I think something is broken on my end, instead of "Blacklisting" the Titles it deletes or downloads them regardless.

I tried the follwing Formats:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

and

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

The deletion will affect ALL titles, even the ones that are blacklisted

My exclude.txt looks like so:
01006f8002326000
0100000000010000
1AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
And it seems to work fine. I suggest you back up your important cheats until you figure it out

DM me on here or at @simple#8155 if it still doesn't work

Just TIDs?
Yes, one per line, although one every 2 lines *should* work aswell

Can you make it so that each individual cheat it downloads is disabled (unticked) by default, then we can just tick whichever cheats we want to enable in edizon? I just messed up a save game because all the cheats were automatically enabled for that game and it auto-saved.

Thanks for your efforts in making this nifty app.

I'm pretty sure that's either a user error (from your side), an EdiZon problem or perhaps a problem with the cheatfile. On which game did it happen? Cheats are unloaded by default on my machine (with Edizon or Edizon overlay). My program only puts the cheat files in the proper cheats directory, like you would if you dragged and dropped the files using ftp.

EDIT : see MagnesG post below. Chances are that's what's happening

Pretty sure that was caused by system_settings.ini in atmosphere\config

; Controls whether dmnt cheats should be toggled on or off by
; default. 1 = toggled on by default, 0 = toggled off by default.
dmnt_cheats_enabled_by_default = u8!0x1 -----------------------------> should be u8!0x0

Paste the file I uploaded then reboot, or make the adjustment yourself. Also maybe check if the .ini file from atmosphere\config_templates is the same?

Hi is it possible to add a Blacklist Feature?

Example:

A List where People can write down the Title IDs & Build IDs of Cheats.
When the Title IDs & Build IDs are in the List, they will be Ignored.

I have some Cheats with some custom formattings or in different Languages,
that i won't have to be replaced.

Would be nice!! Thanks in advance!!
@Homlet this sounds familiar, just like i was talkinging about last week.

You've been getting lots of requests, so I'm sorry to burden you even more.
There are many folders in my microSD containing only a credit file (as in, which title the cheats are for and who made them) because I ran the function to delete every cheat. Would it be possible to improve this function in order to delete these folders as well?
I don't know if or how you distinguish actual cheat files from credit ones, but you could check whether a folder contains the ‘cheats’ directory, and if not, delete said folder. Just an idea ofc : )

@Homlet The blacklist works fine, thanks for the feature. Though I guess if we could select the game from the app itself that would be better.
That would require a proper GUI, something I'm not willing to do atm

Problem with that idea is that it might delete stuff related to mods or else. Now, the app can delete the title folder if it had cheat files in /<titleid>/cheats and nothing else inside. If there are other files (mods, cheats instructions etc), those won't be deleted.
What I did was manually delete my folders that had instructions. A bit tedious but not that bad, and once it's done, as long as you don't download the instructions again, deleting the cheats with X should clean your contents directory nicely

Played Animal Crossing earlier-all cheats work fine. Used the spawn Swordfish cheat and its didn't work so tried the Great White one. Worked fine. Deactivated it and turn the game off. Came back to it an hour later and now all that spawns is Great White-none of the other fish cheats work. I have enabled then de enabled it as well as deactivated all cheats.

Any ideas?

You'd have to ask on the threads about SXOS cheats. I barely use cheats myself and only use Atmopshere. Perhaps you saved with the cheat active? My homebrew only puts the cheat files in the correct directories, nothing more. I'm sorry I can't be of much help

Downloaded it and used it on animal crossing via tesla edizon. Now when i quit AC and tried it on Nino Kuni the screen got stuck to black. I restarted my switch and now its stuck on Nintendo switch logo. Any fix?

I'm afraid I don't know that happened. It's unlikely (if not impossible) to have been caused by my homebrew. It just puts .txt files in a few folders. I'm guessing deleting your atmosphere folder and putting a new one in should do the trick, but you're better off asking on the Edizon thread/discord, or perhaps the cheats thread
