How to: Hekate chainload vanilla Atmos
Hi everyone!
I noticed lots of people are very confused how they should update their patches... Kosmos patches? Hekate Patches?! Atmos patches?!
As asked by some users, here you have my set up and this simplifies everything.
This is very simple tutorial on how to boot Vanilla Atmosphere via Hekate and use the Normal patches from the new thread from our friend @Raugo.
You just need to do this once. Everytime a new release is out, you just need to update Atmos files + your patches from Here
Note:
This new patches thread replaces the no-more-updated old thread well known as "Sweet Patches".
First, lets understand:
1. Hekate comes with this folder structure:
SD:\bootloader this folder have 4 sub-folders and no files.
2. The 4 sub-folders are:
SD:\bootloader\ini this folder is empty
SD:\bootloader\payloads this folder is empty
SD:\bootloader\res this folder have the default icons (resources)
SD:\bootloader\sys this folder have system files (don't mess with them!)
Then, lets configure Hekate to boot vanilla Atmosphere (+ Normal patches) and forget about those Hekate/Kosmos patches:
1. Let's create the main configuration file:
Create a new file hekate_ipl.ini inside bootloader folder:
SD:\bootloader\hekate_ipl.ini
Note:
If you are a Windows user, be careful with the extension of the file. Google "how to view extensions for know file types".
2. Inside this file you can copy/paste this text:
[config]
autoboot=1
autoboot_list=0
bootwait=3
verification=1
backlight=100
autohosoff=0
autonogc=1
{------- Launch -------}
[Atmosphere]
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee-primary.bin
icon=bootloader/res/icon_atmosphere.bmp
[Horizon]
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
stock=1
icon=bootloader/res/icon_horizon.bmp
3. Then, you just need to put fusee-primary.bin inside payloads folder like this:
SD:\bootloader\payloads\fusee-primary.bin
4. You can create your own customized icon for Atmosphere and Horizon and put them on the res folder like this (You will have to learn how to create this BMP files or use the default ones, renaiming their names):
SD:\bootloader\res\icon_atmosphere.bmp
SD:\bootloader\res\icon_horizon.bmp
5. You can also create your own bootloader screen and put it here (You will have to learn how to create this BMP file):
SD:\bootloader\bootlogo.bmp
And that's it! This simple configuration will let you:
inject Hekate ----> See your custom bootlogo ----> Boot Vanilla Atmos + Normal Patches
and forget about Kosmos/Hekate patches!
If you press Vol - button while injecting, you can go to Hekate menu and check you configurations.
You can boot Atmosphere and Horizon.
Feel free to ask your questions.
