ROM Hack RELEASE NSC_Builder. Nintendo Switch Cleaner and Builder. (Game+updates+dlc in a single xci)

[Plunt]

Well I say tomorrow but here it is:
https://github.com/julesontheroad/NSC_BUILDER/releases/tag/v0.85

Love the new multi-multi mode, I was running behind on a bunch of updates and this worked great. I however wasn't able to get it to work with auto mode. It just creates one xci with all the games/updates/dlc. Not sure if there was a setting somewhere I missed.

Also just a side note, the window title is showing v0.83 instead of 0.85

Ah I forgot to change it, well I'll do a b version later since I also did a small fix on python.
For the auto mode you need to open the bat and change the way it works in the options ->auto mode, folder repack.

@JRoad Great job like always, big thanks

Question about "Delta removal mode now rebuilds by cnmt order and create cnmt.xml files".
Do I understand correct:
Now I can rebuild the missing xml files (needed for XCI-Explorer) ?
That would be awesome.
Is the Super-XCI-Trimmer keeping or deleting the xml-files ?

Heyyyyy JRoad thank you so muchhh for your amazing work done to this community!!! People like you should be winning Nobel prizes for granting us the privilege of playing!
Thanks aside for now, JRoad, could you pleeease give me a little hand?
I’m having troubles trying to convert Cuphead + Update into a single xci file. I get the: NameError: name ’ccount’ is not defined. This error is bugging me out, i’m afraid this persits to other games. Sorry for bothering your amazing job, but i just couldn’t find any help anywhere else (also I don’t know sh** about Progamming stuff).
Again, I’m very very very gratefull for your incredible work!

Yes, the delta-removal one skips updates, while the rebuild one rebuild everything.Basically I was asked for it, the cnmt order while irrelevant you could say is Nintendo standardized orders, you can see for example how scene-xcis have their nca order that way.
Again, this is totally irrelevant for installation and won't really press an advantage but will add the xmlz reorder the nca an use a normal size header instead of a fixed 8kb one for compatibility with old tools.
All the xci functions skip the xml files, the reason is xcis never use xml files and even xci-explorer will read properly a xci without them.
Another notes xci explorer can't read nsps with multiple cnmt.xml files, it would've need to add only the predominant one which would've give false data.
The idea of the supertrimmer is mostly for people that installs xci since they will have only untouch ncas and only what blawar's tinfoil installs so they can install them without activating unsigned code.

In the new version? I probably missed something since I changed a lot this time here and there.I'll try to fix it at night, should be an easy fix.
Thanks for letting me know.

Is there something wrong using "7" (to rebuild nsp by cnmt order) to get a new NSP including XML ?


It's listing the XML file durcing the build process, but a check with file info shows that the new result-file has non.


I used the new 0.85 but the top still shows 0.83

I'll check later. I did test it but since I did changes here and there in several functions i could've messed up something when changing other thing. I'll check later with the same game to be sure.

I think is the new version, i dowloaded the first link yesterday at night.
Btw thanks for the support!

 

[Spuddelkopf]

Great Tool! I've been using it for quite some time! THX!

But i have one question... so far i could convert every .nsp to xci
Anyone tried to convert "swords of ditto" (with the update); i can merge both .nsp to one xci
but when launching (SX OS 2.7.1 beta; Emunand 7.0.1) the screen stays black

Anybody with the same result? so far i could convert everything fine (even with updates)
this is the first "problem"

@ChurrosBacon @18Phoenix
Test this please.
https://github.com/julesontheroad/NSC_BUILDER/releases/tag/v0.85b
18Phoenix -> I think your issue is related to a flag i have in the rebuilder that was being used by NSCB by accident.
ChurrosBacon -> Not sure what your issue is, it didn't happen to me but i changed something yesterday after the release that could be related to that.

BTW now it says v0.85 XD

Yep, you can add them to a xci, though there is a version from japan that includes all the languages as the european version does.

Thanks! I did it and it's working! I didn't use the Japanese version because I think that version doesn't have Spanish. That's my first language.

It has, the one that doesn't have it is the Asia one. FF X\X-2 has 3 versions with different ids.

The Japanese is this one:
FINAL FANTASY X X-2 HD Remaster (Japan) - titleid: 0100B3600AE9A000
Language string: En,Jp,Fr,De,Es,It

Asia version is:
FINAL FANTASY X X-2 HD Remaster (Asia) - titleid: 0100FE500D0CA000
Language string: En,Jp,Kr,Tw,Ch

The japanese one is less known than the Asia or Europe\USA one but as the Asia version includes both games in the same cartridge and in this case it has spanish.

@ChurrosBacon @18Phoenix
Test this please.

Thanks, but still no xml in the target-file.
But yes, now it's 0.85

Works perfect - GREAT.
(Last time there was no target file at all, so I check the old file again thinking that it has been changed.)
Thanks a lot - so my beloved XCI Explorer will always work from now on.

Hurra

 

[18Phoenix]

"Repaired" a huge number of NSP files (UPD+DLC) - work all fine with xml now.
AWESOME

ception: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()
The system cannot find the file C:\Users\PC\Downloads\switch\SWITCH.
The system cannot find the file C:\Users\PC\Downloads\switch\SWITCH.


is this normal ?

EDIT: the programme files need to be in this directory /SWITCH it seeems

hi i'm having the same no lens problem, but not the the system cannot find the file part, could you say how you fixed that?

Hey i could try it just now! Thanks for the reply, i still can't install cuphead. When i convert just the game it says Exception: object of type 'NoneType' has no len() and that is it. When i try to convert the game plus the update, now in multipack of curse, it just makes an UNKNOWN [] . xci 62kbs file, smalller than the update itself. i even tried changing the names of the files.
i don't know, the game played just fine as nsp in my switch, probably is just my crazy pc doing crazy fuc*** up sh** kkkk. But thanks for your kind help!

 

[gizmomelb]

just curious.. what differences (if any) are there between NSP and XCI data layout?

Are NSP files essentially compressed like install files and XCI is uncompressed, ready to run?

Could a theoretical XCI spoofer attach to an NSP and then allow NSPs to be played directly, without installation?

thank you.

 

[ChurrosBacon]

Hey i tried converting more games overnight and as expected of your amazing work, they worked great, even the big ones like Smash plus update and dlcs.
I think only two other games, like The Duck Game got the same kind of error, which proves the problem is on the files itself probably, not your progam, of course.
But anyway, any ideia of what are these games lacking or a way of me solving it? If it isn’t bothering too much!
THX again!!!

The cuphead thing is because you are missing the master_key_07

More or less there is a dirty way to achieve that if you don't mind installing tickets and still needs SX loader, that's kinda why I prefer to generate a new file since conversion times are good nowadays.

Thanks for the info, yeah you've already seen and replied on the discord.. it would be nice to have an app all users could use - it would certainly stop the offhand comments of seeing XCI USB loading as useless.
