@blawar please remove the check for the hekate bootloader, I run pure atmosphere using hekate to launch the payload directly. I use hekate a lot for generating nand backups, and now your app is making me delete that "bootloader" folder just to run your application, please don't kill your app with such a silly and pointless check. If you need to check for Kosmos, sure, since it actually causes problems, but let us keep hekate.
What else doesn't work properly on Kosmos out of curiosity? I know XCI installation, but i've used Tinfoil exclusively and have had no issues personally with both my Kosmos switch and Vanilla Atmosphere switch.
Just seeking knowledge
standard crypto / re-keying is also broken on hekate / kosmos.
"uninstalling" kosmos doesn't force anyone to use anything else, they'd still have to download fusee-primary to use atmosphere instead. you're placing the patches in the atmosphere patch folder when you do this right? if not, what's the point? a pure atmosphere setup coexists fine with a hekate-based setup currently, so just instruct them to use that. what am i missing here?
Unfortunately there is no easy, maintainable way for me to detect fs patches. I understand that some people may want to use Hekate instead of Tinfoil, and that is ok. We all have our preferences. People should also accept that I write this software for free, and I am not obligated to deal with another dev's issues. If that dev is unwilling to make the nec changes, I am well within my right to block their software. There are alternatives to Tinfoil such as goldleaf that these hekate users can use.
I will remove the block when Hekate / Kosmos includes the appropriate sig patches to ensure Tinfoil functionality works as expected.
it strikes me as noob-hostile to remove something that isn't causing a problem. hekate/kosmos just lacks support, so it makes sense to detect the files and warn the user that things may not work. but uninstalling kosmos doesn't even fix the lack of patches+bootloader that supports them and installing the patches or using a cfw with them baked in does not conflict at all with the presence of kosmos.
so what practical purpose does an uninstaller serve for the end user?
a) It is causing problems, that is the problem. Hekate does not support acid patches, and it causes some games installed with tinfoil not to work.
b) I do not install sigpatches.
c) I dont think its being noob unfriendly, I am just choosing not to support one cfw / bootloader. Users are free to use goldleaf if they are married to hekate.
d) I am avoiding support issues / reports of shit not working caused by hekate users. not my job to deal with hekate's issues.

I'm not convinced you've had 99 times as many users tell you it's working perfectly for them as the number of users who've already complained in this thread that it's a problem.

Holy shit, how can you say something like this with a straight face? Jesus. Maybe write a fucking better XCI converter that doesn't produce corrupt NSPs? No problem with 4NXCI converts.

Why would you think a backup on your sd card *is* a good idea? I wrote the best XCI installer, 4nxci is slow. I'm not willing to double or tripple install times because hekate wont patch FS.
You know hekate verifies backups and you should eject the SD and store the backup in multiple places?
Arrogant much?
But you are willing to make wrong and corrupt dumps? Ok
- Fixed logo centering
- Fixed missing progress meter
- Fixed bug where older updates would sometimes install when newer ones were available
- Added ability to boot with a modified version of Hekate that has cmac patches
- ReinNX and SX users do not get the nag, even if hekate files are found on the SD card.
Worked with sdfiles to come up with a solution. Signed Hekate binaries that will work with Tinfoil 1.47+ should be posted to https://github.com/Joonie86/hekate soon TM
