Use Tinfoil with Vanilla/Stock Atmosphere

Thanks to @blawar for making this possible and changing the way that Tinfoil checks for patches and permissions.

1. Get the latest version of Atmosphere from: https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases/latest . You need to download fusee-primary aswell, this is the payload that you have to use.

2. Download the latest version of Tinfoil from https://tinfoil.media/repo/tinfoil.latest.zip . You may need to install R47 version https://tinfoil.media/repo/Tinfoil [050000BADDAD0000][8.10][v47].nsp and install it after you paste it.

3. Download the latest working sigpatches for Atmosphere from this thread https://gbatemp.net/threads/atmosphere-patches-es-fs-and-loader-fusee_primary-only.562812/ and put it in your SD card.

4. Launch Atmosphere either by injecting fusee-primary.bin or by chainloading it from Hekate.

5. Install the vR47 version NSP, this version (and the next ones) will bypass the old checks that made this not possible.

6. Open Tinfoil and enjoy

TIP: If you want to use this with HBG, all you have to do is delete your actual /switch/tinfoil and put the one from HBG

THIS METHOD WILL NOT WORK WITH KOSMOS or HEKATE FSS0 LAUNCH USERS

Not the best guide, you haven’t even explained how to chainload for people haha.

The thought was there though

This is not a guide. You are just telling people to download AMS, download Tinfoil Installer, install, and use. You should've just made a news flash alerting people that you don't HAVE TO use NeutOS to use Tinfoil.

Is Tinfoil necessarily better than either Goldleaf or Tinleaf?

If you want to use HBG/Jack In the Shop - Yes
If not then Tinleaf and Goldleaf is bascially the same thing (IDK if Goldleaf allow XCI/NSZ) but Tinleaf does.

I personally use tinfoil I was accustomed to using it when I first modded my switch it's just a preference

I used to use Tinfoil as well, until Goldleaf came along. The latter has become my primary ever since.

I have not tried NSZ yet on Goldleaf. NSP is still the popular format in my experience.

Most of my buddies switch that I modded was on 9.2 and tinfoil wasn't working properly on Atmosphere/Hekakte so I lead them to use tinfoil or goldleaf I think my issue with goldleaf it didn't delete the game files after installed idk if that issue was ever resolved.
