Hello everyone. Today I'm releasing a Windows tool that will make the GBA injection process much easier and customizable. I'm introducing '''Ultimate GBA VC Injector for 3DS'''.
 
'''What does it do?:'''
It takes a GBA backup file and converts it to an installable CIA for your 3DS with CFW. It does all in a one single program.
 
'''Features:'''
 
 
* VC GBA injection into a CIA
* Easy made custom 3D banner
* Easy made custom text/footer banner
* Easy made ghosting/bright configuration
* Easy made rom patching.
* Easy made rom patching.
* Easy made whole process!
* Easy made whole process.


==User guide==
Requires Microsoft .NET framework 4.5 to use.


'''Requeriments:''' Microsoft .NET framework 4.5
To use, follow the steps in program:
* Rom file selection - Pick a .gba file.
* VC game icon and name - Complete the fields for the info boxes.
* VC GBA 3D banners - The program will load some default values based on previous step, you can replace them if preferred. Then edit the banner or import a custom one.
* VC parameters - Configuration of the GBA VC.
** Ghosting Adjustment - Set to 0xFF (None) for a non-ghosting game.
** Color Config - Set to Original (no dark filter) to disable the dark filter at all.
** Sleep patch - Attempt to apply a sleep patch to the rom. Some (most of) games won't even launch when applying sleep patch, so be careful with it.


'''Tutorial:'''
Press the Finish button to generate the CIA file. Then you can install it using any CIA manager.
You'll just follow the steps in program. But just in case:

Open the program. You'll see this screen:
* Fixed the bug that causes line breaks on the Title name and publisher to become question marks.

Press '''Open GBA File''' button. It'll prompt you to pick a .gba file.
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F279Gn2y.png&hash=d5f43e4b0ada6ce14b9f677f7d9a9379|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]


For this tutorial I'll pick the game [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castlevania:_Aria_of_Sorrow Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow].
'''v1.6'''
 
* Added: Automatic title screen and/or box cover download! Thanks to @[https://gbatemp.net/members/natinusala.318768/ natinusala]!
The application will try to guess the parameters for step 1 reading the rom file. If there's no luck with that, the application will search the rom in an offline database.
 
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FgQyiILw.png&hash=6b15e8d7aa60a2e02f69d384c3e0f7bb|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]
 
 
When you pick a rom you'll be able to go to '''Step 2 (icon and name)'''.
 
</div>
 
</div>
 
'''Step 2:'''
 
<div class="ToggleTriggerAnchor bbCodeSpoilerContainer">
 
<span>Spoiler: <span class="SpoilerTitle">VC game icon and name</span></span>
<div class="SpoilerTarget bbCodeSpoilerText">
 
This is the '''Step 2''' main screen:
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F4fbdQR8.png&hash=275af98b5d93829e741833cb8ba0f202|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]
 
All the fields are explained in the info boxes, but let me know if something doesn't understand.
 
Complete the fields making the most legit as possible (if you want to). ''For example'':
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FwvdTBUa.png&hash=53151178b97d8f655f60418100549163|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]
 
I used a title screen screenshot in it's original size as icon (the program will automatically stretch it).
 
When you complete all the fields you'll able to go to '''Step 3 (3d banner)'''.
 
</div>
 
</div>
 
'''Step 3:'''
 
<div class="ToggleTriggerAnchor bbCodeSpoilerContainer">
 
<span>Spoiler: <span class="SpoilerTitle">VC GBA 3D banners</span></span>
<div class="SpoilerTarget bbCodeSpoilerText">
 
This is the '''Step 3''' main screen:
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FlOT0Jvt.png&hash=146df0ebd0a757891f0eaf4d76251f17|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]
 
''Note:'' The program will load some default values (based on those in '''Step 2'''), but you can anyway replace these default values with ohter ones.
Example: if you want the icon and 3D banner to have different images, then first complete '''Step 2''' with the icon image that you want and then complete '''Step 3''' with the banner image that you want. Otherwise if you are too lazy or you want the same standard as legit VC CIA, leave it as is.
 
For this example, I'll let the same banner image as the icon one, but <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">I'll edit the bottom banner, importing a custom one I made with GIMP (using the '''import and use custom footer image''' option):
 
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FRgLq1Hd.png&hash=a7101c1c0f038ad4416f8c4fb9f6be50|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]�
You can also make your own text banner without leaving the application, as a quick and easy solution. You can change the font type, size, and brightness. Also there's a preview of that text banner (ignore the red borders, they won't be there in the console).
 
Doing my changes for this example:</span>

When you complete or modify all the fields you'll able to go to '''Step 4 (VC parameters)'''.

'''Step 4:'''

<div style="text-align: center">

</div>
'''Yaaay! A lot of options!
 
Ghosting Adjustment:''' Set to ''0xFF (None)'' for a non-ghosting game.
 
'''Color Config:''' Set to ''Original (no dark filter)'' to disable the dark filter at all.
 
'''Sleep patch:''' Attempt to apply a sleep patch to the rom. Some (most of) games won't even launch when applying sleep patch, so be careful with it.
 
For this tutorial, I want no ghosting, dark filter disabled, and sleep patch activated.
 
[[File:proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fh8dbR1J.png&hash=aabda19a5be1d71e9b1580999e903a31|class=bbCodeImage LbImage|[?IMG]]]
 
Once we have everything ready, press '''Finish''' button.
 
That's it! The application will ask you where do you want to save the CIA file and It took some seconds to create it.
When the CIA is ready, the application will let you know it.

Then you can install the CIA in sdcard using any CIA manager (actually I use the new FBI).
