Yes! So we can finally expect all the soundtracks to game which didn't get an official release.
 
I'm new to 3DS homebrew (my N3DS is running it though), and I'm looking for a way to rip in-game audio, for general playback but also maybe to create my own custom 3DS theme. Is this thread as relevant as it gets for doing this, or is there something else somewhere that my searches haven't found?

Dumping game data from RAM is obsolete now that we can decrypt and extract .3DS and .CIA dumps.
 
Ok. Thanks. So what route should I be looking at to rip/extract audio nowadays?
This should work:
ctrtool.exe --content=App file.3ds/cia

3dstool.exe -xvtf cxi App.0000.00000001 --header NCCH.Header --exh DecryptedExHeader.bin --exefs DecryptedExeFS.bin --romfs DecryptedRomFS.bin --logo Logo.bcma.LZ --plain PlainRGN.bin --exh-auto-key --exefs-auto-key --romfs-auto-key

3dstool.exe -xvtf exefs DecryptedExeFS.bin --exefs-dir ExtractedExeFS --header ExeFS.Header

3dstool.exe -xvtf romfs DecryptedRomFS.bin --romfs-dir ExtractedRomFS
You need ctrtool and latest 3dstool (can be found on GitHub)
Edit the parts in red. The App.0000.00000001 should be the file starting with App.0000 after running the first command, the 00000001 part might vary.
After running every command you should end up with an ExtractedExeFS and ExtractedRomFS directory, the files you want should be in ExtractedRomFS somewhere.

I don't really follow your syntax, but I appreciate the reply and I will be back once I've had some time to sit down and work it out. Thanks.
 
Not the response I was hoping for. I searched through the messages in this thread, but none of the download links for the utility work, so there's no solution. It can't be considered obsolete, right? VGMToolBox couldn't extract the bcsar file of a game I wanted to rip.
 
Sorry to bump this old thread but does anyone have the source code for this? The github link is dead and the internet archive only has the main repository page and not the download for the archive file
