   * **ROM Serial**: You can find this at 0x1150 in the ROM.
   * **ROM Revision**: You can find this at 0x312 in the ROM.
-  * **Cart ID**: Included in the txt file beside the ROM in the virtual drive called “GAMECART”.
+  * **.txt file**: Its a good idea to provide the .txt file produced by GodMode9 as it includes various cart IDs plus info like the dump date (if the 3DS internal clock is set correctly) and the GodMode9 version.
-    * Technical note - GodMode9 displays these in the little endian byte order (i.e. first byte is the chip manufacture byte), which makes sense as the 3DS CPU is little endian (as are the DS and DSi's CPUs). But the gbatek documentation of the [[https://problemkaputt.de/gbatek.htm#dscartridgeprotocol|cart protocol]] displays these in big endian byte order (i.e. last byte is the chip manufacture byte).
-  * **Save Chip ID**: Found in the same file as the Cart ID.
   * **PCB Serial**: Use for ''▼'' for the triangle character, one space character ('' '') for each empty "slot" and ''•'' for the small circle characters (which don't always appear).
+  * **ROM Chip Serial**: You may not want to open the cart, as its possible the plastic will break or that the cart won't be easy to put together again. However this hasn't been tested thoroughly. The ROM chip serial isn't so important for DS/3DS as the pertinent info is also written on the outside of the cart.
