<h2>Description</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p> <code>maketad</code> is a tool for generating TAD files (<code>.tad</code>) from the specified SRL file. TAD files are used to import applications into the system memory.</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
TAD files for TWL that are created with this tool can only be imported
|
||
into TWL development kits. The TWL-SDK environment cannot be used to
|
||
create TAD files that can run on retail TWL hardware.
|
||
</p>

<h2>Downloads</h2>

|
||
Standard <code>maketad</code> application. These create TAD files to be imported to development hardware through <a href="/dsidev/twlnmenu.html">TwlNmenu</a>. Output TADs will be encrypted with the Wii debug key (<code>A1604A6A7123B529AE8BEC32C816FCAA</code>).

Updater <code>maketad</code> application. These create TAD files to be used when compiling <a href="/dsidev/twlsystemupdater.html">Twl SystemUpdater</a>. Output TADs are encrypted with an unknown key and so they cannot be decrypted.

<h2>Using the Tool</h2>
|
||
<h3>Start Command</h3>
|
||
<p><code>% maketad [OPTION]... SRLFILE [-o outputFile]</code></p>
|
||
<p><code>SRLFILE</code> is the ROM file to import into NAND Flash. Specify an <code>.srl</code> file.</p>
|
||
<p>Use the <code><b>-n</b></code> option to output an SRL with an
|
||
encapsulated TAD file rather than just a TAD file. Once the DS card to
|
||
which this SRL has been written is inserted in the DS card slot of the
|
||
TWL unit, you can import from the encapsulated TAD file by starting the
|
||
TwlNmenu imported into system save memory.</p>
|
||
<p>With the <code><b>-o</b></code> option, the file name of the output file can be designated. If nothing is specified and the <code><b>-n</b></code> option is <i>not</i> specified, the title name saved in the SRL file with a TAD extension is created. If the <code><b>-n</b></code> option is specified, the title name saved in the SRL file with a TAD.SRL extension is created.</p>
|
||
<p>The <code><b>-s</b></code> option allows outputting a TAD with a reserved gamecode (eg. system titles). This feature is unlisted from the help menu.</p>
|
||
<p>The <code><b>-h</b></code> option displays simple instructions.</p>
|
||
<h2>Return Values</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Returns 0 when execution completes normally.<br>
|
||
The following are possible reasons for the function to fail.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>The provided DLLs (see download section) were not found
|
||
</li><li>Nothing is specified with the <code>-o</code> option
|
||
</li><li>An unknown option was found
|
||
</li><li>Characters other than those from ASCII code <code>0x21</code> through <code>0x7e</code> are included for the game code
|
||
</li><li>A code reserved by the system is being used in the game code (please use <code>-s</code> to bypass the error)
|
||
</li><li>The file is not of the type <code>*.srl</code>
|
||
</li><li>The SRL file cannot be opened or read
|
||
</li><li>An SRL file has not been specified
|
||
</li><li>A TAD file cannot be output
|
||
</li><li>The SRL filename is too long
|
||
</li></ul>
