Hello there!

Here is my current details:
CFW emuMMC.10.0.2 (at the start, but updated it to 10.0.4 a while later).
Atmosphere: 0.13.0
Sigpatches: These ones
Installed using: Goldleaf 0.8 and Quark 0.3
SD: 64GB Sandisk

Today I tried to install Paper Mario: The Origami King, and after installing it the first time, I tried to run it inmediately after, but I got this error: "Could not start the software. Please try again from the HOME Menu.". Since I was using CFW10.0.2 (instead of 10.0.4), I updated to it and tried to run it again, but the same error was shown again. So, I thought I should reinstall from the same NSP and give it a try, so after do it, the same error was shown.
Then, I made a research and a possible cause could have been sigpatches (even thought I updated Atmosphere to 0.13.0 and the sigpatches about two weeks ago), but I updated the sigpatches again just in case, then ran the game again, and the same error was shown. So, after that, I decided to download again the NSP from a different source and try to install again. After that, the same error was shown, again.

So, after updating from 10.0.2 to 10.0.4, using Atmosphere 0.13.0 with latest sigpatches and many reinstalls, everything ended the same.

The problem here is that I installed Catherine: Full Body just about two weeks ago and it worked correctly, and shortly before, both Bayonetta 2 and Death Come True, and everything worked perfectly, and I can still play them today without problems, so the only problem is this Paper Mario: The origami king game.

Any ideas?

Just in case, until recently, I used Kosmos, but replaced the atmosphere folder with the official one and updated hekate from the hekate repository and not from sdsetup. That might be the problem? But still, this was before installing Catherine, Bayonetta 2 or Death come true.

I've seen a few people reporting this same issue with Oragami king and I haven't seen any solutions as yet. Have you got a spare SD card that you can set up a clean version of the latest atmosphere on? I have the same set up as you (10.0.4 and 0.13.0) and it works for me. I installed by usb with tinfoil and nut.

Latest sig patches and fusee primary. There is a website where you can build your version of atmosphere to your liking and then just copy all the files to your SD

  1. Make sure the SD card is FAT32.
  2. Remove all CFW files/folders from your SD card (that would be folders like /sept/ and /atmosphere/)
  3. Download the latest Atmosphere
  4. Download the latest fusee-primary (next to Atmosphere)
  5. Download these signature patches (for Atmosphere v0.13.0)
  6. Put Atmosphere and the signature patches onto your SD card
  7. Put the SD into your Switch
  8. Enter RCM
  9. Launch Atmosphere using fusee-primary

I do have one, but with half the size of this one. I will try a clean install of everything and see if that does it.

Which signature patches?
Which bootloader?

I am sorry, I forgot to add the link in the first post. These ones are the ones I am referring (and updated first post with this link too):
https://gbatemp.net/threads/sigpatches-for-atmosphere-0-13-0.567542/
Oh, and I am using Hekate (this release: https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases/tag/v5.3.0 ).

  1. Make sure the SD card is FAT32.
  2. Remove all CFW files/folders from your SD card (that would be folders like /sept/ and /atmosphere/)
  3. Download the latest Atmosphere
  4. Download the latest fusee-primary (next to Atmosphere)
  5. Download these signature patches (for Atmosphere v0.13.0)
  6. Put Atmosphere and the signature patches onto your SD card
  7. Put the SD into your Switch
  8. Enter RCM
  9. Launch Atmosphere using fusee-primary

Okay, I think I will need to reformat my SD because I think it's exFAT. I will try all of these steps.

Push fusee-primary payload instead of hekate

Okay, I will give it a try too.

Thank you very much!

First of all, sorry for double post, but I am not sure if you'd get notified if I just edited the last post.

That did the trick, but how I am supposed to go to CFW OFW if after pushing fusee-primary I go directly to emuMMC? (And yeah, I want to go to OFW with CFW to prevent losing AutoRCM after updating).

Thank you very much anyways!

Edit emummc/emummc.ini to disable emuNAND temporarily.

My steps above should solve most problems. If all of your other games work, it could be a bad game dump. Unfortunately, you did not provide a lot of details.

If you're on the latest system version (10.1.0 as of this post), you don't have to worry about keys.

It sounds like you could have a problem with your signature patches. Are you sure you followed my steps exactly?

This deletes pending Switch updates and cache, often resolving issues: Boot into maintenance mode by holding vol+ and vol- while turning on your Switch (or injecting fusee-primary). After you boot into the maintenance mode menu, touch nothing, and restart your Switch.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way
