Unable to start software after updating FW to 19.0.0 and Atmosphere to 18.0.0 (Pre-release)

[VanCityGames]

As the title says. Using Fusee.bin also does not work, any game I have downloaded through tinfoil does not work.

*harhar* Sigpatches? *harhar*

“and at that moment he realized, that this whole time he had been a fool, that the answer was right in front of him all along.”

I genuinely scoffed at myself when it worked after updating them

 

[Bagel Le Stinky]

I have the same issue except I did update the sigpatches and it still doesn't work

What versions of atmosphere/bootloader are you using? And what’s your Firmware version? All up to date?

FW 19.0.0, Atmosphere 1.8.0, Hekate 6.2.2

FW 19.0.0, Atmosphere 1.8.0, Hekate 6.2.2

Try using Fusee.bin as a payload, the prerelease still has some bugs

Like instead of Hekate? because I do have the latest fusee.bin in my /bootloader/payloads folder

Yes, if it doesn’t work I’m not sure of anything else, someone else might be able to hep but that’s what other people have told me and it worked,

Unfortunately did not work for me

Okay I think I just need to wait for a new version of Atmosphere because I just opened a game just fine, it's just my homebrew apps/forwarders that don't work.

Forwarders have issues on fw19. You need to remake them for fw19 compatibility. There is also some testing going on with sys-patch being able to patch Atmosphere so that old forwarders work again. I don't know how that goes.

How yo do that? and sorry for the ignorance... but that can be fix installing the game again or what?

No. But there is a fix.

I downloaded a hats repack for my Friends switch and old forwarders work. I'm not sure what it is maybe the new sys-patch 1.5.5... but it works. Even his old tinfoil is working I had to use the aplet version.

In personally don't use the packs on my own switch. I like to edit the config files and put all the apps on myself so I know exactly what's on the switch and what it does. But if I don't see any info on why or what fixed this I'll do some experimenting and find out.

I also got same problem like you. Fw 19.0.1 atmos 1.8.0 updated atest sigpatch and syspatch but unable to launch any game. Any solution for this ?

Where did you download the patches from? Did you put them onto your SD card correctly? And what do you use to launch Atmosphere?

I'm now having the exact same issue. Switch was remodded using https://switch.hacks.guide/ and sigpatches from the thread here at GBAtemp. The games worked perfectly, cheats and all. I was playing SSBU, and decided to create a cheat code for it, so I installed gen2 and dmnt forks using breeze, and upon rebooting my Switch I now get this error upon opening only SOME games, namely SSBU and Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection. Metroid Dread boots fine, and is non-legit like the rest of the aforementioned games. I have ruled out microSD card corruption by verifying SSBU's integrity using DBI. I have wiped all dmnt-related files from my microSD card. The issue persists. I am at my wit's end here. Any advice on how to proceed?

Found the solution. Installing the NSP separately didn't work, but join them (game+dlc+update) into a single XCI with NSC Builder and using that output XCI to DBI worked. Look for a tutorial on YouTube to build with NSC Builder. Isn't that difficult.

My solution was reinstalling sigpatches. SimpleModManager deleted my sigpatches when trying to remove my Randovania seed using it, by deleting the entire exefs_patches folder instead of only the mod subfolder within it. Bug in the software, and a glaring one at that. The odd thing is that not all of my .nsp installed games were refusing to boot, only some of them. But yes, it was sigpatches missing that was the issue.

with reinstall sigpatches do you mean to download it from here

gbatemp.net/download/sys-patch-sysmodule.39124/

and paste and replace to the root of the SD? If so, that didn't worked. I tried like reinstalling the syspatches like 3 or 4 times. Only my method worked for me.

Uhhhh, no, don't use sys-patch. Here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/sigpatches-for-atmosphere-hekate-fss0-fusee-package3.571543/
