Hi everyone
I have a Switch on OFW 4.1 which I have installed CFW on. I’m not sure if the switch is iPatched as I followed a guide on YouTube to install Atmosphere/Kosmos/Pegascape/Hekate which allowed me to run the exploit and boot into CFW without pushing a payload using a jig on the right joycon rail - I think it uses a web exploit to boot into CFW? I haven’t used the Tegra thingy on my PC to see if the switch can accept payloads as I’ve never had to boot using the jig method as I don’t travel with my switch. The YouTube guide has since been removed along with the channel it was hosted on.
I’m having some trouble adding new games/DLC/updates to my Switch.
Everything’s been fine up until Tinfoil started showing the red screen for Atmosphere users. I was getting around this by changing the name of the “kips” and “bootloader” folders in Goldleaf, accessing Tinfoil, adding new content and then changing the folder names back to “kips” and “bootloader” until I needed to use Tinfoil again, then I’d repeat the process.
The last time I had Tinfoil working I was on an older version of Atmosphere, I changed the folder names and downloaded the ACNH update which allowed you to swim in the sea. When I tried to load ACNH after updating the game wouldn’t boot due to it needing the latest FW. I updated my CFW to the latest using Chiorjoirthingy and the game started fine. I updated Atmosphere to 0.13.0 and tried to boot my switch into CFW but I got a black screen after the Atmosphere logo (I think I need new patches to run this but I don’t know which ones I need?). I’ve managed to get boot into CFW but only on Atmosphere 0.12.0 where I can no longer access the latest version of Tinfoil - even after changing the folder names. I’ve also tried “Awoo Installer” to add games but it shows an error when attempting to add a game I have on the SD Card.
Can anyone tell me what patches I need, I don’t want to do something stupid and cause a brick and with so many different switch models/CFW methods it’s really confusing knowing what to do?
Or how can I add games/DLC’s/updates to my switch using another working method?
Ideally I’d like to update to Atmosphere 0.13.0 with the correct patches and continue to use Tinfoil/JITS as I’m comfortable with that method but I’m open to using anything safe to add new content.
Sorry for the long post, forgive my limited knowledge and thanks in advance. I’ve been getting guides/help from this website since I hacked my WiiU/vWii using a guide from here years ago but have never need help before.
