These are actual encrypted roms, did you have one of these roms and are you working on RomFS Explorer's ability to view encrypted switch rom files?

I doubt he is a wizard or works for Nintendo EPD. He's not going to be able to parse encrypted data in a meaningful way without one of the aforementioned conditions.

This is fantastic, we can use this to eventually create game mods!

Looking at you MK8D and BOTW.

That's all informations we can get with the leaked BigBlueBox keys from an *.XCI file for now... Data can't be decrypted without other keys and we don't have them for now.
I have to improve the UI and I release a new version soon. (And I change the name btw).

Thanks to Peteruk, Falo for precious informations, and SwitchBrew.org too.

Sorry for my dumb question, but what exactly is this for?

Extracting game files from .istorage files.

Please consider making this cross platform (use something like Qt). In the 3DS/WiiU hacking era, way too many tools were made in C# with extremely high .NET requirements which made hacking a difficult nightmare for people on Mac and Linux.

 

[Raffdeblois41]

WHAT ?! not for XCI files ?

 

[Soluble]

It'll come once we have all the keys. As with Ac_k's post above.

 

[Deleted User]

how do i find .istorage files?

You can make things cross platform with C#, they just have to make sure it's mono based. People like using WinForms since it's so simple and quick but it can be used in a cross-platform way.

I'm back with a little teasing...
I know many people thinks GUI it's not a good solution to do that, but anyway I do it...
I rename "Switch RomFS Explorer" to "Switch ToolBox", I don't know where I can going with that, I just want to do a tool with many function as possible (instead of many different tools". All Files plugins and tools inside Switch ToolBox are separated C# DLL and I'll provide a template for anyone want make a plugin or a tool.
Anyway, I "port" PegaSwitch from NodeJS to C#, there is many things to do before I can support all PegaSwitch NodeJS functions, but It's work. I'm able to load NRO to my switch just with one button, I'm able to load a JS script just with one button. I don't know how the Homebrew Launcher of Plutoo will work, but right now it's really much easier than a Linux + NodeJS and so many command (for a simple user).

That's all for me now. I have so many things to improve before any release. I have many different ideas too.

Sounds and looks good mate, keep up the good work.

 

[Wexos]

Which algorithm did you use for the swizzling?

 

[WiiuGold]

Keep up the great work.. Can't wait to try it ..

 

[MK73DS]

I hope you'll make it opensource soon, this tool looks very promising !

 

[blahh]

i'm a c# developer and would love to help port to dotnetcore for cross platform support and/or help port pegaswitch.

either way awesome job.

also how did you know the format of the iStorage and the contained files? is all of that already known from DS (same formats)?
