Hello together!
I want to play my 3DS romhacks on citra. The problem is, that i only have the romfs and the exefs file, but citra cannot play them. The emulator needs a .3ds file or a .cxi file, but i don't know, how i can create these files. Can someone tell me, how i can make that? Or is there another way to play romhacks on citra?
Thanks in advantage :)

Doesn't Braindump dump cardridges as .cxi?

yeah, it makes "cobbled together" incomplete decrypted cxis, but they work fine for citra

Would you not just modify the dumped files and then recompile them?

Not exactly.

What Louiskovski wants to do is turn a folder structure into a CXI.

Braindump, on the other hand, turns a cartridge/digital title into a CXI.

The folder structure -> CXI functionality might be found in ctrtool, I suggest you download it and take a look at its help text, Louiskovski.

Thanks a lot! The program makerom (which is included with ctrtool) can create cci :D !! But i'm right now in trouble because i don't understand the options!
I made this:
makerom -f cci -content=FolderWithFiles RomForCitra.cci
But it failes!

I got things like that:

makerom -f cci tralala.cci tralala
[SETTING ERROR] "-f" takes one parameter
[RESULT] Invalid arguments, see 'makerom -help'

makerom -f cci -content tralala.cci tralala
[SETTING ERROR] "-content" takes one parameter
[RESULT] Invalid arguments, see 'makerom -help'

makerom -f cci -content tralala.cci:tralala
[SETTING ERROR] 'tralala.cci' could not be opened
[RESULT] Invalid arguments, see 'makerom -help'

makerom -ciatocci -inclupd gaga.cia
[SETTING ERROR] "-ciatocci" takes one parameter
[RESULT] Invalid arguments, see 'makerom -help'

makerom -ciatocci gaga.cia -rsf dummy.rsf
[NCCH ERROR] "Rom/HostRoot" must be set
[NCCH ERROR] NCCH Build Process Failed
[RESULT] Failed to build outfile

but however, i think, this code is the right one:
makerom -f cci -content tralala:tralala

But i get this freaky error:
[CCI ERROR] Not enough memory
[RESULT] Failed to build CCI
What does this means?!? I was so near the goal, but then this?


EDIT: I'VE FOUND OUT, HOW IT WORKS!!!!:
This code is needed:
makerom -o rebuild.cxi -rsf rebuild.rsf -target t -code rebuild/code.bin -exheader rebuild/exheader.bin -icon rebuild/icon.bin -banner rebuild/banner.bin -romfs rebuild/romfs.bin
BUT THEN, SO NEAR THE GOAL, THIS HAPPENS:

[EXHEADER ERROR] Parameter Not Found: "AccessControlInfo/ServiceAccessControl"
[EXHEADER ERROR] Failed to create ExHeader
[NCCH ERROR] NCCH Build Process Failed
[RESULT] Failed to build outfile

AccessControlInfo/ServiceAccessControl? WHAT IS THIS????

I'd just suggest dumping the game again (you will get a cxi file): https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/wiki/Dumping-Installed-Titles

I guess it's possible to convert .3ds files but they aren't used anymore and can even still be encrypted.
