✅ Roadmap

  • Decrypt .cia
    • Games
    • Patch and DLCs
  • Decrypt .3ds
  • Rust decrypt.py rewrite (ctrdecrypt)

Warning

Decryption with cia-unix may fail, when it happens it is suggested to decrypt roms directly on the 3DS.

The old python 3 version can be found here.

⚡️ Build from source

You’ll need the Crystal compiler

crystal build cia-unix.cr --release --no-debug

Dependencies can be compiled with makerom and ctrtool make files.
