With more than half a year since the last GodMode9, you didn't see that coming, right? Today, exactly three years have passed since the first public release of GodMode9 (v0.2.0). A lot has happened since, and GodMode9 evolved to the almighty multi purpose tool it is today. Here's what you get in this release:

  • [new] CIA Checker tool gives insights into any CIA file provided
  • [new] DSiWare NDS files can be converted to CIA
  • [new] Offer fixing for BOSS files on failed verification
  • [improved] Switched from Thumb to ARM and enabled LTO (may or may not improve performance)
  • [improved] Full verification for RomFS inside NCCH
  • [improved] Added a prompt when building CIA with a private legit ticket
  • [improved] Cart id and type is shown on gamecart drive
  • [improved] Number of explorer panes increased to 3
  • [fixed] Proper verification of CFA images (also fixes NCSD verification)
  • [fixed] Proper handling for incomplete DLC CIAs
  • [fixed] Some minor bugs in the GM9 Megascript (thanks @annson24)
  • [fixed] Countless other minor bug fixes and improvements
  • [special] Special anniversary edition splash screen
  • [scripting] textview command for viewing text files
  • [scripting] dumptxt command for dumping text to a file
  • [scripting] extrcode and cmprcode commands (to extract and compress .code, thanks @Hyarion-SS )
  • [scripting] cp -p allows appending a file to another (thanks @Hyarion-SS)
  • [scripting] filesel -x and dirsel -x enable a new file selector style (thanks @windows-server-2003)
