinda hard.

I've done it on an o3ds and a n3ds, if you have any trouble ask the discord at https://discord.gg/ejUMR They respond pretty fast.

It's pretty straightforward. The guide is just really verbose.

    I think my favorite PS1 enhancement is sub pixel precision, helps get rid of some of those wobbly polygons lol

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Psionic Roshambo, By default, the polygons are filtered with differing to simulate depth, which doesn't make them clearer.

    There are ways to disable this by creating cheat codes, but this requires knowledge of the PS1 hardware.

    Emulation is the way to go for so many reasons NES get rid of flicker by turning off the sprite per line limit. Cheats? Ken Batocera is your friend almost every console has cheats in it
