Hello everybody
I am new and I am writing this post because I have big troubles with NSP Switch games. I cannot launch them and error message is always related to sigpatches. I was able to launch CFW and also play some games, but most of them I cannot run.
I write you down my Switch configuration, but is a regular one.
Switch firwmare version: 13.2.1
Atmosphere firmware version: 1.2.6
Hetake firmware version: 5.7.0
I run, first, Hetake and from it I execute payload.bin to enter into Atmosphere. Once there, I use Goldleaf to install NSP games. Here, some games (few) I was able to install them, but most of them I cannot install and error message is alwasy about sigpatches.
I cannot understand how to fix it, because I tried everything. Changing Switch firwmare, aligning also Atmosphere firmware and with it also releted sigpatches. I tried to download them from many site, also using the ones suggested in this forum, but nothing.
If someone could write me down, step by step, what I have to do to have my games install it would be very nice
Thanks a lot
 
thanks for sharing
I have some doubts, anyway
step 9
"All tabs have the "Make Patch" button, you can press the button to search for the file/folder or drag and drop the file/folder on the button and the patches will be generated."
Wich file/folder am I suppose to choose, for each different tab?
Once made all patches, have I to put each generated file in the related subfolder of my SD card? And then, also patches.ini in bootloader folder? But have I to replace patches.ini file or merge it with the existing one? From your guide these additional steps are not clear (I won't use FTP feature, want to do by hand)
Ah, soory, I have another doubt: I have prod.keys taken from my switch with Lockpick_RCM, but are these keys absolute, or do they changes from one OFW to another? Also this part is not clear in the guide. If it is so, then I have to take again the keys...and then make the sigpatches against current OFW, in the previous step...
Could you please clarify?
Thank you
For generate the patches for Atmosphère you need the file "Package3" you are using.
For generate the FS, ES y NFIM patches you need the folder of the firmware you are running on the console.

will put that on the guide later today.

Package3-> is the file you can find in the SD card directly? If so, I used this and so I did that patch
Other patches-> ok, I guess so. I unzip fw 14.1.2, and given its path to sw but it failed making those patches...is it possible or it must work? Maybe it does not support latest fw?!?! That fw has been used, than to update the console using daybreak once having copied on SD card. Is everything correct in your opinion? If so, I cannot make patches,3 of 4 at least. Keys dumped were tha same switching from fw 14 to 14.1.2, and this is what I expected, answering an old question of mine...
Thanks for updating tutorial
Wait for your answer
Bye

that's the idea.

you process the Atmosphère and/or firmware files and generate the sigpatches BEFORE upgrading(on downgrading) you console, then copy the new sigpatches to your console. now you are prepared to the upgrade.

Ok now I got it.
But what about error making files I tell you before? Is it strange or could happen? Any work around?
 
In the hekate_ipl.ini file, you can start the atmosphere in two ways

fss0=atmosphere/package3
or
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee.bin

Are there any differences between them?

finally I was able to generate sigpatches by myself, with the related sw
Put them on SD card, I tried to transfer a file that I know for sure that it works, but the result is the one in attach:
Thank you regards
