I've just updated to the latest firmware, got the latest sigpatches that are on pinned on this site and Goldleaf 0.9 but now when I try to install anything I get this error

invalid nca (might mean missing sigpatches or a too low firmware) (4518)

The games already installed load so there shouldn't be an issue in theory but here we are lol

First of all, why did you initially post this in the CFW subsection? Secondly, why did you make not one but two other threads in the same day? Instead of making so many threads, just use the Switch Noobs Paradise.

Sounds like...might mean missing sigpatches or a too low firmware. :rofl2:

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

1 - Format SD card to FAT32
2 - Fresh install of Atmosphere files on SD card. - https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases
3 - Get and put Correct Sigpatches in "atmosphere" folder - https://github.com/ITotalJustice/patches/releases
4 - (optional) Get Tinwoo or Goldleaf and place inside "switch" folder - https://github.com/XorTroll/Goldleaf/releases
5 - Boot into Hekate menu, select "Payloads", then select "Fusee-Primary"
Good Luck and Have fun!

It depends, some games I can install and some don't work and I get the exact same error. Sadly my nsp icons dont work due to this issue. I have an exfat sd card.

UPDATE: I found the issue, don't boot into CFW EMU using Hekate, use Fuseee Primary and the installation works fine.

I recommend you get Zadig set up and ns usbloader with Awoo usb installer. It’s much better and no issues at all for me. And you should always boot into RAM mode holding R+ going into a game.

the fusee and sigpatches does not matter. It should be the Atmosphere supports the switch firmware and the sigpatches supporting the atmosphere version.

seem to have found some issues here.

I tried dl various xci of the same game and a few worked. But as I go tinfoil is not completing the installation. It complains either my card formatted exfat is corrupted or sysnand full.

Please advise if I should factory reset It, format and weekend, and start all over?
