Hi all. I am a noob to modding and hacking. I have several NSP and XCI files and I have a gen 1 switch. Yesterday I managed to follow this guide - . Today when I try to load BOTW which is 15 Gigs onto the SD card - it also gives me the same FAT32 error as above.

Please explain in simple English/post youtube videos on what I should do next to install digital games on the SD card used in the above mentioned youtube mod process. Meanwhile I too will google for tinfoil. Many thanks!!

Add: I did see a video on tinfoil and in that they say tinfoil wont work with hekate. But the above youtube video i followed had hekate. I am very confused!

Get a big difference USB stick. Format it to exfat. Put you're XXL game on it, plug it into the Switch usb and install the game to the switch.

That's my idiotproof lowtech solution

Forget about "tinfoil" and just use Awoo Installer instead.
 
Hi guys, so, I'm transferring NSPs from my PC to my Switch SD Card (128GB Fat32). It was working fine until I transferred Ys VII which is 14GB. An error popped up saying File size is too large for destination filesystem. I still have 73GB of free storage. What should I do? Thanks in advance

Use NSPSplitty to split the nsp before putting it onto the switch

After you split the nsp you can download via. usb or on the system
