Hacking EvoCRC .zip roms to .cia

[the_grudge_3000]

Hi all,

Havent used my 3ds in a long time but previously i had it setup nicely with a gateway card + microSD to play my backup roms.
I keep my roms on my PC and have used Evo CRC to store them as .zip files which contain the .3ds files, some covers and things.
Yesterday i decided to install B9S onto my 3ds which went very well.

Now i have no idea how to convert my EvoCRC .zip roms to .cia to run on B9S and the internet is a complete minefield of outdated crap information.

Can anyone please give me a simple, step by step process to bulk converting my .zips into .cia please?

I am fairly useful on computers so just high level steps and names of software will likely do

Thankyou

1. Extraction: 7-Zip -or- WinRAR
2. Conversion: GodMode9 - Converting a .3DS to .CIA
3. Installation: FBI

yeah i read that too. Its long winded and painful. Is there no method to bulk convert in an easy app or something?
Maybe i can select a folder of .3ds in godmode and it'll convert everything inside to .cias?

Thanks for your reply

Ignore the bits about finding that ISO site.

Edit - You can select all .3DS roms within a folder with (L)-shoulder and (RIGHT) d-pad in yellow.

Thanks @TurdPooCharger seems like CIAs are a bit of a pain in the a** for the upfront work that must be done but after that it gets easier. Tried the bulk CIA conversion in godmode which saves some time thanks.

Out of interest how do you store your backup roms on your pc? Is EvoCRC dead now or is there an alternative? Seems like it would be easier for me to move away from Evo all together and store them as cia's going forward
