For me It started yesterday on 1.6.0c

That is why I said "legit". If you are playing via OFW with official Nintendo online connectivity, your version will show 1.6.0b as of 12/1. If you are playing with BCAT hacks (offline), your version will be 1.6.0c as of last month whenever you applied the hack.

Hey all. I'm working on a homebrew module to automate the patching of new events in AC:NH. The attached screenshot is a first success which shows that I'm able to read the BCAT data in my homebrew app. The idea is to provide the event files which are forged by the community on a server and let the homebrew app automatically patch them, so you just have to open that app!

I still can't get it to work past 1.6.0a, i'm restoring the forged bcat and using switch time but still nothing. Can someone help me with a detailed guide or something? Because it's clear i'm missing something here, even though simply restoring the bcat always worked (never had to use switch time either, not that it's doing something now but still)

Sorry to ask, but I've never tampered the BCAT files but now I'm intrigued. How to inject them? Can somebody please give me a quick "how to"? And also, could this method work with the Smash Bros Ultimate limited internet event spirits? Thank you.

(I press wrong the "Backup" button on the JKSV after put the BCAT files :rofl:
It should press the "Restore" button to inject the save.:P )

Have you finished this? Has anyone updated a BCAT for the 1.7 events?

Hmmm. I injected this on my save and restored with JSKV then used switch time to change the date to 2/15, but it didn't come up at 1.7.0a ? I don't understand what I did wrong!

Update: nevermind it works!! thank you so much

Will there be 1.7.0b and 1.7.0c and so on for other events?
Anticipating for them.

No more BCAT after the BCAT_EventFlag_007 (1.7.0a)
Other events are just Time gated event.
By other event I mean, during February:
- Groundhog Day (02/02)
- <リージョン>バレンタインデー (aka Valentine's Day)
- Catch Insect Event for South Hemisphere

In future:
- Setsubun
- 2 "Big Game" Events listed as 'BigGame and BigGame2"

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
    +1
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
