About a month ago, user @Reisyukaku, the creator of ReiNand on the 3DS, teased that they were in the process of making their new custom firmware. What we initially saw was just a custom splash screen. Now, they've publicly released the highly awaited ReiNX CFW for the Nintendo Switch.

Rei states that this is a simple, modular CFW, and that everything works together independently. They'll also be working on a custom sysmodule for ReiNX, as well. You can check it out and compile it yourself at the GitHub link below.

The modular switch custom firmware

Usage:

Put ReiNX folder on the root of your switch's SD card and run ReiNX.bin with your favorite fusee launcher.

Compiling:

You'll need devkitpro with devkitA64 and run make

Features:

• Loads all KIPs from /ReiNX/sysmodules/ directory
  
  
• Optional custom kernel/secmon/warmboot
  
  
• Default kips with exefs redir from /ReiNX/title/{tid}

It's still a Wip dude not a release, chill out and be patient , same goes for every "Pirate" out there.cause i can't see why wouldn't anyone be angry about this if it wasn't for the sig patches and the backups , also, he clearly stated multiple times that he's still working on sig patches and they've been a pain in the ass for him..

Mostly, what I wanted to say is that it's not better than our current setup with hekate and it was badly teased.

WaifuFW.
Now with extra weeb.

Good for the Switch scene I guess?

Yeah, I'm surprised there's any kind of progress, what with the virulent/toxic goings on.

Nintendo scene is always gone gigantic drama.
Add in the 13 year old mentality of memes and other shitposting behaviour and you're pretty accurate on describing it all.

5 more hours until sigpatches

 

[Darth Meteos]

I hope it will be possible to change the boot pic, fuck these weebs, man

Here's a splash screen just for you

5 more hours until sigpatches

it might be less if we can just make them work one goddamn time

PROOF lol?

 

[|<roni&g]

Silly question but can this load "backups"?

 

[BlastedGuy9905]

its a joke

Not like SX OS, but it can, through LayeredFS.

(If I'm correct.)

I was going to buy SX OS. Now I'm unsure of how fast this will be "updated" to have a backup loader. It seems to be at the exact stage as Atmosphère right now aka useless to anyone who wants to be a pirate. I'm glad to see something has been released but as like anyone else kinda disappointed it's not included yet.

 

[tomGER]

By eShop support you mean .nsp, because rei is working on it.

we can already do that with hekate and a patched FS (Alias Signature Patches) what is already documented and easily patchable - I honestly don't get the current spread of misinformations on this forum

 

[digipimp75]

Backup loader or gtfo

 

[tech3475]

Backup loader or gtfo

The door is that way.

Seriously, the only reason I'd consider SX OS Pro at this point is the dongle/jig kit, not backups/warez.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I've put up a compiled build of ReiNX and a hekate configured (based on latest sd files 5.2.1) version on xbins. Tested it earlier, works as advertised.

Edit - Should have known better! Lots of new people and xbins may not be well known to those in the nintendo scene. Its a FTP service that you must login onto irc in order to get a user/pass, or you can automate it using auto-xbins found here -

You can find ReiNX in /SWITCH/Payloads - CFW/ReiNX

haha love your new sig xD

 

[gnmmarechal]

Pretty sure sigpatches work now. Here's what I compiled a few hours ago.

https://www19.zippyshare.com/v/xq0NNPAp/file.html

It's untested.


EDIT: I'm told it doesn't come with sigpatches, here's the one that does

Are you saying what I think you're saying... No reason to buy SX OS now? It runs backups?

Does that mean installing .nsp files and running them is possible now?
