the problem is that I do not have a 3ds :( I use citra, in Brazil it's not possible to buy one now, it's expensive and there's no more pokemon games, sorry for my bad english
I am from Brazil too I have a 3ds pity it is a old version referred to o3ds or old3ds. If you were close by I would help you in getting a 3ds

Thanks for this great software :)
Could you please make it download by default big files (i.e not having to confirm download everytime for big files). Thanks mate!
Thanks, I'll consider it :yay3ds:. Also I've just started working on the new download feature yesterday, it'll be more better than the original, hopefully with built-in full speed, multi threaded, pause/resumable download tasks and queue support.
hey @tranxuanthang how can I use this I've tried to download ok downloaded it fine but whenever I try to unzip or extract here... on desktop it throws me an error saying: Could not open the archive as [7z]compacted archive
Headers Error.
What do I do and thanks for this tool can't wait to use this.
I've tried windows 32bit and 64bit package from Drive, newest 007 version, it extracted fine without any errors, so maybe your file has been corrupted when downloading? Could you try to download it again?
And I'm using an o3ds too, it's not pity at all.

The only pity in o3ds it's that exclusive games only for new3ds doesn't works for o3ds forcing us owners of old 3ds to buy a new3ds like xenoblade's series and some others games. I was using a download manager to get the files maybe it's on firefox end. Will try again and report.

Some news: I'm still working on a new update. The new built-in download manager will be a lot better and more reliable. It can pause, resume, and recover downloads from unexpectedly application close, connection lost, power lost,etc.. The speed will also be much higher(in below picture, 3.5MB/s compare to 1.1MB/s of previous version, on the same internet), with more accurate speed calculation.

It is really cool!!
I've always been waiting for something like this.

by the way Where is the DLC?
It is convenient, but there are some limitations. (Like Freeshop)
Is there an option to enter titleid directly?
Also, Korean or Taiwan titles are not found.
Sorry for a slow reply. I somehow missed your post :P
You can search the titleID in the searchbar. Another way is (still exprimenting) go to some URL from browser, for example villain3ds://0004000000174100
I'll check the korea and taiwan region titles later. And I've never installed any dlcs before, but I think you can get the dlcs by searching the game's name and finding anything has 'dlc' type.

You can take your time on the baked in download manager. I downloaded USUM with this on IDM, 10-11 minutes per game, I really appreciate that. Thanks once again for this program.

Help! When I try to download a game it says encTitleKey:Failed
You need to declare the url to "enctitlekeys.bin" file first. In the main window, click the cog icon button to open config section, then you can input the url. You can get that URL at the famous title keys site.

Downloaded the latest version for my Win7 32bits ("Villain3DS-win32-ia32"), but after a few seconds the software just crashes. Obviously the other Windows version, for 64bits, gives an alert saying its not compatible with the system. Maybe Im missing something, like the correct .NET Framework version? Mine is 4.5 at least, maybe needs 4.7?

(Im also Brazilian and just wanted to share with the world that the New2DSXL costs around $350 USD here)

Unfortunately I had to remove this qrcode feature from v0.0.3 because it leads to urls are not allowed. But don't worry, I have plan to bring this qrcode feature back in the near future, if people still need it.

I'll check later in the morning. It's 2am right now #_#. And you don't need any aditional requirements to run this app. You can try any older version to see if it works or not.

(I feel sorry for you. I can even buy a Switch or PS4 with that $350 here)

sadly since there is no qr code i cannot download games that are 2gb+ since I have to copy it first to my sd card then install it which doubles the space it takes

Ok, trying it now, if anything changes I will let you know. Go take your deserved rest.

EDIT: Ok, Im dumb. After trying all versions with same results (crash, crashing faster if I tried to open the settings), I noticed the .exe doesnt have the administrator icon on its corner by default. So I right clicked -> run as administrator and it stopped crashing.

Sorry for the trouble.

I'll place the qrcode feature on a higher piority. In the meanwhile you might need freeShop, Shameless or other solutions. Sorry and thank you for trying this app @OMGancho.

This app doesn't need to run as administrator by default. So I think it's because you extracted the app at 'program files' folder, or any folder that requires administrator privilege, or the app is trying to read/write any file that requires administrator privilege to access.
