So, lets start where my struggles began. The past few weeks I always had a bit of struggle with getting into Atmosphere, it was very random when the Switch had decided to actually boot and when the screen just went black and didnt move anymore after the Atmosphere logos. But with a little bit of trial and error it usually always booted the switch into CFW so I didnt think too much about it. While having these problems, I also got a yellow text saying "Old nyx.gui found. There will be dragons!" When starting Hekate. Then one day, I was just starting a Pokemon game on my switch, it suddenly died leaving an error code, but there was no problem and enough battery left too (It was the first time it ever died that random).

Fast forward, I cant boot up into Atmosphere AT ALL anymore. The two atmosphere logos show up briefly (first one maybe 1 sec, second one around 3) and then my screen becomes an endless black, no matter how long I wait it would just stay black. I got rid of the Hekate dragon error and no error is shown anymore to me at all, but I still cant boot up my switch into Atmosphere, I feel like Ive tried every possible solution under the moon now, but I just cant get it to boot up. When choosing the fusee.bin directly it used to be the exact same as right now, but when launching with Hekate and choosing CFW on emummc it usually showed following error:

Error while loading fss0:

atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin

Wrong in cfg or missing/corrupt files

Failed to launch HOS/

)

Now that error is gone as I replaced the hekate_ipl and also completely deleted and reinstalled the Atmosphere and Bootloader folder + sigpatches. I also deleted the contents folder already, tried to replace the payloads, but it still doesnt seem to work. I also cant launch stock option from hekate, it shows the nintendo logo and then goes completely black too.

My two possible thoughts were now:
-as far as I remember I didnt update my software, could it be that my atmosphere version now isnt compatible with my switch ver? (I acc dont think so, but Im not sure)
-could something with my emummc be wrong and how could I find that out ? or fix it

I am legit super desperate, Ive been sitting here for 3 days trying to figure out a solution to my problem. If anyone could help me, Id be so relieved, I literally cant think of any other solutions anymore (+ I am also very much a noob, so excuse me if I have to ask some simple questions again ).

That problem looks tailor-made for @binkinator , he helped a lot of users with similar problems in the Switch Noob's paradise thread. But I haven't seen him much recently, I hope he's alright. Anyway, I guess you could backtrack in that thread starting from the last page until you see his posts. With some luck, some of his posts will give you a good hint on how to fix your problems. Basically, you would erase or rename your old versions of Hekate and Atmosphere, and re-install the latest versions. After that, if everything works as it should, you re-install your games if needed.

Delete the CFW files, replace the one from the Atmosphere/Hekate github.
I've already swept the SD card except for the Nintendo and emmumc folders, I just retested and upon launching emmumc got this error:

Code:
Panic ocurred while running atmosphere

title ID: 01000000000000002B
error: std::abort (0xFFE)

Press power to continue.

Check your content folder to see if you have a 01000000000000002B folder.

    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I bet @AncientBoi has some hamsters hidden somewhere tho....

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    im taking a break for today anyway

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
