Once the process is complete, press Start to reboot your 3DS, and then power it off from the Home Menu.Extracting Content from the Game: -Use the 'Hans Pack' to extract from the.CIA file. Extract it into a folder called 'HansScripts for Mario Maker.' - Insert the SD card back into the computer, and navigate to 'SD:/files9/'.
- There comes a new tool-3DS/3DZ To CIA Converter V5.00, and it can convert the 3ds ROM file to cia file which can directly be installed with 3ds menu under the gateway emunand.And the converted games is installed in the 3DS SD card（including save). In other words, we donot need to read games from gateway 3ds red card after using this tool, which will be more convinent.
- Solved a bug with some CIA files which caused crashes when selected in Filebrowser. Increased a lot Network Installation speed. Now when you select a CIA file in Filebrowser it will show Needed size to be installed and CIA version. Now NASA will generate automatically title.db and import.db if they don't exist.
- Convert.3ds to.cia Insert your 3DS SD card into your PC Create a folder called in inside the /gm9/ folder on your SD card if it doesn’t exist already Copy your.3ds rom file to the /gm9/in/ folder on your SD card.
- Restart 3ds Max to apply the change and try again The script tries to enable the 'Flip Green' checkbox of a VRayNormalMap. This fails either because (1) this parameter doesn't exist in your version of VRay, because you have either an older, or a newer, version than the script developer had, or because (2) your copy of VRay doesn't have.
