Hacking Suggestion To the people who build homebrew NSPs

[NoNAND]

Please guys build proper hb nsps with the exefs romfs and not just annoying forwarders that look for a file on the sd card

If you want it, build it
I don't really care that it just forwarders to SD card. It is easy to update it.
Also, there are some NSPs, which are whole apps, not just forwarders (tinfoil for example).

Thats what i think is best. NSPs should be full apps not just forwarders because you are adding an extra thing on the system which is useless in case of forwarders
Btw do you have any link to the latest tinfoil nsp if its legal to post here

Personally I prefer forwarders because I just update the app on the sd card and done. Full app NSP/CIA/WUP/WAD files often seem to lack the update from itself feature. Meaning there are more steps every time you want to update something.

There's 2 side to this:

Having a Full App installed, will require always to be updated via tinfoil, which mean we will have to always convert a new nsp.

Forwarders are just pointers to a file on the sd, meaning the file will be replaceable on the sdcard, as long as the name convention stays the same.

Fime fine...i just wanted homebrews to be like 3ds which you install the app and unlike the boring wii apps which always have forwarders..

Do forwarders still give the extra ram?

Do forwarders still give the extra ram?

I don't see why it wouldn't considering the environment is that of a game still instead of the album, but I'm kinda wondering this myself.

Uh oh. Don't try to ask for things in the internet. Usually you get hit with that "do it yourself" card.

They do.

Considering he's literally asking people to devote time to do something really unnecessary every time a homebrew gets updated, the "do it yourself" is warranted.
