Uhhhh no no no. No exfat sir. NTFS to avoid corruption
Up to you guys really. I use exfat on both my micro sd (512GB) and my external hdd (1TB). Works great when using my Mac for copying over. No errors yet. Been running this config for months on the micro sd. Nearly a year with the external HDD as exfat in SXOS. Works great for me.

same as me, I use Exfat not a problem, maybe there is an increase risk of corruption if you use HomeBrew. but I don't like having games split in parts.

tinfoil let's you install XCIs over USB so you don't even have to worry about that. I was an SX user (still got the license) but I switched to AMS

Why are people so toxic when it comes to CFW. Reminds me of the PS3 scene all of again.
Idk? I hope you're not implying I am? LMAO I was just stating what I had heard and witnessed with the issues. Never said "NO YOU NO BUY SXOS!" or anything like that.
Im not ignoring the OP if thats what it seems like. Everyone has the right to like whatever CFW they want. But just swearing and insulting people constantly just is annoying and childish imo. Im on here to learn about the scene, see whats new and improving, and to have a good time. Not to have someone scream in my face about how much they hate whatever tf they are having a hemorrhage over... Like what you want and use what you want.

At the end of the day you dont have to listen to anyones opinions or advice. You can literally say "No, Im gonna go with this because I want too"

Seems like you are the fanboy around here. Why do you get so defensive? Do you have to justify your purchase...? I got SX OS too, but I know it's not worth it anymore. I also bought a Gateway back then.
there have been times that SX has updated faster
Because they used unreleased code from Atmosphère that was uploaded to GitHub.
Drop the fucking bias
How ironic!

Works great for me
I use Exfat not a problem
Stop recommending exFAT, it's CONFIRMED that Nintendo's driver is shit and causes data loss. The same happens while using FAT32, but it has a backup table so it doesn't matter. Why is everyone in the Switch scene so stubborn? This is not a personal attack on everyone who uses exFAT so stop defending it when you KNOW it's bad. You can also read it here from CTCaer himself: https://github.com/switchbrew/libnx/issues/161#issuecomment-421650799 and https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/7480#issuecomment-434262799 Seriously, it's tiresome arguing about facts a thousand times.

Its still worth it for things Atmosphere doesnt supports or never will, no matter what you say....

Nothing against Atmosphere stuff but not implementing .xci support for piracy reasons is just lame excuses...... you see, scene dumps in both .xci and .nsp formats (unlike 3DS where it mostly was about .3ds format). Both .xci and .nsp is easy to pirate, you dont stop producing knives because there are murders out there... these are the tools and its your thing what you do with the provided tools (and face the consequences)

Not implementing .xci/.3ds support because its violates Nintendo TOS, copyright infringementi etc. is another valuable reason.....

Ehh, it looks good, but not *that* good. It's about on par with RCMLoader, the one thing it has going for it is size.

I would not bother with XCIs. You know sooner or later SX OS is going to be abandoned just like what happened with Gateway 3DS and using XCIs just means it will be more work to switch later. For that reason I would also not pay for SX OS at this point. I bought it because it was the only solution for emuNAND at the time but now it makes very little sense, I've since switched :switch: to Atmosphere and never looked back. Installing nsps over USB doesn't take much longer than copying over a XCI anyway - and doesn't require you to turn off your Switch or boot into Hekate so that you can remove the MicroSD. Sure you could transfer the XCI over FTP or USB but that would be as slow or slower than just installing a NSP over USB.
Also another thing is that Atmosphere is way more stable than SX OS. For one a buggy homebrew won't crash your entire system, you'll be able to close out of it with nothing bad happening.
Another un educated twat.

Gateway exploit, nintendo patched and it continued to try bring support until it became too complicated for end users.

The switch exploit will and always will work on pre patched consoles, exactly same reason why no cunt has released any exploit so far for models thats patched.

Xecuter will always work, xecuter are the ones that made the first exploit that free cfw users use.

