Homebrew Question nsp/nca to xci?

[The14thfly]

Stupid question probably but what are the chances of getting a converter that converts to xci. I heard someone say that xci files contained nsp/nca files with some other stuff. So would it be possible to convert to xci?

And excuse me if I'm misinformed.

If it would be possible, we would had done it already and people would be playing eshop games on SXOS.

Not possible. Yet.

I'm not asking if it's possible yet, I'm asking if it can be done or if not, why not?

I want to learn.

i seen somewhere "
Eshop Games. Layer of Fear and Brawlout [Only works with LayerFS]

Hiii everybody its my first dumps for all of you! !!!!MORE GAMES SOON!!!!

this contains Exefs folder and romfs.bin of Layer of Fear. only works with layerfs method to load backups. The title works with mario+rabbis as donor."

so some Eshops works ? and can be playable no ? obviously there's not a simple way to do else everyone would have more hundreds backup games more, but the question wasn't so stupid

I think the op is asking how to convert to xci
Not run crappy layerfs

converting Nsp to Xci is a good solution for using eshop game whith SxOs and protect the console from secure ban....
From what I understand it is only necessary to develop a tool that does it,
I do not think it is not possible to do it NSP and NCA are similar and inside XCI there are stored NCA...
I think because the developer community does not like SXOS will never be realized.

The way NSPs are packaged are something like this "/romfs" etc nsp and xci are different romfs iir so it would not be possible, mods close this now
