Where does one obtain sig patches?

Do you know a guide I could use?
Patches:
https://github.com/ITotalJustice/patches/releases

why do people keep assuming everything sx releated is either dead or a lie.

you do know they guys they caught were not the coders.
If it's not profitable, or if there are legal issues hindering support and/or profit, then updates are likely to slow down or stop entirely. In addition, 11.0.1 was a minor update, and there has been no SX OS support update despite it being months later.

Not want to dig in this discussion again, but atmosphere != piracy. But it's a bit too much to ask from people who can't code I guess. Also, I said 'fishy' not bad. The whole gateway reputation though, that was bad with a capital B. Made me never wanna spend anything on TX ever again.
TX != Gateway. Get that through your thick skull. Gateway went belly up. Some members were brought into the TX group. End of story. Again, TX has been around WAY LONGER THAN THAT.

Gateway said the same thing about releasing an update, and it never happened.
And again, TX isn't Gateway . And if an update didn't appear for years, at least we'd know why. You'd think somebody would cut some slack for someone who can't push out a release from jail :glare: (ok, 1 release was indeed made, but you get the point... or maybe not)

[*]You said one of the reasons you find SX OS useful is the ability to boot CFW on Mariko units, but Atmosphere can already do that.
Not without TX's mod chip, it can't.

Their indictment states otherwise.

TX is probably Gateway, and even if they weren't, the two would still be comparable.

You are correct that at present, a TX modchip is required to boot CFW of any kind on a Mariko system, but Atmosphere still works on Mariko, and it is not a reason to keep using SX OS. Because of TX's uncertain future, migrating to Atmosphere is recommended. In other words, SX OS is possibly outdated and unsupported regardless of whether or not a modchip is required to run CFW.

Its however known that Gateway and TX are the same. Code inside the the SXOS proves it as well.
Members merged over. You'd be rather lacking upstairs to think there wouldn't be crossover in the code.

You going to spam hate on Twitter towards XBOX Game Studios for the latest Windows 10 bugs? It is, after all, Microsoft. Right?

TX and Gateway are largely the same, and it wouldn't matter if they weren't.

There's a bit of history for you. Show me code from PS1~ XBOX, even up to XBOX360, that is used in Gateway CFW. If you can show me this, I'll be convinced. Old habits die hard. If the same team made GW and used it's code for TX, then it stands to reason, older code was used for GW. Prove it. I'm genuinely interested. Until then, TX hasn't given me a reason to not trust them WRT SXOS. Although this whole thread is pointless because the OP does NOT show a message from SX saying a release is on the way. Going to bed now. :P

I think TX is a pretty cool guy. Eh cracks switch firmware and doesn't afraid of anything.

You've been provided enough evidence demonstrating that TX is largely Gateway, and as I've said numerous times, it wouldn't matter if they were completely different groups. They're comparable.

I'm surprised the brick-code early on wasn't a good enough reason.
(Something they did w/ Gateway 3DS too)

Lots of folks seem to forget or dismiss that was a thing that took calling them out on it after RE for them to stub it.

I haven't assumed there won't be an update. However, it's looking increasingly unlikely with each day that passes without one.

It will either happen or it won't, if there is going to be an update then as each day passes you get closer to the release.

If there isn't then each day passing makes no difference. Maybe they'll open source it.

Not the same team. They got bought after the 360era by Max.
Lol, you use that line for TX, and I can’t use the same reasoning for GW? If the entire (current) TX team was GW, then GW would still be alive. With the source code, it could be made compatible with several more FW updates, thus lengthening the life and profits, with as little as updating a few patch addresses. The fact is, they don’t have that source code, because among the GW members who are currently NOT part of TX, is the main freaking programmer of the thing!

Why surprised? I only ever heard of 1 brick, in this case, and it was indeed someone trying to toy with it. The code did its intended job, and didn’t mess up otherwise. At any rate, I was referring to the fact that they have not yet failed to deliver a promise regarding updates and such. Since the legal issues and the last update for 11.0.0, I have still not seen such a promise directly from them, and I understand why.

Thanks, Captain Obvious.

Maybe they'll open source it.
That's doubtful. They have to financial motivation to do so, and virtually everything they do is driven by profit, since that's the point of a for-profit business. Gateway also had the chance to open source their work under comparable circumstances, and they didn't.

At this point it being open sourced or not, at least at software level, doesn't matter. The firmware on their chips has been dumped already, their chips have been repurposed to boot AMS. At this point the only thing of value that they can keep closed is the ability of running XCI.

All we really need is someone to reverse engineer their chip or someone to make a copy of it so we can boot AMS hahaha.
