Hacking Discussion Switch backup loading using Atmosphere-NX LayeredFS

[DiJornios]

Don’t dream too much

Well the dreams of endless switch titles at my disposable is already a reality

After finally sifting through all 14 pages, I can confirm this only works on the latest firmware. OP really needs to update his post with that information. Probably why many users can't get this working.

Thank you for saving me having to read 14 pages. Il wait for a more streamlined app

that other title tho

"load backups on your Nintendo Switch using a combination of both hekate-ipl & Atmosphere."

wut , atmosphere is not even released yet

Hekate is a bootloader, not a CFW. Its the name of the payload.bin. It loads a very early compiled build of Atmopshere that only boots the homebrew menu. So, the description is accurate.

Hekate actually uses the code from Atmosphere with some workarounds

At this rate it's gonna take much less than a month lol. I'd say within a week we'd get a usable free solution. I know you went all out for TX and I very much respect their work too. But really, they took too long to get their shit out. Too long. I mean if they got their thing out a few months earlier I am sure alot more people would be all over it.

Do you truly, honestly think this stuff isn't going to be worked out in a short period of time? Is this your first rodeo around these parts?

Yeah my first time. If you don't count hacking a wiiu, 3ds, Wii, ps2, ps3, Xbox 360, og Xbox, psp and psp vita.

Anyone have tested MK8dx, or maybe it dosn't work with games above a certain size ?

It is the same price as a Switch game, so I don't really mind too much as I'd use that money for another Switch game anyway. I get the license early next week and I can start to use it before the dongle comes as I ordered from shop01media.

Recent development takes time, if that would be the case we would have a fully functional atmosphere with backup loading and installers, not this

Not to be rude, but by hacking you mean by downloading and running a couple of files right?

I have all of those, except the Wii U as I just sold mine as it was just gathering dust and I didn't see a use for it.

I really can't understand this TX over atmosphere war on this forum. If TX OS releases earlier, I'll be using that. If it's Atmo, TX can kiss my ass. It's a win-win scenario.

You're just a noob, not a pirate. Saves works by the way. And as usual it's a proof of concept

There is also open source dongle with fusée-lede so...

Sorry didn't see that saves were working. And I'm far from a noob. I've hacked plenty of consoles in the last decade.

You name will be forever remembered for generations to come, everyone will know about your sacrifice (actually good luck tho)

You brave, brave soul. We shall not forget your sacrifice.

Ever hack a psp back in the day with a battery? A ps2 with agent under fire and the swap disc trick? An Xbox 360 with connecting the DVD drive through sata to a pc. How about compiling godmode9 for the 3ds? Far from "downloading a few files".

wait what

What settings do I have to use to extract the romfs.bin and the exefs from an nca in Hactoolgui? (or just hactool-command-line?)

I've added the keys, but don't get how to extract the exefs in a folder :/
