So I'm on 9.0.1, Atmosphere, and I just can't launch games. When I try launching Persona 5 Scramble, it wants to verify it online and it obviously tells me it couldn't connect to servers since I'm banned. The sigpatches are the "sweet patches" and while everyone says they solved the problem, it just doesn't work for me. Any help please?

I had this same problem before when I was using an older version of kosmos and it "corrupted" some games. I used hekate to boot fusee primary instead and then the system fixed those games and everything ran fine.

Only thing to look out for is the location of the sigpatches, as atmosphere reads them from a different folder depending on the bootloader you use. It's kip/exefs_patches for primary (like in that rar), but kosmos was loading them from a patches.ini file in the bootloader folder.

So I think, if you are booting with the kosmos package, that's why. If you installed the patches properly, then booting atmosphere from fusee primary should make them work.

Thank you for the information about the different folders, that was pretty interesting!
But I booted Atmosphere by injecting fusee-primary, never used Hekate, so I don't know.. but maybe I could have misunderstood your advice, if that's so could you restate it foolproof? :D

Those are the right sigpatches for fusee-primary. But I don't think lacking sig patches would cause that error. Some games perform an online check, you can try enabling airplane mode and see if that helps.
You can also try patching the game with NSC_BUILDER to remove the linked account check (https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...intendo-account-requirement-for-games.547721/) or alternatively, you can fake link an account. https://github.com/Povstalez/Kefir-Updater/releases
That is assuming it just wants you to link an account, and doesn't actually require you to go online to verify the purchase.

I don't think it's an account problem, since I tried launching my legit digital ssbu copy and it works just fine
And if I try to launch it with airplane mode it tells me to disable it, such a pain

Ok I now know it's not a linked account problem, since I did the Kefir Updates stuff and the error still is there. Any other ideas? I'm up to anything lol

Verify online when launching games is normally a secondary account issue, are you having issues with all games? Are the games legit or nsp?

Have you tried deleting everything off your SD card except the Nintendo folder and then using a fresh Atmos and sigpatches running Fusee and not Hekate. Don't use Kosmos just grab everything fresh from the github.

Hey! Thanks a lot for the info. I use Hekate and boot from the launch option. I would usually get the games corrupted and NSPs like Homebrew wont launch. I have to select the fusee primary to make it work.

So, what should i do/where should i put the patches with kosmo for it to launch from the hekate boot option and dont have this problem? You say the ini file, but what does that mean?

The ini file is if you use the kosmos NX package, it goes inside the bootloader folder and is named "patches.ini". In that all the patches are listed so it's only one file. But that only applies if you use kosmos, regular atmosphere doesn't read patches from there, it reads them from inside the atmosphere folder, the same folders as they are structured inside the "sweet patches" download. (so drag and drop from that rar should work)

If you're not using the kosmos package, and are booting with fusee primary but it still doesn't work, try booting the payload directly rather than from inside hekate.

The only other thing I can think of is if you don't have the no sig check string in your hekate_ipl.ini file. So for emunand with sigpatches you should have something like this in that file, which should be inside the bootloader folder.
[CFW (EMUMMC)]
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
kip1patch=nosigchk
atmosphere=1
logopath=bootloader/bootlogo.bmp
icon=bootloader/res/icon_payload.bmp
{}

So if there's no "kip1patch=nosigchk" line under any of your configs, but you have the patches installed, then that's why. But do keep in mind that would only fix the issue if booting atmosphere via hekate, Which currently works for me.

For booting atmosphere directly, it's supposed to jsut work if you install the patches I think, but maybe it needs to be enabled in one of the files in the config folder, I'm not entirely sure.

Oh and also some games are just bad dumps/installs or you might have installed a patch that's not proper so it keeps asking to check online, I had that with sword/shield so waited for a new update dump and that one didn't ask me to validate or go online. So could also be that for some people.

It was exactly that, i did not have the "kip1patch=nosigchk" line in my ini file. Most games i installed would not work if i boot with hekate, i couldnt install some nsp and the homebrew icon nsp. Now it works. Thanks a lot!
