Fire Emblem: Three Houses just received its 1.2.0 update, but I'm still on 1.1.1 because I've got working cheats and a save editor for it.
Is it possible to backup the 1.1.1 update, then use it to downgrade back to it should 1.2.0 prove undesirable? If it is possible, how would I do it?

Of course I'll backup my save data first using Checkpoint, so save corruption's not an issue.

So...nxdumptool's asking for a "keys file"; can I just use the Lockpick app (which gets keys 00-05, apparently), or do I need to use Lockpick_RCM to get "newer keys"?

Also, what do I dump? ExeFS dump? RomFS dump?

...I'm brand-new to nxdumptool; forgive me.

Oh, so I'm guessing it's one of those "missing base application" hidden things in NXDumpTool?
Fire Emblem: Three Houses v262144 (010055D009F78800) (Update)? Followed by NSP dump? I think I do have to use Lockpick_RCM, since it apparently doesn't have the right keys...

    One of the nice things about living in Oceania is that MMOs are rarely populated during the day or evening.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Hm? Don't you clash with asian

    countries?
  • ZucchiniMaiden @ ZucchiniMaiden:
    @Skelletonike Only if the game doesn't have dedicated servers for Asia and Oceania.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Hm, I wonder if I should get the switch 2 case from aliexpress and tempered screen, or pay like triple from the same place as the switch 2 z.z
  • ZucchiniMaiden @ ZucchiniMaiden:
    The Switch 2 is already so expensive that you should probably buy budget where you can.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Eh, still cheaper than the others.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    If I order from aliexpress I can get a case for 8€
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    thumbs for 2€and a tempered screen for 4€
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Locally I can get a tempered screen for 8 and 3 sets of sticks for 5€
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Case is 10€
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    With the discount the store has it ends up everything for 20€ so it's roughly 8€dif

    Been trying, semi unsuccessfully, to figure out a TV "streaming dongle" sort of thing that has enough beans to handle Steam Remote Play. The "Chromecast with Google TV 4k" devices that I have introduce so much video latency it's crazy. And I've had no luck finding a good setup with an rPi yet
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Used to think the video latency issue was because it was on wifi, but nope, same shit even after moving them to ethernet

    @Sicklyboy have you tried the xiaomi ones? I have a 4 year old one that managed to work just fine (tested once for fun).
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Skelletonike, nope, not yet. only tried a LineageOS Android TV build and raspbian (with Plasma Big Screen which I can't get to work) on a pi4. Was thinking about running over to walmart today and seeing if they had their "Onn" brand Android streaming box in stock. Heard good things about those
