Because of course, you must be intelligent if you're using the term, "Strawman".

And for what's bolded... why? What gives you the power to justify whether someone does or doesn't hack their switch via SX? It sounds a lot like you had a stupid experience, and now you're trying to apply it to everything. Jeez. It's like those idiots who meet ONE nasty rich person, and disregard the very kind ones who are out there.

You're very childish. Just let someone enjoy whatever the fuck they enjoy, and don't be such an ass.
Who said I had any power at all? You're free to ignore my opinion; I don't believe it has any special weight.

Adding an asterisk because you don't wish to explain yourself doesn't mean dick. If you ever bricked a 3ds, it sounds as if you shouldn't be giving out said "advice" and that someone with less experience may want to go a simpler route. For some unknown reason, listing SXOS has XCI and external HDD support is difficult for you since you "erroneously concluded that such a thing would be unnecessary."
Difficult? Not in the least! I just didn't want to overly bog down the post. I do have to concede to your point though, as someone who boneheadedly bricked a device in the past, I don't really have much ground to stand on.

What's the point of all this blablabla... Hating SX OS won't change the fact that they are the easiest and best CFW out there, I mean "best" because of HDD and XCI loader and for me those alone are enough... Hacking your switch with anything different is easy enough for me but not as CONVENIENT as plugging a dongle and voila, this shouldn't mean I NEED to avoid CONVENIENCE because I can hack my switch following a step by step guide, quite the opposite I'm paying 30 bucks to SX OX exactly because of the fact of being CONVENIENT and therefore worthy. It's exact the same logic as when you buy a bottle of water at a 7 eleven it will be more expensive than the supermarket but well it's CONVENIENT.

That's a strawman if I've ever seen one. I didn't say atmosphere is superior. I didn't say that there are are no reasons to use SX OS.* What I did say was that if the only way you could manage to hack your switch is with SX OS, then perhaps you shouldn't be hacking your Switch. I say this out of experience of a sorts; I once bricked my 3DS because I got in over my head in the days before the big guide. Fortunately, that was only a $40 mistake, but if I hadn't made a back up in advance it would have been significantly more.

*I actually considered adding a bit at the bottom of my post noting the exclusive features that SX OS has that I think would be worth paying for, but I erroneously concluded that such a thing would be unnecessary.
Its a matter of preference its something we cannot debate for the general use. Lot's of ppl wont buy the sxos b/c its pure illegal and costs $, then you have those who dislike TX's stolen code, but will pay just to have xci HDD mounting [Me]. $40 is pocket change tbh. If ppl spend $50-$60 on multiple SD cards then the whole cheap budget rant on hacking is thrown out the window. Those who bought the sxos mainly for homebrew didn't do much research they only saw what was shown in the media to hack a switch.
I come from the PS3/PS4 hacking community and gaming from a massive storage drive is essential to me. Is it worth $40? sure b/c I use the feature on a daily basis.

Sure buddy

also when it comes to xci loading, it has already been explained why atmos is not supporting it.
It's because of the legal issues, taking code which is not theirs.
But I'm sure they're investigating a legal way to do it ^^

Sorry if what I am about to say will be dumb, but take the Playstation 1 and 2 emulators as an example. Both need Sony files (Bios) to run. These files are not supplied by emulator's authors. In my point of view, if it is doable, atmosphere could do something similar. They develop the solution, but in case it requires some "Big N" copyrighted files, the user should find them by their own.

Oh yeah, absolutely! I don't begrudge anyone who likes the extra features that SX OS brings. My post was solely about my opinion on the ease of use aspect of it. When it comes to exclusive features, that HDD mounting alone is super useful.

Yeah even atmo users want that feature, unless theres a way to mount nsp's in the near future then that would instantly kill the purpose of having an sxos

Totally agree , just enjoy your switch . I haven't seen people hating Atmos on their post .
reason you dont see people hating atmos is because these are the folks that dont want to pay for games, the same folk that blame the price of games today to justify them pirating (think its ok because 1 person at end of the day had to pay for the game, tho they ignore that 1 sale has allowed thousands if not millions to play without paying).

these same people that expect everything for free, clearly wont like a product that theyd have to pay for in order to not pay for games.

completely forgetting it was xecuter who first brought the exploit to the switch that others then use to make theirs possible.

end of the day the way i look at it is, xecuter have included far more within their os than free cfw, i mean with atmos you have to rely on additional apps and tools, when sx os is all built in the os.

