Homebrew SOON! (Super cOOl iNstaller!) - A New Cool Legal Open Source CIA Installer

You can use JPG files instead of PNG files to crop a good amount of filesize.

I tried, but size it's almost the same for the covers and look better in PNG

That depends on the content of the image actually. Images with lots of color variation, like photos, compress better with JPEG, but images with lots of solid colors will compress better as PNG while also being lossless and preserving transparency. You can use a program called PNGGauntlet to find the most optimal PNG compression matrix as well, further optimizing your file sizes.

I used a old Lua module for AMS to auto-convert, will try PNGGauntlet

This is pretty cool. I wish it had a progress bar/% displayed though.

How can this be legal?
-snip-

the cia is just the packed content
you can make 'legal' (as in not pirate) CIAs. we need to hack the 3ds to install CIAs, sure. you don't need illegal hardware to install CIAs either

The only thing I want is to be able to install downloaded CIAs with Ninjhax... Will you do a version that can manage that? =)

All homebrews are illegal from nintendo...

homebrew itself does not have to be illegal. it could be illegal, in some places, under some rules (like, if it uses copyrighted code or whatever) - but it does not have to use copyrighted stuff.
running it might sometimes be questionable, but just the hack a homebrew 'exists' is not illegal, all over the world

Breaking terms of service isn't the same as breaking the law. Nintendo may refuse to provide support for you if you break terms of service (and they're certainly within their right to do so), but they don't have any legal recourse, as breaking terms of service isn't in and of itself illegal (of course if you start pirating your games, and using copyrighted stuff, then it's a different topic entirely...)

 

[Chelsea_Fantasy]

this is getting off topic

it will be released in one or two days

be sure to check out!

Big Red Menu modified ones have this feature. It's quite simple to add if you know C/C++ ( https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/Big_Red_Menu/blob/master/source/luaSystem.cpp#L436-L456 )

well, gonna try to recompile your LPP-3DS elf
what I do is just hex-edit the elf to redirect the index.lua and then create my own lua code
wish me luck with my old devkitpro

Might be noob but how do you uninstall CIA ?
This homebrew deletes CIA after installation ?
It seems to only be possible to install, not uninstall...

Yes, this homebrew delete al Cia files at folder "Cias To Install"
Sorry for my bad english

 

[cracker]

You should have an option or different key combos for deleting the cias after install or not.

Also, like (what I think) OuahOuah was getting at — is uninstallation going to be added? It is a pain having to Google for the right ID to remove in other tools.
