− | To use this tool, proper keys need to be supplied. For developer-unit keys, you need to be an official Nintendo 3DS developer, and have access to the official Nintendo 3DS SDK. For retail-unit keys, don't even bother.
| + | The CXI generator has not been released yet, please understand it is under development. I apologize for adding in the possibility of using retail RSA keys; they would be so hard for us to get it wouldn't even be funny having them. However, when homebrew is available to this community the output should be usable, as a homebrew loader would not check the signature. |

− | I am proud to reveal what this upcoming project is today.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | It has come to my attention that there is no GBATemp Homebrew Bounty. At the time of writing the news above (~3 weeks ago) I was under the impression it would happen again.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Regardless by saying "at" I was implying "by". I will still release this next version, to be dubbed "CiTRUS Ultimate". Currently I do not have an estimate of when the release will be exactly, but I am hoping for sometime next week since I am getting positive results.

− | I know, due to the nature of how I am "unknown" to the scene, I may be considered a liar or fraud. To assure you that I am honest with my work I will enclose a download to a work-in-progress 3DS-mode Homebrew ("Hello World") CXI I developed using CiTRUS Ultimate.

− | <del>I understand some of the misinformed users of gbatemp may think this is developer-only but in fact it can be retail signed, provided the right RSA keys. In my demo, I used a fake RSA key. When using this program, I provide you an option to specify your own RSA keys for signing. No illegal keys will be provided. The CXI is a format used by both retail and developer 3DS's, not just developer!</del>

− | This tool is practically for developer-units only.
| |
| | | |
− | Please note that this CXI has not been tested for loading but it has valid structure, a valid ExeFS (contains ARM11 code, banner, icon, and logo) and has been accepted in transformations to other formats. To the best of my knowledge this is very close to a proper CXI, if not a proper one already.
| + | Well, it's been a fun 7 months so far. |
| | | |
| | | |
− | In the initial release of this new feature in CiTRUS I will only include very simple options, but if I see users are enjoying this program I will add more to it.
| + | Encrypted, proper CXI: |
| | | |
| | | |
− | In case some of you wonder, this does not have a RomFS. I admit I have not delved into that yet.
| + | http://www.mediafire.com/?hcm1p6fq4x7q14o |
| | | |
| | | |
− | Currently this has the capability to enable debug modes, sign[-], hash, and create CXI files out of an ELF/AXF to the best of my knowledge.
| + | Signatures, Hashes, ExeFS, Extended Header, Flags[-], NCCH header, and encryption are now valid. The only thing left now is the RomFS. |
| | | |
| | | |
− | [-] = RSA key is required for retail/developer signatures. | + | [-] = It seems flags for developer applications may differ from retail application flags, but it is not a big deal as when retail applications can be decrypted I can replace and change my flags to fit retail needs. The generated CXIs would still require an exploit to run on a retail 3DS, however. |
| + | The flags are already laid out and are valid developer flags, though. |
