Hacking Need assistance - SX OS to Atmosphere

[Nicker1984]

Hi

I haven't updated my Switch firmware for a long time, and I'm using SX OS 2.9.2

Now I'm trying to run some newer games (XCI) and they just show up as white blank squares on the game select menu, I'm guessing I have a too old firmware?

How do I run Atmosphere instead of SXOS? I havent set up any emunand (i know there are guides to go from SX OS with emunand to Atmosphere) but I've got no emunand setup. I have a Switch bought 2018 or 2019.

You could patch the games to work on lower FW - If you did not want to worry about upgrading to Atmosphere for now...using this for NSP files - https://gbatemp.net/threads/renxpack-repack-nintendo-switch-nsps-to-work-on-lower-firmwares.535614/
For XCI files - https://gbatemp.net/threads/nsc_bui...lder-game-updates-dlc-in-a-single-xci.522486/

Or if you wanted to make the move to Atmosphere, here - https://gbatemp.net/threads/latest-sd-setup-for-moving-from-sxos-to-atmosphere.581237/

Set up an emunand and update it to 11.0. All games will work
