TX Releases Another Update To Their SX OS, with the big feature everyone was waiting for 'CARD2' support!

Earlier this weekend, we were informed by TX that they were busy putting the finishing touches on yet another major update to their very popular SX OS, and now with v1.2 you have what everyone was screaming for since the first release, the latest 'card2' games!

It's been a busy week at the Team-Xecuter headquarters, after releasing v1.1 of SX OS we got (yet again) a good amount of feedback from the community.

Let's jump straight into the changes for version 1.2 of SX OS:

• Added Card2 support
  A small dozen (currently released) games were not compatible with SX OS, we tracked down these incompatibilities with these so-called "CARD2" games and fixed them. You can now fully enjoy `Sushi Striker' and other games!

• Added downgraded fuse support
  In v1.1 we added a protection against programming fuses. What was not added was a bypass for the "fuse checks", this has now been addressed. Advanced users who want to enjoy "downgraded" firmwares can now do so!

• Improved homebrew compatibility
  Without going into complicated details, homebrew compatibility has been improved once again. Give your problem homebrew titles another spin, and let us know if any problems remain. We're sure this should be a big improvement.

As always, updating SX OS is simply a matter of replacing "boot.dat" in the root of your microSD card. No need to re-activate your license or anything.

Stay tuned for more updates. We're far from done!

Team-Xecuter, Rocking the Switch in 2018 and beyond!

I was expecting tx's product to cost like $60, $80.
I think it's great value.

@Drejj thx for the help

Im legit considering paying the price for the "premium" cfw...

Having money funding development sure speeds things up!

CEMU is a solid example of this. :x

Is anyone else seeing slow loading times in Mario Tennis? It's mainly the black screens when you leave a stage in adventure mode, I'm noticing they take around 8-9 seconds. Hoping it's not my SD card, I haven't had this problem with any other game (legitimately owned or otherwise)...

That's an issue with the game itself actually. It has heavy load times on legitimate carts as well.

I mean based on the contents of the game, you can tell it was a rushed release.

8-9 seconds is long?

People nowadays
Anyone with a brain would realize that the cart slot is faster than the SD slot

At least you got to spend that time listening to the screechy widdly widdly noises from the tape.

Fucking multi load tape games, those were a serious ball ache.

I know your pain. I remember starting a speccy game loading once and I farted at some point during loading. The *@%!$ failed to load, I kid you not. Must have been the floorboards vibrations. It was, as I remember though, a particularly good fart

That's luxury my friend. Try having to type in the hundreds of lines of code yourself from a magazine before you could play the shitty games. Oh and correcting all the bloody syntax errors before it would even run :/

Yup, just updated . On a funny stupid note:. When I put in my new SD card I updated something in my Switch.... It disabled Auto RCM mode.... So I needed to stick a paperclip in it again.... Took me 3 hours LMAO

Yep for portability its wonderful. No messing with phones, cables and so on.
Just bring your assorted payloads on the micro sd. And you can load whatever you want whenever you want.
If it's OFW, CFW, Lakka, Hekate, Atmosphere etc etc

tx has a payload selector?

Yes, once you start the payload / dongle keep holding volume up.
Then go to options and select external payload. It will check for BIN files in the root of the SD.

Mehh I share that situation but well IF something where to happen to my dedicated a Switch I would be ready for a new one in a heartbeat

This looks like a great product.

I realize Nintendo is on top of the whole piracy thing - ensuring that people who try to play online games that are not legit have their game, account and perhaps switches banned from their online services.

Does anybody have any information regarding getting banned for using the SX Pro etc. while totally offline (i.e. no wireless network setup + airplane mode)... And then booting the regular FW with legitimate game cards to play online?

I wonder if Nintendo is still able to ban people simply for launching SX OS or installing autoRCM... or if they somehow also keep track of if a non legitimate game has ever been loaded on the system in the past (even while offline)..

I read a bit about the certificates etc and it makes sense - but I also wonder how that could effect the used game market and/or library rentals.. I suppose the issue is if a given game certificate is invalid or if a valid one is being used simultaneously on many systems....

Anyway, I might order an SX Pro mostly just to play around with homebrew and emulators for old games etc but Im still worried about being banned even without pirating Switch games....
