Hey everyone :)

Some context:
I somehow can't figure out how to activate/access my cheats anymore.
I usually used Teslas Overlay menu with the edizon overlay to use cheats, however, lately no cheats would be shown anymore when I started new Games.
("new" meaning installed lately, not particularly recently released)
I thought, well maybe there are no cheats for that game, however, I got sceptical when even Pokemon Arceus (whcih I've cheated on previously) wouldnt have any cheats anymore...

The current state:
- Edizon Overlay shows "No cheats loaded" for every game
- Breeze says "No Cheats available for BID:........"
- Edizon SE schows "No cheats available for this game"
- When used Tinfoil -> y-key(Info) -> y-key (cheats) its just a blank list
-AIO-Switch Updater -> Tools -> Cheats-Menu -> Show installed cheats: Shows every installed cheats (which is weird enough)

Current System:
- 14.1.2 System on EmuNAND
- 1.3.2 Atmosphere
- Latest Sigpatches applied

What I've tried:
- Reinstalled Atmosphere (deleted the whole folder beforehand, so no "contents/.../cheats" paths were available anymore)
- Reinstalled 14.1.2
- Downloaded and extracted cheats manually
- (Re-)Downloaded cheats database via breeze
- (Re-)Downloaded cheats database viaAIO-Switch-Updater


Thanks in advance and kind regards :)

EDIT:
I just realized that the Title ID for e.g. Kakarot is off on the download from AIO-Switch updater:
The download gave me fbe93aaaa4c11567.txt
Whereas the BID is 475724CE67A140AE

The valid Build IDs i found were:
98217279AAF870FA (v0)
C652EC8D0928BAC0 (v1)
B15B2DC33A8807FE (v2)
812571FBAE127537 (v4)
475724CE67A140AE (v5 > now, the one I am on)

I have to investigate further...

Every cheat manager will ask atmosphere whether it loaded any cheats. Most of them will just tell you what atmosphere told them. Some will look for alternatives. What you need to fix first is to have cheats with atmosphere. Google for details, I am not going to reiterate it again as I have already done so too many times.

Well, after I checked that the Build IDs didn't match I investigated further and realised.... The game(s) just had been updated and/or there are/were no cheats for the build ID I was using....

What is same? A quick way to see if contents folder is the problem is simply renaming it. It will not affect your game installation

So many people that ask for help think that them providing precise information isn’t important. I won’t be surprised that some don’t even have a unpatched Switch. After all the help about how to set up their SD were in vain and no body is the wiser about why there is this simple reason that no body could see as it wasn’t there for anyone who wish to help to see

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
