I'll admit I am an atomosphere noob
after three days of following different guides I have finally made the transition from sx to atmosphere

I have the following
system version 13.1.0
atmosphere 1.2.4
my sigpatches are the latest itotaljustice ones

my issue is this
new titles install and play flawlessly

older titles that I previously used to play on sx- I can neither launch them nor reinstall them

So to my noobish mind it does not seem like a sig patch issue

I have even downgraded my FW to 11, but it has not made a difference to launch those older games with no luck

I suspect I have to delete traces of those old games on my sd card or console memory but I am not clever enough to figure out how
Any help appreciated

TLDR
upgraded to atmosphere, latest sigpatches
can play new games
cannot play/ install, older, previously installed games
any help appreciated thanks

If you made a NAND backup before installing SX OS then you could try backing up all your save data, restoring your NAND and then run Atmosphere with sigpatches.

I seem to recall something about in certain instances some games installed on sx os cant be installed on atmosphere. cant recall clearly enough though.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.

    @BigOnYa, thx in advance
