SX OS returns after TX arrests with beta version 3.1.0, supports OFW 11.0.0

BF6ECB62-2F35-4628-9A67-0E5A5C7BBA5F.jpeg

It’s alive! Despite the legal issues currently plaguing Team Xecuter, you wont have to worry about support for SX OS. Appearing suddenly on the Xecuter website is a brand new update, bringing SX OS to beta version 3.1.0, and adding support for the latest Nintendo Switch firmware. Also included is support for Flycast fast ram and chain loading alongside the Mariko BEK. The update is available where it usually is uploaded to, but please remember that Team Xecuter hosts illegal content on their website, therefore linking to it is against GBAtemp’s rules.

* Added support for firmware 11.0
* Added support for Flycast fast ram
* Added support for chainloading with Mariko BEK
* Small improvement in USB XCI loading

Users are reportedly updating just fine with the new files, however it’s always wise to wait for further information and confirmation.

I do end up buying the game on cart eventually, when I can afford it. So yes, I buy my games, just not right away. And rarely ever used, unless they're out of print new. I refuse to pay scalper prices.
Then you're a better man than I am, and you have my respect. (not trying to be funny here). Personally, I have a feeling I did my fair share to support the industry, and I enjoy getting a break financially now with my gaming addiction.

Makes me wonder how much of the other reports were just propaganda? I mean nintendo can pretend to be shutting these guys down to stop others from popping up, but here they are.

This report was officially written by USA Departament of Justice. So you're doubting entire USA judiciary.

It was already confirmed that updates in 3.1.0 were done by different person than in previous updates (different update scheme, sloppy code).

I dunno about you guys but I don't upgrade my FW until I find at least one game I really want to try out that needs it. Currently, no games need it at all.

PSP/PS3 era they could decrypt the game keys to work on older firmware but eventually you do have to update your firmware. If you have emmunand firmware doesn't really matter because you can upgrade/downgrade when you want if you don't like the current firmware. I'm going to update my SXOS switch with the latest firmware via emmunand. As for my switch with atmosphere I may just keep it where it's at until I have confirmation firmware 11.0 if 100% bug free

There isn't confirmation it is even being worked on in light of the legal troubles.

There were confirmations for days/weeks, also some indications on psxtools.de because they did twice "unnoficial" updates for SX Save manager...

Wow but they are crazy. They will be very risk of getting arrest and punishment. I will not support them anymore. Atmosphere is fine! And its free!

I assume they cant be arrested by doing/programming something from scratch or/and "copy paste" something from Atmosphere because its not Nintendos code.... the same way how if it was othersise, half of the github repos would shut down, even Microsoft bought them and cant put it down. All the licences and stuff.... its completely legal even if most of it allow piracy or dont prevent it.

@ShadowOne333 @Zaide

....and to all you other clueless people: https://gbatemp.net/threads/sx-os-r...eta-version-3-1-0-supports-ofw-11-0-0.578345/

So.... @godreborn .... when/where is your retirement party?????????????????????

You were already retired. So what will you do to "retire" now that you're actually wrong?
https://gbatemp.net/threads/sx-os-r...eta-version-3-1-0-supports-ofw-11-0-0.578345/

I dealt with many people like him multiple times, they making promises and they will never do it. I respect the "oppponents" more than those with big words that dont stand behind their own words.

Your argument was that because Sony uses FOSS code it's fine that Gateway does.

It's fine that Sony does in the context of the PS-Classic because they respect the license.
Gateway doesn't with SX OS.

Don't get your panties in a twist because someone corrected you.

Completely ignoring "facts" that they lost money for all the years before releasing the Classics.... not my words, thats what the devs/publishers/big companies are saying for decades and here we see Cyberpunk which would be probably one of the best selling games ever released despite having no DRM in place.

BTW remember, 3DS scene started because of Gateway3DS, BigBlueBox who realeased some dumps and later @smea reverse enginerred Gateway etc. Piracy/hacking scene started the hombebrew scene multiple times.....

Wait, so Gary was one of the people arrested? Now I'm confused. He's not even part of the sx team. The news I saw said that SX people were arrested.

