Ever since I updated to sxos 2.0 this morning my games have been freezing up causing me to do a hard reset every time. I’m using trimmed and split XCIs on a FAT32 Sandisk sd card if it matters. Just curious if anyone else is having this problem? Any ideas on a fix?

Which game specifically is freezing? I've seen reports on The Messenger and i think Xenoblade Chronicles freezing with SX OS 2.0
Hyrule warriors legends :/ any chance you could point me to the reports of other game crashes? I couldn’t find anything.

It was random posts on current threads about SX OS, i think afew of them were on the thread about the announcement of SX OS 2.0

EDIT: Also what OFW are you on? 5.1? 6.0?

You on Nintendo version 6.0 or 5.1?

No

No, full size xci and 4.10. I have played it for a few days and no crashes. Played today with 2.0 and it crashes enough to make me stop playing it.
Interesting. Sorry that’s happening to you but it is comforting to know that it isn’t just me.

Yeah SX OS 2.0 is very buggy right now. I'd advise that if you can find the previous version, downgrade to that and try it again, see if it works

Could be. But it’s a new 128gb sandisk. Confirmed legitimate not a fake. I will run h2w test just to make sure. Thanks for the input.
If you have been writing and re-writing a ton maybe it's badly fragmented.

If there is not another sd around to format and try with, maybe give it the old backup, panasonic sd formatter, then teracopy the files back to it.

I just formatted it yesterday and wrote about 12 XCIs to it. It shouldn’t have fragmented that quickly right?

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • 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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

    run h2testw on it
