Well, boop has a transfer limit, my app (as far as I knew) didn't. But recently one person said he couldn't transfer 4.5Gb so yeah... xD.@DD2XAlpha As the developer of this software, what are your thoughts on it? How do you think is different from Boop?
It seems this is a better option than boop. This morning I was trying to install a 1.3gb game and since my internet is very slow, it downloaded in like an hour and a half. But just when it was on 99%, the app, for some reason showed an error ((: I'll try your software and see if it works for me.Well, boop has a transfer limit, my app (as far as I knew) didn't.

Boop is a pure C# application, it uses some libraries to be able to connect to FBI.
Mine is a combination of C# and Python. As I say in the app, I use a script made by FBI owner Steveice10, I changed it a little bit to fulfill my goal of being able to send multiple CIA files, the script was already able to do it, but not in the way I wanted.
Let me explain. The script can send one or more CIA files. When you want to send more than one, the script will ask for a folder in a directory, it gets all the CIA files of the directory and send it to your 3DS... which for me was not ok. My goal was to make people to be able to send only the CIA files they wanted, so I changed the script to look only for the CIA files that the user wants. For now the unique limitation is that all the CIA files must be in one folder.
In conclusion, I am proud of this application. I have many projects I didn't release, but I hope someday I'll make another great app like this one.
Thanks for asking!
Hope it works great for you!It seems this is a better option than boop. This morning I was trying to install a 1.3gb game and since my internet is very slow, it downloaded in like an hour and a half.

Can u please DM me i need some assistance.And is released! if any problem please DM me!
Hey! Thanks a lot!!I made an account just to thank you for this program. It worked like a charm when I was having trouble downloading games via qr code.
Since this is a python app, can i launch this on linux?
EDIT : i have a problem with python : the command to launch python is py, but your program is trying to launch python. That's making the program not working. Can you help me with that?
Hi, I can't use correctly the program, I installed Python 3.8 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Home, downloaded the program and tried to install Pokemon Ultra Sun, but I have a few problems. First of all, I've been seeing that the program is supposed to recognize the game you are trying to install, but in my case that doesn't happen. The other thing is, when I press START, it opens CMD with only this line: C:\Users\nicoh\Desktop\PC FBI Server>, and nothing else happens. Am I missing some step? I also checked the PATH option when I installed Python, so I'm not really sure what could be happening. Also I tried to install Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, and it didn't work either.
I changed the port to 8080, didn't work.
I run it as Admin, didn't work
I have a New 3DS xl, with FBI 2.6.0, and it still in the 'Waiting for connection...' screen, so I suppose it's not communicating with the program.

I am so sorry that I couldn't attend you, I've been busy (and I am still busy). Hope you found a solution. If yes, please share it!

No shade no nothing. Let me start off by saying I respect you. But, I feel like you should leave FBI where it stands, it doesn’t need improvements, I feel you should shift your focus to the switch.PC FBI Server 2.0
Hello guys! I've been working hard to get my app PC FBI Server look and work awesome. But some bugs may still there, so if anyone has the opportunity of checking it and if a bug happen send a PM with a screen capture of it.
As far as I know, everything should work perfectly. But is always good to know what happen in other people machines.
What is PC FBI Server:
PC FBI Server is a tool for Windows with Python that can send a CIA file over the wifi, so you don't need to take off your SD/micro SD of your 3DS, put it on your PC and the need of have the double amount of the CIA size that you are going to install, and it installs it automatically!
Does it has trasnfer limit?
Nope, you can transfer larger CIAs without problem (NOTE: Apparently there is a size limit, the user @DualBladedKirito told me it can not transfer CIA files that it's size is up to 4.5Gb)
What I need to use it?
NOTE: Make sure Python is a PATH variable, if you don't know how to do it see this tutorial
- PC with Windows
- Python 3 installed (you can download it from here)
- 3DS with FBI installed
- Wifi connection (PC and 3DS should be on the same network)
How to use?
-On your 3DS open FBI, select 'Remote install' option, then select 'Receive URLs overt the network'
-On your PC, open PC FBI Server
-Fill the information required (3DS IP [Shown on your 3DS], CIA file, your PC IP and 3DS Port [Also in shown on the 3DS, usually 5000]
-Hit start
-In your 3DS a prompt should appear asking if you want to install, just press A.
What is new?
Images
- Now it doesn't matter if the name of the CIA or folder has spaces or special symbols, those now are accepted!
- Now with 3ds box covers! Powered by GameTDB to add style to the app. Thanks GameTDB
- Ability of choosing preferences for PAL covers
- Now with database thanks to 3dsdb.com and their XML database
- Design of the app updated
- Now when you select a CIA it displays it's name, region and titleID
- Added Queuing!
- Your PC IP and port 5000 will be already wrote on the textboxes!
- For selecting a CIA to send in queuing, just check the little box in the 'State' column.
Special thanks to @wrettcaughn for helping me to improve this application!

You realize there is still enough people bitching on 3ds that FBI is sometimes slow as hell. We still do need some 3ds devs.No shade no nothing. Let me start off by saying I respect you.
