ROM Hack [Release] Ultimate GBC VC Injector for 3DS

[Tacosaregood]

I need this for SNES injections, it's so hard to find the tools for SNES rom injections.

 

[wawnord]

Sorry about that, I'll look into it tomorrow (in 12 hours more or less)

Same Problem. Windows 10 Pro / Net Framework >4.5 /Tested as admin and win 7 comp.

Is it just a Pokemon Crystal problem?

also, good shit op. I've been needing this for a good long while. Praise the goddesses for people like you.

Nope, was on Poke Gold (German)

Looks pretty cool!

Thanks to the OP for making such a convenient tool. I might give it a try later.

I have one question though, is there a lot of difference between the VC versions and the homebrew emulators? Gameplay and compatibility wise, i mean. I already know some people love having everything in the homescreen (I personally don't like having too many icons, even in folders) instead of having to open the emulator first.

Same problem as the others. Running Windows 10. Error info below.

Hope this helps, sorry I have to be the bearer of a bug lol.

Spoiler: Error info

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

The application must also be compiled with debugging

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

Possible to also allow the import of icon.bin and banner.bin?
Because I have these files already made, and I have to write useless infos in your tool then extract/rebuild your cia

Because I have these files already made, and I have to write useless infos in your tool then extract/rebuild your cia

You mean import the whole icon.bin and banner.bin for not doing step 2&3, or you want the data but maybe 3d frame color?

I'll look better into icon.bin and banner.bin to see the hex layout and extract all data to auto-fill the fields.

But first I'll try to fix this error.

 

[Asdolo]

Sorry for the inconvenience, I'll fixing this today. For me It worked with all roms I tried, (poke crystal, gold, silver, yellow, tcg 1 & 2...) at W10 x64bits

 

[Asia81]

I have also W10 64b, and it crash when I try to build the CIa, as other people, said :/
Thanks for my request

I haven't tried any GBC homebrew emulator. In my case, I want the icons in homemenu, plus, I like the idea to makes the things the more legit as I can

The ultimate in GBC VC injection today!
​

Hello everyone. Today I'm releasing a Windows tool that will make the GBC injection process much easier and customizable. Today I'm presenting Ultimate GBC VC Injector for 3DS.

What it do:
It takes a Color Gameboy backup file and it converts it to an installable CIA for your 3DS with CFW. It does all in a one single program.

Features:

• VC GBC injection into a CIA
• Easy made custom colored 3D banner
• Easy made custom text/footer banner
• Easy made ingame frame injection
• Easy made whole process!

Requeriments: Microsoft .NET framework 4.5

Tutorial:
You'll just follow the steps in program. But just in case:

Spoiler: Tutorial + screenshots

Step 1:

Spoiler: Rom file selection

Open the program. You'll see this screen:

Press Open GBC File button. It'll prompt you to pick a .gbc file.

For this tutorial I'll pick the spanish edition of Pokémon Gold.

When you pick a rom you'll be able to go to Step 2 (icon and name).

Step 2:

Spoiler: VC game icon and name

This is the Step 2 main screen:

All the fields are explained in the info boxes, but let me know if something doesn't understand.

Complete the fields making the most legit as possible (if you want to). For example:

I used a title screen screenshot in it's original size as icon (the program will automatically stretch it).

When you complete all the fields you'll able to go to Step 3 (3d banner).

Step 3:

Spoiler: VC GBC 3D banners

This is the Step 3 main screen:

Note: The program will load some default values (based on those in Step 2), but you can anyway replace these default values with ohter ones.
Example: if you want the icon and 3D banner to have different images, then first complete Step 2 with the icon image that you want and then complete Step 3 with the banner image that you want. Otherwise if you are too lazy or you want the same standard as legit VC CIA, leave it as is.

For this example, I'll let the same image as the icon, but I'll change the banner color for a golden one. To do this, just press Change frame color button and pick a color.

There is a crappy preview of the banner color. The real one will be in 3D!

Also, I'll edit the bottom banner text, adding the release data (in spanish).
You can change the font type, size, and brightness. Also there's a preview of this text banner (ignore the red borders, they won't be there in the console).

Doing my changes for this example:

When you complete or modify all the fields you'll able to go to Step 4 (VC parameters).

Step 4:

Spoiler: VC parameters

This is the Step 4 main screen:

(ignore that info box, it's not actually very explanatory)
​

In this screen you can make the game full screen (as long as you launch the game without holding START or SELECT button).

I was experiencing with the ingame frame. You can select a few frame styles (discover them on your own ). In the future I'll adding the option to import your own frame (it's any 512x256 image), but for now I add some basic ones.

For this example I don't want the full screen mod, but I'll pick a non-purple colored frame, picking a light blue color for the frame (because I want to and I can ). This is the result:

There's some things I didn't say, but I think they're self-explanatory (If no, let me know!).

Once we have everything ready, press Finish button.

That's it! The program will prompt where to save the CIA file and It took some seconds to create it.
When the CIA is ready, the program will tell you.

Then you can install the CIA in sdcard using any CIA manager (I use the new FBI).

About source code, TODO, changelog, etc: For now I'll just read this thread and make changes acording to the best for all. The code will be released much later; I'm planing to do a serie of VC injectors... If a new version is out, I'll make a changelog in this OP.

Download link: MEGA

Enjoy!

Can you add the option to create them in .3ds?
PD: Same problem with Windows 7 Ultimate and Microsoft .NET framework 4.5
