Seems like ive got another problem :(
I'm unable to launch tinfoil at all. I found solutions online which apparently worked for those who had the same problem as i have, but they dont work for me.
I get that "unable to launch software" error.

But maybe i'm looking at the wrong place, because i think i saw somewhere that tinfoil was like the freeshop for 3ds. Is that right? If not, can you guys point me to the homebrew name?

Thanks again :)

You updated your signature patches?

Delete the Tinfoil on the start screen and download the latest from the tinfoil site. It's basically out of date.

Also if you haven't reinstall signature patches.

You can use HATS if you want since it is a pack, I use that. As @linuxares said you want to make you are using the latest tinfoil version along with latest patches which is also included in that pack.
Done that too
I dont know why, but even if i delete everything, from the console side, from the sd side, when i come to reinstall it, i get the error again and sent back to the switch main menu to see the tinfoil icon reappear, like i never uninstalled it :(

Ah, you must DELETE the tinfoil folder on the SD Card even then. Then download the new one. I had that issue before.
Also delete it from the homescreen

You delete the home menu one, and delete the one in the switch folder, then replace the file, and launch it so it create new forwarder in the home screen.

But can you guys at least confirmed me one thing?
Is tinfoil the concept as the freeshop was for 3ds?

It is what people use when they want to download games from a shop like turtle in the shop (tits pro), but tits pro require a pro license, not a lot of content on free non pro license shops out there. Pro shops nowadays want missing dump to gain access to the shop, few months ago at least you were still able to gain access by donating eshop card to them.

  • 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!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
