I used this for a long time to repackage The Witcher 3, and not only did it reduce the size with the update, but it also fixed an issue that caused an error when using a Super XCI with the Update.

@theskid

are you using the latest release or do you pull a copy from the main repo?
Have you uses the key template txt then rename it ?

you can go to 0 config menu and 4 force update nutdb

thanks for that but is there anything else i can use to say split them into 2 xci files instead of multiple 4gb files if i have a 35_gb xci file?

If a game is above 32 GB the only option is to combined it into a nsp and install if instead, its a sxos and hos limitation until they
1. release a 64 GB cartridge
2. leak an updated SDK
3. someone one to update sxos

which is very unlikely

You can dump eshop games to nsp then convert them to xci

but i have a system, run in stock mode, download your games, backup your NAND > dump your eshop games while offline mode > once done restore your backup you made before

so your logs remain clean

I gave up using SXOS and switched to Hekate+Atmo, because some few first games will not work with FW 11 (because of needing newer SDK) and much more will come like under garantee Metroid Dread.
Instead of using 2 emuNAND I just gave up and said Bye to XCI.
Copying on SD or immediately installing them on SD (using DBI with simple drag'n'drop) needs the same time.
Especially with SXOS not able to use the USB3 speed.

Try downloading the repo as zip from the main page instead of using the latest release (click the green Code button and select Download ZIP). It should fix the titledb issue and it also supports a new master key

If it still doesn't work, make sure to run install_dependencies.bat

Interface.bat does not work for me when downloading this version from the main page...
Many files are missing from the ztools folder...

@JRoad

New titles such as Lost in Random, Last Stop & No More Heroes (eShop Version) couldn't be read properly on the Interface, nor could be compressed to NSZ due to a new storage format change.
The updates are fine though.

Also, the cartridge version of Fuuraiki 4 can't be read on the Interface, nor compressed to NSZ/converted to an NSP file - as the dumped XCI file have a Game Base + Update imbricated together.
The game could be installed with the last version of Tinfoil since today and the dump seems correct.

Is something is possible for updating NSC_Builder in the future - for adding the support of those files/games ?

Thanks for your attention on my question.
