The ticket is what allows it to show up on your home menu, and it isn't a valid ticket (if by valid ticket you mean from bought content).I understand that. But do they have their own ticket? When you uninstall a game that dumped from your own cart, and it says delete cia and ticket, is that a valid ticket or not?
What program are you using? Are you using GodMode9 from the 3DS?Why is it a cart dump of *.3ds can do a simple cia convert when I try a 'Citra' *.3ds, it won't work? ALL my CIA's are cart dumps, but my son's classmates has citra roms (I assume for 3ds emu on pc). I'm trying to help them convert to CIA.
*I use the simple drag/drop (got program about 2 years ago).
TIA!
Try using GodMode9. https://3ds.guide/godmode9-usage look under convert 3ds to cia. You may have to update their consoles to the latest CFW.3dsconv (single file app 2016), I am not using godmode9. Some of their 3ds's are from the browser hack and current. I don't mess with dloaded carts, so I never tried to convert a citra 3ds file (emu cart) to CIA. Forgive me if I am not using right name/term for the emu name All I want to do is help them so that they do not screw up their 3ds units.

extension .ciaIm definitely a newbie around here. Recently installed cfw on my n3dsxl with the awesome 3ds.guide and have had no issue installing and running many games. However i have found cia updates and dlc for games. When i go to install them via fbi, the only options i get are "delete, rename, copy & paste". Nothing about installing the cia like i normally would with full game titles.
Im probably missing something really obvious, but would appreciate some guidance.
Many thanks!
Use GodMode9 to dump the cartridge as a cia, and FBI to install it. It won't be a legit cia, only preinstalled games can be made into legit cias.Hello, I've been looking but I can not find anything similar, imagine a case where you have a cartridge (used) and you want to give it away, but you want to make a CIA of the cartridge only for your console, in this case which option is more advisable , regular or legitimate?
Oh, thanks you,you helped meUse GodMode9 to dump the cartridge as a cia, and FBI to install it. It won't be a legit cia, only preinstalled games can be made into legit cias.
oh, ok! thank you very much! I just don't understand the "legit means it passes the ofw checks after install" part, but im guessing it means it will be fine and will still be playable in original firmware, right?any legit cias on the console will continue to work. legit means it passes the ofw checks after install.
oh and would i have to install them again or not?any legit cias on the console will continue to work. legit means it passes the ofw checks after install.
