Yes they did. Got RetroArch Setup and working Properly.
Now if only I can find the Instructions on how to get the In-Game Menu, for example, to find Cheats or to use Cheats

- and + at the same time. Cheats you have to find by yourself, of course.
Do note that N64 emulation and such won't work unless you boot the HB Launcher from an installed game instead of the album. The process is the same, just hold R while opening an installed game.
Opening retroarch from the album doesn't allocate enough RAM to it. But then again, that's just for more "heavy duty" emulation.

- and + are not working for some reason. On Atmosphere 0.9.1 (Latest)
- and + are for retroarch games, so your CFW shouldn't have anything to do with it.
You on 1.7.7? Although this shouldn't matter because all versions of it had - and + as it's command. Maybe check the config/options, perhaps you changed the bindings on accident. Or maybe downloaded from some non-official source?
 
Oh, sorry. I know how to do RetroArch. But for Switch Games Cheats, am I correct that I have to follow this Guide?

I don't use Atmosphere, but that looks like it, yeah.
In my case, to activate cheats and whatnot I can just press the home menu with the game open, open the cheat software and edit it on the spot. So maybe it will be the same for you.
Also depending on the game, there are some nice save managers out there already.

OK, got the method of getting Cheats. Seems to be working perfectly :D .

I know how to find Cheats, but this is going to take a while to figure out :yayswitch:
 
Anyone have any idea how to remove a User from a Switch System????? Keep getting Errors when I try to. I followed this Suggestion, but I get too many Errors and Crashes with it.

Question:
Settings/System/Format Options - Initialize Console
If I do this, will Atmosphere and AutoRCM be OK?


Edit:........OK......never mind. Was looking around, and it seems that the Crashes and Errors might have been due to the Saves not being Deleted properly. After doing it myself, it is looking like everything is working perfectly........so far.

OK, I tested 1 NSP, which Installed Perfectly. But I can not run it. Says to Link a Nintendo Account, but I cant do that, because the DNS Settings are Changed. Also talking about a System Update
Get this program called Kefir Updater. Once you add it to the Switch folder on the sdcard. Go to the Homebrew menu and just click add linked account. That took care of the problem I had trying to play Bloodstained: Rituals of the Night.
I thought it was a bad file but no. That made another profile for my switch and it works. Just backup all your saves with Checkpoint. If you have game saves.

Couple concerns:
1: Not sure what it is, but using Cheats on NSMBUD, and I got a Save (1-3 Castle), I had only a couple Cheats Selected. But then, when I went back to it later, it had every Cheat Enabled, and I was stuck Playing as some weird Character (Nabbit). When I had the Cheats I wanted back, I try using Mario, but it did not show him, and in Level, it was stuck.
2: I tried running Doom, and when it says to use the User Account, I tried on both where I did not use it, and where I used the Kefir Account......
- Skipped: Just stays stuck at the "Notice - Loading title storage"
- User Account: Keeps getting a Error/Crash

3: What is - Invalid PFSO ? Error 0x236e02 (Possibly not on Required FW??? )
- If so, can I assume that the Manual FW Update Method on switch.homebrew.guide works for 8.1.0 ?

Edit: Got around to testing my other Switch that was on the Possibly Patched Listings.
NOTE: Nothing showed up on my Screen. However the TegraRcmGUI showed this. I take it by the 0x0000 Byte, it is most def Patched?

Any reason why a Game would suddenly start saying it is Corrupt? Updated Atmosphere and Hekate. Game was working perfectly. Now....... :nayps3:

Edit: OK.....might need to put the SigPatches in there to Overwrite any Issues.

Would I be able to Upgrade the MicroSD by doing a 1:1 Copy/Clone? Like with EaseUS Partition Master?

Found another Doom source and it works........but if I try to see if EdiZon has Cheats for it, it Closes out.

Edit: Fixed the Game. Do NOT Update the Bootloader with HeKate_ctcaer 5.0.0 Nyx 0.8.0 . I removed that and put back HeKate ctaer 4.10.1, and it works perfectly after reinstalling the Game.
