3DS Mii Edit Tool

By using this tool you are responsible of any data lost,
so please keep a backup of your CFL_DB.dat file.

I've been working on this for some time and I think it's ready to be shared.

This was made with VisualStudio, so it NEEDS .NET Framework (4) to work.

What will this tool let me edit?
  • Name/Author (You can use special characters from DS/DSi/PictoChat/Wii/3DS).
  • Favorite color.
  • Gender.
  • Birthday.
  • Change its "Favorite", "Sharing" and "Allow Copying" properties.
  • Set its specialness (keep in mind that a Mii can't be special and have "sharing" on at the same time as it will crash Mii Maker).

What else will it let me do? (glad you ask)
  • Take ownership of any Mii (so you can edit them).
  • Set any Mii as your personal Mii (this will swap any Mii you want with you personal Mii).
  • Delete a Mii (because... why not?).
  • Export Miis from CFL_DB.dat to a file (*.3dsmii).
  • Import Miis from a file (*.3dsmii) to your CFL_DB.dat.

Features that will be implemented:
  • A full "Mii Maker" that will let you edit your Mii's appearance (this is already being worked on).
  • Import Miis from .mae/.mii files (Wii Miis).
  • Allow you to create a new Mii.

This tools was made to work with a "CFL_DB.dat" file, which can be dumped using JKSM (Shared ExtData > F000000B > Export) and restored with the same tool (Shared ExtData > F000000B > Import), alternatively you can use extdata_dump

IMPORTANT:
Miis are not saved in real-time, to keep the changes you've made you need to press the "Save changes made to Mii" before selecting another one, and after you've finished editing everything you need to press either "Save CFL_DB.dat as..." or "Save and overwrite...".

Miis are know saved in real-time, the only thing you need to do is save the CFL_DB.dat file to keep any change made.

I (personally) think the GUI is intuitive enough and the options are self-explanatory, but any question feel free to ask.

Oh, and by the way: it supports UTF-16.

Will be updated soon, have a nice day.

Keep up the good work, this looks great! It reminds me of that old web based Wii mii editor, I can't remember the name for sure, but it had all the appearance editing tools, etc.

can I put as special my personal mii?

Yes, you can. But keep in mind that you cannot turn "Sharing" ON if the Mii is special (even tho Mii maker will let you do it) if you do so Mii Maker will crash and rollback to CFL_OldDB.dat (which is a copy of your last working CFL_DB.dat).

So I can make my mii without a name and as my personal mii? :P
Click to expand...
Oh my, thanks for mentioning that. Totally forgot to check if the name entered had at least one character...

If your Mii has a empty name (and by empty I mean zeroed) Mii Maker/Friend List will say that it's corrupted, but you can name it like " " (blank space) and guess what?

I updated the program, these are the changes made:
  • It won't let you enter an empty string as a Name (as it will "corrupt" your Mii)
  • It know saves changes automatically in real-time (aside from name/author) thus avoiding the need for a "Save this Mii button".

You still need to save CFL_DB.dat.

I can't edit the name of a special mii. I'm trying to make it blank. Whenever I save, it says it saves, then I load it back onto the editor, and it isn't saved. Is this a bug?

It was a bug, it wasn't saving correctly (actually it wasn't saving at all). It had nothing to do with the Mii being special aaaaaaaaand it should be fixed now (tested it a lot).... sorry for the inconvenience. :wacko:
 
When I tried to change the name of my personal mii, the mii app decided I have to create a new personal mii (it left another mii intact however), so I guess it got corrupted somehow.
I did give it a non-empty name, but the creator string was empty, if that is somehow related.
Anyway I managed to get rid of my personal mii with a typo, so I'm good, thanks for the program!
