Also don't forget...he is is UK....unlike geohot....a totally different set of rules when it comes to RE.

However I do agree with xiaNaix...he won't release the cracked TX-OS in its entirety. That is against his peraonal believes. I do somehow think it will be a tool or some sort to decrypt original TXOS. How you want to use it...is entirely up to the end user.

I'm not sure if the rules are completely different on our side.


The source is that he clearly stated he is anti piracy, and that cast a big doubt about releasing it. But most of the devs who claimed that like too much the glory to not release it, generally through 3rd party. They are too addicted to e-fame to control their ego, so i am pretty sure that if he does crack it, it will be fully leaked.

It's honestly the best when members here slander devs here who have made huge contributions to the scene. (SciresM I know for a fact doesn't care about fame ever since his days on ProjectPokemon)

You've just described him releasing his crack in entirety, which you said he wouldn't do.

The source is that he clearly stated he is anti piracy,

He has also clearly stated he is anti TX. If he doesn't release it then TX get rich on piracy.

They've already made bank though so releasing it would only enable it even more to the masses.

And they'll continue to make more money until a free solution happens, which will happen if SX OS is cracked or not.

Not releasing it purely makes TX more money from those who can't wait.

No...I said he will not release a cracked version of the TXOS directly.

In which case I don't think you're agreeing with xiaNaix.

Nobody is suggesting he is going to stand on a street corner handing out copies.

I still see it enabling piracy more than hurting TX which has already made a huge amount of profit from SX.

Then why are you making this statement in your post? Btw...the sky is sometimes blue as well...wtf.
I would say that he will be responsible nonetheless and kinda a hypocrite, in my case i will make sure on my extent that everyone knows who did it, his name will be related to Easy and efficient piracy because that is what he opened for everyone on the switch early years

I believe we are talking about hexkyz, and not naehrwert.

Kamesenin's life mission is to make sure the right people get credit for Sx-crack OS. Looking at you Naehrwert and Hexkyz.

Indeed both are responsible, Naehrwert is a hypocrite because he was merely related to piracy and he removed his support for hekate, and hekxys is an anti piracy dev and he is doing what? delivering piracy, right now TX OS is contained in the paid users, if you free it to everyone, well piracy levels will multiply a lot because of the ease of use, so we need to credit them!!!! they are the ones that did it!!!!

Game piracy levels won't change very much. People who want to do it for free already can, it's just more of an hassle, currently. Whoever wants to pirate, can.
"naehrwert is a hypocrite because he was merely related to piracy": I don't think I would find it easy to find work in software security or software development if my name was linked with piracy. This is not a light matter, and this is a decision you should learn to respect and understand.
About hexkyz, I don't think there's even been a confirmation of him delivering the crack. But time will tell; however, I do not understand his point of view either.

Yes its okay that they dont want to be related to piracy, but what are they doing? opening a efficient piracy backup loader to the masses, and dude the free layered is not easy to use and gets you banned easily, with sx os you put the payload run it, put the games in your sd cards and you are done, it will be a lot more attractive to people, but what I really hate is that they are anti piracy and they are openly being hypocrites trying to crack a piracy tool

New user here. Just came to share the thoughts of a 'casual gamer'. I heard about this SX thing, figured someone would just crack it and release it for free (that's what I'm sure will happen soon). So good luck to those guys, I have no intention of purchasing software which allows piracy usage, only a fool would.

He should have learned from Neo (from the matrix) use your regular name for day job and hacker name for fun stuff.

I've seen tools making LayeredFS usage for piracy quite easier. It definitely isn't perfect, nor clean, but that doesn't prevent piracy. Pirates should expect to be banned, however.
As far as I'm aware, LayeredFS is still the only one to support eShop games currently. I can understand the appeal of easiness, but a cracked version of SX OS won't open the floodgates. It still receives updates, too, and they will likely harden their security over time. By that time, free alternatives will likely be available already.
Hacking TX OS seems mostly to be for the challenge, here. naehrwert did not say anything about releasing a crack or a hacked version, however, only hexkyz did. I don't think naehrwert can be blamed for attempting a challenge.

That is quite a bad advice. smealum used his real name for hacking, and that deserved him a job in offensive security at Microsoft. People shouldn't have to hide themselves because others abuse of their tools for piracy.

Dude he was an all out for the cracking this shit!!! he even shared the tools for decrypting to crack it, he is responsible, the good thing is when it happens and I give the credit, a lot of people will be defending the dude, so the thread will be alive, because he is related directly, with hekate he was related indirectly, but with this is a direct approach

Releasing tools for binary analysis and sharing a crack are two totally different things, and do not necessarily have to be linked together. Making a crack is at least half of the work, to quote @xiaNaix.

He will be related sorry man that you want to defend him, he is directly responsible he actively trying to crack it in public so it seems you respect the guy, I dont because he is a hypocrite, because without his active work in decrypting and cracking this wouldnt be possible, to crack a piracy tool for everyone because of being petty, people will know with screenshots of their work, their relationship with piracy and how it was efficiently free for everyone, they are suiciding their name by doing this
