Wow. I can’t figure this out. I’m currently on FW16 atmo1.5.0.

What happens is, BoTW loads, but I get an error when loading the save. I’ve tried the other auto saves too. None load, in handheld mode. They do load when docked, but when I pull my switch from the dock, the game crashes.

I have sys-clk overlay and using tesla. I also have emubiio working on tesla.

Everything was working fine, until I decided to update atmosphere. I like to be current. BoTW save load crashed. I updated firmware and sigpatches (from @mrdude).

I tried to remove sys-clk and emubiio. Still, loading BoTW save crashes in handheld mode. I did disable sys-clk before uninstalling.

Strangely enough, this is the only game this happens to. Tinfoil loads. Hbmenu loads. Other switch games load well. It’s just this one game I’m having issue with. It’s more annoying than anything. I’ve already beat the game and have almost 400 hours on it. I really like the game and considering re-playing it. I do this with other games.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

i deleted everything but the ns-overlay and tesla. I’ll try to delete the rest late. I’m traveling in a van.

Wow. Just digging around to verify that I’m deleting things properly. Going through the sis-clk link, I found the BoTW directory, in atmosphere. I decided to peek and find a cheat text file. Other than a couple of folders, I found this one text file. I deleted it, because I really hate cheating, but was curious what things would be there. Now, BoTW loads in handheld. Cheats and themes, they can be so destructive.

Omg wow. I started installing Tesla and the overlays. Now my switch won’t boot. That’s ok, I’ll just have to wait a week until I have computer access again. I get atmosphere boot screens and sequence. Then, after the Nintendo logo, I get purple atmosphere screen. Strange thing, this time, all the numbers are zeros. Usually, they have value. Pretty sure I’ve got to get the installed files deleted, then manually add each one. I was using the homebrew store. FFS

This is the screen I now boot to.

Please don’t look at my dongle.

I’ll have to wait a while, but I was reading in another thread, that my issue may be related sys-clk. I’ll update again next Friday.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
