Hey!

This may not be the correct section, but I'm wondering if there's a CIA trimmer.

I tried placing a ROM (Luigi's Mansion 2) onto my SD card to install using DevMenu, but the ROM is literally 4 MB too large for my SD card.

Cia's aren't ROMs so their sizes don't have to be in powers of two. They're 'trimmed' by default and also compressed and without the update partition. You can't get them any smaller.

CIA's are smaller than their untouched ROM counterparts, how much smaller i cant vouch for as ive never had the need to trim anything. You can trims ROMs but not .cia. You may just have to bite the bullet and delete something or uninstall a .cia

Can't delete anything. I have emuNAND, DevMenu, and CFW installe. That's all

Thanks, though!

    Yea didn't help. I want to build another but figured if I can get another year or so from this pc, ill be happy. I hardly use it anyways. Mostly for pirating switch games, and tv shows/ movies to add to NAS drive. Pretty much all I do on it anymore. I have a lappy and a tablet I use the most.
