    Hacking Question Questions about backing up game purchases

    I like to buy my games and to play them using the benefits of cfw (cheats, game save management, mods). As such, I purchase my games on my sysnand and play them on my emunand. The "problem" is when I buy a new game on my clean ofw sysnand, in order to get it over to my emunand, I have to make a...

    Hacking Installing splitted nsp

    if i remember correctly the switch homebrew called "nx-shell" allows you to set the archive bit. it's a file browser for the switch. so you just load it up on your switch and click on the folder where you put your split nsp and select "set archive bit" or something like that.

    Hacking Can we get to the bottom of the Corrupted Data Crash?

    While your SDcard is FAT32, I'm assuming your external drive is ExFat? I'm guessing it's the ExFat external drive that is getting corrupted. Especially given that the switch isn't natively designed to work with an external drive. But I'm not too sure. Maybe somebody with more...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Thankfully I don't have any problem at the moment, but I've always wondered how sdcard corruption works (i do use Fat32 so hopefully this will never happen). I'm specifically worried about my saves which i regularly back up with Checkpoint. Is it that just the sdcard gets corrupted, or that...

    Hacking Is ExFat corruption on external drive a thing?

    I know that the common belief is that ExFat can/will eventually lead to corruption, so since day 1 my SDcard has been FAT32. However for simplicity's sake I have been using a USB thumbdrive as ExFat. I recently updated to sx os 3.02 but keeping my emunand at 9.1.0 in an effort to test out any...

    ROM Hack Cheat Codes AMS and Sx Os, Add and Request

    @ZiT Just wanted to say thanks for almost always making codes for the base version of games. Makes it easy to know that can always cheat, rather than having to deal with having the right update. (This is not me saying that people shouldn't update their games. You do you.)

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I remember that firmware 9+ messed up homebrew compatibility (they wouldn't recognize inputs from joycons and controllers). so needed to wait for all homebrew devs to update their homebrew. Does firmware 10+ also have this issue again, and we have to wait for devs to update their homebrew? or...

    Hacking Can atmosphere and sx os share the same hidden emunand?

    Oh really? Then that is completely my fault. I had thought once atmosphere blocked the card slot update it was always blocked. In that case you are absolutely right. it doesn't make sense. Thank you for setting me straight.

    Hacking Can atmosphere and sx os share the same hidden emunand?

    My plan is to update my sx os hidden emunand from 8.1.0 to 9.1.0 using atmosphere so I can avoid burning the game cart slot fuse. I posted this on the noob thread and Draxzelex was kind enough to share their knowledge about how to do exactly this (thank you again). Basically using the migrate...

    Cool, thank you. I just want to check one more thing, as it's been a long time since I've used atmosphere as well, I just did some reading up. I downloaded the atmosphere zip file from github. I just copy all the files and folders to the root of my sdcard, and then when using hekate and choose...

    It's been eons since I've used Hekate, please allow me to double check. So I would... 1. put the hekate bin file in the root of my memory card 2. boot into sxos as usual and choose "boot other os" and boot hekate 3. within hekate i'd choose "migrate emuMMC" 4. then launch atmosphere and it...

    Hacking Strange issue after updating latest SX OS on 9.2.0

    Ok then download and try the SX Installer v3.01 (not the built in sxos installer) and give it a try. Just like you some things will give me the same error as you when using goldleaf, tinfoil, or sx installer v3.02 (never tried the built in installer), but those exact same things will work fine...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I currently have an sxos hidden emunand on 8.1.0 and would like to update it to 9.1.0 however I'd also like to avoid burning the game cart fuse. I know only atmosphere allows you to do this. My question is can I run atmosphere within my sxos hidden emunand, so I can then update it using atmosphere?

    Hacking Strange issue after updating latest SX OS on 9.2.0

    What installer are you using? I ask because I've run into this issue when using SX Installer 3.02 but when I go back to SX Installer 3.01 and try the same thing, the problem is gone.
