Can't Extract Exefs

[Catonthemat9154]

i tried ctrtool --intype=exefs --exefsdir=exefsdir --decompresscode exefs.bin but didn't work. im running 64x Windows 7

[ihaveamac]

is the exefs.bin file decrypted?

[Catonthemat9154]

yes

[Catonthemat9154]

im sure about it but how do i check

[ihaveamac]

you sure? what's the output from ctrtool? what does the header look like in a hex editor?

[Catonthemat9154]

it just says ExeFS:

[Catonthemat9154]

i tried two different codes --decompresscode is in the CMD execute

[Catonthemat9154]

[ihaveamac]

please use a hex editor and show me the header (first 0x200 bytes or so). HxD is a good one for Windows if you need one.

skype will be easier to communicate add me if you have it: matis05ms

[ihaveamac]

I'd prefer not to use that, sorry.

from the looks of this so far, your file probably is not an exefs. how did you get this file?

[Catonthemat9154]

[ihaveamac]

that's not an exefs. this is a blank file.

[Catonthemat9154]

it is an .bin file

[Catonthemat9154]

exefs.bin

[ihaveamac]

.bin is a generic extension. the contents of this don't make it an exefs. how did you get this?

[Catonthemat9154]

braindump from 3ds and extracted it

[Catonthemat9154]

but there was an error at the end of the dumping. it said that it failed to output, but every single KiB was there

[ihaveamac]

that's a braindump/*hax issue, I'm afraid. it can't dump all games, especially digital 9.6+ (seed-encrypted) ones at the moment. I would suggest you dump your game (cart or digital) using Decrypt9WIP or GodMode9.

[Catonthemat9154]

funny thing is i have Decrypt9WIP so now i can crap in my sd card, and try to finally dmump that game im trying to dump PkS btw

thanks for your help
