U can change the title ID, the name of the nsp and the author too and the icon too. Your GUI is good but not for noob
This GUI is for people who have a basic knowledge about switch formats. Not for noobs, but not just for expert developers.U can change the title ID, the name of the nsp and the author too and the icon too. Your GUI is good but not for noob
i created a custom nsp, and installed it without issues, i did not specify a LOGO [png + gif] I'm assuming this is why my game crash when I launch it?
Strange then. Oh well, I'll keep trying and see what is going on.
The game is generated, but once installed it crash right away, and the system ask if i want to check for the games corrupted data.
Guys, I released a new update to NSPack, a big one!
NSPack - simple NSP package and NCA content builder
Updated to v0.2, Many things changed!
Hi everyone! Ready to build some custom NSPs or NCAs?
NSPack is a simple GUI tool to build NSP packages and NCA contents, using an embedded hacPack executable.
This GUI is 100% legal as it just uses hacPack.
Using the builder
There are some basic elements you need to provide at least to be able to make a NSP:
You can also save the assets as a asset file (*.nsxml format) if you are going to use that as a template for making NSPs.
Planned stuff
This is still a beta version, as much other stuff is planned:

This GUI is 100% legal as it just uses hacPack.
Using the builder
There are some basic elements you need to provide at least to be able to make a NSP:
- Title ID: 16 hex characters (example: 0100CAFE1234BEEF) - any title ID should work.
- Name: the title's name, which will be the same for all the languages.
- Author: the author/developer's name, which will also be the same for all the languages.
- Version: the version string (1.0.0, 2.0beta1), limited to 16 characters.
- Product code: a simple code string (SMO's product code: LA-H-AAACA), no matter what does it have.
- ExeFS directory: any title needs to have a ExeFS, which contains the compiled source code and the metadata NPDM.
- Icon: provide any icon, as it will be resized to 256x256, otherwise the defaut one will be used. It's recommended to use an image which is 256x256 or bigger.
- RomFS: the directory containing extra files for the title.
- Logo: the custom PNG and GIF images which are shown when booting a title.
- Important / IPNotices / Support HTML: this three are legal information HTML documents, which can be accessed from the home menu.
- Offline HTML: this HTML documents are useless when making homebrew NSPs, but can be used (if you know how) to make your own video players...
- Screenshots: Will the title allow taking screenshots?
- Video: Will the title allow recording gameplay?
- User account: Will the title ask for a user account when booting it?
You can also save the assets as a asset file (*.nsxml format) if you are going to use that as a template for making NSPs.
Planned stuff
This is still a beta version, as much other stuff is planned:
- Allow to load NACP files directly
- Direct conversion from NRO to NSP, or any easy way to create NRO forwarders
- Conversion from XCI to NSP
- Add updates or add-on content support
- GitHub project (Brew.NET): https://github.com/XorTroll/Brew.NET
- Releases of the project: https://github.com/XorTroll/Brew.NET/releases
- README for credits and more info: https://github.com/XorTroll/Brew.NET/blob/master/README.md

ChangeLog (0.1.1 -> 2.0)
- Fixed Offline HTML and custom logo, they didn't work properly work
- Huge UI redesign, now with a gray-purple theme!
- Added NCA building support, for control, program, legalinfo and offline NCA types
- Added new NSP options: screenshot, video capture, startup user account
- Fixed data size and data journal size, now building retail games should work
IMPORTANT!
- Installing and running NSPs can get you banned. Although this NSPs are not titlekey-encrypted (ovbiously), using them can be dangerous.
- If the NSP doesn't run on your console, it can be for various reasons: used a title ID which is smallet than the NPDM's max title ID, not using a correct key generation...
- Don't try building titles which ask for a user, because they could fail as generated NSPs don't ask for a user.
- For the build process the program creates a temporary directory on the same folder as the EXE. Don't try messing up with that folder or deleting it while the NSP making process, because it could crash the program. Anyway, reopening the program should reset the directory.
- As this program is made using WPF, it won't probably work on any other OSs but Windows (Wine supports WinForms but doesn't support WPF)
@XorTroll I was trying your pack last night for the first time I didn’t even know it existed. I put everything in correctly I like the design by the way but when I click on build nsp package it just crashes at the end with "NSPack tool simple NSP package builder has stopped working" I'm sure I'm putting everything in correctly also do I need the html documents are they necessary?
Also the keys file does it take dat, ini or simply txt format? or all three will work.
Apart from getting it going I luv what you have done with the gui I think it’s great I’m just very surprised this has not had more attention for your hard work, it’s quite clear you have put many hours into making this.

Hi all
Are there any command line switches than can be used to launch NSPack?
I would like to setup a batch file that launches NSpack, selects the build NSP option, loads an assels file and automatically selects a prod.keys file.
Is this possible?
Thanks.
