Weird issue. On 9.0 OFW, latest Atmosphere 0.9.4 I think.

Initially after I updated all was working fine but I must have done something as now in homebrew like HB AppStore 2.1 and even latest version of sys-clk editor the joycon inputs don’t respond. Only Home button works to exit. I know Ninty disables homebrew inputs but Atmos also patches this and it did work briefly. Some homebrew like Tinfoil, Goldleaf etc work fine but others inputs don’t work at all.

Anyone know the exact file or patch from Atmos I need to re-enable inputs?


Thanks

Im having the same issue. Really want to use GoldLeaf too. Using Tinfoil until this is resolved.

What did you do between it working and it not working? Did you install/update blawar's tinfoil? Because that fucks up your installation.

I think so yea, the only change I did after it was working was add sig patches and Tinfoil, so must be one of those...

Tried again, installed vanilla Atmosphere. HB Store 2.0 inputs didn’t work (which I guess they should due to temp patch in Atmos for this issue). Updated to HB Store 2.1, inputs worked, downloaded sys-clk editor and inputs worked. Shut down and copied over tinfoil, inputs no longer work in HB Store or sys-clk editor but Tinfoil works fine.

This is a known and addressed issue, homebrew needs to be updated but as for atmo, use the latest release it has their hid mitm included

As mentioned I am using the latest release of Atmosphere. I don’t think I could even boot into CFW on 9.0 without the version that contains the hid fix as that was included in the first version that supported 9. Although as inputs weren’t working on HB Store 2.0 before I added anything else I can only assume the hid patch doesn’t work on all homebrew.

It's just that homebrews must be recompiled using latest libnx in order to have supported inputs on FW 9.0.0. Most hombrews have not been updated yet. If the homebrew source code is available, you can recompile it yourself.

This. The 9.0 fix in Atmosphere still requires homebrew to be compiled with the latest libraries for input to work.
Don't use blawar/vertigo's Tinfoil :)
There's a modded version, though it's still closed source. At the moment I'm boycotting Tinfoil outright and everyone else should too IMO. That's the only way blawar is going to change his ways. Either that or he will just have to live with no one using his homebrew anymore.

This is factually incorrect. The whole point of the mitm is to make old homebrew work without needing changes, so that devs can have extra time to update their homebrew to have proper 9.0.0 support.

I am not sure but I think that libnx is "statically linked" to each homebrew. It means that it is directly included inside final homebrew executable. If you want to make this code evolve, you need to recompile everything which use previous versions.

"to fix compatibility with old homebrew."

Enable line on file "system_settings.ini" in foldes "atmosphere/config_templates"
Remove ";" in file option to active:
"enable_deprecated_hid_mitm = u8!0x1"
"0 = Do not enable, 1 = Enable."


Example:
[eupld]
upload_enabled = u8!0x0

[ro]
ease_nro_restriction = u8!0x0

[atmosphere]
fatal_auto_reboot_interval = u64!0x0
power_menu_reboot_function = str!payload
dmnt_cheats_enabled_by_default = u8!0x1
dmnt_always_save_cheat_toggles = u8!0x0
enable_hbl_bis_write = u8!0x0
enable_hbl_cal_read = u8!0x0
fsmitm_redirect_saves_to_sd = u8!0x0
enable_deprecated_hid_mitm = u8!0x1

Copy file to "atmosphere/config"
Profit

Any updates on this? I will start searching for updated homebrew versions but any chance a tweak to the "system_settings.ini" could fix this?

    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
