So now you have to copy the CFW's files to the root of the SD card.
Remember to delete Launcher.dat and rename Launcher_GW.dat to Launcher.dat.

Finally i got it working and i also installed nsmb 2

The PC can decrypt ? I thought you need the xorpads, and only the 3DS could generate them ? i'm trying to do it (generating xorpads with the 3DS) but it's slooooooooow and it crashes after sometimes :\

I mean you need to get all files the 3DS and the pc. Yeah, they xorpads can just be generated with the 3DS, afaik.

Step2: creating an .rsf fileThe .rsf file is a little bit different then the one for .3ds roms. Anyway here is the proper one, make sure you fill in the XXXX the right way. Just copy the text in the codebox underneath in a text editor and save it as cia.rsf in the folder with the other stuff.

• you can open the exheader or original rom in a hex editor to look up the right values for the companycode, producttyp and productcode
•For the correct UniqueID you can check ctrtool and the official rom. Just remove the last 2 0 and write the 4 digits before that in the .rsf file:

Can someone explain me this step? I dont understand what i have to do.

make a file.. with notepad..save as .rsf substitute the XXX for the information you gather about the 3ds game...

I think the problem is that there is no XXX inn the quote D:

Guys look at this video how pokemon x work on 4.5 CFW?

 

[Arnold0]

Guys, I have another question :
On my legit 9.2.0 3DS I have pokemon X and zelda ALBW bought from the eshop. Is it possible to convert these eshop games to CIAs files or not ?

 

[pLaYeR^^]

Get an error. Please help me :/

 

[Nobunaga]

Riku who did you managed to get Pokemon X to work on 4.5 CFW?
Can you explain how to make CIA files from ROMs??

Use padgen_v3. It doesn't crash.

Alright, so I think people have gotten OoT3d and MK7 Working. Can those people zip their successful setups (without the pads and decrypted files of course) and upload them? I feel so close...

I feel these games should work, but I can't get them to:

-Kid Icarus Uprising
-Fire Emblem Awakening

Also, if I was to repack a game to 3ds, what would I change?

Also, does anyone know if Bravely Default:For the Sequel is built on SDK 5.X? It requires 3ds version 5.1, but that isn't the limiting factor I don't think.

But the v3 is sources and I don't know how to compile it. (The only thing I know how to compile are Visual Studio and Java projects, not PY files)

 

[CalebW]

ctrtool -t exheader exheader.bin > exheader.txt

might make it a bit easier pulling info from the exheader

Should this be the decrypted exheader or the encrypted exheader?

.py files are python scripts. You don't compile them.
You just install Python 2.7 and then drag and drop your rom into ctrKeyGen.py and a ncchinfo.bion will be created.

The properly compiled version of padgen can't be shared here because of the 7.x key.
