A minor release in preparation of A9NC support in fastboot3ds. For the FIRM from FCRAM support to continue working you need to update your GodMode9 bootloader. A9NC support in fastboot3ds is not yet finished but will be included in the next fastboot3ds release.

And, again a new release with new goodies and some cleanup. For the default gm9 mode to work properly, you need GodMode9 installed as your FIRM0. You can switch to ask mode while A9NC waits for a firm file.

Now, why is this worthwile? This new update receives firms via wifi (using 3dslink on PC side) and passes them to the GodMode9 chainloader without even touching the SD card.

Also, mainly intended for devs, if the GM9 FIRM0 requirement wasn't already enough to scare off n00bs. Everyone else, have fun, but pls read the (very short) readme!

New A9NC release, with these additions:

• New chainloader, written by @Ordim3n
• New bootlogo, thanks to @PabloMK7
• Autolaunching A9NC included in the release archive

Installation instructions for the chainloader: The chainloader allows to automatically start the received payload. Put the chainloader.bin into your SD root as either arm9loaderhax.bin or arm9loaderhax_si.bin (depends on your A9LH version). Put your default payload (typically your CFW) into A9NC/payload.bin. The chainloader is selected via the L button after a payload is received.

Hint for devs: You can configure A9NC to autoload any payload it receives via the chainloader by simply defining AUTO_LAUNCH in main.c.

This release adds some more places on the SD to choose from and allows compatibility with generic boot managers and ShadowNAND.

This is new:

• New payload destination: /homebrew/a9nc.bin
• New payload destination: /a9nc.bin
• New flashy banner sound thanks to Krude
• Various smaller improvements

As Luma3DS (especially the developer version) seems to be the only thing to support A9NC hassle-free, I decided to make some specific changes. This is new:

The name of the payload can now be choosen via a button press

• A to write it to /luma/payloads/nlc.bin
• LEFT to write it to /luma/payload/left_a9nc.bin
• Any button to write it to /luma/payload/(BUTTON)_.bin

This is new:

• Restored compatibility with latest Luma3DS
• Only writes the payload to /luma/payloads/left_A9NC.bin now
• Use LEFT to reboot

This is new:

• Changed the name to A9NC (ARM9 Netload Companion).
• Upon receivimg a payload, A9NC will wait for user input. Keep holding left to boot it in Luma3DS.

Includes various improvements over the first release:

• Also writes the output file to /aurei/payloads/left.bin now
• Waits for Wifi if it is not ready
• Various other improvements
