Hacking RELEASE SwitchBlade Another Instant CFW Payload

[subcon959]

Would it be possible to get rid of the white flash on boot? It looks fine if the splash.bin has a white background, but pretty awful with anything else.

Updated the original post with version 1.0.3. You can now create a `splashes` directory in the root of your SD card and place multiple splash screens in there to have the splash screens randomly show up. (Just make to delete `splash.bin` from the root of your SD card.)

Great, you got it done before me. I was stuck at how to traverse the file system. I'm such a hekate hacking noob. LOL

On the plus side, your code now helps to educate me further. Thanks for the sauce!

Just tested it on my 5.0.2 Switch just to be sure and everything worked. The only thing I can think of is possibly the wrong payload. Or the "splashes" folder in the root of your SD Card is misspelled? Are you using Fat32 or ExFat? I do have an update to fix a few unrelated bugs. (Will skip over directories if you have any directories in the "splashes" folder. If you don't have a "splash.bin" file in the root and you have the "splashes" folder with nothing in there it would crash trying to access a null pointer.)

Version 1.0.4 is now live on GitHub: https://github.com/Shmadul/hekate-ipl-50x/releases/tag/v1.0.4

Change Log

• Will now skip over directories if you have any directories in the "splashes" folder for some reason?
• If you don't have a "splash.bin" file in the root and you have the "splashes" folder with nothing in there the payload would crash trying to access a null pointer.

Thanks, testing in few hours....

So one question : if i have a splash.bin file in the root of my sd and inside splashes folder again, which will be launched ?

It will display the splash.bin in the root. If you want to have multiple splash screens then delete the splash.bin in the root of the SD Card.

There is one payload for splash.bin on root so, why don't push your payload to ignore the splash.bin on root and launch these in splashes folder ?

Does this not work for 128GB flash cards? I'm not having horizon load using this payload.

How do you have it formatted fat32 or exfat?

Full exfat formatted on SanDisk 128gb. Don't use quick format
