Homebrew [Release] CIAngel - download GOOD cias right on your 3ds :)

[4gionz]

Holy hell I leave for a little while and all of a sudden there is a pirate eshop downloader.... Man this is incredible work. Can't say I've ever seen an on console system like this before. Soon as you have it tidied up and get the progress bar working this will be bad ass

Yeah once it has like a selection menu for games with no need to manually touch tittle IDs or anything we can have the 3ds equivalent to installous or appcake for iPhone. This could end up being realllyyy sweet good job @cearp

Indeed although the difference between this and those is it uses the original source aka Nintendo's network.

Very tempted to make a mod of this that has a database of Title IDs and keys to download games from a list.
I'll prolly release it on that iso site or somewhere similar.

Or maybe one that reads the keys on a file on the sd?

I'm currently working on straight install instead of creating a CIA, can't guarantee it'll work but it doesn't seem too difficult. I'll probably take a stab at a progress bar during this as well, or once I'm done, not sure which.

Cearp has already added functionality to download encTitleKeys.bin to the app. Right now it doesn't have any sort of menu system though, so making it so you can pick things without typing the title ID will take a bit of work. There would also need to be some DB implemented that maps title IDs to actual names (And as cearp has mentioned, this will run into issues with non-english titles most likely).

Is it possible that Nintendo detects a pirate using this?

No credentials are sent to the Nintendo CDN while downloading files. Could they IP ban you? Probably, but I doubt they will. Could they console ban you? Maybe, though I don't believe your console ID is sent at all either, and apparently it's easy to bypass a console ban anyways.

So I've downloaded all the tickets, took about 15 mins, now what? cant seem to use sd card to search for anything comes back with an error, can i not sue all the stuff I've just downloaded into the ticket folder?

 

[Drakia]

As far as I know, the ticket stuff cearp added is used to create ticket files you can install with FBI, then download games directly from the eShop. I don't believe he has usage documented anywhere (Not even sure if it's considered complete yet).

Can you just install a ticket.db dumped from Decrypt9 on X 3ds and install it with Fbi on Y 3ds?

Trust me. There is documentation on .tik files. Look around on that chaos site. Look into the tutorials section. It's stickied.

Honestly, I haven't even looked at the ticket stuff cearp added, I just know he hasn't documented what HIS implementation does anywhere (Hence why someone posted confused about what it's good for), I didn't say that .tik in general isn't documented

Nice sneak peak. But does that download and then install? Or does it just install while downloading?

Install while downloading, no temporary content or CIA files are created. It's about the fastest way to get the game from the CDN to your 3DS, outside of maybe the eShop

You get this working right and it will completely remove the need for the .tik file usage.

It's mostly done, just needs some code cleanup then I'll be passing it off to @cearp. But right now it's lunch time. It should hopefully make it into the main project sometime today or tomorrow.

Can we just download using CIAngel and install the tik file using FBI and then download the game from eshop, presume that makes the game legit and ties too the nnid

What happens if internet connection lost while installing? Just aborting the installation or will have a semi installed game?

It does not tie to your NNID but you can redownload it until you perform a system format or delete the ticket manually.

 

[DogParty]

the ticket lets you play the game
when we install cias, we get tickets installed (and content)
if we install a GOOD ticket, we can redownload content from eshop, if we can see that content in our country's eshop.
if you want more details just read 3dbrew

I know that the site that hosts the db has regions listed for each title; do you know if that's derived from the titleId/metadata? If so, we could only generate tickets for match regions which would greatly reduce download times. Either way, that should def be a field whenever we move to a new db format, imo

I'd actually love it for there to be options on whether you just want a ticket, a cia file, or neither. Increase the flexibility and improve cia creation/sharing for the masses.