I noticed the wifi games crashing with wifi on (but working with wifi off), on the last update even. I haven't even upgraded to 11 yet because nothing I use/play requires it (and I was also waiting for this to drop. I'll probably update later today now).

For those USB loading comments...

He probably was only just a PR, had some kind of connection with them, same/similar how some scene members in piracy groups are "together" but they dont know each other, or how they have connection with some OCH sites and some legal "news site" like torrentfreak and tarnkappe.info which was confirmed multiple times. He probably arrested because he had a company, supposedly money laundering and what not..... not because he just promoted SX OS alone

BTW mounting is not installing, in the homebrew/hacking scene in general you can boot/open rars, or only option to open roms/isos directly (and many other formats too) and mount .3ds/.xci or install from .xci. Basically with .xci you can do both things, booting directly or first "repacking" then booting.....


Music artists now get paid more by streams versus physical album sales. A certain amount of streams is equivalent to album sales due to the ramped piracy for music. Video games are kind of different we are not really there in the "streaming age" but this is where game developers are heading in the next 20 years to ditch the disk all together and go all streaming. Which is why you see PS5 digital version and the Xbox Series-S (all digital consoles). The switch scene for piracy is maybe 5% impact in Nintendo sales out of the 60 million units sold maybe at best 2 million of those units are modded so it isn't really putting a dent in Nintendo's sales. Now if the number was extremly high like like 50% of the units was modded then yes it would effect game development and sales.

I pirate games too but I prefer to buy them my PS4/Xbox One I actually buy the games to support the devs. Also there isn't really a proper mod for those systems anyway so I can expect the same thing to happen for future gen and games are super cheap to buy especially on black Friday.


I genuinely now think that psxtools.de has some connection with some members of Team Xecutor or others "stealers/betrayers" or what not...... its not the first time wee seen this. First after "Gateway3DS team" abandoned its user and never releaed the promised big update, later GW some users did "franken firmware" solutions which works perfect to this date but there was time where someone from psxtools.de released they own version of bootloader for GW 3DS after GW team stopped updating it (NOT the usual franken firmware which is really strange), later SX OS Save manager which received an update TWICE on psxtools.de and now see that SX OS 3.1.0 appears.....

One person’s opinion isn’t confirmation.
Well, it always can be that this programmer got dementia or was in accident and lost memory. Otherwise there is no way this is the same guy. And there is no better person to confirm that than a guy who cracked SX OS encryption for all versions and is reverse engineering their CFW for years.

That's right, you can always trust a biased person that has a personal agenda with absolute faith and certainty :rolleyes:. Why is it so vague and skimped on details then?
  • "A number of mistakes" What mistakes? Why leave these details out?
  • "Overal changes in code style" What changes? Why not be more specific so people can make their own informed decisions?
  • "Jump from 3.0.5 numbering to 3.1.0" Seriously? That's an argument for a different programmer?
This is just putting out more bias and conspiracy theories. Very little facts...

Yes, now of all times he has an agenda. Looks like Russians have many things in common with USA in terms of conspiracy theories. :P

"A number of mistakes" What mistakes? Why leave these details out?
Because this is Twitter (limited space etc.) And he doesn't want to help TX improve their code.

"Overal changes in code style" What changes? Why not be more specific so people can make their own informed decisions?
Tl;dr code has many rookie mistakes as it was written by someone with significantly less experience than before. Plus typical changes in low level code to make RE harder were this time completely ignored.

"Jump from 3.0.5 numbering to 3.1.0" Seriously? That's an argument for a different programmer?
TX was consistent in SX version numeration. This is first time they broke it. So yes, this is an argument.

And why should I listen to you who - based on gbatemp history - done nothing to Switch and gbatemp scene? Only commenting stuff. As if going in details would helped you understand anything.

Right, so we just need to trust his word then? That's blind faith.

What mistakes? You're just parroting whatever he said..

Like what? Details left out again...

My post history is not relevant, I can think critically and make informed decisions myself. I'm not the usual sheeple that blindly believe what some of switch scene idols say. Because they clearly have a bias when it involves anything TX.

The fact that these idiots won't give up no matter what is just hilarious. The US Government is after them and they aren't even trying to hide. Well, when their hosting provider is ordered to terminate their websites, maybe they'll stop then.
