Zelda oot region four

[sebsrizzo]

Hi, i love your work in the 3ds scene and i would like to ask you a favor, could you please please compile zelda oot region four? Nobody has compiled it and i dont know how to do it, please it would be awesome, i really want to use it

[yellows8]

I assume you mean a raw savedata flash-image for writing with a gamecard USB dongle / etc.

The way to generate a proper image is to use a 3DS to write the image. But doing that for {3 oot3dhax regions} * {2 cardID sets} * {all the different regionFOUR builds with payload.bin} is a lot of images + effort.

[sebsrizzo]

Yeah i would like a save , i thought that region four support for zelda oot was complete thats why i was asking for it, my zelda oot catridge is from Japan. Thanks

[yellows8]

The source code for it is complete.

I guess you don't know the 4-byte cardID for that gamecard?

[sebsrizzo]

Sorry i dont know it, Is it important? My gamecard has this: Lna-ctr-aqej-jpn Aqejx10134

[yellows8]

What exactly would you use for writing the save-image if you had one?

[sebsrizzo]

My friend has a 6.x 3ds, i think i could write the save with the gateway restore option, he doesnt have a gateway card so i can not write it with a dev app. If that doesnt works i think i should get a r4i dongle

[sebsrizzo]

What would you recommend me to write the save? I think rxtools has a injection feature

[yellows8]

"I think rxtools has a injection feature" <- I'm not familiar with how rxtools handles it.

[sebsrizzo]

Could you please share a jpn save? If you need information or help i would try to give it to you

[yellows8]

It's not really possible for me to upload just one saveimage, without knowing your cardID. And it sounds like you have no way to get it either.

[sebsrizzo]

Could you tell me how i can get my card id, maybe i can find a way to get it.

[yellows8]

Oh actually, you can get it from the data @ 0x1000 in a rom-dump /w GW(it's somewhere starting there, don't remember the exact offset).

[profi200]

You need a way to import the savegame fs (Currently only SaveDataFiler.). RAW savegames will not work/are too complicated. And also i think he will not port regionFOUR to this. There is not enough demand for it.

[sebsrizzo]

Thats great, i will try to dump it with my friends 3ds and then i will open it in my computer, rxtools now supports cias, i think now i can inject it with savedatafiler

[yellows8]

"And also i think he will not port regionFOUR to this." It's already supported...

[profi200]

Since when? Thought that's CN-only.

[sebsrizzo]

Card id is the same as the header?

[yellows8]

It's stored in the so-called "header".

[sebsrizzo]

Excellent I extracted my header with a tool and i got this 8E 9C 5A A2 58 15 D9 BC A1 9D 38 93 FF 31 8E 25 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF C2 FE 00 90 00 00 00 00 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF

[yellows8]

My codebase currently doesn't have anything implemented for accessing the raw flash image on the latest FIRM(patch from older FIRM isn't implemented). So I can't easily do anything with your saveimage right now.

[sebsrizzo]

Oh that is too bad but thanks anyway

[sebsrizzo]

Do you think that using save data filer will help?

[yellows8]

"Do you think that using save data filer will help?" <- Writing to the savedata FS using FSUSER is exactly what the README says to do, which is what that tool does.

[sebsrizzo]

If i have a 6.x 3ds, my game card id and save data filer whats else do i need?

[yellows8]

cardID doesn't matter with savedatafiler. Since you can use *filer, you could just build oot3dhax+regionFOUR yourself.

[sebsrizzo]

The problem is i dont know hot to build it, i have alredy installed savedatafiler in the 6.x 3ds. Sorry for bothering you is just that i want to use region four in my jap N3ds.

[sebsrizzo]

Well now the 3ds is 4.x ( i downgraded the console because the new rxtool version doesnt supports 4.5+ consoles)

[yellows8]

"now the 3ds is 4.x" In that case you must use other things for region-free.

[sebsrizzo]

That console is from my friend, i want to use zelda oot region four in my 9.8 n3ds

[yellows8]

Write the contents of this into your oot3d savedata FS: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20520664/regionFOUR_oot3d_jpn_new3ds_v98.zip

EDIT: .zip updated now.

[sebsrizzo]

Wow thanks a lot, its working perfect. You re the best 3ds hacker, you are patient and really really helpful once again thanks a lot :) http://pho.to/9Tawx

Strange, top-screen background is supposed to be black(and I even tested this build). Oh well I guess.
