it said initialized successfully! Uploading payload, but nothing happened, my screen stayed black

i read elsewhere that it might have something to do with the usb port so i tried my laptop but i needed to pull out the crap paper clip jig i was using to install firmware on my laptop aswell or w/e and now i cant get the damned jig back in.

does this mean my switch is not patched? i was really just doing this to see if i could easily mod my switch, and if im able to mod it whats the best way to go about it? should i buy like the usb dongle thing i saw that does it easily and quickly?

thanx in advance

It seems like its patched if you see nothing after sending a payload. Anyway, firstly try getting into hekate and only then start thinking what dongle to buy and what cfw to use etc... No reason to think about that if you are not even sure if your switch is patched or not.

thanx and sorry im a bit confused, i thought the first step was to send a payload and see if my switch was patched or not.

i checked the serial number site and my switch is "maybe" patched, and i read on a different thread that other people have ran into this problem where the rocket doesnt show up and they tried a bunch of different things and were able to fix it, is their other ways to tell if its patched? i dont wanna spend money and wait days just to find out the dongle is useless cuss i cant mod my switch

also if its patched and on newest firmware is their anything i can do to mod it?

No other certain ways of telling if its patched or not other than sending a payload. If you are in RCM and after sending a payload nothing happens, its most likely patched if you don have any problems related to software or win/mac drivers etc.

If its patched and on FW>4.1, you can't mod it. Have to stick to OFW only.

And yeah, i think you misunderstood me somehow.. By saying "firstly try getting into hekate" i literally meant "try pushing a hekate payload to check if your switch is capable of pushing payloads" (that is the first step).

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
