ROM Hack Question How to extract a nsp romfs?

[DeslotlCL]

Before someone says it, i have already looked at similar threads, but got no results so far.

I recently got my hands on dusty raging fist nsp and am trying to extract its contents, so far i have used two tools from two different threads, where they extract the nsp into its cert, tik and nca files, but once i got to extract the nca it asks me for its title key, which i know how to get (looking at offset 180 in a hex editor in the tik file) but in the two tools it tells me the header may be incorrect, or that the key is invalid.

Is there something i'm doing wrong? Or is there a better tool available? Note that i'm not experienced with command lines and stuff.

Thanks for reading.

Silly ask: did you paste titlekey without spaces between bytes?
Should look something like this
01020304
Not like this
01 02 03 04

I did, yet i still got the invalid keys/header message.

I was wondering, could it be that the nsp currently online is a bad dumped one? Just tried a third tool, and even got the same message, but i noticed it displayed the title id of the nsp and it was a=A, which i think is really, really wrong, right?

In the homebrew subforum there's a bunch of tools that can auto extract nsp to layeredfs

The one with green text is the easiest and can automatically read titlekey

But for me, I must extract using the white text one to get NCA

Then extract NCA using the green one

Sorry can't remember the tool name and my stomach hurts so much to hunt the threads

Hmm, will try getting the nca file with one of those tools and then try to extract the nca with the green one (which was the third tool used but still failed to get the files lmao).

Dont want to annoy so much, but could you explain the steps you followed to successfully get the romfs files? No need to search for the tools, i will do it, but the details of how you did it would be really appreciated!

Don't use any tools, use hactool and the command line.

There are tools based on cmd for hactool, so why not?

 

[F4mouZSt4r]

Cuz with the command line itself, you have much more decide what you actually doing

I had already so many ppl who had problems with romfs extracting cuz they used the tools, but after I said use hactool and the commands, they had the files without any problems

I simply drag the NCA to its window.

What error message you got?

hactool -k <your keys file> --romfsdir=<dir to extract romfs> --titlekey=<titlekey> <nca file>

If you look around you can find a keys.txt floating around. Just cant be shared here. You don't need any console specific keys
