hey switch community,

Im hoping someone can help me.

I have this game in xci that i want to convert to nsp. Im using the 4nxci but when the command prompt closes, i only get nca files and not an nsp. Iv looked everywhere for the converted nsp (which is suppose to be in the same folder as the xci) but it isnt there.

Can anyone help me?

Steps:

I have my keys.dat on same folder as the xci amd the other files.
I drag xci to the 4nxci
Command prompt comes up saying saving xxxxxxxx.nsp and then after a while it just closes

Only getting nca files on the temp folder

Someone can let me know what im doing wrong i would greatly appreciate it

Assuming you're dumping a cart, your best bet would be N1dus. it will do XCI-NSP conversion and installation directly on the console without requiring a PC.

Had the same/a simmilar issue in VMWare on a virtual Desktop (Z: drive), solution was to copy 4nxci, keys.dat and the xci file to an external harddisk, and run them from there. Worked.

Might have something to do with write permissions, or simulated paths.

Not sure if it helps you, but this helped me to solve my hangup with a similar error profile. :)

Tried using n1dus, but got the same errors pretty much... gives me an error after extracting .nca... and installing the xci directly didnt work either :( but appreciate the response

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
