Does anyone know how to find build id with atmosphere? On sxos, it will appear in sxos menu. However on atmosphere, Edizon only shows title ID.

buildID are the first 8bytes of the
game's build ID formatted as ascii hexadecimals.

I see. I finally found a game where it shows me the codes (Zelda botw). I guess the build_id is wrong. Any idea how can I find my game version’s build_id?

Can we do memory scan with this cheat feature ?
Say, if there is no cheat code available, can I try to scan the game memory (like Cheat Engine on PC) and edit the value ?

i havent looked into this that close yet . but as long as i will have the exact answer ill add this to the tutorial , for now use cheats you can find outhere on the inet xD

but as i see it you take 1st 8 bytes of the title update header ??? and convert them to ascii hexadecimals and youll get your build_id , chek it out and report back , honsetly not sure yet . maybe someone else got the answer

Looking more close into this i have found out that next release of Edizon will show Build_ID if you want to use this feture now, you can use latest Nightly build of Edizon from here http://bsnx.lavatech.top/edizon/
