Oh, damn

I'm wondering, which pk3ds version are you using? I went to teamcity for my build, but the options turn gray when I load a UM save.

 

[UrbanBanchou]

no

Is there a tutorial that explains how to do that process of unpacking patching a repack, or a tool please?

It requires both Exefs and Romfs extracted from the games, it can be done using Godmode9, just search a cia file and mount it and extract both folders to root of the SD,
Once it's done plug your SD into the computer, copy both to Pk3DS folder and make a new folder named Ultra Moon to place both folders inside it,
Now you can load the contents from the folder in Pk3DS.

Thank you, but do the files total over a gigabyte after extraction?

 

[Windylacine]

Thank you, but do the files total over a gigabyte after extraction?

for me, that took about 35 minutes to extract romfs then less than a minute to extract exefs while in godmode9

No outline patch for Ultra Sun.

I literally opened the .ips file for the patch for Sun and Ultra Moon in an Hex Editor and I compared the differences and used that to edit the Ultra Moon patch to work for Ultra Sun.

Mind explaining how you did it?

I can confirm this works

You can use PKhex for that.

 

[Wicked13]

You can use PKhex for that.

You can add it to the thread if you want?

I'm not worried about the time it takes, but the space it takes is an issue; I don't want to corrupt my SD.

I literally changed a byte in the .ips file in a hex editor.

For example, I changed:

50 41 54 43 48 32 E2 B8
00 04 00 F0 20 E3 45 4F
46 (Ultra Moon)

to

50 41 54 43 48 32 E2 B4
00 04 00 F0 20 E3 45 4F
46 (Ultra Sun)

I read that Ultra Sun is literally a -4 byte difference to Ultra Moon and used that to make the patch.

if you don't want to extract a GB of content, just extract Exefs instead, try to see if it works without romfs in pk3DS.
