Homebrew [Release] CTRXplorer - Open Source SD File Manager

[Tyson TH]

how do i return to the homebrew launcher
How do I delete a post?

Compiling with latest ctrcommon (needs updating the draw function sine that was changed in ctrulib) and ctrulib fixes the return to loader issue.
I attach the 0.8.5 binary with latest libraries

Thank you!

I got back yesterday and finally updated the CTRXplorer release (check the first post). It will now properly exit on newer Hax such as Ninjhax 2.0, Tubehax or Ironhax. Big thanks go to @suloku who provided a compiled version of my last changes while I was on vacation.

I do intend to make some improvements to the internal hex editor (searching for strings / hex values inside a file, better scrolling options) in the following days. I'll migrate the code to citrus (which is basically the new ctrcommon replacement) later on, but this only means under the hood changes.

If you've got some ideas on how to improve CTRXplorer or on features you'd wish to see in there, just write here in the thread.

Maybe hex editing?

Maybe hex editing?

Yeah, I thought about that earlier, and that option is still on my list. However, the proper implementation of features such as insertion / deletion / copy / paste is complicated and will never be as easy to use as on a PC hex editor. Just giving the user the option to edit single values would be easy, but also somewhat limited.

It would be perfectly fine for me. Just one byte editing for testing without PC!

Alright, I'll think about adding limited hex editing capabilities. I might even consider deletions / insertions, but processing these will take a lot of time with large files.

Or text editing also would be good, I think!

Just wanted to suggest using HBKBLib as input system:

I tried myself last week, but well, c++ is not my strong point (or any point at all).

So can this extract a cartridge save and re-upload the save?

 

[suloku]

No, this is "just" a file manager for SD card only.

I'm getting met with a black screen upon launching this with the latest version, previous version runs fine (besides not being able to exit, (nothing on screen says how to exit, START doesn't)).
Ninjhax 2.1 (themehax/homemenuhax).

Thanks for pointing that out! I guess ctrcommon may be outdated now, duh... I'll look into it!

Already fixed. Updating to the latest CTRcommon & CTRUlib did the trick. Thanks for pointing it out!

Everyone, download this release if you have trouble running CTRXplorer on Ninjhax 2.x:

What's new:
o Compiled with latest CTRcommon & CTRUlib
o Ninjhax v2.1 compatibility

really useful tool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More amazing work by the amazing @d0k3

 

[Xenosaiga]

Any intention to add any kind of UI for this or is it just remaining a bare bones SD explorer?

(By the way really really like this as it has been very very useful!)

 

[matt!]

I don't think it needs a graphical UI, it's very capable as it is

Yeah... I got to looking at it after having used Menuhax Manager 2.0 and I seen it is just wraparound text while this actually has a layout to it.

That's enough for what it is. Again it's a great manager

It would be great if this could view screenshots (BIN or extracted PNG)
