same boat. I think it's down to the mods needing to be placed somewhere else or needing something additional. I even copied an unaltered actor file straight from my dump and put it by itself in a YUZU modpack in the typical contents/id/romfs directory like i would any other game and it still wouldn't load. YUZU just loads continuously and when tested on my switch console, it causes the whole thing to crash and require a soft reboot

Read OP post for that answer

UPDATE: Well, I've proven it is moddable to an extent with currently existing tools.
Switch Console: FAIL (system crash)
YUZU: FAIL (loads forever)
Ryujinx: Success
All 3, I loaded the mod exactly how you normally would. It really is just a problem with the way Atmosphere and Yuzu patch mods into the game

oohhh... yes i see....this is im moding stuff, yes that stuff can do some nasty stuff to your switch if you dont know what ur doing, not modding without certain knowledge, not moding in this case is a good option

You can't mod ToTK currently on Atmosphere because game has too many files for Atmosphere to handle.
Atmosphere needs new implementation of layeredfs to handle games with big count of files (ToTK and Fire Emblem Engage) since it cannot reserve more space than actually is taking

just a question, atmosphere handled BOTW which has, i think, a large count of files so why he can"t handle TOTK?

Not as much as Engage. And ToTK has more than Engage.

BoTW has less files than Animal Crossing with newest updates installed. Animal Crossing was the first game that had >100k files in romfs.

BoTW was relying on categorizing assets through packaging them, but it seems on Switch in the end streaming works better if those files are not packaged to archives. So they decided to put them naked, compressing them individually.

Same. I think the switch update messed something up.
