I just tried doing the whole CFW thing on my switch and its working more or less but I'm really confused about one point.
Most of my games are digital titles downloaded and purchased from the eshop and I'd like to continue to play these/buy others in the future. But after following the guides, and setting up a partition with emunand for CFW boots and a separate stock boot I'm wondering why only a handful of games are available to play. Others say "needs update" or "needs to be downloaded"
So why is this exactly?
I figured since the emunand is a copy its catching the access so to speak from the titles that were last installed before the emunand's creation? But this seems weird since I downloaded on OFW, completed and worked fine. When I go to CFW to play with cheats, the games are not accessible.
THEN I saw that the emunand is looking in its own folder for the route to the games. I changed this to the base Nintendo folder and its still not finding all the games. It found a few of them but its not finding others. This is what the file commands look like:
[emummc]
enabled=1
sector=0xb438000
path=emuMMC/RAW1
id=0x0000
nintendo_path=Nintendo
I know its a partition drive now so the games are going to a different place (the Nintendo folder I assume) but its still not finding them even changing the file as above. Is Am I off base and doing something completely wrong?
Sorry for the long post. I've been at this literally all day and can't find a solid answer to this so I want to be as detailed as possible. I literally just want CFW to apply cheats to stuff like Octopath and other RPGs, not for other mods/other things at the moment so its really frustrating since most guides just have cheats as a side feature.
