HOW TO CONVERT ANY ROM TO.CIA FILE (GB,GBA,GBC,NES,SNES,FAMICON) 3DS NSUI 2019Link To dowload: https://gbatemp.net/threads/discussion-new-super-ultimate-inj. How To Use 3ds to CIA converter 1) Put your 3DS video games into ‘roms’ folder and press ‘Produce ncchinfo.bin data’ switch to develop ‘ncchinfo.bin’ from 3DS ROMs. 2) Make Use Of GodMode9 in addition to developed ‘ncchinfo.bin’ to produce ExHeader XORpads, put it in origin of SD card, launch GodMode9 as well as comply with. There's an app that will scan your 3ds games, then create the necessary files on an sd card, which you'll then use on the 3ds. After that, I think you need to convert the files from your 3ds to cia with the same app. It's been a long time since I've used it, so I don't remember the steps nor the app name. I'm pretty sure it's streamlined now.
Note that region changing is almost completely unnecessary since Luma3DS supports out-of-region games and individual title Locale Emulation. Additionally, running NDS games with alternative out-of-region languages is supported by TWiLightMenu++.
To use the magnet links on this page, you will need a torrent client like Deluge.
Note that if you have any payload files other than GodMode9.firm
in the /luma/payloads/
folder on your SD card, holding (Start) on boot will display a “chainloader menu” where you will have to use the D-Pad and the (A) button to select “GodMode9” for these instructions.
3ds to CIA Converter – How To Convert 3ds To Cia March 5, 2020 News today we're gonna learn how to convert 3ds files into.CIA files so that you can be able to install them with FBI on your 3ds.
This process will unlink your NNID from the system, since it will no longer be compatible with it. NNID’s are locked to the region of your device that created them and cannot be transferred between regions without a very complex and advanced process.
After this process, you will not be able to access the eShop. This includes any feature that uses an NNID, such as game updates, purchasing DLC, or online play in certain games. Region changing to your original region will usually not fix this issue.
Note that occasionally the eShop will inexplicably still not work for devices that it should work for. This is entirely to do with Nintendo’s servers, and I really do not have any control over it. Additionally, note that occasionally the eShop will inexplicably work for devices that it should not (such as some New 3DSs). The cause for this is currently unknown.
Region changing using CTRTransfer (which this method uses) seems to cause reboot patches to break. The cause for this is unknown, but Old 3DS users, for now, will be unable to play extended memory mode games (such as Monster Hunter, Super Smash Bros, and Pokémon Sun / Moon) until they format their devices.
You MUST have already installed Luma3DS and boot9strap to use this.
