Error: invalid ExtHeader hash / But Rom works on citra like a charm

[adhoc115]

Hi,

I tried really every tool out there to transform trimed, decrypted .3ds files to .cia I found on the net. None worked out of the box. With 3dsconv I get at least an error witch is a hint for something.

Here an Examble for "0487 - Legend of Zelda, The - A Link Between Worlds (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) Decrypted.3ds"

Errorlog:
"C:\Users*\Desktop\3ds to cia>3dsconv.exe --boot9=boot9.bin --verbose 0487.3ds
3dsconv.py ~ version 4.1
pyaes found, Searching for protected ARM9 bootROM

The file workes absolutely perfect on citra emu. Why is a transform to .cia always giving that error and how can it be fixed?

Thanks for your work!

dunno, it's probably corrupt somewhere and Citra likely does not verify before running. you could try --ignore-bad-hashes but this could result in "Invalid NCCH" when attempting to install.

Thanks for your replay! I got the images from here {link removed}
Even with the command --ignore-bad-hashes its not working. It is also not working for mariocart and zelda orcania of time. Converting a Rom form other source worked today.
Do you have any idea why none of them from 1ficher is working?

[ihaveamac]

no idea, the rom is probably just bad. nothing I can do about it.

all right, thank for your perfect tool anyway!
