Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[iepuras]

Does anyone know where I can find a guide to show me how to dump a DA island? Thanks!

don’t think the tool is available anymore - but I could be wrong if someone (other than the author) was able to update the files themselves

Hello,
I am a new guy who hacked nintendo swich. I have an issues on CFW 13.1.0 and Atmosphere 1.2.4. I cannot install game from awoo installer. When I click on the program and select installing from SDCARD, it show an error 2168-0002 (I tried R+A and enter Awoo installer, the result are the same).

Do you have any suggestion for me to solve this issue?

• Do you have proper sig patches installed?
• Have you tried a different installer like TinWoo?

So I've recently updated from 11.1 to 13.1 OFW. Now using 13.1 AMS fine with no problems. I already had keys file on sd card from before, using Lockpick_RCM, but should I run it again now, is there new keys or any avantage to running it again now?

Been awhile since Ive touched my switch, but I already have it hacked with Emunand and all that. However I got a question about SysNand. Am I able to go online with it with a game Ive purchased legally from it? Planning on purchasing Shining Diamond Pokemon game, and Im pretty sure the only hakced stuff I have is on Emunand

I think I did something wrong, as I tried to redo my Atmosphere setup so I could add EdiZon so I can use cheats. I was using All In One Switch updater to download cheats and I got this screen. I had a similar error when I added checkpoint in an earlier configeration I did.

Could be theoretically possible in the future to load games from a file without installing it in the future? Like the Wii USB Loader. Or there are limitations regarding the file system/switch?

I'm not sure if we can answer that question here, since this could be seen as IP-related material. I'll let someone else chime in if I'm misunderstanding or wrong, but I would guess this answer is correct.

Probably not the answer you want to hear, and if you posted your .ini files for boot and let us know if your booting from Hekate or fusee, we may be able to help you with that. That being said its REALLY easy just to quickly re-do your switch SD card on the newest atmosphere, and you would only have to replace some of the files on your fat32 partition, so why not just do that and be up and running again? You can follow this here (Not my work, just organized to fill in some blanks for people):

(Ignore the get a new SD card part, ignore the part where you re-do the partition [Unless you want to re-do it], and just follow the section for the placement of the Boot files, Hekate etc, and you should be up and running.) I literally buy a new SD card every time I want to add more space, I just re-do / follow this guide. and add a new partition and CFW to make more space ha haha. Easy as pie Anyways, that should work for you. The post is mine, BUT the links to the awesome and hard work were done by others, and I am VERY appreciative of that. The people who do this out of the kindness of their hearts to preserve game history and as a hobby out of love, are GODS to me.

I would be leary of that. This is just my opinion, and it may not reflect how others see it, however, if there was EVER any chance that your emunand or emummc EVERY touched NINTY's servers WITHOUT incognito mode or 90DNS, there is a really GOOD chance you could get banned. Personally, I use one clean SW for online activity and another for everything else, that NEVER touches the internet. I have 90DNS on it, and airplane mode on. 90DNS is also on the SYSNAND side of the 2nd modded SW. Paranoia.

PS - On the second SW I even update the FW manually with DAYLIGHT, so that it never has to touch the internet.

Well I think I found the files by dumping the NSP through YuZu. Now it looks like I gotta extract them somehow. The file extensions are like ftrg / bea etc

I should have waited for this response. I stupidly jumped the gun and reformatted my SD card and followed the info here
https://www.cfwaifu.com/atmosphere-tinfoil/
and now I get

Fatal error: Failed to stat stage2 (atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin)! Press POWER to reboot.

I press power and it just says the same thing, I can't even get back to RCM mode to start over.

I just held the power button a bit longer, now back in RCM, I was panicking that I would have to find another hackable switch.

Havent used my switch since like late jan 2021. But I was looking to download Metroid Prime. But figured I needed to update some stuff first.

I downloaded the latest Atmosphere, Hekate, and Sig files, and then upgraded latest sysnand version. I think I remember learning a year ago you dont update the sysnand version since I had it on 10.2 or something, but now its the latest version.

But anyways when I run Atmoisphere, I get an error message after booting it up. Did I need to update something else? Or should I not have updated something or?

Ok I have everything fixed, now how do I add a cheat engine and where do i put cheat files? I used to use SXOS and i'm new to Atmosphere

Well major firmware versions usually introduce new keys but unless you are datamining or decrypting games, you don't really need to dump new keys.

Could be theoretically possible in the future to load games from a file without installing it in the future? Like the Wii USB Loader. Or there are limitations regarding the file system/switch?

SX OS has this functionality because .XCI files are just dumps of cartridges (you don't 'install' cartridges) but that CFW is dead; it doesn't support any firmware higher than 11.0. No developer is going to release an .XCI loader because the only purpose would be for piracy. However loading .XCI files isn't any safer than installing .NSP files if that's why you want the ability to load games without installing then.
