Do you miss scanning QR codes in PTC? Well, I have a solution!

Instructions:

Move the 3DS around to scan QR codes Only the current code is shown.

Notes:

P.S. That picture is not a screenshot

There is a problem where I can't use the Public Key. can you fix?
Key temporarily removed

Can I scan MM2PTC with this?
@slackerSnail: But the user-created programs don't have Internet access. So even if someone did write a program to take pictures of you without your knowledge, there wouldn't be any problem since the creator wouldn't have any way to receive those pictures.

@flarn2006 Some people are creeps who get off of the mere idea of taking inopportune photos of people. Even so, file transfer methods to PC have been made multiple times over in SB, so these photos actually could get distributed.

@slackerSnail: Yeah, they could get distributed, but only by the person who owns the 3DS that took the picture. So if someone made a program to surreptitiously take pictures of people, and someone downloaded and ran it, the only way that picture is getting distributed is if the person knew that the program took their picture, found the picture, and chose to distribute it. The person who wrote and published the program wouldn't have any way of getting it otherwise.

The problem is people walking around with their 3DSes intentionally filming people in secret, not a program secretly filming you when you run it.

@slackerSnail: Oh, that's what you mean, like why the built-in camera app plays the shutter sound even if you have the volume off. I never liked the idea of that; I think products should never be designed to go against their owners' wishes whatever those may be, though that's far from the only way the 3DS fails to adhere to that. And besides, if I wanted to secretly film people I'd just use my phone, with actually lets me disable the shutter sound like it should. Though I think the issue is it's a law in Japan, and Nintendo was too lazy to change it in the international models. Anyway, there would still be a solution to that. It wouldn't enable every potential use of the camera in programs, but it would still work for this. Just have a command that takes a picture, stores it in one of the graphics pages, and plays the shutter sound. It could happen either immediately, or pause execution to display a live preview and wait for the user to take a picture.

The shutter sound in the 3DS camera is completely pointless, because you can just start taking a video before, which only plays a (much quieter) sound at the start. So yeah it's probably a law or something.

I'm interested in trying this. Would you mind re-uploading it sometime soon?

AWESOME

It's saddeningly inaccurate; sorry. It is nice and cool, though: good job.

(Now you see why I unpublished this)

I'd thought you done it to save space because you hadn't had gold membership or something.

yes, but that's why I picked this program to remove

God if you could make a qr scanning program to download programs I would cry.. My old 3ds broke and it had the old petit computer on it..and I just wish I could have MM2 PTC back..I love the old petit computer much more than smilebasic...I could mod the heck out of MM2 on the old one but now I can't ever get it.. I say and I know this is for a completely selfish reason, you should try to find a way to make a qr code scanner to download games. Or somebody. I know this is completely selfish. Thank you and good day. And yes I know this is probably just an impossible dream..

haha, I was just thinking the other day about making some kind of qr scanner/reader. Although, it would involve loading images with the same name instead of the horrible PTC method of "downloading" programs with the camera! o_O

Wouldn't they just scan and retain the same compatibility errors as manually porting? Wouldn't it be better to just make something that converts Petit Computer's SmileBASIC to the one SmileBASIC has?

I thought so. I think my guess is still valid anyway~

there are other ways to send code to SB, the problem is that PTC and SB are slightly very different, so the code would have to be heavily modified. Someone *cough*Persson*cough* was going to make a PTC->SB code converter but they gave up I think.

Ah, good times. Also, the first time I played this, I actually thought for a second that it was actually looking for a QR Code; this means I'm still gullible and you're great at making things look authentic. In addition to that, this runs perfectly and is very enjoyable. My hat goes off to you.
