Nicoe (Nintendont Configuration Editor)

A Windows application for editing the nincfg.bin files used by Nintendont.

Serves as a replacement for NinCFGEditor.

Features:

  • Create / open / save nincfg.bin files (version 8, 9, or 10)
  • Update nincfg.bin files to version 10
  • Read the Game ID directly from a disc image
  • Extract the banner (as .png) from a disc image
  • Write a meta.xml to autoload a game directly from the Homebrew Channel (not officially supported; requires a custom build of Nintendont that can accept a base64-encoded command-line parameter)

Consists of a C++/CLI layer that wraps the native struct and borrows a bit of code to validate and update the file, C# code (copied from NinCFGEditor) to read the game ID and banner, a VB.NET frontend, and some F# unit tests.
