ROM Hack How to convert .rar files to .nds files?

[OtakuNoBaka]

Recently, I've download some games. However, all those games are in .rar files; but I don't find any .nds files in it.

Can I convert these to .nds files?

 

[brunocar]

WTF? those are zip files and besides, why does the folder look like an uncompressed NDS file?

 

[CeeDee]

That doesn't seem like anything relevant to a .nds file.

 

[CMDreamer]

Are you sure you downloaded NDS files compressed as RAR ones?

There's no such thing as converting a RAR file into a NDS file, most of the time, what you get is a NDS file compressed into a RAR file, and you just have to uncompress it to get the NDS file.

If you don't find a NDS file inside the RAR files you downloaded, you didn't download a NDS game, period.Even DSiWare games are NDS files, but need to be installed on NAND to get them to work.

the : "rars" is compress formats!!!!! while the ds fleshcert is only reading of ndos roms ...
recommend would be to delerates securely said files of rars and download clean rems from reliateble source (like the freeshops or the boat bae?)

I see you have good taste in eroge sir OP

My brain just died... you gotta extract the .rar file in order to get the .nds file that's compressed inside.

Are you all like... really unable to read?
The OP states that "all those games are in .rar files; but I don't find any .nds files in it."
OP even uploaded a picture, showing the extracted content.



@OtakuNoBaka : Just download your games again, somewhere else.

Just delete the folder and download the games elsewhere. Those aren't even the proper internals for a DS ROM, so compressing them to an NDS format won't do you any good.

This can't be real.

 

[wicksand420]

try to change the file extension from .rar to .nds

that's an eroge isn't it? you should download VNDS then put those files on vnds/novels/

 

[Mcdev]

Download 7zip install it and right click the rar file and extract here

Use winrar or another program supporting rar decompression.

Dude, seriously use WinRar from Rarlab.com. The thread I linked has someone go through this exact problem.

 

[OtakuNoBaka]

NVM, I've figured out that I need to use vnds
