ROM Hack [Tutorial] How to Decrypt, Extract & Rebuild a CIA

[Asia81]

You still can't rebuild it as a .cia?

I think i know how to rebuild a game CIA, but not a DLC, Patch, or other things...
This is all i want (Rebuild a Patch)

 

[Asia81]

Totally rewritten and the same Pack such as on my RomHacking Tutorial.

Now, i'm writing the rebuild part (Only for pokemon update at the moment).

 

[Stoned]

When i Generate the ncchinfo.bin from the update.app.out and try to dump Xorpads, i become the Error Too many/few entries or wrong version ncchinfo.bin

What can i Do?

 

[Asia81]

What's the version of SDInfo.py that you are using ?
Decrypt9 or the DS launcher ?

 

[Stoned]

Ds Launcher.

 

[Asia81]

So I don't know, I never had a problem with this...

 

[Stoned]

Hmm Thanks. I Try it Again

 

[Asia81]

Be sure your XXX.app.out is fully decrypted and to drag n drop your XXX.app.out (size is 656ko/kb or 300/400ko/kb), or something like that on ctrKeyGen_Normal.py and use the NCCH padgen in the DS launcher

 

[Stoned]

My App.out has 33,4 MB Size.
Drag and Drop Does Work for me.

I Use Command Line ctrKeyGen_Normal.py x.app.out to generate the NCCH

 

[Asia81]

the size i said is for the ncchinfo.bin, sorry

 

[Stoned]

Nope i become 16bytes

 

[Asia81]

so the ncch is corrupted.
come in pm, and send me your app file (encrypted, and his SD Xorpad)

I try to do it myself but also error

You must install the CIA to decrypt on the SysNand.
Or on an EmuNand linked with the SysNand.
Target the folder of your SysNand, it looks like: F:\Nintendo 3DS\"ID1"\"ID2"\

Now enter this path: G:\Nintendo 3DS\8a94b7ac85eec5c7219705c0bb5beb94\df2b00d847
07b652534530340002544d

usage: sdinfo_gen.py folderpath
folderpath: folder on your SD that contains "dbs", "title", etc.
For example, sdinfo_gen.py "X:/Nintendo 3DS/xxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx/"

I am trying to extract the icons, textures, and other images of all the SSB3DS DLC characters. I am not sure if it is located in the Game update cia or the DLC cia. So does anyone knows which cia the said files are located? I seems to have extracted the sounds files for the DLC characters from the game update cia. However not what I was looking for. If it's on the DLC cia, then how do you go about extracting it properly, as the xorpads seems different (at least in the naming department)? Come to think of it, the higher quality texture, images, etc are probably on the Wii U game update or DLC, do'h.

Hmm, nothing wants to extract from my Omega Ruby CIA whenever I'm doing the Extract the CIA process. I don't even get asked for names of my Xorpad like the screenshots show, weird. Any advices?

 

[Asia81]

use title id instead of thefull xorpads name

 

[Xeogran]

Tried already, still returns me back to the Your Choice screen after I type everything. For reference here is a screenshot:

First I type SDK7, then this:

then I select no to decompressing code.bin

And back to the choice again.

I'm probably doing some newbie tier mistake somewhere but I don't know where :s

 

[Asia81]

Why not using the .3ds instead of a CIA ?
It's the game or the update ?

 

[Xeogran]

It's the game, and it's because I only have a CIA made at this point.
But is the 3DS unpacking/packing process easier in general? If so I'll make one.

And I suppose it's easier for the Hacks too, since you don't have to constantly install your CIA to check?

More easy with .3ds, yeah
