Hacking Switch controller set up between multiple SD cards.

[DaSkanker]

So I currently have a 3 SD card set up for my switch.
I enter all 3 through CFW emuMMC from Atmosphere.
I have 4 blue tooth controllers, a mix of switch and PS4 and I would like it so that I don't have to repair/connect each time I switch between SD cards.
Is it possible to drag and drop a file from one SD card to another so that they each share then same controller connection settings to save me having to do this?
And if so where on my SD card would controler connections be saved to on each of my SD cards?

Sorry if this question has been asked before but i couldn't find what i was looking for else where.

I suppose you can use ftpsrv to do this too.

Try these at your own risk. I might have done the first one before but that was years ago. I have just been repairing for the last few years.

I think there is some warning about the file having more information than just the controllers



Be prepared for pain if you do stuff like this, it's only a matter of time before it bites you.

Thanks for getting back to me. Just had a look at that script in the link and it will only let me dump from sysnand to emunand as far as i can tell.

I currently don't have any mods on my sysnand so ps4 controllers won't link to it and I am trying to leave it that way.

I have no idea about ftpsrv.

Take it there isn't a file tucked away in emunand that i can just simply drag out of it and dump on my other SD cards that you know of by the looks of things?

what the script does is copy "bis:/save/8000000000000050" and as you can see the file has lot's of other items inside

I think ftpsrv let you access bis, I have not mess with bis and the author has warning about messing with bis

Dam yeah I definitely won't be going down that road then.
I did try searhing for said file but couldn't see it when searching through windows. Was just gunna try taking it from one card and placing it on another.
I'm guessing that said file is on the switch itself and nowhere in my emunand folder.

It is in the emunand, you need software that can mount bis and I already told you ftpsrv can. The whole emunand is one file on your sd card.

Sorry my bad, I didn't fully get what you was saying at the time. Thanks for your help again. I'll have a play with this ftpsrv tomorrow to at least have a look.

Thanks for your help but I seem to have no idea as to what ftpsrv is, if windows will run it (as I seem to be mostly seeing it come up as linux in my search or seeing stuff about setting up an ftp server which I'm not sure if that's what I need to do) or what I need to download and from where or how to get it running to use it.

Also my Emunand is broken up into multiple files in the eMMC folder from SD card root - emuMMC/SD00/eMMC and is not just 1 file.

So the answer to my original question is that there is no quick easy way to access just the Bluetooth controller settings in Emunand from Windows and to be able to drag and drop said file from one SD card to another.

But from my current understanding if I knew how to set up and use Ftpsrv I could likly copy the bit of code needed in the emunand from one SD card and replace the code in the emunand on another SD card with that, albeit at my own risk to get controllers synced between multiple cards.
