I am getting this error "OSError: read returned empty 0x1c000" with "[31376] Failed to execute script squirrel" when converting My Time at Sandrock [0100B63016916000] nsp to nsz. any idea what this means? the completed nsz is in the folder.. but not sure if it went allright...

was looking for a way to dump straight from my switch via usb
got the dbi on my switch and got the nscb.exe and .bat.

DONOT run them as is. for whatever reason it seems to RMDIR the whole folder it's executed int, lost my entire downloads folder with documents and shit spanning 10 years back. no way to restore. (SSD).

sure, bad of me to not have a backup but also very bad default behaviour, imho.

looked for a way to file a bug report or something but didn't find jack shit to send any message to author or write ticket on the git so... warning here.

Found an updated fork of this project
https://github.com/seiya-dev/NSC_BUILDER

Doesn't work for me. Just gives - "keys.txt" is not correctly pointed or is missing. when opening. The same keys.txt file works fine in the regular release. I also tried creating a new one and also placing it in every directory possible in the mod version.

Edit: Found out the keys.txt file should be renamed to prod.keys and played in your user directory inside a folder named ".switch" (without the quotes). Or I guess you could just drop your entire prod.keys file in there.

Mind sharing it please? I dont know how to build it from source

You don't have to build it. Click on the green "Code" button. Download the zip. It's in the py directory of the zip file. You may have to run the install_dependencies.bat file that is also included.

Hi! I'm having the same problem with the keys "missing" when i'm sure i put the file in the ztools folder correctly like the previous versions.
I don't understand how you fixed this issue. Where is this user folder you mention? How do I create a folder ".switch", windows wont allow me to

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
