Fluffy

So what's different about Fluffy?
Fluffy is the first to introduce:

• Goldleaf and Tinfoil Support.
• USB and Network install with transfer rate and progress bar.
• Display current install rate in MB/ for both USB and Network mode(Goldleaf & Tinfoil too)
• Display current NCA name and count.
• Transfer mode option switchable between "Normal" and "Safe".
• Individual NSP selection (suggested by: ShadowHand, thanks!)
• Show current NSP being installed
• Switch connected indicator
• USB 5.x Fix (Compatible with Firmware versions 5.x and below)

How-To-Use

• Download and Install Python 3 from https://www.python.org/downloads/. Ensure no previous version of Python is installed. This may cause an error "PyUSB not found". Do not use the 64-bit version of Python 3 with Fluffy.
• Open Terminal/CMD
• Run "pip3 install pyusb" and "pip3 install pyqt5" and "pip3 install libusb" and "pip3 install libusb1"
• MacOS users must also run "brew install libusb". For more info on brew, head to https://brew.sh/.

Going forward,
I plan to support Fluffy for the foreseeable future.

I hope this tool can help anyone and everyone that uses it,

Your Pyusb and Libusb are not installed properly

That's weird, I just ran the install commands again and it says the requirement is already satisfied. Doesn't bother me much because I managed to use Goldtree, but it's still anoying.

pip3 install pyqt5

I cant run Fluffy because log file says im missing this but when I try the command above, all I get is this

C:\WINDOWS\system32>py

You must execute that pip3 command outside the python commandline environment. I mean, just start a command line (cmd, etc. on windows) and then try pip3 command.

I ended up uninstalling python and installing 3.7.2 and now it seems to be once step further but now this error from the log.

I tried using goldleaf v0.3 and to get the switch to be detected inside fluffy I had to copy libusb-1.0.dll inside the same folder

@KTroopA

3/3) Install PyUSB, LibUSB, PyQt5, QDarkStyle

• Open Command-line/CMD (Start, search "CMD") and run the following:

pip3 install pyusb pyqt5 libusb libusb1 qdarkstyle

Additional Windows Instructions
Some users may receive the error "USB.Core No Backend Available". If you do, download this .DLL file libusb.dll and place it in the same directory as Fluffy.pyw.

If you still receive this error, you can try installing LibUSB: libusb installer.

Thank you mate for the quick reply, I mamaged to get it working finally. It was the driver in zadig that I missed. RTFM lol.. I assumed it was using the same driver for RCM mode, it does not! I installed correctly and all works now Thank OP for a really handy app.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Oops.. installing a NSP atm and seems to be frozen on 2%, goldleaf says average speed 0MB/s. I assume its crashed .

Grrr I cant seem to win with this app right now. I have this error now when installing a NSP.

I have tried Fluffy with tinfoil and goldleaf, and also goldleaf with goldtree. The result is the same, the NSP starts to install and then after 2% it just stops and sits there. What is the cause please, I have tried several NSP files, same thing happens each time. Fluffy throws up an exception after like 1-2mins

 

[Deleted User]

You tried another cable?

 

[KTroopA]

You tried another cable?

Im using the switch pro controller cable, that should work?

Ok i tried another cable and this time the install reached 6% and then hung again. Transfer feed reads 0MB/s as before. I give up

 

[KTroopA]

@fourminute Can you advise please what is this error and the fix?

 

[fire10]

Great app thanks loads. I've tested 2 .nsps Mario deluxe at around 3.50gb installed great via tinfoil, super smash bros via both tinfoil and goldleaf gets to around 96% and freezes with an eventual tinfoil error. Maybe from converting the file from xci to nsp via 4nxci, I will test further

 

[linuxares]

I got the most odd glitch yesterday with Fluffy. I think however it's Tinfoil that can't do too long names? When I tried to send over a nsp with like 30-40 letters in it, Tinfoil crashed. however it worked fine via Network since Fluffy then sent over a shortername without issues.

Great info I'll try that mate thankyou

What transfer rate should I be getting? Im using a usb 3.0 to usb-c cable in a usb 3.0 port but only getting 16 MB/s average.

You should get around 40. But why you describe can be your microsd card not being rated for higher speeds.
Test another cable so it isn't the issue.

This!
My installation would randomly get stuck at 0 mb/s with my 64 gb (HC brand??) card while it goes fine with the 128 gb (sandisk ultra).

As I said in another thread. SD Cards are a bunch of bastards!

So true! Since I had space in my 64 gb I decided to install the huge NBA2K 2019.
The game was literally running in slowmotion at first and after three reboots it got better.
That's how I knew the SD card was at fault (although it's a class 10!)
