About Luma Locale Region Auto Setter

Playing a game from another region can break its DLC, or give you a black screen or an SD error. A Luma locale file sorts that out for one game, and this writes them for all 226 titles it knows about. The count is shown at the top of the screen, so a lower number means an older release.

It needs Luma 7.0 or newer with Enable game patching turned on in the Luma config (hold Select at boot). On first launch it writes a code.ips to find out if game patching is on. The .3dsx always reports it as off. Press A to create any locale files you're missing.

If the CIA says patching is off and you know it's on, an older version may have left a code.ips in /luma/titles/0004000005445000/. Delete it, or ignore the message.

Release notes

v1.1-225 · Version 1.1 (226 Titles) · Dec 9, 2018

v1.1 brings Region Checking, no longer will locale files be created for games within the same region!
Also Yokai Watch 3 (EUR) Added.

If the Game Patching line is showing "Disabled" when you know its "Enabled" check the Readme since you need to delete a code.ips file or feel free to ignore it if you know your patching is working.
