SX_Installer_App.jpg

As you all know by now, when TX released their SX OS v2.4 earlier this week, there was a video released alongside it, and in it people quickly noticed there was a new app called 'SX Installer', well it was not fully ready then, but now is available for all to enjoy! :)
After a successful SX OS launch earlier this week (to support firmware v6.2) many of our users were asking where the SX Installer was that was teased in our new 'Features Showcase' video that was also released. :)

With great excitement we present to you SX Installer v1.0 – Now Available for download at: –> sx.xecuter.com

This full featured app takes care of installs and so much more! In fact, an overview manual is now being prepared along with screenshots and detailed information on how you can better utilize all of the features we have packed into it.

This manual will be available on our SX Portal page when it is completed, in the meantime we have opened up a dedicated 'support forum' for the app, and have decided to release it now, to get it in the hands of our loyal SX OS users so you can right away start enjoying the many functions and features it has to offer.

Basically, at its core SX Installer is an advanced NSP Installer, that allows you to simply list, view, in one easy step, automatically install all your NSPs, along with the matching Game Updates, and DLC Packages, and these can be search and grabbed from many locations, including: FTP, HTTP, NUT Server (separate app on your PC), SD, USB HDD and NAND.

But that is not all it can do, as you can see from the quick overview below of the main functions. SX Installer has the ability to directly launch XCI games, and even launch your Classic Retro 'Game ROMs' for various different emulators installed, and of course your favorite homebrew apps. It even has a built-in file browser!

PLEASE NOTE: (currently .xci launching is only supported in firmware 5.x or below – 6.x support is on it's way!)

To get started, unpack the downloaded sxinstaller.zip and move all of the contents to the root of your SD card. The "sx.nro" file should be stored in /switch/sx/

Below is just a quick overview of the main functions of our SX Installer App:
  • Ability to show titles in table view, or icon cover view.
  • Install NSP's from FTP, HTTP, NUT, SD, USB HDD, and NAND.
  • Ignores firmware requirement when installing.
  • Ability to queue multiple title installs.
  • Ability to search titles.
  • Ability to list and delete tickets.
  • Ability to export all title keys installed on the system.
  • Ability to overclock to install faster in some situations.
  • UI Translation into 12 languages.
  • Title meta-data translation into 12 languages.
  • Downloads and displays game artwork (internet connection required).
  • Ability to list, view, and delete application records (lets you uncleanly forcibly uninstall a DLC or update)
  • Ability to list installed titles, and launch them (launching is 5.x and below only)
  • Ability to list XCI's mount them, and auto-launch (launching is 5.x and below only)
  • Ability to list and install new games available, with the option to install all new games
  • Ability to automatically install the latest patch and all DLC with a game.
  • Ability to protect users from running malicious unsigned code accidentally by blocking all unsigned code installation unless explicitly enabled.
  • Ability to list and install newer updates available for your game(s), with the option to install all updates
  • Ability to list and install newer DLC available for your game(s), with the option to install all DLC
  • Ability to list all incomplete installs (like when the SD gets corrupted, or you swap SD cards without copying data), with option to reinstall all of them.
  • Ability to list and launch NES, SNES, N64, GB, GBA, SMS, SG, SCD, GG, and SG1000 RetroArch games.
  • List and launch Homebrew apps
  • File browser that lets you explore your file systems, delete files (SD only), and copy files (only SD is writable)

That entire post was deflection and you avoided answering a very simple question. So lets try this again.

Your app dz, which you later renamed to tinfoil does *not* use tinfoil source, but sx installer, which has been publicly admitted to use tinfoil dz instead uses source from the original tinfoil?

Is that accurate?

Why the need to use the original source from tinfoil if they got tinfoil dz's source to base sx installer on?

That is not correct, no-one used any tinfoil code. I answered your question, you just do not seem happy about it because I didnt admit to killing Jimmy Hoffa.

Also installing from external usb, can sx installer install nsp from the USB?

There's nothing more to discuss. I just wanted clarification on this issue since blawar is giving logically conflicting statements. You cannot base your work off another open source project unless you use the code from that project. If he is going to claim the "Took inspiration from" route by "reading the code" then "writing my own" then don't say "Based off the work of" as that is not accurate.

Either you based your work off others code or you did not. He's claiming he did not, yet saying at the same time he did. He should correct his statement since as it stands its incredibly ambigous. Claiming its not doesn't clarify anything, it just muddies the conversation more.
What? Of course you can write code inspired by another project without copying it. If I want to port a C++ or Java app to Python, I can draw inspiration and literally cannot copy their code. Not to mentioned with consoles like the Switch that uses system calls to the OS for things, there's only so many w-- you know what? No. I'm not getting dragged into this. I don't know what you're doing or why, if you find this entertaining or if it's some sort of compulsive crusade, but you're not pulling me into it. Blocked.

I am just tired of the incessant nitpicking at TX.
I have a right to defend TX and any developer if I so choose.

Just tried this app on my Switch, 6.2, SX OS 2.4 Beta - it opens up and basically freezes at "Checking for updates sdmc:/Switch/Sx/DB/TITLES.us.en.json
(this file is not even present)
It doesn't go further than that. Any fix?

It's connecting to the internet to download the file. Seems to have a high time out period. Is your Switch connected to internet? It should be as long as you have Stealth mode enabled.

Verify capital letters.
Remember it's Linux so it actually matters.

Since many of you are are new to "the scene," I used to be the owner and administrator of PSX-SCENE and several sites before that. When Sony went after Geohot (and others) for the PS3 hack and subsequent modchip products they tried to use posts from my forum as the bulk of evidence in their case. I talked to a lot of lawyers and even the EFF during that period of time. There's plenty that went on that has never been made public even to this day. Let me spell this all out in a way that, hopefully, you can all finally understand.

As I said in a previous post, Nintendo makes no distinction between homebrew and piracy. Nintendo makes no distinction between exploits and piracy. Nintendo makes no distinction between emulators and piracy. These are all considered illegal activities in the eyes of Nintendo, who are just as likely to go after members of Switchbrew as they are the authors of these "homebrew" apps on Github or the admins of GBATemp or the developers of Retroarch or Team Xecuter. And they are far more aggressive in protecting intellectual property rights than Sony. So, by all means, keep drawing attention to yourselves. You can argue about licenses, stolen code, and some sort of honor system or moral code that has never and will never exist in the "homebrew" community until you turn blue. There is no such thing as a "license" for any code used in any of this stuff that would stand up in court of law. If you end up there, I can assure you it will not be to protect your "license."

seems good, just 2 questions:
1.-Is this a stolen Homebrew?
2.-Can this install XCI? When I select a XCI it just loads it

1. It isn't proven it's stolen homebrew but it probably is. I don't see TX writing a N64 and PSX emulator.
2. No. It isn't an XCI to NSP converter.
