Thanks, can I ask as you are more versed. Is there a way to find out what apps I need to update, some are obvious but is there a folder on the sd card that shows which homebrew apps I currently have?.

Hello!

I wanted to boot up my old hacked Switch to install some games for my friend since I don’t use it anymore.

The console was patched and originally on firmware 19.0.0. I decided to update it to 22.0.0, and now I’m running firmware 22.0.0 with Atmosphère 1.11.0. However, I’m having a lot of issues since the Atmosphère team stopped supporting the project.

I can’t launch any games installed with Cyberfoil. Every time I try, I get the message:
“You need the game to start playing.”

From what I understood, the issue is probably related to sigpatches not being installed correctly, but I can’t find any working ones, or maybe I just don’t understand how to set them up properly.

Could anyone help me? Sorry, it’s been a while since I last used modded consoles, and things seemed much easier before firmware 20.0.0.

I’ve also seen comments like this on other posts, but I don’t really understand what they mean:

“You won't be able to install any NSP files if you don't have the correct patches applied. That error message is basically telling you that you don't have them installed or enabled. Enable them in sys-patch then reboot your Switch.”

Some people also mention using an overlay menu by pressing L + Volume Down + R3, but that doesn’t work on my setup.
 
I'm trying to get into hekate but i keep booting into the emuMMC mode. Ive tried to inject the payload but it boots right to the emuMMC mode anyway. Anyone have any solutions or suggestions?

the "you need the game to start playing" means you install the update and not the game.
sigpatches doesnt work with firmware 22.0.0. the alternative to sigpatches is sys-patches.
sys patches:https://github.com/borntohonk/sys-patch
just drag it to the root of the sd card.
the overlay menu u mention is called tesla menu or the better version called ultrahand menu overlay
 
Hi. I happen to have a launch model switch running OFW 22.1.0. Is there a way to inject a payload properly to it while in RCM? I could not see Hekate at all.
 
Hello,

I wanted to use this MHGU save (Clean MHGU Save with Full DLC + MHG transfer bonus) to start a new game of Generations Ultimate on my Switch emulator (Eden) running on my Ayn Thor. However, I am not sure how to make use of the files. Eden doesn't seem to want to use the "system" and "system_backup" files for its save import function, and replies on the thread seem to mention using "Checkpoint" to import saves on a physical system (I'm familiar with Checkpoint on the 3DS, wasn't aware it existed on the Switch.

How do (or can) I make use of the save files to start a new game of MHGU on Eden for Android? I'd appreciate any assistance.

You have it set to autoboot into emuMMC? You should be able to hold Vol - when booting to get to Hekate menu to turn off autoboot. Or, disable it in your hekate_ipl.ini file.
 
Hi, im having a little inconvenience. For context: I have a modded switch 22.1.0 with the newest (at this time) atmosphere.
I installed mariokart8deluxe v 3.0.3 with the DLC and every time i try to start the game it tells me that there is an update avaiable. How can i make it so that i dont have to press one extra button every time i try to open the game? this is really mildlyannoying because it happens with some other games too.

Thanks for any reply!
