Goldleaf

Goldleaf is a multipurpose homebrew tool for Nintendo Switch!

Similar to the well-known 3DS homebrew FBI, Goldleaf serves as a file browser/manager/editor, title manager, user account manager... and more!



Let Goldleaf make your life easier while dealing with more or less technical Nintendo Switch stuff!

Cannot seem to have any luck with this anymore.. used to work pretty nice.

On 0.5 release, I always get the error that the title is already installed. Someone mentioned "Replace NCA" option, but I don't see anything like that anywhere, and no google search gives any results... what is this?

If I try latest nightly build as of now, I get error "Metadata could not be located in the NCA(3)"...

Anyone know what's going on?

EDIT: Forgot to say some details.

Switch is 7.0.1 using ReiNX.

Replace (reinstall?) NCA is a tinfoil option, someone was confused. Lastest nightly is broken. I'd roll back to 6.2, 7.0.1 will cause you problems and there is no need to be on it.

Delete the game from the switch software setting and remove the tickets from goldleaf then try again

Seems like an unfortunate solution, as it happened over several games... Does this mean I should uninstall all and re-install each base + update?
Yea you can try that on affected games
I only had this happen to me once, maybe you can try other GUI like NS-USBloader?

SO i have tried installing a few games via USB but i always seem to get an error message.....

Error: 0x234a02
Module: FS (2)
Description: Invalid NCA (might mean missing sigpatches or a too low firmware) (4517)

I have the latest 0.5 of goldleaf installed and am on FW 7.0.1 on the Switch, the games install fine if i try and install them from the SD card so its not the nsp file thats the issue!.

Any ideas what the issue can be?

I'm using the latest Goldleaf nightly on my just-hacked Switch.
I tired installing any NSP from my SD card, but right when I select "Yes" on the "ignore firmware" propmt, the Switch freezes for a while and then simply errors out with an Atmosphere error.

Did I miss something?

So I removed 3 titles with Goldleaf today that were installed on my sdcard.
The titles are gone from the main menu but it didn't make any room on my sdcard.
How can I track them down on my sdcard to delete them?

So when I install games with Goldleaf, they always seem to end up corrupt and not working. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong, any ideas?

I was able to install the base Cuphead game using OG Tinfoil but the update failed to install. The update installed just fine on Goldleaf though. SX OS 2.6.2, OFW 7.0.1.

Guys usb installing is not working for me anymore. I don't know what else to try. Everything was working just days ago so the drivers are fine. I already tried reinstalling the driver with zadig, restarting the pc and switch, using goldtree and nsusbinstaller, trying different usb ports. The pc is showing the switch connected in device manager. I tried lithium and nut server and it worked but not goldleaf. Please help. The only reaction I get from goldtree is when I disconnect the cable from the switch and goldtree says an invalid command was recieved. I'm on ns v.7.0.1 gl v5.0

Edit: Just tried OG Tinfoil 0.2.1 with ns-usbloader and it worked first try so the problem is with goldleaf specifically :unsure:

Edit 2: Just tried the nsp instead of the nro version and it's working so the problem is specifically with the nro somehow. I tried redownloading the nro but still. I'll keep using the nsp version for now but as soon as I press the home button I always get a fatal error. That's why I wanted to use the nro version and exit via +.

seems to be a twofold issue from chatter on discord:

apparently some of hbg's updates are showing as having modified nca files because they removed deltas

and

goldleaf works with the broken update because goldleaf ignores the cert and uses it’s own, which is actually kind of bad


I dont have Cuphead or the update to test.. so can anyone verify either / both of the above comments?

The same issue also happened with the Smash 3.0 update. If it also came from HBG then maybe this is the issue. I didn't get the NSPs directly from HBG so I'm not sure where they originated.

Goldleaf does install NSPs from SD, yes. Don't know that there is much reason to upgrade unless you are on FW 7.x though.

Hey I just saw this, so I'm actually thinking about upgrading from 6.2 to 7.0.1 using Choi just to stay up to date with everything. I'm assuming the safe bet is to move to Goldleaf if I'm on 7.0.1 since GL is still being updated and I assume Dopus is a dead project, right?
