For some reason i've found my self with two copy of kosmos tool box in my sd card (one was 1.0.0 and the other was 1.0.1), now if u know how the latest tool box work you know that there's a button that allow you to access your homebrew menu (with the album+R button combo) the thing is that the older version (the 1.0.0) didn't had that, and create a conflict with the newer app, the thing is that now i've lost access to my homebrew menu, and i don't know how to get back in, the good thing is that the switch works normally.
I've already tried to delete (both version) and to put back in the latest one but i still can't access the HB menu.

1.0.0 and 1.0.1? What FW are you on? The latest version of Kosmos is 12.1.1 so I'm not sure why you would be using 1.0.0 and 1.0.1.

Ah yes, its' because the newer toolbox is in it's own folder. If you go to your Switch folder on your SD Card, you will see, I think it was called toolbox.nro in the switch root. Delete that one :)
For your config issue, Enter the toolbox, press the hotkey (different button than the R), then save. Enter the toolbox again and change it back to R and tada.

If he lost access to hbmenu he can't change the hotkey. Noob fix: Download newer version of kosmos, delete older kosmos on SD (keep the nintendo folder) and extract the new version there.

I've lost access to my hb menu too.

Somehow in Kosmos-too-box i changed the hotkey. The box displayed an 'R' first then an 'A' but now i can't access the hb menu to change it back.

I went on the SD card and deleted kosmos-tool-box and reinstalled it from the zip file but it still doesn't work.

I know what i've done, i've changed the way i access the hb menu but i don't know what it is!

I've tried double clicking A on the album

I've tried double clicking on album with A

I've tried holding all the buttons, while on menu pressing A.. NOTHING...

Please help!

Delete the config.json. Turn on the console and hold R while opening the Album. Otherwise inject the fusee-primary.bin directly and hold then the R Button to trigger the hbmenu. You should be able to change that afterwards if you can boot.

Does the KOSMOS toolbox still work on newest Atmosphère versions to toggle sysmodules?
If so, does anyone have the latest toolbox version?

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s

  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
