Hacking Tinfoil USB install zero values error

[alexbrarjohn]

Hi everyone,


(6.0.0 ReiNX)


I have been having issues with the tinfoil usb install tool


Everything works fine, i am able to connect to my switch, get the list of NSPs, and choose where to install them


The problem occurs afterwords i get to the screen displaying install percentage and all values are zero


Included is a screenshot of the result i get from the terminal (macOS)


Thanks for any help

Are you typing "usb_install_pc.py nsp" only? If you try to add the .nsp name or any of that it will fail you only need the folder name that contains the nsps.

no I know to do the folder, this is what I am exactly putting in:

python3 /Users/alexjohnston/Desktop/usb_install_pc.py /Users/alexjohnston/Desktop/nsp

That's not right.

Do this exactly as I say

make a folder named nsp and put you nsps inside of it, move it to your desktop

move usb_install_pc.py to your desktop

type nothing more or nothing less than than this

cd desktop [enter]
usb_install_pc.py nsp [enter]

If that doesn't work try

python usb_install_pc.py nsp [enter]

if that doesn't work try

python3 usb_install_pc.py nsp [enter]

It shouldn't contain /users/alexjohnson or any of that.

I tried this here were the results, (i put spaces in between) nothing happen on my switch for any but the last one

Still trapped on zero

Thanks for all your help

I was assuming you did PIP install libusb [enter] and PIP install pyusb [enter] did you install those two and install libusbk through zadig?

If you did all of those, it could be an issue with Python. You might have to uninstall it and reinstall it and click "add python to path" on the bottom of the install screen.

By default it's unchecked.

Unfortunately if none of that works, I'm out of ideas.

doing that did not seem to work though,
as its macOS zadig is not necessary,
I will try and find a windows machine and try it on that

Thanks for all of your help!

macOS version is working. I am using it and Zadig is not needed.. macOS version is different and works just fine for me using terminal windows.
