Hack 3ds To Play Roms

The big news this weekend was undoubtedly the release of the latest homebrew payloads for the 3DS. However, this wasn’t just a simple updated payloads release like the last one was, this one actually brought something new to the table and that was HANS. What is HANS you may ask? Well, it is a homebrew application that allows users who do not have a Gateway or Sky3DS flashcart to enjoy things like fan-translations and hacked versions of their games.

Hack 3ds To Play Roms

The ability to do these things on my 3DS excited me but, since the method is rather new there is little to no information going around on how to do this. Heck, before today there wasn’t even a way for legit owners of games to dump their games for modding purposes unless you actually were on a firmware that allowed for a kernel exploit. That is all over thanks to GBATemp user Neobrain who just today released Braindump a tool made for the purpose of allowing you to dump and mod your own games.

How to use browserhax or menuhax on 3DS 11.0 to play free 3ds ds roms? Posted on August 8, 2016. Don't allow you to play Pirated DS or 3DS Roms. It is working if you want to play GBA, SNES. Plug&play to hack 3DS, even a child can learn to use it to play. For the hackers, the Stargate 3DS is a cartridge that imitate the original Nintendo game cards to play free 3DS games. The hackers use software that is inserted into the firmware to hack a Nintendo console.

With all of this, and after successfully modding my Pokémon Y into Neo Y, I decided to make a tutorial so all of you here can do the same with this (or other hacks)!

What you will need:

A PC,
A homebrewable 3DS,
Braindump,
Ctrtool
RomFsBuilder,
The hack you want to use (in this case I link you directly to the Neo X/Y hack),
A Hex editor (I recommend HxD),
Lots of time (I mean that literally by the way).

1. First off, we are going to want to know the gameid of the game we’re modding for later reference. I prefer to do this early to not have to go back and do it later, but I guess you could do it only when you need it. Open HANS and choose your game cart. When it loads you will be presented with a screen like the picture above. To figure out your gameid just choose yes in Romfs -> SD and the information will show up a few lines below. In the case of the game Pokémon Y (EU) the id is 00055E00 and HANS even has the courtesy of telling us where in the SD card we will have to place the final patch.

2. Next, we are going to want to dump the game itself to the SD card. This is by far the most tedious part of the whole process because dumping, as it stands right now, isn’t very fast. Download and extract the “braindump” folder inside the zip into your 3ds folder. Then, run braindump and choose your cart and confirm that it opened. After that, plug your 3ds into the charger and go about your day as usual. For me the process took about 6h30m but I’ve heard people on GBATemp claiming as much as 12h. I have a Class 10 SD Card so I guess that might have helped, but who knows. In the case of Pokémon Y, the game is about 1.8GB.
(if you don’t want to wait you can try and get the dump from other places, or extract it from a ROM file. I do not know the process behind that, so in that case you will have to figure that part on your own)

3. Hey! Welcome back! How was your day while the cart dumped? I hope you had fun, because now we get to do some pretty standard stuff. But that just means it is easy and we’ll be done in no time! On the root of your SD Card there should now have be a folder with a huge name and two files inside: romfs.bin and exefs.bin. For the purposes of this tutorial we only need romfs.bin, but other games may require you also use exefs.bin (though I don’t foresee that happening unless you are on a 3DSCFW). Copy the romfs file to a folder on your computer and extract ctrtool there too. Now you are going to open the windows command line and navigate to the folder where you put the romfs.bin/ctrtool file and type this “ctrtool –intype=romfs –romfsdir=romfsdir romfs.bin”, if that is too much trouble for you, I put together this neat .bat file that you only have to paste where the romfs.bin and ctrtool are and run to extract what you need! Wait a few minutes for this to extract and when it is done you should have a romfs folder. We’re almost done!

4. Now, extract the contents of the Neo XY hack and inside you should have a folder called installation hub with both a full and lite folders. In my case I went for the full hack, but read up on the differences and choose whatever seems to best tickle your fancy since the process for both is the same. Inside the folder of the hack version you chose, there should be a romfs folder. Cut that folder and paste it on top of your dumped romfs folder. Choose to overwrite all files and we can move on to the next step.

5. From here on out it’s all a breeze. Open up RomFSBuilder (in the case of Neo XY, there is a version inside the PackHack zip) and point it to your modified romfs folder. The application will take a bit to pack everything and then ask you where you want to save your file. Name it 00055E00.romfs and put it somewhere you can easily access because next we are going to do some hex editing!

Today many of those users may be satisfied with recent versions of. It’s sold from many retailers as a perpetual license for under $100, no subscription needed or available. Adobe pro subscription download.

Notice my amazing PS skills? I should be an artist!

6. Open up HxD (or a hex editor of your choice) and load your romfs file. We are now going to trim the first 0x1000 bytes off this file and this can be the tricky part (I got it wrong the first time), look carefully at the picture I got next to this: noticed the line I selected? The address is 00000FF0 (or 0x0FF0) and we are going to want to delete this line and everything above it. Do not delete the 00001000 line! Although Smea told us to deleted the first 0x1000 lines, he should have said 0x0FF0. No biggie though.

7. Finally we are at the last step! By now you should have a trimmed 00055E00.romfs file and all that’s left is to copy it to the 3DS and run it using HANS! So copy the modified romfs files to a folder called hans on the root of your SD Card and finally load up HANS, choose your cart and tick yes on the Romfs -> SD option and done! If all went correctly you should now be enjoying a freshly hacked ROM! Good job!

Hopefully this should help many people with their romhacking endeavours. I tried to be as noob-friendly as possible and explained this as simply as I could think it as. However, if you still have problems I may try and help you given you actually give me enough information about the issue. If you want to contribute with versions for other hacks or help troubleshoot other users’ problems, I created a thread on the /talk forums with this tutorial so everyone can talk more freely.

Hacker Riku at GBATemp has managed to inject GBA roms to official GBA emulator on 3DS. This is the first time the official GBA emulator on 3DS can be used for something other than the 10 games Nintendo made available for Ambassador 3DS owners.

Nintendo offered Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program as a way of showing appreciation for the people who bought their 3DS before the price drop. The program includes 20 virtual console games in total, 10 NES and 10 GBA games. Even though Nintendo made NES games available for public later, GBA games were never made available thus making ambassador consoles precious.

Official GBA emulator on 3DS is very accurate. It uses the hardware emulation for accuracy. That makes in-game home menu, sleep function and savestates impossible but it is a price to pay i guess.

GBA rom injection is possible on all 3DS models. That means 3DS, 3DS XL/LL, 2DS, New 3DS and New 3DS XL/LL. You will need PBT CFW (for o3DS and 4.5 firmware only) or Pasta CFW (up to 9.2 both for o3DS and New 3DS). Gateway doesn’t support this yet, so i would advise using Pasta CFW instead. Also you can only use this on sysNAND, emuNAND doesn’t work for GBA titles.

The process involves installing stuff to sysNAND so i would advise to do a good reading before applying. Also having sysNAND backups can only help.