Youre an assuming idiot. Ive seen it in many of your posts before. And no, the reason sx users dont complain about atmos users is because they're not stuck in the childish mentality of "cfw wars"... they tend to not hate in things, with pettiness, as many atmos users do... you're an idiot.

i think when you say assuming idiot when i quote a post that simply said you dont see users slating atmos, as that did not say you dont see sx users slating atmos.

now who is the assuming idiot.

as youll see in my posts, i dont slate atmos, i dont favor it as it only has 1% use for me, where as sx os has everything i need.

you need to take a chill pill as im talking about those that yes use atmos, but the main reason behind why they slate sx os.

when you understand this, then go back to my post, did it justify you quoting me out as a fucking assuming idiot really?

when an idiot confronts someone with ill facts then calls them an idiot, in turn just makes themselves look like a bigger idiot.

sx os is not dead, and like all the other times the retards have tried to claim every other time nintendo released an update, sx os is alot more complicated than a basic cfw that relies on other programmers to release tools that makes its firmware of any use in reality.

also i know that sx os have been working on some other updates prior to 9.0 came out, id rather have a team work on updates and complete them, then move onto the next job than rush shit out just because idiots update their firmware AGAIN when its not needed.

If you have a 9.0.0 nand back up, you can just downgrade with atmo/hekate to 8.1.0, create an emunand on the downgraded partition, then nand flash back to 9.0.

I did this and it worked fine for me, albeit a little bit more of a lengthy process.. took me about 2-3 hours if you include transfer/partitioning times. No ban or anything, and I actively use both OFW and CFW.

you have no proof to back up your claim that tx (whome i may remind have been rocking the 360 scene and still going) gateway are involved.
This is a known fact and you undermine the credibility of the rest of your post by questioning it. The same MIPS virtual machine from Gateway is used in SX OS, for one thing, let alone it having been shown enough times who's behind the scenes.

Gateway has nothing to do with sx os and how it works.

Sure maybe some of the coders worked on both.

But lets be real here and stop been retarded.

We are sick of seeing it each time nintendo roll out a new firmware.

Xecuter sx is not dead.

Now go back to my post before where i explained what xecuter have been upto the last couple of months.

They dont just drop the ball, stop what theyre working on just for a firmware update that is not needed at the moment.

Can you guys just stop arguing about this. They will just fix their software so it works with the new firmware of the card, somehow extract said key they need and of to the races

Cool believe what you want.
Ao to go back to your intial quote your saying the way sx os works on the switch is the same as how gateway worked.

Not the reality that some coders are the same peeps that also code for sx os.

Two completely different things.

Its like your saying a Ferrari is the same as a ford.

When theyre not, engines are completely different.

BUT

You could find one guy who worked on production for ferrari also work for ford.

If the exploit method was the same the dont you think these old models would be blocked by now, and no not a revised model because gateway was blocked fully and even now on launch consoles it will not work on a firmware that cant be downgraded.

Whereas the launch models of the switch will still work all sx have to do is include current firmware keys and update its feaures to run on newer firmwares.

This is why nintendo released a revised model that blocked the exploit because they knew the older models were a lost cause.

Why do you also think they opted into making the lite without detachable joycons which goes against everything they advertised the switch to be.

we have another muppet talking shit as if its facts when its not.

you have no proof to back up your claim that tx (whome i may remind have been rocking the 360 scene and still going) gateway are involved.

as for gateway, they for sure promised an update but idiots like you who dont know the work involved, you just think these hackers can shit out an update and it will work, what you fail to understand is that how the gateway card worked, was bloked years before it died.

they continued to bring support, which involved complicated exploits rather than a simple plug and play, and in the end it become too much hassle and was no longer user friendly for the n00bs, so its days like any exploit had to come to an end.

xecuter is far more complicated than atmos, go fuck off, read the notes about atmos 9.0 update and please run off the list of problems it has.

lets remind ourselves that it still lacks major features that xecuter provides, id rather run a rom than have to fuck about using a 3rd party app to fuck about installing an nsp, or i could if a chose installed either xci and nsp to my switch within sx os with a simply click of the A button.

your failing to understand that when nintendo release a firmware update, they dont just say right if your on 8.1 your blocked, our system looks for 9.x, it actually makes changes to the system, methods like installing apps or games is changed too.

all this has to be fixed each time xecuter do an update, they dont just spit out a firmware to support new keys, they have to test all its features work.

now unless you can make a cfw that offers everything sx os does, id maybe layback on calling them a team that fuck off and leaves customers hung dry.

I have been around in console hacking for a while, even before being a member of this site.

Ps: BTW I am an sx pro user since day one. I really like the convenience of the tool and the ability to load other payloads from xecuter menú. Stop being a simple man, this is a hacking forum, limiting yourself to just one commercial product is rather shocking. People here love homebrew and options.

I also flashed my 360 drive and later installed rgh con the newer slim. I

Fiat does Ferrari and Alfa romeo cars too. In some cases they also share parts and engines.

Here you have your xecuter Ferrari, with some parts made by the fiat atmosphere people. You can even get the xecuter gear in Ferrari red xD and be superior to those fiat atmosphere peasants with loose parts.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
