Homebrew Homebrew app Ultrahand Overlay - The fully craft-able overlay executor

[randompengu]

I'm trying to find a way to make an Ultrahand package that allows me to reboot to specific HOS, Linux or Android options, as well as payloads from the payload folder. However, my current implementation only works for HOS based options (sys/emuMMC, stock). Here's the github issue I posted a couple of days ago with more info:
github[com]/ppkantorski/Ultrahand-Overlay/issues/223
I'm asking here since a guy said here is pretty active.

you can use Studious Pancake (https://github.com/HookedBehemoth/studious-pancake or Fork with Mariko support: https://github.com/btc08gh/studious-pancake) for guide on how to do it.

Does this show options from hekate_ipl.ini plus options in /bootloader/ini or only from the first file?

need help with an issue. i'm trying to get my sysdvr running and was having no issues at all with ultrahand and sysdvr previously, after updating sysdvr to 6.2 and ultrahand to 1.8.2, i can no longer get sysdvr to run. ive reached out to the creator of sysdvr on his discord but he said he doesnt know how to fix it as he doesnt use a sysmodule manager.

any help would be greatly appreciated

Remove Tesla, you don't need it when you have Ultrahand.

You didn't replaced files when installing

You didn't replaced files when installing

ok i just got the new ovl file and nx loader files and replaced it on my sd card. and im confused about the "https://github.com/ppkantorski/Ultrahand-Packages" it says "

• Place your custom `package.ini` package file in your Ultrahand package directory (`/switch/.packages/<PACKAGE_NAME>/`). This file will contains the commands for your custom Ultrahand package.
  • See Ultrahand Packages for a comprehensive list of known packages.
• Your commands will now show up on the packages menu within Ultrahand." but im not sure how to use any of those packages that let me make custom commands?

sorry for the late reply, yeah I did. The only thing I had to change was

reboot boot {ini_file_source{*}}

to

reboot ini {ini_file_source{*}}

in my package.ini. Damn.
This happened in Github Issues. Either I am stupid and didn't read the guide properly, or I am stupid and didn't read the guide properly. The point is it's working with everything now.

ini_file_source /bootloader/hekate_ipl.ini
filter config
reboot boot '{ini_file_source(*)}'

Do I have to edit like this?
