Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Chaosta]

Ahhh, ok. Thank you. Is there an up-to-date alternative that I can use?

Also, is it safe to use nxthemer or whatever is called?

its mainly the outdated versions. if anything use the hb store to find a app, then google it for the latest version and to see if its compatible. all hb apps will either be on gbatemp or github. check this for latest version of nxthemes installer

Well if its corrupted, a simple format should fix the issue. While you're at it, you should also check to see if the SD card is fake or not. If neither of these resolve your problem, then unfortunately your SD card reader may be broken and will need to be replaced.

So I've never actually setup or used Yuzu so I don't know why or what it would need from a retail console in order to run but from the looks of things, you technically don't need a hacked console to follow the guide. Its just that using a hacked console allows you to follow the guide legally. The only part that requires a hacked console are obtaining the keys and those can be found online. Prod.keys can be any keys file because it just contains the keys that all Nintendo Switch consoles share. Title.keys are keys used to decrypt eShop games but since you don't plan on running games, you don't even need these. In conclusion, all you need to do is find the Switch keys somewhere on the Internet. Since they are copyrighted files, I cannot help you find them.

The microSD I bought is real. Got it from Best Buy; I will try and get another SD card so I can copy the files. I have a LOT of games saved and don't wanna lose them.

Awesome, thank you, now everything works fine. I'd better write everything I did somewhere to be sure to know what to do for the next update.

It's a good idea to try and remember/ keep note of what you did actually, because when the next Switch Update comes and you want to upgrade to that firmware you'll need a new version of Atmosphere and a new set of sigpatches!

Glad you got it sorted!

I'm sorry, I didn't clarify. Download nut.exe, the .reg and the driver. Keep them all in the same directory together, I keep them by themselves. Transfer the keys.txt file into the same directory as nut.exe. Install the driver, then the reg file, then launch nut. Let it do it's thing then you'll see the GUI popup. Click on the "local scan paths" tab, click "browse"and point it to the directory containing your games. After that, click scan at the top and watch your list populate. Follow @Chaosta 's directions for transferring.

BE CAREFUL WITH THE ORGANIZE FILES FUNCTION!!!! I ended up messing up my backups that I had updated with have updates and dlc and when I clicked organize, it deleted them all so I had to update the games all over again. Ooof.

Doesn't sound too bad. Just confusing. I might end up just doing it with the SD card for now and changing to NUT when the card is almost full since you need double the storage when installing through SD...

Thanks again!

if your on fat32, you cant transfer files to sd over 4gigs, this is where nut and other methods for installing games comes into play. quite a few games are over that 4gig limit

can use various hb apps to create a linked account offline. many use LinkalHo .

Yes I have Linkalho but when I add the user account on my Switch do I need a DNS server ? I'm on emmunand and I don't want my sysnand banned

Once again, thank you very much for your insight and advice. Learning from you is like a fast-track program for switch modding

You should of had incognito or 90dns setup on your emunand right after it was created. But yes you want incognito or 90dns

25 of the games I'm installing are over 4GB, but the SD is formatted as exFAT so it's not an issue. What was more of a pain was to be transferring games onto the SD card each time I wanted to install something ahaha.

All good now anyway, pretty much done!

I have 90dns set-up. I'm gonna run both though. Which is the most advisable/reliable: exosphere incognito or incognito_rcm? For good measure what is tinfoil incognito?

Might I suggest you checking out "Switch Army Knife" it's literally all you need for splitting nsp, covering nzs and xci to nsp and everything in between and it will copy to your microsd as it splits so you won't need to split then transfer. Tinfoil sees it as just a single nsp. It's brilliant

If you're using 90DNS, you don't need Incognito.

Havent messed with the tinfoil option. I use incognito_rcm but exosphere works just fine. 90dns throttles your connection while using internet on emunand. Incognito is all you need

Sweet, thank you. I knew my internet was getting throttled, I have gigabit and was seriously getting 6mb/s maximum.

I have a few questions about uLaunch: Does the latest version work with fw v13.2.0 and atmosphere v1.2.5, is there a risk of bricking using this launcher and lastly, if a theme doesn't work right, can I revert back to default by removing it from my SD card or editing some config file?

Github shows it has issues on fw above 13.0. If a theme causes a crash itll say in the atmosphere error folder 0100000001000.

Just delete that folder in atmosphere / contents

Thank you. I saw that it's been updated to work on firmware 13.0 but wanted to know if anyone had any experience with it above v13.0 and if so what themes were they successful with...

You blow my mind with how much you know about the switch and that you retain it. Amazing

I use themes, I'm on 13.1, Use NXtheme Installer no prob. Yes some of the older themes do not work with newer FW, but most newer made ones work well. Best to make your own anyways, can have whatever pleases you! Update NXTheme Installer also when you update Atmos. Use the newest build.
Most these work!
