ROM Hack Adding mods for switch games

[satch4684]

well im just starting out to see if i can understand this, but Im already completely lost at the simple task of dropping the files from a mod on the SD card.

seems like inside atmosphere is supposed to be a 'contents' or 'titles' folder, which contains folders like 0100ABF008968000 which would correspond to a game title, that is where the mod for the specific game goes.

so none of those folders exist, and going through the SD card I could not seem to find anything containing these game title folders?

so none of those folders exist

/contents is inside the /atmosphere folder. Atmosphere's sysmodules are bundled as stratosphere.romfs inside the /atmosphere folder. Cheats and mods are inside atmosphere/contents/.

You have to make them. They don't just "exist". Most mods that you download will already have the proper folder structure as a courtesy though not all of them.

thanks alot turns out I was overthinking it, worked like a charm

crossed my mind about creating the directories but somehow I thought the title of the game folder and such are supposed to be there and i couldn't find them or something was wrong.
