Here's a tip: Don't run a .bat file and run the actual .jar file so you get full cmd output.

Also, make sure you're referring to the usage guide.

How do I use it?​


Setup​

To use this, you'll a folder which contains a "code", "content" and "meta" folder. Make sure that the content folder is not empty.

Optional:
To save you some typing you can also create a text file "encryptKeyWith" which contains the common key as hexstring (32 characters). This will be used to encrypt the encryption key.

Pack files​

To pack files, you can use these arguments:

-in ; is the dir where you have your decrypted data. Make this pointing to the root folder with the folder code,content and meta.
-out ; Where the installable package will be saves

(optional! will be parsed from app.xml if missing)
-tID ; titleId of this package. Will be saved in the TMD and provided as 00050000XXXXXXXX
-OSVersion ; target OS version
-appType ; app type
-skipXMLParsing ; disables the app.xml parsing

(optional! defaults values will be used if missing (or loaded from external file))
-encryptionKey ; the key that is used to encrypt the package
-encryptKeyWith ; the key that is used to encrypt the encryption key

In most cases the following command will be totally fine. (make sure to have a valid app.xml)

java -jar NUSPacker.jar -in "inputDir" -out "outputDir"

Without common key stored in file.

java -jar NUSPacker.jar -in "inputDir" -out "outputDir" -encryptKeyWith 12345678123456781234567812345678

The thing is, my .bat file runs the .jar program and i can see what its doing in cmd. it just wont give me any results, it says its compressing every file aswell, but once im finished, its just a blank file

Indeed. Only other thing I can think of is the output directory has a space in it without quotes? I do not know if it would error about arguments if so.

I know that it says invalid, but another thread i read said that the filled in key with the 1337 repeating is fine and it should be working

Lets try something then. ZIP your Content, Common, and Meta folders and upload them here. Then I'll run it myself to see if the same thing happens. (If that's allowed anyways)

If so, then that means something's wrong with the files you're using.
Alright i can do that, though it will take a while for the zip to upload to my google drive

Before you actually try to send it I have to ask- What are you trying to pack? If it's something like a game, then you can't upload it here as that'd be considered Warez.
Oh, duh. Im trying to pack a copy of Mario 3D world because i made a bad call and bought a japanese wii u over a NA one. so im trying to make a copy that will still boot on my wii u, but with english text.

Oh, just use Tiramisu or Aroma for region free and download the game over NUSspli or WiiUDownloader instead of trying to pack it. You've been doing this the overcomplicated way.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

    So MJ no longer wants to play with it?

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
