I don't know what you're using it for, but you probably don't have to do more than rename it, depending on your use of it.

what do you need it for ? I'll help you ... can't send that kind of file on this site.
i cant play xenoblade and dragonball figtherz anymore in any way cuz of compatibility issues, the onlysolution isto use v7 or higher keys but i cant have them cuz im a sxos usser, the switchonly register custom xci games but not with all dlc and since this damn machine records data it doesnt let me play them EVENif i have all update and dlc installed apart, i have been looking for a fix for monts and cant find one, seems the problem is the keys

the default 3 files used from the "prod.keys " are keys.txt prod.keys and keys.dat.... apps like tinfoild used to require this file to work properly read info about your homebrew that you use both on and off the switch such as title orgizers or nsp to xci converters and such they don't all just use keys.txt so I recommend saving the prod.keys to OneDrive or a cloud service but making 3 copies of the original by right clicking the prod.keys file and choosing copy then right click same prod.info again and choosing paste 2 more times, then renaming them to the file extensions I mentioned.... usualy if 1 extention failes to gety the desired outcome for things like nut server just try one of the others it will probly let you know about the error. and then you can rplace rename as needed.. or just copy all 3 files at once you shouldn't get error if all types are covered that the extension could be as its essentualy the same file... I hope this helps :)

I am not a SXOS user , but with ATMO you do not need a keys file to play.. I am pretty sure SXOS is the same. I am pretty sure you have some thing else going on. what firmware are you on ? and you do have the latest SXOS ?

Sound like you updated the games past the required firmware that you are using. also v7+ keys have not been found and that is what SEPT is for...... not sure is SXOS uses SEPT



Also I am no expert , but I have helped a lot of people already

If you use lockpick_rcm correctly and overwrite your keys on firmware 8.1 you should get all keys even 8---------. read the prod.keys file and see if its complete by opening it with notepad. then make sure you have all correct espatches for your firmware.... as I think your issue is due tov that and as long as you trun lockpick_rcm latest release it will get almost all your needed "keys" that relevant. I played and installed both those titles np and also I am not sure if its still required but print your tsec keys using hekate ang your kfuse also. that's all I cn say for that and I wouldn't recommend it totally but you can google complete keys.txt file for 8.1 and pretty much get the same file......

if that's the case... your saveganes atre a sperate file on your switch... go into system settings reove just the game data not the save data and then get a verified xci or nsp source of the xenoblade andreinstall it should just load your save data... yo could load edizon and make a backup of your save data then do 1st thing I said and remove all save and game content... then reinstall and restore save with edizon

no it doesn't turn it off. you will still need a payload dumping method.... like rcm_gui or rcm loader sx loader dongles... if you can reach hb menu you can also install payload launcher from the app store and then browse to it on your sd card anjd run it from there but it doesn't turn off auto rcm…. and if I remember correctly the latest atmosphere has reset abilty kinda coldboot option meaning in some cases the system can even be reset and as long as auto rcm is 'on" it will perform complete rebootv sequence... 1 more thing make sure you read lockpick_rcm methoud instruction to perforn action correctly on the screen like press power or volume+ make sure you chpoose correctly.. it wont be bad it just wont give you the file you need

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

if you hold vol- wheb rebooting into sx os firmware it will reload the sx os menue as well.... atmosphere using hekate not rcm_primary.bin is the opposite vol+ you may need to be quick in your situation witout a payload duping method but it can be done it the boot cycle... if keyed right... then if needed you can turnm rcm off on and enable disable emunand basicly access presystem options

the xci has to be updated to support new firmware... if you updated that's your issue.. wich is the main reason I stay away from "custom xci" look for dlc unlocker that may solve your problem not sure if available as not always but do not use the same custom xci with dlc unlocker

custom xci files are rare and in most cases not updated every time a new firmware is released. my experience with this I can give as an example is the patched youtube app it would break after almost if not all firmware revsions… wich is why I keep mine on the real nand and use emmunand for roms and hb but that's another story... you will probly have to find a new version of the custom xci file that states firmware compateblity because regular updates usualy cant be successfully applied to custom xci.... its most cases if xci not updated game wont work you need real files and updates and dlc unlockers… that's the best way to go.... if you reinstall the real version and it needs to be updated you can just choose to run without updating.... or look into a solution like hbgshop… but that's just 1 example... and it has mixed reviews. so if you go that route its on you..... wether it worked for me is mute.....

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.

    nvm it does support mine

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
