Dazzozo how long do you think ironhax will work before Nintendo patches it?
<Dazzozo>
depends if you mean ironhax itself or the deeper system exploits
<Dazzozo>
ironhax itself should've been patched already.. idk whats taking them so long
<Dazzozo>
perhaps Nintendo wants to see someone use it before they pressure/threaten the game dev to release a patch
<Dazzozo>
maybe listening to the community is against some internal policies, hehe
<Dazzozo>
internal policies sure like to get in the way
<xRandomLurker>
:o
<xRandomLurker>
It isnt out yet though?
<Dazzozo>
indeed
<Dazzozo>
that may be why they are refusing to pressure the game dev, is my point
<xRandomLurker>
Ahhh
<Dazzozo>
Nintendo have no "proof" it exists
<xRandomLurker>
Makes sense
<Dazzozo>
the deeper system exploits - well, for the most part, the main exploit is the same as ninjhax 1
<Dazzozo>
that was never fixed, and its very difficult for them to really "fix" it..
<Dazzozo>
the gpu has the ability to read/write pretty much arbitrary main memory
<xRandomLurker>
So technically its the same as ninjhax but how smea exploits the game is different?
<Dazzozo>
ultimately, the game does very little, infact i think in ninjhax 2 he shuts it down
<Dazzozo>
the game exploits are very cheap and not very interesting
<Dazzozo>
sure, some credit given for finding new ones, but the system exploits are where the "money" is (heh)
<xRandomLurker>
Ok
<Dazzozo>
and the crux of ninjhax in that regard is still the same exploit - gspwn
<Dazzozo>
the only real value in this specific game exploit is the game is free, and it has a user-facing entrypoint (allegedly)
<Dazzozo>
in that it requires nothing particularly "specialist" to use
<xRandomLurker>
Cool
<xRandomLurker>
Say if i somehow corrupt my 3DS exploiting the exploit, could i recover it and / or is there a way to backup and restore just like bootMii on the Wii or nandroid backups on Android?
<luca020400>
Hey Dazzozo ^^
<Dazzozo>
haha, just found one of the stagefright patches doesnt fix the problem..
<Dazzozo>
xRandomLurker: you can technically take a nand backup (not via ironhax though) and restore it, and that can fix issues..
<Dazzozo>
but its not "black and white" like it almost is on android, where restoring it will fix every issue ever
<luca020400>
The great news is
<xRandomLurker>
Ok
<Dazzozo>
you can, pretty much permanently, brick a 3ds through software (quite easily)
<Dazzozo>
thats just how it is
<luca020400>
I won't be able to download ironfall
<luca020400>
Lol
<Dazzozo>
also, when its non-booting, restoring a backup requires hw-nand-access
<Dazzozo>
i.e. you cant restore a backup through software if you cant boot..
<xRandomLurker>
Ohhh
<xRandomLurker>
:/
<Dazzozo>
sadly, more often than not, you have to get your hands dirty on the 3ds
<xRandomLurker>
Might not do much with it as im borrowing my sisters 3ds
<Dazzozo>
and honestly, there's not a ton of homebrew to begin with
<Dazzozo>
not sure why smealum bothers tbh, ninjhax 1 showed that bootstrapping a homebrew scene is a non-starter
<Dazzozo>
everyone who wants to get their hands dirty already can
<xRandomLurker>
Once a n64 emulator comes out ill buy my own
<Dazzozo>
lol, good luck waiting for that
<xRandomLurker>
Xd
<Dazzozo>
a *lot* of gpu work needs to happen before that would even be potentially playable
<xRandomLurker>
I've got my DSi thats mine so i just need a n64 that works ok and ill use the 3DS
<xRandomLurker>
Xd
<xRandomLurker>
N64 emulator*
<Dazzozo>
do you have dsiwarehax on that dsi?
<luca020400>
My nds buttons stopped to work :/
<luca020400>
Lol
<luca020400>
Only A and B works
<luca020400>
Every other button is dead
<xRandomLurker>
It sucks that n64 emulator on wii isnt that good as GameCube controller has one z button
<xRandomLurker>
But wait
<xRandomLurker>
The classic controller is a thing
<xRandomLurker>
Xd
<Dazzozo>
i play all my gamecube stuff on wii u
<Dazzozo>
lol
<xRandomLurker>
Other 1tb hard drive corrupted and click so i think r/w head is broken
<xRandomLurker>
And another 1tb i have is usb 3.o
<xRandomLurker>
And it dont work
<Dazzozo>
woo, got my new3ds going again
<Dazzozo>
brum brum
<xRandomLurker>
Xd
<Dazzozo>
i blew the battery fuse, hehe
<xRandomLurker>
I wonder which 'lad' invented the phrase cheeky nandos now
<Dazzozo>
tbh that probably wouldve been funny had it not exploded on a global scale
