What's the difference between Hekate and Hekate_Nyx?

Also how to update on the RCM Loader thing? I checked and it seems very outdated, but I don't know how it works.

Nyx is the graphic user interface for hekate, older version of hekate doesn't have interface, older version looks like this

If you have a clone, you can't update the payload on it. Thankfully, you don't have to as it'll look for update.bin on your SD card and, if newer, it'll run that one, so there's no real need to update it.
 
I just get this weird line of hex code when I'm just trying to update smash ultimate I just wanna play modded smash man 😭 I'm on firmware 22.5.0 and It's just makin me very frustrated because I've never encountered this before (and I'm still fairly new to having a cfw switch despite it being like 2 years lol) I'm just really stuck because I downloaded the update file via nxbrew's website and i just don't know what to do

Hekate is the RCM payload and Nyx is the GUI for Hekate. So the Hekate+Nyx package includes both the payload and the gui, plain Hekate only the payload,

I'm using OmniRCM as recommended in switch.hacks.guide and it is quite recent release and updates the payloads automatically as well. IIRC at least Sphaira does payload injects as well.

It seems 13.0.5 came out on September 1st, 2026. Since 23.0.0 came out on September 10, it wouldn't be a firmware issue.

If you've access to another Switch, try updating using match versions locally.

Which title installer did you use? I never run into an issue using latest Russian version of DBI.

Hi, I’m completely new to modding a Nintendo Switch, so please bear with me.

My Switch is on firmware 23.0.0, and I have installed Atmosphère 1.12.0 and Hekate 6.5.4 on emuMMC. When I try to install an NSP through Goldleaf, I get this error:

“An error occurred attempting to install the NSP — Error 2145-0001.”

Could anyone explain in simple terms what this error means and whether Goldleaf supports firmware 23.0.0? Thanks!
