Just use decrypt9WIP to convert the ROM itself. No need for a PC anymore.
This feature was added in the most recent release.

create a folder at the root called "Decrypt9". games (.3ds, etc) and things like ncchinfo.bin go in this.
so Decrypt9WIP inside of /SD/3DS/ and Decrypt9 inside of root? the .bin, .dat and .nds go in root as well right?
ignore everything except "Decrypt9WIP" (goes in 3ds). you can also put d9logo.bin in "Decrypt9" if you want, which shows an image on the bottom screen.
So this is like...throw the files wherever you want? xD This is what makes it confusing lol
Is there a way to convert from .cia to .3ds? I have a 11.0.0. console and really don't trust myself with hardmoding it. I decided to give up and just buy a Sky3DS Plus which only reads .3ds files. Is there some way I can go from .cia to .3ds?
just copy "Decrypt9WIP" to "3ds", then create a folder at the root called "Decrypt9". things like games and "ncchinfo.bin" go in "Decrypt9". you don't need any of the other files.
not possible, in a way that Sky3DS+ would take it.
Really you don't? could you tell me what was the reason for them to be there? I also downloaded an archive called
Decrypt9 Master that had a ton of folders and random files but didn't have Decrypt9!
this isn't really the right thread for that.....Really you don't? could you tell me what was the reason for them to be there? I also downloaded an archive called

Decrypt9WIP.bin -> for use with a9lh, or some other loaders
Decrypt9WIP.dat -> for use with cakehax (boot manager like ctrbootmanager, or browser)
Decrypt9WIP.nds -> for DS flash carts
Launcher.dat -> for gateway entry points
also you downloaded the wrong thing. just use latest commit.
Ok thanks a lot, sometimes the easiest answers are impossible to find!
You're a good squirrel
Damn that sucks. The only other way was to have an already hacked 3DS, but buying a new one just to hack it would just be more expensive. Anyone know any websites besides ****** for some 3ds roms? Lots of links there are dead.
probably shouldn't mention sites like that. if you can't dump game cards then you'll have to find out how to get them other means.
wow 11.0 firmware, that sucks, I wouldn't waste money on Gateway and just send it to someone to get it hard modded if you can't do it yourself.
Send me a PM maybe I can help find you .3ds in the mean time
After looking at how unnecessarily complicated current CIA converting methods are, I decided to write this tool. It's very simple and doesn't use Python or .NET Framework or any other programs and scripts, just my own code in a single exe file.
I decided to take slightly different approach to keep things simple and only use ExHeader XORpads. They are 1MB each in size and multiple ROM files supported during 'ncchinfo.bin' creation, so you can make xorpads for a bunch of games in one go. With version 4.0 I added ability to patch minimum required kernel version (FW Spoof) and 'RegionFree', which requires *.exefs_norm.xorpad's. 'FW Spoof' function checks FW version game requires to run and only applied if original value exceeds entered (2D02:FW8.0-8.1, 2E02:FW9.0-9.2, 3002:FW9.3, 3102:FW9.5, 3202:FW9.6-9.8).
1) Put your 3DS games into 'roms' folder and press 'Create ncchinfo.bin file' button to create 'ncchinfo.bin' from 3DS ROMs.
2) Use rxTools along with created 'ncchinfo.bin' to generate ExHeader XORpads, put it in root of SD card, launch rxTools and follow 'Decryption Options-->Generate Xorpads'. At the end of process you may see 'Could not open SDinfo.bin!' message. It's okay, just ignore it.
3) Put *.xorpad files you generated on 3DS from SD root into 'xorpads' folder, press 'Convert 3DS ROM to CIA' button, select folder with *.3ds files and wait for program to finish.

hey! thanks for that tool - really easy to use
quick question: ive an o3dsxl and an n3dsxl - now ive made all CIA files with my o3dsxl (the decrypt part) can i now use the CIA files (which i generated with the OLD3DS) on my NEW3DS or do i have to make them for both consoles seperatly?
thanks!
In the homebrew launcher it return to a red screen then back to hbl. I dont know if the comit that can be used to convert roms is included in the decrypt9 I used to install arm9lh.

@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.+1 -

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

@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."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@

Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
