I mean this, you said this program, just find the payload and some sd card files.
True, but I'm assuming it will have the fixed sleep mode with it and I only completely shut off my Switch when I REALLY want to conserve battery.
I am talking about the free licence bullshit.
lol. they DRM the payload to your console. so that you cannot even use it on another one you buy when the first one breaks. I am quite certain all they did in the last weeks is DRM that thing to hell and back to prevent their piracy device from being pirated. we will see how skilled the community is. true blue took quite some time to be cracked.
wait and be surprised, lol! you won't even be able to load it without the license!

of course not, but it seems most newbies here did not even hear of brickway until now. yes, I know they pretend NOT to be the same party. and it does not even matter. gateway showed that it is possible. and they got away with it. their product was still bought after that scandal!
You continue to be aggressively dumb.
No one needs to 'show' that it is possible to delete essential OS files, of course that is possible. Once one has full control, it is trivial to brick a system.
It is known who was behind Gateway. That group, the people behind it have no relation to Xecuter. That is just fact. Stop saying dumb shit.
payload can't be DRMed because it can't be stored. How would you DRM something which can't be tied to HW or SW?

God, you moron kids....
The payload itself can be sent to the Switch using a generic 'payload loader' app. The stuff that the TX CFW does that people want will not function without either a valid license or a cracked version of the payload.
TX is perfectly capable of attempting to protect their CFW stuff while retaining the ability to send the payload using generic hardware/software. The security does not need to be tied to the ability to 'send' the payload itself.

but you started the "DRMed payload" stuff, which is not possible.
Dude, the payload can't be cracked. There is nothing which can be obfuscated or somehow inaccessible there.
I did no such thing. You are confused.
The lack of technical knowledge on display in this thread is honestly breathtaking.

Not that it really matters, but I could argue that it is technologically possible to DRM the payload itself, just not well without investing substantial mental effort. You could have layers of obfuscation - the file you download from TX is encrypted, the dongle decrypts it in memory, serializes it for your Switch and shoots it over to the Switch itself. That's obviously not a workable solution; there is hardware that allows the capture of USB traffic, but that would count in the minds of most as 'drming the payload'. Most all DRM is ultimately layers of obfuscation; conditional access is not possible (or even desirable) in all scenarios.
It's difficult to do such a thing well. It's a lot easier to do what TX is actually doing. But it's not impossible. And precious few of the borderline computer illiterates that occupy this message board are in any way qualified to argue otherwise.

Problem is that whatever it shoots needs to be .bin, so the file can be obfuscated, but the payload (stuff which it shoots) can't, which means that you can possibly create another payload which would download the current one to SD. (my guess tho)
Again: not true. The actual payload you download from TX does not have to be in the clear. It could easily be an encrypted package that gets decrypted by the dongle. There are simple methods to break such a scheme, but implementing one is not impossible.
Just because what gets sent to the Switch has to be sent in the clear does not mean that it is impossible to implement DRM on top of it. Most all DRM deals with content that ultimately must be in the clear - think books, which have to be displayed on an insecure eInk display. Just because the end result is 'in the clear' does not mean that DRM is impossible, though it does substantially increase the difficulty of creating an effective DRM scheme.

But the dongle shoots .bin. That .bin can't be obfuscated, otherwise, it wouldn't load. So it has to be a clear .bin file.
