Hacking [No longer maintained] RajNX - starter pack for Nintendo Switch

[Rahkeesh]

I thought hekate was just the bootloader? Which is what this is using?

So if I update with ChoiDujour and want to use this and prevent fuse burning, do I need to add nogc to every instance of kip1patch on hekate_ipl.ini ?

just only use the launch configurations that have PreventGCUpdate in their names

I’m assuming this would be post installation of the CFW. Is CDNX some kind of homebrew app? I remember reading about it being used to install updates from the switch directly.

It's Raj's own Switch homebrew for installing updates, yes. Being homebrew you need some kind of CFW to run it.

If you get the update files for your current version (4.1.0), you can run CDNX and pick the exFAT version of 4.1.0. Then it will only apply the exFAT update. Using that brew is much easier than the other tutorial method for exfat posted here on GBATemp.

Does this cfw go out of its way to snitch on you if you do something naughty?

so how do I get my 3.0.0 machine to prevent updates completely? I guess I have to go the 5.1.0 route if I want to play newer games, right?

Don't connect your Switch to the internet or use one of the various methods of blocking updates.

Newer games require newer software versions, yes. Super Mario Odyssey, for example, requires 3.0.1. Anything newer than that will probably require 3.0.1 or higher. If you want to update to 5.1.0 without burning any efuses in order to preserve a downgrade path back to 3.0.0, you can use this. However, it will require that you install AutoRCM so your system always coldboots into RCM.

RajNX 0.7.0 released, which comes with its own forked bootloader (and differently named ini file to prevent conflicts), sysmodules (which are now placed in RajNX dir), and some extra features !
If there was ever a doubt this was an actual CFW, there is none anymore (as forking the used software was apparently one of the requirements)!

Well then, that's the right way to do it, congrats!

He may come across as bull headed, and stubborn, but he did as asked. Can the whole thing be dropped?

I'm not on one side or the other, just tired of seeing people bash on others, when it doesn't Do anything constructive. I'm a fan of ReiNX, but I'm also glad the Raj and others are also doing good work.

This is a dumb question, but what is the eclct sysmodule, and what's the benefit of not letting it load?

 

[rajkosto]

it's the error collecting sysmodule

Is RajNX a Full CFW or SD Package like @tomGER ´s Starter Kit?

It's a full CFW, but it's similar to what you would get if you combined Hekate with tomGER's SD files.

It's basically a joke about if ReiNX can be called a cfw a lot of other things can too, but it's more like the starterpack from @tomGER (which could be called an cfw too)

 

[rajkosto]

It's a CFW, it includes
1. bootloader that patches kernel initial modules
2. sysmodules that patch additional things inside the OS

How do I activate autoRCM on this?

 

[rajkosto]

Go into the Tools menu and choose "Toggle AutoRCM" ?

 

[dsrules]

any plans of adding cheats support ?

You could install sys-netcheat yourself? It's not hard at all to install and the installation is the same as on 'vanilla' hekate.
