Is there some sort of tool to fix an nca header signature issue. I was playing around with SAK and converting files around between different formats (XCZ, NSP, NSZ). On some conversions, I get "nca header signature verification failed with status <<invalid>>" when checking it with NXViewer. Maybe something that allows you to edit it manually to become proper or allows you to repair it?

Hash shows valid for all files.

No because this requires Nintendo private keys that never leaked.
Thanks for the answer. Just what I was looking for. So confirmed it cannot be done.

Is there possibly something that converts xci to nsp and to nsz's while keeping signature in tact?

You can convert nsp to nsz and xci to xcz without breaking signatures

i doubt this. afaik, the process to convert from nsp to nsz is
decrypt-compress-reencrypt
because compression works best for unencrypted data.
Therefore the contents are modified and the signature is broken.
Same for xci-xcz.

    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."

    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.

    @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:
