So i've been using my second hand Switch for a while, having a backup from when it had 2.3 OFW, and now running 8.0.1 with Choi without burning fuses. My issue is that the original owner had a user tied to the console, so I always have to choose which user to play with when starting a game, and it is starting to annoy me. I've been thinking about if "system initialize" in Choidujournx would remove the user to let me start all over?

In the system setting you can change the setting for it not to prompt you to pick a profile when loading a game if you only have one profile on it.

Well, that's the problem, I have two profiles, my own, and the previous owner has one as well.

Yes the system initialize deletes everything. Users, games, saves, WiFi settings, etc. Starts like your switch turning on for first time ever again.

So, if I backup my saves and run the firmware upgrade through Choi again, with system initialize checked, will I be able to use my switch afterwards without connecting it to the internet?

WITHOUT connecting to the internet sure.

If you connect there is a very small chance you will be banned. The general consensus is the system initialize option in ChoidujourNX gets your switch 99.9% clean but since we don't fully understand what data Nintendo collects or how it's possible but unlikely they will know you used cfw

If your banned you can't use the Nintendo online subscription or download games off e-shop

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

    Some temporary storage

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
