[UPDATE] Goldleaf 0.7 released

Logo.png

As if yesterday's emuiibo update was not enough, @XorTroll has also released a new version of his popular Nintendo Switch multi-tool and title installer! Goldleaf 0.6's biggest feature highlight is, without any doubt, a complete refactor of its USB install functionality: the old and limited one has been replaced with a fully-featured PC file browser. Instead of just sending a single NSP file over USB to your console, you will now be able to see a list of all the storage devices found on the computer running Goldtree - both internal (HDDs, SSDs, etc.) and external (microSDs, USB drives, ...). From there, you will be able to browse anywhere you like and choose whichever files you want to install!

Speaking of browsing, the file manager has also received two noteworthy quality of life improvements: you can now set a folder's archive bit easily (useful if your console's microSD has been formatted as FAT32 to make the Switch's OS treat its contents as a single file) as well as bulk install all NSPs found in a directory. Both options work globally so, yes, thanks to the previously mentioned PC browsing feature, bulk USB installs are now available!

Last, but not least, amiibo dumping is here too. It uses the same format introduced with emuiibo 0.3, making it a breeze to "virtualize" your real figures to use them in games without having to carry them around!

There have also been other smaller changes, like slightly faster NSP install times, skipping a title's required FW by default unless specifically changed in the config, automatically disabling sleep mode to prevent accidental interruptions and a built-in updater. If you want to know everything included in 0.6, you can read the changelog below:
Changelog said:
(My god, it's been 4 months!)

  • NSP installs:
    • As Goldleaf's internal filesystem handling has been completely remade, installs have been internally remade. This apparently results in slightly faster installs, at least in my case.

    • Now the user won't be asked to ignore required firmware version or not, as that can be configured on the config.

    • Sleep-mode is disabled now in order to avoid to interrupt installs.

    • Now all the NSPs inside a directory can be installed in a row (see below).
  • USB installs:
    • USB installs have been improved into a new feature: remote PC browser!

    • Now you can directly browse your PC, plus any drives connected to it, as a regular filesystem, same as SD card or console memory.

    • It is also worth to mention that the new USB command system seems to be way, WAY more stable than any previous USB system in Goldleaf!

    • Anyway, always keep in mind that it might freeze or cause bugs with folders with tons of files.
  • File systems:
    • Presenting the new, remade USB system: remote PC browsing!
      • Instead of a simple connection, it's a whole filesystem implementation over USB.

      • Browse your PC (Windows-only with Goldtree) directly from Goldleaf! Any extra drive inserted browsable by the PC will be browsable here.

      • Since USB drives' support (fsp-usb service in Atmosphere) is still being worked on, you can use this system with drives inserted in your PC in order to browse or install files from there.
    • Two simple, QoL features have been added to filesystems (to directories in this case): the option to install all NSPs within the directory, and the option to set the archive bit on it.
  • UI
    • For now on, Goldleaf main color will continue to be golden, but the "secondary" color along with gold is going to be blue.

    • Therefore, both the icon and the main themes have been changed.
  • Goldleaf auto-updating:
    • Now Goldleaf supports updating itself, since https was supported on dkP. (this means direct access to GitHub for version checking and asset downloading)

    • Nevertheless, now Goldleaf's NSP is a forwarder, what means that just by updating the NRO you will target Goldleaf from HOME menu as always.

    • You can even upgrade the installed version if you want to!

    • As you may suppose, this requires internet connection :)
  • Amiibo dumping support
    • A new option has been added to the main menu, which adds support to dump real amiibos to be used with emuiibo.

    • Obviously, emuiibo 0.3 format is used. Please ensure you're also using the latest emuiibo version!
I know, it's been a while! Go grab it while it's hot!

EDIT: A bug has been found which affects USB NSP installs with a file size of 4 GB or higher. @XorTroll will work on a fix in 0.6.1 but he's unable to work on it now. As such, users with FAT32 cards are advised to keep using the old version until the fix is released.

EDIT 2: Goldleaf 0.6.1 has been released, which fixes the aforementioned bug as well as a few other minor issues and crashes.

EDIT 3: Goldleaf 0.7 has been released and it focuses on improvements and bug fixes over the previous versions. A few new features have also been included, like local account unlinking.

Goldtree is still hot garbage and for obsolete systems. I don't dislike goldleaf but ancient tinfoil 0.2.1 is still the best for usb installs.
I disagree, goldtree works very well. Tinfoil sucks, it messes up your system.

Goldleaf is marking tikets from installed titles as unused... SO be aware!
What does that mean?

I don't kniw why, but old goldleaf thinks most of tickets are unused. This version is much better. But it says I have this ticket unused: 0100FFFFFFFFF000
I never installed such title, so I don't know why goldleaf complains about it

I have this same question. I see this elusive "bulk install" feature mentioned, but no idea how to use it.
I also having the same question, i see no option for bulk installs, i tried to long press to see if it gets highlighted to choose more files but no success.

I found out you can press “y” while having a folder highlighted and then “more options” where you can find “install all NSPs”.

Still have to manually select your SD card and agree to each installation inbetween NSPs, but it works well.

Similar question here i guess. Where can I set the "ignore required firmware version" feature? Is there an .ini or .config file somewhere? I couldn't find any.

@RattletraPM 0.7 have gotten released. Nothing massive more than a ton of bugfixes and EoL improvements but maybe edit this title and add the changelog? :)
I thought everybody forgot about this news thread, especially considering how old it is :rofl2:

Still yeah, I didn't write a new one either because, as you said, 0.7 is mostly fixes/QoL improvements and just a couple of additions, but then I guess silently adding a small footer note to the OP here makes sense in case anybody reads it. I hope that doesn't count as a necrobump tho :ha:

Does anybody know how to install multiple NPS files at once? The feature request regarding this topic is closed but there is not documentation anywhere to be found.

They have to all be in one folder, press y on the folder then more and then select multiple install. (Something like that.)
