You are great man,Thanks
Not emummc but Hekate 5.5.5 and atmos 0.19.1
Also works well after restarting Switch.

I was looking at your process. nro2nsp is just a tool that automates the process. like you said you can use hacbrewtool to generate nsp with the latest libnx. I don't understand the hb loader enough to work on it. but could you send me your source files so that I'm able to use them as a template and build from there. or
could you provide me with your guide on how to do it, please? what changes did you made on the hbloader code to boot a nro from a different location?

@Meliodas2255 just get hbl and replace default nro (hbmenu) that will be enough.
I've done that, but i must be doing something wrong. help me out. (in my case, I'm trying to built a forwarder for retroarch). it works. I used your pplay.nsp by renaming the retroarch.nro to pplay.nro. and it boots it and you can launch any games with it. so I'm trying to recreate what you did but it closes as en error when I launch it.
1. download the hbloader source code, edit the main.c to define DEFAULT_NRO to "sdmc:/switch/retroarch.nro"
1. edit the hbl.json (app title, and app title_id) rename it to retroarch.json
2. compile the files. it creates the exefs/main and main.npdm and the nacp file (i used devitkitpro, and edited the makefile to export the nacp as well,i used the cmd "make")
3. set up the hacbrewpack folders
logo
control
romfs
exefs
prod.keys.
I'm pretty sure the problem lies on how I compile the control.nacp, and exefs files.
How do you do it? would you mind helping me out.
Thanks Bro,Am I a fool if I ask you to please make a NSP but for RetroArch? I beg you. I have tried with Hacbrewpack and it didn't work. I'm not an expert on this :S.
Can anyone make a new nro2nsp? That would make things a lot easier....
@Meliodas2255 right now I am using this:

Can you just do us all a favor and make one for retroarch? I tried what you said but couldn't do it.
You can download from here.

Just made me wonder... How can your forwarder be working while all the others I have don't? Since I updated my atmosphere and my firmware it doesn't work at all. Even the ones I tried to create.
Maybe it is disabled in control.nacp
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
easy - it is build upon new hbl and libnx
I can confirm that all the forwarders found here that specify they were updated for Atmosphere 19 work fine for me:
https://psxtools.de/forum/index.php...ür-euch-homebrew-aus-dem-switch-menu-starten/
Currently I've got forwarders for HBmenu, Retroarch, NX-Shell and Goldleaf - very happy with my current setup.

I've created a quick tool to build it https://gbatemp.net/threads/nsp-forwarder-tool-for-12.587936/

Since forwarders are broken in 12 I've decided to move all my Retroarch roms to PC. Will I be able to transfer my save states and saves to Retroarch PC without issue?
