OH MY GOD. Thanks so much. I've been looking for this for so long.

Where's the source link?

 

[ScarletDreamz]

There is no Source, also, unless you are Matt_Teix, give credits to the proper creator.

This tool is made on C#, it uses Devkit [Switch Library Only], so you will need it ;D.

IF and only IF you are Matt_Teix, thanks for the tool, been using it a while now C:

 

[re.lax]

Lol yup I am Matt_Teix from Warex i appreaciate that you were making sure. Glad you like it and that it works for you. Source will be added down the road. I’m trying to redo it with mono to support Mac OS X and Linux and the codes a mess and not functional

 

[Skonikol]

What could be the problem? The keys are definitely all right.

0xc000007b error is usually wrong .net framework and redist version (32bit instead of 64bt, for example, or old version and you need to update, or just missing redist completely, etc.

 

[re.lax]

I didn’t realize there’s different versions of linkle. https://github.com/MegatonHammer/linkle/releases/tag/v0.2.5 Download the one you need and replace it in the resources folder of your still having issues

Thank you, your comment helped me.

 

[re.lax]

I think the nacptool has been fixed in the newest switchbrew tools commit so I’ll see if I can remove linkle and might alleviate some issues.

 

[Cyan]

I didn't even know linkle before reading about your tool. I'm currently making a list of all available tools, that helped me.
Thanks for making nro2nsp and wanting to make it easier for everyone.

Now I can't get the icon (size and format are correct).

Now I can't get the icon (size and format are correct).

It’s because you Img has exif data. Use paint or gimp and save as .bmp then open the .bmp and save as .jpg.

This works a treat I was using it late last night and all the nsp builds I did all worked on firmware 6.0. Just an easy guide to help everyone set this up:
Download this and fully install the latest version 3.0.3 for windows
https://github.com/devkitPro/installer/releases

Then to get the keys.dat file grab the same keys.txt from the XCI-Explorer folder you use to check your xci files out on your pc if you have not got one download XCI-Explorer run it and it will download a keys.txt file and rename that too keys.dat use bulk rename if you need too. Put that in the resources folder.

Grab your imgs from google resize them down with windows paint 256 x 256 save as jpeg. Click on the img box in nro2nsp and find your img click on that.

Add your details app name, any title Id would do use the original one just add 22, 23, 24 etc at the end of the id, made by .....

Make sure you pick either the correct nro file for full nsp in the Romfs box or for a forwarder you want /switch/gcdumptool/gcdumptool.nro in the Sdmc box for a working example. Make sure your route to the .nro file is correct from the route of your sd card from the switch folder to the nro file else the Nintendo Switch will throw an error up starting the homebrew, it should then compile a working nsp then install it via your preferred method.

Thanks for the write up, new version is in the pipe and hopefully will finished soon. Had to do a whole new rewrite. I’ll post the source when it’s done. It’ll make its own .nacp now (no linkle required). Convert any picture to a proper 256x256. Possibly MacOS and Linux support(don’t know if it’ll work yet) a long with some other minor tweaks.

No problem thank you for this app. This in my opinion without a doubt is the easiest homebrew nsp compiler I know in the scene and I know a lot of users out there would love to make their own homebrew/nsp files and why not, in my opinion for newbies this is the best and easiest application to use and I don’t think potential users realise just how easy it is. Feel free to add the information to your op if you want? it’s very straight forward to understand and works I also look forward to your future developments.

How does this not have more attention?

 

[Reecey]

How does this not have more attention?

I really don't know because its the major bollocks when making homebrew apps for your main menu! it's better than the rest and I will back that statement up!

 

[re.lax]

New Version with source up, test and let me know how it works!

Thanks for the update I will test it soon as I can also I thought of something you could add to the project how about extracting the nsp as well into nca or even layeredfs format that would be a very handy option.
