ROM Hack [RELEASE] HANSHelper

[VegaRoXas]

Hey fellow users. I have created a little tool which helps you using HANS (or generally romhacking).
For now it's only able to extract exe-/romfs files dumped for example with braindump by @neobrain.
I'll of course add some more features, just tell me what you would like and I'll try my best. Originally this was just for me because I wanted a simpler way to extract those files. But I thought why not release it? So maybe this could become a big tool with your help.

ctrtool by neimod and 3DSGuy.

Building .romfs files is now implemented! Code based on @SciresM's code.

I'd also like to know how this works. Also would it be possible to implement deleting the first 1000 bytes after building the modified romFS?

Sry I can't help you with that.

Well you just start it and follow what it says. I may be able to record a video.

Cooh, I'd love to see a video on how to do this!

 

[VegaRoXas]

Uploaded a video, it is currently being processed.

Would a feature to make a HANS shortcut to go w/ the edited rom be feasable?

 

[TamDanny]

For a notepad kind of video, it's a pretty good one. Thanks for the explanation!
