have you still got the 1.1.0 patch file? i would love to have it too.
 
Is there a good alternative at this point? I have packed many XCIs and it sometimes:

1. Generates bad XCIs
2. Corrupt XCIs that can be detected on start
3. Corruption that needs the Switch's check corruption to be used

Usually I have to install to check the XCI I generated but I would prefer a tool that converts without introducing issues 1-3.

Unfortunately no. I've looked everywhere and nothing works. SAK stopped working as well and has been abandoned.


NSC_Builder still works, but has many issues. I've found combining XCI files is swimming in treacherous waters. Splitting SuperXCI files is tempting fate.

SuperNSPs still work for combining, but for splitting SuperNSPs, one needs to use legacy mode.

Yeah gave up on it too. Ended up just settling for NSP folders. Would be pissed if XCI loading on an hdd would eventually come out again
 
How can i get Interface.bat to show actual informations from ALL my games? It works for some games and for others it doesn't. Sometimes it shows only the game icon, sometimes not even that. Is there something i can do or it's expected for some repacked, converted or less "clean" nsps to behave that way?

I was able to make everything work, just needed updated keys.


My only doubt now is how i set a custom compression level? The terminal says to go in config but when i go in the zconfig folder i only find unrelated stuff + NSCB_options.cmd, which seems what i'm looking for but if i open it it closes instantly. How do i do it?

The best is 8: Compression mode > add NSP > 1: Start processing > 1: Compress > 7: Hard (Unthreaded) Level 22 _ no threads.

9: User value is configurable via main menu 0: Configuration mode > 2: Global options > 15 NSZ Compression User Preset > put your level here (19 for example) > put your CPU threads here (4 for example), and press any key to save them.

If you are sure the option 8 (compression level 22) is the best then i'll just do that. But wasn't level 19 the best? Read somewhere else that with a higher level it might be required more than 1 GB of RAM so i can't install in applet mode. As long as i can install nszs through USB it's still good to me tho (always did in applet mode so idk if it's possible)
 
@GilFrog
In "Title mode" even LVL 22 will be fine. :) Level 19 is faster but has lower compress ratio. It's up to you of course. You may even try nsz by nicoboss with it's proper Block Compression Mode w/level 22. It's like lightning super-duper-puper fast, esp. on a modern 8-16-32-64-∞ threaded CPUs. :gun:

My PC is really old but if it's that good i might try the nicoboss converter. Thank you for the infos!

How do people install nsz files in docked mode? Do you transfer the files first with DBI or just use an USB A - A cable? DBI transfers are kinda slow but at least i don't have to turn off the console
 
My prod keys isnt working even after renaming it. I used the ryujinx prod keys, the program says that there is a missing file being "leys.txt". Can you help me? I used the NSC builder from julesontheroad.

hi all, I've problems merging games+update with maser key 21, someone else ?

Make sure you have the latest prod.keys. I haven't had any issues with MERGING NSPs > SuperNSP (multicontent NSP), but make certain to keep the original backups as when there's new updates you won't be able to update the multicontent NSP w/ NSC_Builder or SAK reliably. You also can't split multicontent NSPs with NSC_Builder. The feature exists in the app, but the files get corrupted. :(

NSC_Builder is the app/script of the century that desperately needs an update

This is the error I have merging game [v0] and update [V65536] that has master key 21. For sure I have correct keys (no problem using emulator). The problem is only when the update has key 21.
 
It's impossible to merge files NSP or XCI that are using master key 21.0. the error i always
