TX Releases Another Update To Their SX OS, with lots of nice improvements in v1.4

We have not heard from TX for a while, but don't worry, they back with nice new update to their SX OS, check out v1.4 below:

SX OS v1.4 Announcement​

Good day, loyal users!

While we chip away at many different features for SX OS and additions to our SX hardware family we took a break to prepare an update for SX OS with some exciting new functionality and outstanding bug fixes.

Let's have a look at what's new and fixed in this release:

• Integrated NSP installer
  With our last update we introduced the possibility of installing eShop NSP titles. However, this relied on using external tools and wasn't very user friendly. In this release we bring our own integrated NSP installer as part of our menu system. This is the neatest and easiest way of installing NSP titles, enjoy!
• Integrated homebrew launcher
  Launching homebrew used to be done by launching NX HBMenu by holding R when entering the album. While we kept this possibility (mostly for developers), you can now also launch your favorite homebrew directly from our own menu!
• IR / motion plus issue fixed
  A few games (like 1-2-Switch and Resident Evil) were suffering from freezes when enabling the joycon IR camera or motion controls.
• Allow unsigned NCA
  People asked us if we could get rid of the NCA integrity checks, so we did! Custom NCA files, modified NCA files and repackaged NCA files should all work fine now.
• Display SX OS version in menu
  To better distinguish the different versions of SX OS we introduced a small version number display in our menu.
• LayeredFS fixes for 4.1.0
  There were certain issues with 'LayeredFS' for people on firmware 4.1.0. If you use 'LayeredFS' on that specific firmware there's good news for you: these issues have been identified and fixed!

And that's that for this release. We have quite the backlog of feature requests and todo's on our plate, but trust we'll get there!

I tried installing Splatoon 2 update and dlc but when I load the .xci, Horizon menu shows two game icons.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Update for the same version of the game?

It's because the update and/or dlc is from a different region as the one on the Splatoon 2 XCI. Get the matching region of the update/dlc.

AKA leecher friendly

Dunno what to tell you man.
If ease of access = leecher, then yeah pretty much

 

[TunaKetchup]

Whats the point of launching the homebrew menu from the SX OS menu

Seems like a pointless feature tbh

NSP installer would be cool if I didn't already have dev menu

All in all I think this update is kinda crap

 

[Andalitez]

O

It's because the update and/or dlc is from a different region as the one on the Splatoon 2 XCI. Get the right version of the update/dlc.

OR the xci that matches the update/dlc lol

Or waste all this time you spent waiting

Already know that method but no way I'm going to do all of that.
Coldboot feature is nice but in fact not indespensable.

Sorry 2.3 Switch I'm going to update you with a tear in my eye

So the installer works just like devmenu....

Welp at least you can do it for free with devmenu

For people who don't know how to install hbmenu.nro or people who want to save that little bit of storage. Basically for noobs & storage savers.

Thanks!

Please TX, a way to put XCI in a folder, NSP in a folder. NOT IN FUCKING ROOT.

 

[morrison22]

O

OR the xci that matches the update/dlc lol

True, either way, but chances are the xci is larger and the update/dlc is smaller so it's faster to obtain.

 

[UnrulyMess]

focus on more important things like Nintendo Labo 2?

I mean...

 

[Andalitez]

True, either way, but chances are the xci is larger and the update/dlc is smaller so it's faster to obtain.

He can dump his own *wink* *wink*

SX OS 1.5: I predict they'll pirate cardboard and the hacking scene will go crazy over it.

 

[morrison22]

We need a stable ftp program for the switch. This way we can ftp NSP files to the SD Card so SX OS can utilize them with their new installer. #no_rebooting_ftw

Edit:

Geez bro,let us catch our breath from 1.4 first.
Although cardboard sounds excellent

But you still need the Homebrew.nro file for it to work

Emunand and Coldboot is my dream
But still cool and best from Team Xecuter

Yeah just put all of your .NSPs in a folder that the installer would detect...oh wait...
