title: "How to extract your Metroid: Samus Returns RomFS"
tags: samus_returns
---
You can either extract your RomFS using Godmode9 from your 3DS, or using Citra from an installation file (.3ds or .cia). We'll show you how to do it using both methods.

## Godmode9

### Game Installed on SD Card

If you're using the NTSC version, navigate to **[A:] SYSNAND SD -> title -> 00040000 -> 001bb200 -> content -> 00000000.tmd**.

If you're using the PAL version, navigate to **[A:] SYSNAND SD -> title -> 00040000 -> 001bfb00 -> content -> 00000000.tmd**.

Next, navigate to **TMD file options... -> Mount CXI/NDA to drive**, then press A to confirm.

Highlight the **romfs** directory, and press A while holding R to open another menu. From here, select **Copy to 0:/gm9/out**. Copy the extracted RomFS folder from this directory on the SD Card to some place on your computer.

### Game Cartridge

If you're using the NTSC version, navigate to **[C:] GAMECART -> 00040000001BB200_v00.trim.3ds**.

If you're using the PAL version, navigate to **[C:] GAMECART -> 00040000001BFB00_v00.trim.3ds**.

Next, navigate to **NCSD image options... -> Mount image to drive**, then press A to confirm.

Press A to enter the **content0.game** directory. Highlight the **romfs** directory, and press A while holding R to open another menu. From here, select **Copy to 0:/gm9/out**. Copy the extracted RomFS folder from this directory on the SD Card to some place on your computer.

## Citra

First, download and setup Citra. Once you've set it up, navigate to **File -> Install CIA...** to add the directory with your game image or simply double click on **Add New Game Directory** in the main window. Your game should be shown in Citra now.

Finally, right click on the game and select **Dump RomFS**.

title: "Enable Game Patching in Luma3DS"
tags: samus_returns

You should already have Luma3DS installed on your SD Card, but if not, you can download the latest release here: <https://github.com/LumaTeam/Luma3DS/releases>

Once you have the randomizer files and Luma3DS on your SD Card in the proper folders, open Luma3DS by holding SELECT when turning on your 3DS. Check **Enable game patching** to apply the mod.

Once it is enabled, save and return to the Home Menu, then launch the game. To disable the mod, re-enter the Luma3DS menu and check the option.
