Hacking Sigpatches for Atmosphere (Hekate, fss0, fusee & package3)

[froggy55]

Even with sys-patch 1.5.8. Still getting "failed to apply 'nosigcheck'

if you are only using syspatch you need to remove the nosigchk line from your system ini file or you will get this error if you are trying to use both you need to wait for the new sigpatches to be released

that game is working for me. All are working now. you will have to redownload atmosphere, use sys-patch esfix posted above, install with awoo installer. Are you using only sys-patch? There is no need for sigpatches. The only games that need to be reinstalled are games that you installed while the patches were not working, Anything previously installed before the update should work.

that is exactly what i did i have downloaded and installed asm 1.10 and the sys patch esfix i uninstalled eow reinserted my game cart then launched awoo installer and installed the update what happens after its done is when i launch i get the flashing please wait until i turn on airplane mode then it works the other method is unlinking with linkhalo but that is not an option as there are games that need a linked account if asm has been updated again can you post the link to the latest i would be willing to try that thanks

well ive heard that atmosphere has been silently updated twice. sys-patch had 3 before it finally worked. If it was 6 hours ago that you downloaded atmosphere i would maybe try again. It is all working now

21.0.0 Nothing's working, everything's up to date: Atmosphere, homebrew, and I'm using the ESFix system patch, and the games are displaying a "Please wait" message while blinking.
