If you have pip installed, you can install the pycrypto package with "pip install pycrypto". You should be able to look up more info about installing pycrypto for your environment with google if that isn't enough to make it work alone.
I found pycrypto and now I'm trying to run make. My issue now is I get this error:
make: *** [sections/0x5000000.bin] Error 127
Also to note I'm using windows not Linux

So can this be used to dump legitimate tickets off disc games as-is?
sure, if you are in the wupclient of my iosuhax fork you just have to insert a disc, type in "mount_odd_tickets()", then "w.dldir("/vol/storage_odd_tickets")" which drops a vol folder in the iosuhax folder with the contents of that partition, rename that to whatever you want I guess, then you do "unmount_odd_tickets()" and take the disc out, repeat.
oh and if you want to dump locally installed eshop tickets, that command would be "w.dldir("/vol/system_slc/rights/ticket/apps/")" by the way.

well I found the missing section and put it in, but now I run into several error windows from armips saying I'm missing DESKTOPCRT140D.dll, APPCRT140D.dll, and that "The proedure entry point _Thrd_id could not be located in the dynamic link library c:\armips\armips.exe"

Because I have so many legitimate tickets to dump off disc games

sure, if you are in the wupclient of my iosuhax fork you just have to insert a disc, type in "mount_odd_tickets()", then "w.dldir("/vol/storage_odd_tickets")" which drops a vol folder in the iosuhax folder with the contents of that partition, rename that to whatever you want I guess, then you do "unmount_odd_tickets()" and take the disc out, repeat.
If using WUP Client GUI:
Click mount odd_tickets
Navigate up (..) to /vol/
Double-click storage_odd_tickets
Right-click on the 02 folder and click Download (02 is data partition, 03 is update partition - correct me if I'm backwards)

You can't download individual files, you must do entire folders.

Sometimes it can be easier to make a linux flash drive or disc.

This currently only reads/downloads files from the system, it doesn't write them back. That's what makes this so safe to use right now.

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
