So for Pokemon ultra moon on my 3ds, i use luma layerdfs patching in order to patch in the randomizer i made. On PC though, i'm trying to use the randomizer in citra, which is proving to be difficult. I used 3ds hacking toolkit to extract my cxi so i could replace the files (which works fine, i've tested the cxi in citra) though there is no option to rebuild a cxi file; only to extract. I tried rebuilding a .3ds file, but it corrupted and spat out a dummy file. Is there any way to rebuild a cxi file? Or am i going about this completely the wrong way?

I assume it means the directory of the building files... "Header, ExeFS, RomFS etc"
So i had no clue, so what i did was i used the .net toolkit to extract my cxi so i could overwrite the files and rebuild it from there. The only issue is if i choose the place where everything extracted to, it throws an error at me. i made a folder in the directory called "ExtractedUM" and there it has 2 folders. Romfs and exefs, each containing their respected files. It also contains logo.bin exheader.bin etc, and i chose this whole directory as the extracted rom. Any ideas?

I'd just read through the commands. It gives a pretty specific outline of how to do what you want.

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?

    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
