Thank you @Riku for the software. It was an ease to use! But if it's possible to implement a %-bar? Since people might think it locks when it's working.
There's a lot of stuff involved in process, such as hash calculations etc. It's not 'simple' to make proper and accurate progress bar here and I'm afraid multithreading may affect overall performance. Besides, current version is somewhat whitelisted by antiviruses. Every time I push new update it causes people getting alerts from antiviruses for some time.

'headers' are only used for physical games. you don't need to do anything

I have a question about ExHeader XORpads @Riku , when I use them to create the CIA, is there any risk involved with my console if I share those CIAs? Like if I could get banned due to other consoles or something like that, i don't know what they are... Thanks in advance!

Any way to use this with ReiNand 10.3? Needing xorpads but I switched from rxTools to ReiNand & completely forgot about xorpad creation. :(

Just used this recently and it worked perfectly and was comparatively simple. I was in the middle of trying to do a conversion with another tool and really didn't understand the process until I remembered this. Thanks again!

So I've been editing ORAS with PK3DS. I can edit the roms just fine and rebuild with HackPack. However, when I convert the .3ds to .cia with the Simple Converter, I always get "An error occurred. Please turn off the DS and try again." when trying to boot the installed cia on rxTools 10.4 emunand. I have converted to .cia both with and without the xorpads and neither works. Any idea what might be causing this?

Can we convert ds games into cia as well? Is there an option to play DS games without flashcard on the 3ds ?

    I don't see the buzz about a square screen personally. I think there will be a review on the site within a few weeks though if you are interested.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.

    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
