Goldleaf - A Nintendo Switch multipurpose homebrew tool

Goldleaf

Goldleaf is a multipurpose homebrew tool for Nintendo Switch!​

Similar to the well-known 3DS homebrew FBI, Goldleaf serves as a file browser/manager/editor, title manager, user account manager... and more!



Let Goldleaf make your life easier while dealing with more or less technical Nintendo Switch stuff!

I don't have any fs_patches folder, just default_nogc. They aren't part of the latest kosmos or additional sigpatches zip. As mentioned I can install games from SD with goldleaf 0.5 and run them just fine, just no USB install. NXMTP USB transfers are also working fine.

I dont know if Xortroll knows the bug , but it is an know bug , we discussed here in this thread , i have the same problem on nightly 5.0 and i have the sigpatches , but i will just wait 0.5 to release and continue to use 0.3 until then which works fine.

you could use tools to sort the FAT32, but you need to do it every time you add a new file.

I know FATSort, but it's for Linux.
there are tools for windows, but never tested them so I wouldn't want to recommend unknown/untested tools.
edit: here what I found anyway: Drive sort (french, and maybe not a portable app), Fat Sorter, yafs

I think we had a tool for 3DS. I'll post it here if I find it.
edit: https://www.maxconsole.com/threads/gateway-3ds-rom-sorter-beta.31452/
I don't know if it lists only .3ds files, or all files.

or you can wait for alphabetical sorting order added to goldleaf.

Yeah it's fine I'll just wait. I would consider using another tool, but it doesn't bother me enough to want to have to do it every time I create a new file. I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't a setting I was overlooking or something like that. I'm gonna check out those tools you posted though just because I didn't even know those existed. I have never ran across an issue like this before. Must be a *NIX thing.

Thanks for the response. B-)

So when I originally read "but you need to do it every time you add a new file", I misinterpreted that as, every time I add a new file to the drive, then ALL of the files would go back to being out of order. But then the more I thought about it I was like that doesn't make sense, maybe he meant that I would have to do it every time I add a new file so that the "new file/folder" would now be in the correct order as well. So I decided to give DriveSort a try, and obviously I know now that you meant the latter. DriveSort worked great! I was able to sort my entire SD Card in alphabetical order and the whole process took less than 20 seconds to complete.

Thanks again for the info! B-)

Just tried latest Goldleaf 0.5 nightly USB install in combination with Goldtree on FW 6.2, Atmos 0.8.5 - following Error - 0x234a02, Invalid NCA magic (missing sigpatches?) (firmware too low?)
Sigpatches are in place. Game definitely doesn't need 7.0. What else could be going wrong?

Running 7.0.1 FW, 11.11.1 Kosmos CFW, prod.keys(from Lockpick), keys included with Kosmos + additional keys from link above, Goldleaf v0.5 nightly I'm able to install from SD, but I'm not able to install from USB.

I failed to install from USB + SD using Goldleaf/Goldtree v0.4 had no success due to either freezing or it just would give up transfer.

I was able to install via USB using Goldleaf.nro v0.3, and Goldtree v0.4, SD untested(As USB was my desired method, hopes this helps someone).


EDIT: After more USB installations I wanted to mention the following: Do not attempt to install multiple .nps files on the same boot, it's not working for me. I have to reboot each time, and I am also having the most success running Goldtree in Administrator.

@XorTroll, can you provide any insight about fixing my storage? I deleted a game via Goldleaf without thinking about it and I still have the same amount of space as before I deleted it, yet the game doesn't show up anywhere, using 6.0.0 ReinX.

Can i tell if the game or update I am installing needed the ignore firmware version option?
Or can I just ignore for every nsp I install?

why Blawar's Tinfoil can install nsp's from SD/USB on 7.X and Goldleaf can only do it from USB?
Will XTroll fix this issue?
I do like SD method.

Hello all, I would like to share as well to see if it helps and ask some questions.

Running 7.0.1 FW, 11.11.1 Kosmos CFW + additional sigpatches, sdcard exfat 256gb.
Not working for me USB install (pc+switch)
-Goldleaf .5 + Goldtree .4 = hangs on install 0/10
-Goldleaf .4 + Goldtree .4 = hangs most of the times 3/10

Working for me (pc+switch)
-Goldleaf .3 + Goldtree .3 = installs nsp 10/10
The only way to get 10/10 for me is to install nsp after it finishes press + to close goldleaf and then close goldtree and start the process again (for every installation).

Questions
1. I have my prod.keys(from Lockpick) where do I put the keys in goldleaf?
2. Will Goldleaf .5 work for me if I install kosmos additional sigpatch + fs_patches?
3. When should I ignore software when installing
----base game = yes/no
----DLC = yes/no
----update= yes/no
4. Why is it that .3 USB speeds transfer work faster than .4 (was unable to install anything with .5).
5. Goldleaf crashes if I hit the home button.
6. Any suggestions to make goldleaf .5 work better?

Thank you

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • 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
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjCivnt5t50
  • 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)

    run h2testw on it
