Hacking TX Presents SX OS v2.9.1 BETA - With Improved v9.0 Firmware Support!

[garyopa]

Improved SX OS support for v9.0.0 firmware is now here!

Yes, there is still XCI compatibility issues, we're looking into, but this should solve *a lot* of issues for people who could not play any games on 9.x. We're investigating those... People who repacked games to include updates, those are the only ones that still have issues on 9.x. Your help on our TX Discord in pinpointing out which ones were having the *most* issues, was greatly thankful, and we look forward to having more valuable feedback from our SX OS users on what needs to be improved on for our next SX OS release.

What's New?

• Fixed Issues With ChoDuJourNX
• XCI Compatibility Improved

We know you are waiting for some other big features in SX OS, they are coming… But we needed to get this compatibility bug fix out for v9.0.0 first though.

People are reporting that they now are able to mount their custom XCIs. Waiting to see what may still be failing to load.

 

[chrisisx]

Can someone confirm if this fix the custom XCI as most of my games is on this format hence i do not want to upgrade yet.

 

[comput3rus3r]

or just stay on 8.1 and have everything work. Still see no reason to be on ofw 9.

 

[JonJaded]

I think the first 9.0 game will be either Luigi's Mansion or Pokemon. If you can help it, don't update instantly.

Slow clap for gary.

Quoting the OP

"there is still XCI compatibility issues...

People who repacked games to include update...

... those are the only ones that still have issues on 9.x."

I myself won't update for now, cause most of my backups in xci have updates included.

 

[dekuleon]

Does it fix those Switchs that are not booting after 2.9 + Choi fiasco?
I know there are other methods to fix, but just for curiosity.

Reminder to back up your EmuNAND guys.
Alright I'm going in.

Edit : Sysnand (9.0) and EmuNAND (8.1.0), no custom themes. I did the update to 9.0 with ChoiNX 1.0.2 and boot 2.9.1.
All XCIs (normal, nsp converted and custom with dlc/updates) are working.

Seems like they fixed it.

 

[oji]

Custom xci-s works again.

Emunand 9.0

TX 2.9.1

So far all my custom xci files are mounting

Xci files with updates and dlc integrated are working again

Atmosphere apparently works, if that helps

 

[JonJaded]

Anyone willing to test if this works with fw 9.0.1?

I don't have the guts.

• Fixed Issues With ChoDuJourNX

Would also be nice if someone could confirm if they are now able to update to 9.0.0 (and other firmware) on SX OS 2.9.1 using ChoiDuJourNX version 1.0.1 without causing black screen. Make sure you have a backup.
