ROM Hack [Release] Villain3ds - Basically freeShop but runs on your PC

[THYPLEX]

Isn't it for making html5 2d-games only? Electron has more for making apps with html5 and js.



Sure, definitely. Villain3ds is only in usable state for now. More features will come soon

This software reminds me to Wii u USB helper , Hope It will become good (imho) as It

 

[tunip3]

Thanks It made with electron (check out https://electron.atom.io). So basically it's a Chrome browser, and the app's GUI is the web page, so the app will be a bit heavy and ram and slow startup.

You think you could port it to uwp

How exactly is it compressing files already compressed? (in response to "videos and audio files")

If your file is a zip (or other popular format) without a password or encryption, google servers will analyse it, decompress and compress it again, with a more powerful method, while still retraining the original format, linux permissions, etc.

Except for whatever reason it breaks symlinks for Electron applications on macOS. According to Google I'm not the only one with this problem, and extracting the content of the archive with the native ZIP tool is the only workaround. Unfortunately, though, the OP can't compress the release as a ZIP. I'm gonna try the build he uploaded last night when I get home. I fell asleep before I could last night.

+1 on Material Design. Does Wii U USB Helper produce good/clean/proper/whateverterminologyyouwanttouse CIA's?

yes yes it does and it supports wii u too but still give this a try too

 

[tranxuanthang]

I made some a while ago (2 years) but I'm not sure if I will have it. Maybe @ihaveamac could help?

You put a macOS version of make_cdn_cia in this zip, right?
https://gbatemp.net/threads/release...ds-fw-contents-create-installable-cia.375993/
Assuming that's right, I've uploaded my source code with this make_cdn_cia included. So @Joom you can try to clone and run this directly on your mac and see if it works or not.

Edit: Someone says that it'll work for mac if run build/package script on linux, so try this:
http://upload.basementla.bz/index.php?file=3241_Villain3DS-darwin-x64.zip

Thanks It's gonna work on mac but there are still some trouble.

Not yet, maybe the future or someone will do, because I don't a wii u

This version worked fine for me on macOS High Sierra with a make_cdn_cia compiled from this source here: https://github.com/skyerday/ctr_toolkit/tree/master/make_cdn_cia

Great job!

this app has problems with any games that use Japanese characters, it fails to create the CIA since the directory it is trying to create is all ? marks, which are not valid characters for the NTFS File System.

I'll try it out when I get home from work. Thanks so much for your work. I'm so glad people are starting to release multiplatform tools.

Nice, so this app can really run on mac Thanks for doing the test. If you can let's try to install the generated .cia on a 3ds just to make sure.

I will check this later. Could be something wrong with the sanitize-filename module that i'm using.

Installed just fine, CIA version number was accurate and was able to remove and re-download off the eShop no troubles.

I'm also able to download files with Japanese characters and have the CIA compile just fine, but macOS is a Unicode OS so it has no troubles using those characters in the filename.

Here is the Make_CDN_CIA for macOS I'm using:

Got it working on my Mac too. Downloads and compiles CIAs without issue.

A nice feature request would be to automatically install games to the SD if the SD filesystem is mounted to the system and if movable.sed and 0x35keyX are provided.
The ticket(s) would be in a separate folder for FBI to mass-install them, since it is not possible to install tickets (currently) with just the SD card.

how can i use this on my mac? is there a guide i can refer to?

thanks.

One idea, you can upload your project in github

Download this.
http://upload.basementla.bz/index.php?file=3241_Villain3DS-darwin-x64.zip

Then create a folder in your home directory named "Villain3ds", decompress this, and put make_cdn_cia in it.

The make_cdn_macos binary you're providing is either broken or not meant for macOS. Use the one @AnalogMan attached.
Edit: Never mind. The program is breaking it somehow. I tried replacing the binary in the build directory with one I know that works, compiled it, ran it, and when it places it in ~/Villain3DS it's broken. I get this error when trying to run the dropped binary from a terminal.

~/Villain3ds

▶ ./make_cdn_cia_macos

zsh: exec format error: ./make_cdn_cia_macos

Manually replacing the dropped binary doesn't help either because I guess the application force drops the bundled binary every time.

The source code at github is modified to automatically copy make_cdn_cia (including the _macos version) to ~/villain3ds each time when the download window just opened. So you can manually overwrite it safety afterwards, whenever before the download process finishes.
So only the zip version I uploaded on your website that requires manually copy make_cdn_cia is working then.
Is the github version output a 0kB make_cdn_cia_macos at ~/villain3ds? Or it could be related to the file permission. On linux, the app will chmod 755 for the make_cdn_cia file to make it executable. I might forgot to do the same for macos. Update: I made some changes so when you can please reclone github version and try to run it again.

Does not work for me on windows 7 x86. Stucks on Tmd status: Fetching... Raw and CIA folders are empty

It sounds pretty hard. Is it related to a tool named fuse-3ds?

Did the "encTitleKey" field show up your game's titlekey or it was "fetching..." too? And is it happen with every other titles?
