So I have been using Hekate, have had no issues until recently where I am unable to install Final Fantasy IX and DLC for VC 4, I get an error message when attempting to install in TinFoil. I have read the games work on SXOS, is it as simple as buying SXOS and just launching into that payload? Or is FFIX playable on non paid CFW

Every person I found who says the game is working is using SXOS, with everyone else saying its not working? Is there something else I should be doing to get it to work?

Possibly. Hekate is not cfw it's the bootloader and what fw version are you on? What CFW are you using? Where did you get the .nsp? What version of tinfoil are you using?

  1. Which system version are you on?
  2. What are the system requirements for the games/DLC you're installing (check the NSP files using Switch Backup Manager)?
  3. Did you install these things using Tinfoil's "ignore system requirements" setting?

Atmosphere 0.8.1 I think its called? I got the NSP off IPT which is 100% legit, My System Firmware was like 6.1 or .2 and I used ChoiDurjourNX to downgrade to 5.0.1 and just ignore firmware in Tinfoil to play most games. Tinfoil 0.2.1

yeah, FFIX only works with SX OS. Apparently it asks for 7.0 and goldleaf and tinfoil are not able to install, or it installs but boots to an error or black screen using ReiNX/Atmosphere

Check certain forum where it is documented.

EDIT: apparently people on that forum are idiots and the game actually works

That was my fear, if I were to just buy an SXOS license, can I run the payload via my PC like I do Hekate or do I have to buy the SX Pro?

False.

Works on 6.2 (ams 0.8.3) installed with Tinfoil.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
