Hacking [Scripts] DSiWare Conversion: Easily Convert To .NDS and .CIA Files!

[dpad_5678]

Can this do the reverse? NDS to bin? (Obviously you can't reimport it, just curious.)

You would need the console-specific key iirc.

How do you convert a dumped nds file to cia?
I put my renamed Sonic.nds in the same folder and ran NDS to CIA but nothing happened. It only created an emty output-cia folder.

If the tool isn't working, just place the DSiWare .NDS file in the same folder as make_cia.exe and run make_cia --srl=Sonic.nds

Thank You for this just one step closer to FRIISHOP!

This worked for me (albeit not with Sonic) and I gotta say, thank you for the tool! I have that archive of 804 DSi games/apps and I was honestly afraid I'd never be able to use them on my 3DS.

now that dsi have a kernel exploit, can dsiware be installed on dsi console in future or not? and i can convert cia files back to dsi bin again? or i need nds files?

 

[iamamitten]

dsiware will likely be able to be installed

and there's a pack of 804 DSiWare titles out there, so it's not hard to get them, don't bother trying to change a cia back into a dsiware file

dsi ware can be installed on dsi console with ugopwn. You don't need a "kernel exploit" for that. The DSi security is different from the 3ds security.

There is no "pal dsi" - it's E/EUR. The entrypoint is only avaible for consoles with the U region.

 

[Arnold101]

and when will be available for eur dsi?

pal is same as eur....pal or eur is not jap or usa of course

So with this, could I theoretically take a DSIware game, convert it ti .NDS, and run it on a DSi from my R4i Gold 3DS RTS flash cart??

I would say no. Its highlighted on OP that this wont work from flashcarts

Can I convert a dsiware.app file (from NUSdownloader) to a cia?

 

[mosss]

Saves are priceless because how much work and effort you put into them. My game that love was (Rytmik Cinemax) I have a lot of songs a made and there is no way to publish them :/
The wared thing is that no one has asked this question "What happens to your saves?"
From the original bin(DSiWare) I have heard that your saves are part of the .bin itself!(that is a bad way to set things up!) So when you convert it to .nds are your saves covered as well, or are they removed?

If so is there a way to remove the save from the bin?
what format is the save in?
how can you covert it to .nds or .cia formate?
what is HNB_.Ist is that the save?