Sx os has had bugs but again its because they give you everything, atmos you have to wait for each developer to update and add support.

Sx os adds far more features without relying on anyone else.

The rest of your dribble is full of shit, in SX OS you dont even need to remove your sd, you can transfer anything with its built in ftp, install if needed and delete.

So what cum are you dribbling lad.

I use both sx os and atmos and sx os wins hands down

People who claim piracy is a joke, atmos bypasses all security to run and install pirated software.

There is no actual legit reason for any cfw, dickheads use we dont pirate shit as a bullshit lie.

There is no need for cfwif your a "legit" user.

But we all know these cunts pirate, they just hate sx os because they have to pay in order to not pay for games.

Usb loading is a big deal for me. It lets me just load a usb drive and play. Also i always make sure to build custom xci with update and dlc so that whole xci lacks update is bogus. The only minor downside is if the custom xci balloons pass 32gb. That I cannot get to work so far. If sxos fixed that it would be amazing. Also lastly it isnt an either or thing people. I use my sxos dongle to load atmosphere all the time. I never got this personally. A pc less dongle that i can load everything with? It’s awesome frankly.

i seem to have run with a problem with xci files larger than 4gb.. dunno wut to do.. guess ill be googling all day xD

your sd card is fat32 you just need to split the file into 4GB parts which u can do already made ones here
https://github.com/choss/java-xci-splitter/releases

or when making them with nsc builder go to configuration>global settings>file system configuration and select one "FAT32 to split for sxos"

which is why i have two separate copy of nsc bulder folders one for full custom xci and one to make split versions

EDIT. don't pay attention to ppl that against sxos and give u nothing reasons why they just don't like the people behind TX (cc) get it if u want it and only ask for support on tx forum

Wow, I guess Deja Vu doesn't work on patched units running firmware 4.1.
Xecuter will always work, xecuter are the ones that made the first exploit that free cfw users use.
Also false? SX OS came out on June 15th with no write-up on how to execute said exploit which was released early on April 24th 2018 thanks to ktempkin and fail0verflow aptly named Fusee Gelee, shofel2, or CVE-2018-6242. The exploit was even teased as far back as January 7th 2018 by fail0verflow. You seem quick to call other people "uneducated twats" when you yourself seem uneducated. Also relying on insults is a sign you have no actual counterarguments :)

but you fail to mention that TX posted this video on youtube on the 14th May 2018, I find it hard to believe TX was able to produce SX OS in a few weeks after 24th of April when the exploit was released.




Also on the 2nd of January 2018 TX mentioned on their website they were working on CFW for the switch,5 days before you state fail0verflow. teased the exploit
a video below showing a TX splash screen from 2 Jan 2018

I never stated that TX stole the exploit from the community. Given how closely both fail0verflow and TX teased the exploit, its probable that both parties discovered the exploit simultaneously. My point of contention was Retroboy stating that we stole the coldboot exploit from TX which is far from the truth.

So, installing Atmosphere is not risking losing money? The end result is the same, your $200-300 worth hardware becomes a "brick" if they ban you (even if you never pirate or attend to pirate games).

The main point remains...... for Nintendo, they dont give a crap if you just homebrew non-commercial stuff, pirate, run cfw, exploit their system in any way etc. To them we are all pirates, hackers or whatever........ heck, for them the whole github repository is a bunch of crackers/hackers/"stealers" (how they like to describe it). Atmos without .xci support, with or without sigpatches or not, it just doesnt matter...... for them, you are in no way different to SX OS users.

Not that I understand them..... its actually hilarious, they are banning people with only Atmosphere installed (those who dont pirate/cheat) and on top of it, hell even pirates buy games sometimes but I guess, they dont want our mone (and at the same time, whining for money all the time).

BTW Im remembering the same excuses with the 3DS scene back in the day..... Gateway was actually first, others were trying to reverse engineer it.
