Mac OS.

In my downloads folder I have:

starforc_nex.zip

starforc.zip

I enter this into terminal:

cd ~/Downloads
unzip starforc_nex.zip

Which creates two folders in my downloads:

_MACOSX (empty)

starforc_nex (contains unzipped files)

Then I enter:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine nexprep.sh

Resulting in this message

xattr: No such file: nexprep.sh

Leaving this still to be entered.

./nexprep.sh starforc

That is strange. The unzip command has created a “ starforc_nex” subfolder and put the files there instead of in the Downloads folder.

Easiest thing to do would be to use Finder to copy the files & folders from the “starforc_nex” folder to Downloads folder.

Then retry the xattr command again.

Nope

An error occurred during the preparation of 'starforc.nex'. Error code: -1.

Ok, you’re close.

That message just means you do not have one of the supported Rom files.

Not sure which one you have. Try using a different Rom file if you can.
