From what I’ve gathered from reading loads of stuff, the 2gb partition is in a format which windows can’t read. So to transfer your ROMs, you either need to download them from somewhere like google drive, transfer the files via usb on the doc or use ftp.

Which folder should i transfer them to? Maybe i should make a new folder in the retroarch folder?

I’m not sure. I’ve not actually had chance to try it myself. Maybe just a ROMs folder on the root of the sd card.

I created my EmuMMC with Hekate, is it possible to use the same one with fusee? Any thing i should do beforehand or i can just boot fusee without changing any .ini files?

Hello, I have the following situation... Apparently, after upgrading to Atmosphere 0.9.x (0.9.4 in my last attempt) I have found trouble installing NSPs via USB (Nut) Lithium: it won't open and shows the message "The software was closed because an error occurred". I am on FW 7.0.1 and have the most recent sig/es/kip patches on my SD card (these: https://gbatemp.net/threads/i-heard-that-you-guys-need-some-sweet-patches-for-atmosphere.521164/ ). Any ideas about this? Am I missing something? Should I try downgrading Atmosphere to a previous version?

Something to note is that these NSPs are relatively recent (latest Smash Ultimate Update+DLCs on SD and Crash Team Racing + Update on system memory). Someone told me that the solution may be in upgrading firmware to 8.1.0 , but is it really necessary? I really don't want to mess with firmware unless it's the last option.

I discarded SD card problems because one of the games is launched from system memory and I haven't had any other problems with SD stuff, and I don't use or have installed any cheat engine, so what I say on https://gbatemp.net/threads/the-software-was-closed-because-an-error-occurred.533703/ is discarded too. I checked for corrupted data as well, and found none, and I deleted CTR's save data, and that was discarded as well. Reinstalled plenty of times with stuff from different sources, so don't think these are broken NSPs.

Thank you for your attention.

Where do i put my GBA roms and psp/ps1 stuff

If you are using retroarch, you can put the roms anywhere. When you are loading the rom in retroarch, you can browse to where you put the roms and load whicher you want.

If I update sysnand to 9.0 can I keep everything in emunand as it is? I won’t update it I’ll keep it in 8.1 for a while until everything is supported but I want to access online on sysnand so I just want to make sure that won’t mess up anything on emunand and that I’ll still be able to boot android. Thanks for the info!

Yes, just use the latest hekate release

 

[3dswitch]

what would be the disadvantages in a potential purchase of a used Unpatched Switch (low serial# verified only) that has already been updated to 9.0?

so the fuses would be burned to 9.0 so won't be able to boot below 9.0 via emuNAND or sysNAND(obviously)

as of now we seem to have support but there are unknowns about being hardstuck on 9.0?

 

[A3660537JPN]

OK, awesome. Another dumb question, after I have the keys, where do I put them...? Again, thank you!

You are done.Do not move the key file.You can use Goldleaf anymore.

 

[MegaBloopy]

You have to press USB install on Tinfoil.

there is no usb install screen on tinfoil

 

[bird333]

You can but it won't be clean if you ran cfw on sysnand, sysnand (cfw) and stock ofw share the same nand.

This would be clean. Have you actually tried this with the latest Hekate?

my retroarch is very buggy. I cant even navigate it using directional keys or analog. I downloaded it off the appshop. Is that no recommended?

 

[Hayato213]

What I meant Hekate wouldn't give you a clean NAND, as Hekate doesn't touch Horizon OS, OFW and Sysnand (CFW) are on the same NAND, you have to keep that clean if you want to play online.

 

[Yung_Shyne]

My retroarch crashes and restarts any time i try to choose an option):

Yeah, it still won't install any NSP files. Says firmware mismatch. Apparently it's a bug with the new Goldleaf and fw 9.0. Just gotta wait for an update. Thanks for the response!

I'm not sure if the appshop version is updated. I just got it directly from retroarch nightlies. http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/nintendo/switch/libnx/ Also, make sure you are accessing the homebrew launcher from a game, and not the gallery.

Yes, I know that I need to keep it clean. Have you tried to launch OFW from emunand?

 

[Yung_Shyne]

@Spinsz thanks for the link but what am i looking at? I downloaded the first retroarch link there and put it on the root of my sd card. Should I install it through goldleaf? Does it come with all the bios and cores that allow me to play playstation games or do i have to add that? Thanks!

 

[Hayato213]

Yes, I know that I need to keep it clean. Have you tried to launch OFW from emunand?

Like I said you can't as you need to load up hekate to load up something else. You can't go from emunand to sysnand directly.

I just download the most recent one. All the way at the bottom. Extract it to the the root of your SD card, overwrite any files it says and run retroarch from the homebrew launcher. I didn't really set anything up and ps1 works fine for me. I just select the ps1 emulator, then where it says select rom, I look for the ps1 game and just play it. Sorry if I haven't really helped you. This is just what I did...
