I think there are two methods, because Rei had this described several days ago on his Guide, and now he removed it.
The text he removed explains that if you are using a ReiNX "legacy" release you need the 100D folder. if you are using a nightly build you need hbl.nro
I don't know what is a legacy release. Stable release I think...
Now this part is removed from the guide, and he only states you need hbl.nro and the ini file.
The weird part is that on the SD tree view print you can still see a titles folder, but is empty!

And I also tested tis:
- If you use the 100D folder without hbl.nro it replaces the album.
- and vice versa: if you use hbl.nro without 100D folder it replaces the album too!

I never tried using the two at the same time, maybe this is my problem, but I don't understand why the two are needed if they do the same thing.

I tried the original file as is, with this line:
hbKeyCombo=!R

I tried changing to =R and it's not loaded at all.
But again I did't tried using the two methods at the same time!

I'm using the nightly from a week or so ago that was compatible with 6.2. Is this new stable build using the same bin, or do I need to reflash my dongle?

Can I use/boot ReiNX with Hekate?
Yes. Add
Code:
[ReiNX]
payload=/ReiNX.bin

{ }
below your [CFW] entry (so one or two lines under it's { } ), but above the {---- Miscellaneous ---} or {--- Other ---} header.

Then place "ReiNX.bin" in the bootloader/payloads folder root of the SD card. If you did this right the anime splash screen for ReiNX will show when you try to boot it.

Here's a part of my hekate_ipl.ini for reference.
(Don't just copy paste mine in case you have a different setup. It's just so you can see generally how it's supposed to look.)

Code:
{-- Custom Firmwares --}

[CFW]
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee-primary.bin
atmosphere=1

{ }

[ReiNX]
payload=ReiNX.bin

{ }

{---- Miscellaneous ---}

[Stock]

{ }

Anyone can give more info about the cheat feature?
From what I can gather, the new additions allow you to run the TX rommenu nro app as homebrew without an SX OS license and therefore allow you to use the cheat function built into that.

Is there any way to implement that on atmosphere ?

Only if the atmosphere developers implement these services, too. It might not be in their interest, though, they might favor implementing their own services.

Let's not forget that atmosphere is heavily against piracy and implementing these services from TX might simply be something they want to avoid as it apparently would also require implenting a subset of their piracy services.

I need some help!

I use ReiNX and I know you can use two methods to replace Album with Homebrew:

1- Use hbl.nro on ReiNX folder
2- Use this folder instead: ReiNX\titles\010000000000100D

ReiNX guide didn't say anything about titles folder because you don't need it anymore. For ReiNX 2.0, you no longer need titles. Delete that! :)

There is no titles folder needed ? So for example if I want a mod for TBOI or PLG, I just put the mod on a folder ?

I have no idea. I don't use the mod at all. I don't need mod. I am just playing normal Nintendo Switch games and titles folder are no longer need. If you want a mod then you need layeredfs to enable. And switch with ReiNX; after go to the toolkit and you should see kip manager. You want fs_mitm.kip and, loader.kip, pm.kip and sm.kip to have a ✔ and not an ✖.

Thanks for the info!
So, can you tell me if the customization for hbloader set on hbl-config.ini file works for you?

Edit: ReiNX guide now explains the two methods again!! Still doesn't work.

Was Xci loading announced by rei or did I misread that somewhere somehow?
I've only heard rumors so I can't confirm it but what I know for sure is that Rei said the main focus right now is the cheat functionality, so even if it's a yes it might take a while before XCI loading in ReiNX will become a thing.
That aside, if the end goal is to reimplement all of TX's ervices in ReiNX (and from the looks of it, this should be the case) I don't see why it wouldn't happen. Still, unless Rei confirms it, take what I said with a grain of salt!

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves

    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages

    It does that when I edit a post.
