    Hacking How can I create an NSP from an NCA/XCI?

    I experimented with this a couple of weeks ago with no success. My goal was to dump legally purchased games on my unhacked switch and build an NSP file that could be installed on my offline hacked switch. Hopefully something like that will come out eventually

    Homebrew WIP nxdumptool - Nintendo Switch Dump Tool

    Actually, it was able to dump Captain Toad just fine without an internet connection. Must be something else going wrong.

    oh I guess I didn't realize that newer versions require an internet connection. Is there a way around that?

    I tried dumping Octopath Traveler today and it seems to be having trouble reading the cart. It just sits at "Please wait..." indefinitely.

    ROM Hack Suggestion Patch for Octopath Traveler Prologue Demo to remove 3 hour lock?

    I hacked the demo to remove the save file limit yesterday. I confirmed today that I was able to import my save file (with 4:40 play time) into the retail version just fine! Now I just have to decide if I want to keep playing or wait for my Wayfarer's Edition to get here on Friday... :unsure:

    ROM Hack Suggestion Patch for Octopath Traveler Prologue Demo to remove 3 hour lock?

    Tutorial How to install the exFAT driver without updating!

    Just wanted to say that I did this to my switch running 4.1.0 yesterday and it worked great. I actually considered going the hekate restore route that derekzoolander mentioned but it would be much slower and would be rewriting a lot of unnecessary data to the emmc on your switch. It should work...

    Hacking Question How should I prepare my Heckate Switch for SX OS?

    What I did was copy the boot.dat to the root of my SD card & drop the hekate payload on the root of my SD card as well - that way you can launch the hekate payload from the SX Launcher if you want to.

    Hacking SD2Vita is not working on Henkaku 3.68

    I feel like I'm missing something here. I've got the sd2vita working (I can see my big SD card in the system settings) but none of my games are showing up on the home screen. When I try to launch vitashell to refresh the live area, it says that it is corrupted. I think it would work just fine if...
