    ROM Hack [Release] Villain3ds - Basically freeShop but runs on your PC

    @tranxuanthang , there seems to be a bug in the integrity verification functionality. An example that can be reproducible is to try to download the DLC for monster hunter stories: it gets stuck on verifying the 00000009 content, as if there were an infinite loop there. I have attached an image...

    ROM Hack [Release] Villain3ds - Basically freeShop but runs on your PC

    You can try what the developer said in the quote above. But first, you have to download the encTitleKeys.bin file to somewhere on your PC, and then copy its location to the URL field in Villain3DS, like in the example he provides.

    ROM Hack [Release] Villain3ds - Basically freeShop but runs on your PC

    You have to input the right URL in the "encTitleKeys.bin URL" textbox in the configuration section of the app. That is why it is giving you that error. Alternatively, I think I saw somebody in this thread, probably the developer himself, saying that you could, additionally, download the...

    ROM Hack [Release] Villain3ds - Basically freeShop but runs on your PC

    @tranxuanthang , take a look, if you can at the repo for Villain3DS. There are some valid issues there: Does villain3ds verifies the integrity of downloaded contents when it finishes downloading them, like Wii U USB Helper used to do? If it doesn't, do you think you could implement an...

    Hacking Alternative to Wii U USB Helper?

    Maybe it's Nintendo pressuring them to make them drop the tools by threatening with legal actions against the developers of tools like this. The author never stated the reason for him dropping the project, aside from "personal" reasons. They (nintendo) may as well be the ones behind the...

    Hacking Alternative to Wii U USB Helper?

    Ok, let me be more specific about that workaround. Yes, you can look up titles, and you can even download from it. But what it cannot do, is fetch updated data. What this means, is that if a new title is released, it won't be picked up. You can test this by trying to look up the USA version of...

    Hacking Alternative to Wii U USB Helper?

    Small correction. He's trying to make it work, he hasn't completed the workaround for Wii U USB Helper. Reasons why I do not use Freeshop: It crashes on my 3DS. A lot. So I had to be careful where and where not to click as I could never find what caused it. Seemed random to me Throughput of...

    Hacking Alternative to Wii U USB Helper?

    Ok, I downloaded Villain3DS. It looks good. I tried downloading a game, but I saw no content integrity verification while it was downloading a small title. Maybe @tranxuanthang could tell us if it has this functionality? Another question: I noticed that this application in particular downloads...

    Hacking Alternative to Wii U USB Helper?

    So, as we all know, this excellent software was discontinued by its creator, citing personal reasons. So now I'm looking for a replacement for this tool so that I can have backups available for some 3DS games when the eShop is closed. I've been looking at some of the tools @cearp has made, like...

    Hacking FBI 2.5.0 Request timed out

    Yeah, was getting timeouts all over, so I stopped using FBI to download games from Nintendo's CDN. I am planning on opening an issue when the next release FBI comes out, because I see there has been a few commits since the last version and maybe he won't be too happy to introduce or fix new...

    Hacking seeddb.bin and offline installation of CIAs

    Thanks :) Btw, I also tried Hydroseed. The tool is awesome since not only it lets you point to an URL that has the seeddb.bin so that it can download it but you can also point to a local file, which is perfect. I gave it a test run and it created the directory structure for FBI to be able to...

    Hacking seeddb.bin and offline installation of CIAs

    Thanks for the reply Ryccardo. Yes, I am also aware that FBI could make use of seeddb.bin, offline installation of seeds, and all that but basically what I wanted to know is if there is some homebrew out there that does the work of outputting the files in the correct format for me. I know not...

    Hacking seeddb.bin and offline installation of CIAs

    Hello, community. I have a question that has to do with the installation and use of seeddb.bin to play some games. I am not sure if this is the correct forum to talk about this; tried visiting other forums and by viewing the topics here it made me think this is the correct sub-forum. If it...

    Hacking [RELEASE] Wii U USB Helper, a small eShop for Windows !

    Thanks, @Hikari06 , for answering my questions. Though I am a bit lost about a "seed" that is required to install some newer titles as you said. Do you know if FBI installs this seed alongside the .cia automatically? Is an error message thrown if the seed is not present? And about the topic of...

    Hacking [RELEASE] Wii U USB Helper, a small eShop for Windows !

    First of all, thank you, Hikari, for this software. It seems like the kind of thing I have been looking for, for some time now. That being said, I have a question about 3DS games, updates, and DLCs downloading using this app: What do I need to do with this app in order to get the list of...
