Convert 3DS to CIA Guide

Due to problems I have run into with certain staff members on this site, my content will no longer be hosted here. The guide, information and/or tool you're looking for is gone.

Now copy your ROM image(s) into the root of the SD card, eject the card and place it into your Nintendo 3DS with it turned off.
this is unnecessary, only "ncchinfo.bin" needs to be put on the SD card in "Decrypt9".
 
Eh, I've been doing it wrong all of this time?!?
nope, ncchinfo.bin is the only file required to generate XORpads for ROMs. the only reason to copy full ROM images to the SD card is to directly decrypt them (which this converter won't take).

You're right. Damn, I've been wasting a lot of time. Heh.

Could somebody explain what is the meaning of the following lines on the 3DS?

Opening seeddb.bin ...
Could not open seeddb.bin
9.x seed crypto will fail

Does that mean some recent roms will not convert to cia properly?
