Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[binkinator]

i tried it with a replacement same.....did that with the multimeter too (my uncle did it for me he says it appears to be ok)...i look myself into that later

Having the same symptom with different sd readers is not good news. Unfortunately it may very well be on the MoBo side of things in which case taking it to a electronics/cellphone repair shop for closer inspection is your best bet.

 

[Nokocchi52]

Correct…yours is more up to date.

the idea is to add kip1patch=nosigcheck right under your kip1=atmosphere/kips/* lines in order to bypass sigchecks.

edit: you only want to do this for files you dump yourself. This is bad practice for files you find elsewhere.

"Failed to install "nosigcheck""

"Failed to install "nosigcheck""

Damn. remove the lines then…you don’t want to forget that in there.

back to what @Gep_Etto said, did you find the sigcheck bypass in your installer?

unchecking the "Verify NCA signatures before installation" is one of the first things I did.

I've used atmosphere for a while, mostly for Smash mods. Today I wanted to use cheat codes for Legends Arceus, and the guide I used involved changing my system_settings.ini and putting it the config folder inside of atmosphere. Now I am getting fatal errors when I try to boot atmosphere, and I feel like I haven't properly implemented the system settings but I'm not sure how to fix it

Post your system_settings.ini file pls.

Its just the ini file that was in my config_templates folder but I deleted the semicolon before "dmnt_cheats_enabled_by_default = u8!0x1". After I got the first fatal error I also deleted the space that was in front of the line too but that did not work.

yup. the ; counts as a comment and it ignores the rest of the line. Beginning spaces should be fine. I double checked your file and these are the ONLY lines that are in play (uncommented)

Here they are in context with their instructions:

; Controls whether dmnt cheats should be toggled on or off by
; default. 1 = toggled on by default, 0 = toggled off by default.
dmnt_cheats_enabled_by_default = u8!0x1
; Controls whether dmnt should always save cheat toggle state
; for restoration on new game launch. 1 = always save toggles,
; 0 = only save toggles if toggle file exists.
dmnt_always_save_cheat_toggles = u8!0x0

The first one being set to 1 (u8!0x1) is turning on cheats at all times. Might not be what you want globally but let’s move on for now.

The second one sets up toggle files if turned on (u8!0x1) but yiu have it set to only update toggle files if they already exist. Again, just explaining what the lines do…let’s move on.

First things first:

Let’s make sure it’s nothing else it broken and simply comment (add ; at the beginning) to the two lines and make sure we can boot normally with none of that in play.

 

[Firefox64]

this is the message I get on my Switch:

A fatal error occured when running Atmosphere.
Program ID: 010041544d530000
Error Desc: std::abort() called (0xffe)

Report saved to /atmosphere/fatal_errors/report_0000000006895ad3.bin

I will add the semi colons back and see if I still get the error

was I supposed to download the stuff in the first post? Now my physical card cannot be read

Yes, there is a zip file with Sigpatches on the first post.

Sigpatches won’t cause your SD card to be unreadable. Perhaps the SD card is going bad?

not the sd card, the game card. The Legends Arceus I want to play digitally on my hacked switch so I can trade with my second switch

I just confirmed those are the exact same Sigpatches I’m using. To be sure we can try the iTotalJustice sig patches but nothing we’ve done thus far would have done anything regarding the Game Card.

 

[Firefox64]

So after I added the ; back, I am no longer getting an error code, and atmosphere seems to work as it did before, just tested out my smash mods and they work fine

I also just updated hekate and atmostphere and updated to to the newest compatible firmware. I remember last time I had to change something in one of the text files to read carts again, what was it I needed to do that with?

Sweet! Let’s add the lines back one at a time and see which one is causing us problems.

That’s a key bit of information my friend. Was wracking my brain for how that could possibly happen. I’m guessing you were on a pre-1.0.0 release of Atmosphere?

It’s likely the following release note regarding nogc game card settings:

• Please Note: BCT.ini no longer exists, nogc configuration has been moved to /atmosphere/config/stratosphere.ini.
  • If you rely on custom nogc configuration, please be sure to update accordingly.

I went through that the time before this time I updated, but I did end up replacing a bunch of files. What do I need to do to change the nogc configuration for this version?

my config folder is empty for some reason
