    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    UPDATE: greyed my tutorial out since Tinfoil should now install everything fine without hexediting anything! The automatic build Link is added to OP.

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    I just wanted to post this, but you were faster :) Did you try installing UNCHANGED updates or base games? I think hexediting might be obsolete/not needed anymore with the latest Tinfoil you mentioned. Do game updates boot on your switch now, which previously didn't because they still needed a...

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    Newest Tinfoil build compiled and added to OP. Haven't tested it though. auto for me the semi-old Tinfoil (with 54 commits) worked like a charm, just like the old one (minus update support). Base games and updates install just fine. Patched/hex-edited game updates still need their required...

    Homebrew RELEASE ChoiDujourNX - a system firmware installer homebrew for the Nintendo Switch

    I think you are missing the proper ES patch for for launching the games? look in the ReiNx/titles (if using reinx) or in the atmosphere/titles folder(if using atmosphere+hekate). AFAIK there should be a folder ending with 33. If it isn't there, get the ES patching folder for your 5.x firmware...

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    @pausuri Update patching still doesn't work! The newest Tinfoil will install the update but it will still need an systemupdate!! This Tinfoil is the newer one in the OP. I think this problem is a limitation of the patching method and not a bug of Tinfoil, to be honest. from OP: KEEP IN MIND...

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    If I understand it correctly (unfortunately I'm not fluent in coding language) this should patch a NSP without extracting it? Nice!!! If this proves to be good, I will definetly push your file/code to my OP, if you're okay with it :)

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    that is true! but keep in mind that lots of games only pretend to need a higher firmware than is actually needed for playing the game. the key revision or "key generation" is the important part here! So there could be games that are released today but are still using older key rev. and thus...

    looks good and normally should work! Okay, so the problem seems SX installer related.

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    the album makes your switch crash? did you already install the nsp? normally on SX os the album would load the homebrew menu, I quess?

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    why exactly that number? I need 13 digits for the updates. Edit: I just checked the 1-2-switch update you mentioned.. it has 12 digits. so the number of digits increased for the higher updates? weird Edit2: it seems that games that have 13 digits for minimal fw also have one digit more in the...

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    That could be. It could also be, that the switch scans for a certain minimal number that has to be filled in. It could also be that there is another factor for the switch to scan for the minimum firmware needed. For now it's all speculation and thus trial and error...

    Tutorial Play .NSP Games for higher Firmware on lower Firmware (ReiNX, Hactool,Tinfoil + extracted NSP)

    Found a way better method to change minimum FW for games! see OP! Unfortunately, it doesn't work with patches - they still force you to update.... they also have more digits in their XML for required firmware info... weird!
