Hey guys! Is the Litium app supposed to list off game names when installing over USB? It only shows the game IDs and it's starting to get a bit confusing when installing stuff!

are they only brand new games? or all games? There is some lag time with the metadata being updated, but there will be a fallback soon to show some name instead of just title id when its missing metadata. Alternatively, if you download the nightly of lithium, and the nightly of nut and run server.py, you can just add usbfs and browse the PC files directly.

@blawar I just fixed it, actually! I was using a backup folder for my programs and it didn't have the keys.txt file! I added it to my folder and everything works now! My bad haha

I just found what is the problem of the crashing, you must avoid the characters such as `-! in the nsp files and folders. This cause a crash. Just rename nsp and it will work.

Is there any way to transfer through usb from Mac? The nut server is an exe.

yes, download master, and run server.py

lithium makes folder named 'tinfoil' under /switch.

is it intended?

yes, it shares its settings with tinfoil.

does it crash if you exit the app without doing any installs? and did you do a usb install?
I'm also getting this same problem on 7.0.1; I am doing a usb install and right as the download finishes, atmosphere crashes and upon reboot nothing new shows up on my home screen. I was able to install from sd card and from nut serve via network successfully though.

EDIT: nevermind, I just had to restart my computer after installing libusbK lol
