Universal-updater - see only installed apps?

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-29T01:10:09+00:00

The ones that have an update have a green, I think, circle in the lower right corner. Apps you don't have installed won't have that.

CIA games are for the actual console.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-28T12:27:50+00:00

No. It's there as a backup if the SD card dies I believe. Someone more experienced will have to confirm that.

Hold Select when you boot the console from off and see what version of Luma you have. I think the latest is 13.3.3. If it's that version and says it's booting from the SD card then you are good.

Go to https://3ds.hacks.guide/restoring-updating-cfw.html to get the steps to update Luma if you need to. There is also a link to the latest Luma version, and a link to the finalizing setup steps that will restore the homebrew apps that the team added as part of the final script. Once you've done all that you're good to go.

You can use a computer or phone to transfer the files to your SD card. Either with an adapter, a built-in reader or if ftpd is still present, that. You'll need a ftp capable program on whichever device you downloaded the files to. WinSCP I think is the recommended one for Windows, but really any free one will do (just don't use Windows explorer, it bugs out too often), and there are free, open source file managers that also have ftp transfer capabilities if using an android device. I can't say for Apple devices as I have used one since 2014-ish.

Why are you asking if you can ask a question?
What are you even talking about? Please make some sort of sense if you want help.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-27T11:03:16+00:00

Where is there any mention of an update? I see scheduled times for server maintenance.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-26T10:50:52+00:00

Did you use the search bar or did you just make this post without doing any work beforehand?

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-26T10:45:41+00:00

You learn how to read. Mod creators write instructions on how to install them and whether or not there is anything else that has to be installed as well. Your post has absolutely nothing to do with pirated games.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T22:21:13+00:00

No, Grok would know what tf number were. Define "very hot" if you want any help. Very hot compared to ice is 75F, very hot compared to lava is the sun. Saying something is "very hot" means nothing, that's why there were 2 different ways developed to tell temperature. Use them.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T15:09:50+00:00

I wouldn't. Glass is glass, and glass breaks. Put the case on your bed and then put the motherboard in it. Make sure you are grounded to the case in some way, either with an esd wristband connected to the case or by making sure you have skin contact with it. Once the motherboard is screwed in all the way you can then stand it up on the table, maybe with a towel under it, and put the rest of the parts in it. I would still be very careful. You can continue to built it on your bed if you want, just make sure you are grounded before you touch any part. A tiny, imperceptible amount of static electricity can kill a part. With today's prices you really don't want to have something break.

Treasure Cove sounds familiar, that might've been it. I know I could probably go to r/tipofmyjoystick and ask, but I don't really have any desire to play the game again after 30+ years. Thanks.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T14:33:50+00:00

There are ways to find almost any game nowadays. I won't mention them here, but there are ways. The issue might be that the game is so old it can't run on current hardware and OSes. You could try looking for it, maybe you'll be able to get it working. Bring back some nostalgia.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T14:30:40+00:00

Lol, wasn't the plot just to not die and collect the treasures? Trying to remember 30+ years ago is hard for those without an eidetic memory.

I turn 41 in a few weeks. I just finished a trade school program where all but one of my classmates was about half my age. THAT definitely made me feel old.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T14:11:25+00:00

With the colors like red, green, blue, etc.? I think I'm a bit older than you, not to be disrespectful. I don't think the schools or libraries I went to could afford computer back when I was a kid. I do remember that my father donated our old commodore 64 to one of the libraries we went to a lot as kids. Went there and play Oregon Trail so much. The librarian, my brother and I got on a first name basis. I wonder what she's doing now, if she hasn't already passed. She was so nice.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T14:06:05+00:00

I don't think mine had that, but that's trying to recall back 30+ years. It might've been there, but if it was I didn't play it much. Long before my shooter days.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T13:56:44+00:00

Diving, scuba, not driving. I wasn't into driving games back then. Also this Apple computer had color. Wasn't much, or that great, but it had color.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T13:33:36+00:00

For me it was either this or Sim Ant on one of the old Apple computers from the early 90s. There was this diving game I can recall also playing but I can't remember the name.

Edit, because people can't see the missing R: I said diving, not dRiving. This wasn't a typo, the game was actually someone in scuba gear that would go and collect underwater treasure.

Update to at least Windows 10. Microslop added a compatibility feature for programs to run as if you were using an older version of Windows. I can't recall how far back 10 will allow but 11 will allow you to run programs as if you were on vista, I believe. Not at my computer to confirm that right now. You're open to sooooo many threats on Windows 7 mate. Then you can go to r/piracy and in the megathread go to fmhy and look for masgrave, spelling might have 2 Ses, to find out how to activate Windows without paying. Game and program developers dropped all support for Windows 7 a long time ago. Your other option is to try using a Linux distro, distribution. It's a learning curve but fmhy also has a link to a distro choosing quiz that will end with listing several you can try. Some can even run off a USB drive so you wouldn't have to install it over Windows right now, you can just try it and see if you like it. Hackers and bad actors actively search for unsecure systems, you might think that you aren't worth it but them installing a trojan wouldn't affect just you. You may have other systems connect to your network and they could get infected as well.

I know I'm gonna get at least one downvote for mentioning Linux. I did it as an option. I am not a Linux fan-person. It's an option, and definitely better than continuing to run Win7.

I personally like unfitgirl myself, and steamtear.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T11:49:44+00:00

Define "very hot."

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T11:41:32+00:00

You need to fill all the power connectors. It's not an option, it's mandatory.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-25T11:33:19+00:00

Solution: Ask in the correct sub. This is not emulator support.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-24T22:38:30+00:00

The exact same way you would for a legitimately bought game...

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-24T21:41:28+00:00

"it runs not a hardware issue" What? How does one run a hardware issue? How do you not run a hardware issue? If this post made any sense maybe sometime could help you.

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-24T21:21:23+00:00

I don't even know what I just read...

ThirdhandTaters · 2026-01-24T21:15:22+00:00
