@Asia81 I like that the new update now asks for Minor and Micro version numbers. Can we also have it ask for Major as well? I'm finding that I still need to rebuild my CIA's with makerom because I cannot input the Major number using your tool like I can Minor and Micro.
How does the version numbers work? If you want to make a CIA that is version 1.4.9, do you put 1 for Major, 4 for Minor and 9 for Micro?

Major is automatically set by makerom.

Try this and tell me the error message.
I'm sure it's because you have a 32b windows, then ctrtool and/or makerom support only 64b.

This version of C:/ProgramFiles/HackingToolkit3ds/ctrtool.exe is not compatible with the version of windows that is running.
Check your computer's system information to ask if you need a x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.
"Press a key to continue . . ."(XD)

And yes, I use windows 7 32-bit, in my very very veeeeeeeery old XD pc

Try one on tese ctrtool.
Remove 32b or 64b and replace the one and the installed folder.

You can get the aeskeydb.bin from the Guide. We can't link to the seeddb.bin. You can search for the title key site and it should show you where you can get it.

I followed the tuto, making sure the cia is descrypted, writing the cia's name without this extension, and it's still dosen't work. I dunno what i did wrong.
