xci files can be converted to nsp but to answer your first question atmosphere doesnt let you run xci files directly

you can use 4nxci to convert your xci games to nsp, then install them with tinfoil.

yes, the hardest part is getting the keys

You need a keys.txt file renamed to keys.dat

look up switch keys and do some reading, you can use lockpick to get your keys.txt, but I believe you will need some files dumped with hekate first. I would suggest reading up on lockpick and hekate

That's correct. And only SX OS supports XCI directly.

Not true, I have been using dopus to install my xci files on atmosphere with no problems on my 3.0 switch. However ever since I updated to 5.1, converted to exfat and been installing a few nsps my xci files aren't able to be installed.

When it comes to installing xci files on atmosphere, note that you cannot install split xci files like sxos can so FAT32 isn't an option for xci files bigger than 4gb

If anybody can specifically pinpoint what's the issue with whatever is keeping me from installing my xci files that would be awesome

Much love and thanks in advance

What that's actually doing is converting them to NSP, so it's not direct support. XCI files aren't installed on SX OS, they're ran directly.

Sorry for my ignorance, and thanks for making that clarification. (If that's the case then I can only wonder if the reason why I am having trouble with my xci files now is because of the corruption on my exFAT sd.)
So technically you can still use xci files but n1dus will convert and install them as nsp not run them natively.

I don't know if that's enough for guys but I'm satisfied with just that. I still however wonder if there are other things outside of exFAT corruption that might keep these files from not working, but I won't find out what to point out until I run into them.

Thanks again guys
