3DS FBI Link for Mac: Seamlessly transfer CIAs to your 3DS running FBI with our user-friendly graphical interface. Enjoy advanced features that outshine servefiles and Boop.
Benefits over Boop or servefiles
- Just double-click on a CIA. No WINE or command line needed.
- Send CIA files from anywhere on your computer. They don't have to be in the same folder. And yes, we do this in a smart way.
- Uses a random available port. We don't depend on using port 8080.
- Send to multiple 3DSes. If you're testing apps or otherwise, just add 'em all and get going.
- Mix and match local and internet files. Use links to CIAs on github together with files you have on your computer.
Other features to note
- It seems pretty fast. I'm able to send files at up to 1.3MB/s on my New 3DS. This is close to its wireless speed limits.
- Thanks to Boop, we also attempt to autodetect the 3DS, so you don't have to enter its IP address.
Requirements
- Nintendo 3DS with FBI 3DS
- MacOS X 10.13 or higher
Installation
- Copy 3DS FBI Link app to your Applications Folder
Usage
- Open FBI on 3DS. Choose "Receive URLs over the network."
- Open app on your Mac.
- If your 3DS is not already listed, click '+' and enter its information, as listed on the FBI screen.
- Add any files or URLs you would like. Files can also be dragged and dropped or opened
To-dos & questions
- More complete edge condition checking (emoji in filenames, connectivity checking)
- Support for multiple network connections
- Auto-updating or update checking functionality
- Auto-scrolling the status field; other UI improvements.
- Create a Apple developer-signed version, so it's easier to launch.
