Prerequisites & File Setup [WIP]

This was done on a Surface 3 running Windows 10. I cannot provide support for OS X or Linux computers, sorry.

Items you will need

  • 3DS with custom firmware (preferably A9LH). If you don't have this, please follow Plailect's arm9loaderhax guide.
  • The latest stable release of AuroraWright's Luma3DS or the latest nightly version of Luma3DS by AstronautLevel2
  • A CIA or Cartridge version of Pokemon Sun or Moon
  • Sun and Moon v1.1 update downloaded onto your 3DS, from that iso site as a CIA, the regular eShop, or from freeShop (when it gets added)
  • LunarIPS
  • These IPS patches
  • The latest version of d0k3's GodMode9

PC File Setup

  1. On your Desktop, make a folder called SaltySD Setup.
  2. Download and extract the IPS Patches zip to your SaltySD Setup folder.
  3. Download and extract LunarIPS to your SaltySD Setup folder.

SD Card File Setup

  1. Download the latest version of Luma3DS (either stable release or nightly), extract it, and move arm9loaderhax.bin to your SD card's root, overwriting your existing file.
  2. Download and extract the latest version of GodMode9 to your computer. Move the GodMode9.bin file to your luma/payloads/ folder. Rename that .bin file to left_GodMode9.bin.
  3. If you downloaded the v1.1 update CIA from that iso site, move the .cia to your SD card.
  4. Find the .ips patch you want to use.
  5. Only do this step if you want to install SaltySD: On the root of your SD card, make a folder called saltysd. Inside of that folder make a folder called SunMoon, inside of that folder make a folder called data, and inside of that folder make a folder called sound. Your overall folder structure should be SD://saltysd/SunMoon/data/sound.
  6. Go to next section if you installed the latest stable version of Luma3DS or this section (if you installed the latest nightly version of Luma3DS)

If you installed the latest stable version of Luma3DS

  1. Inside of your 'luma' folder, make a folder called code_sections.
  2. Make sure that you have the 1.1 update installed.
  3. Go to the Using GodMode9 page to go to the next part of the guide.

If you installed the latest nightly version of Luma3DS

  1. Inside of your 'luma' folder, make a folder called titles. Inside of that folder make a folder with the name as the title ID of either Sun (0004000000164800) or Moon (0004000000175E00).
  2. Rename the .ips patch you choose to code.ips if it is not named that already. If you get the .ips from the Sun folder, move it to the 0004000000164800 folder. If you use the .ips from the Moon folder, move it to the 0004000000175E00 folder.
  3. Make sure that you have the 1.1 update installed.
  4. Go to this section of the Applying the Patches page to finish the rest of the guide.
