Has anyone else had the issue when converting the prx files that says:

usage: downgrade_elf.py [-h] [--verbose] --sdk-version SDK_VERSION

Nobody seems to have a solution, and I've been messing with it for over a day trying to get it working.

Have used the app on external hdd 5tb. Works with no issues.

you have a big enough C drive to accommodate the full pkg size of the game you are trying to backport

just look at task manager when you are in the repacking process now


I created the backported patch for AC7 and it works with NO ISSUES.

I know it works without issues my problem is just that I have a small C Drive so thats why im getting errors on it

@RiPPERD is there any way for the app to use other drives besides C:/

It seems I have a little space for it since I just use a small SSD on my laptop

not sure what the problem is as others run it fine... maybe you running 32bit OS?

my tool converts the prx files fine... your doing it slightly wrong though... look at the title of the pY file... downgrade "ELF" you must first convert them to elf

what version are we on now and what about the ea games you figure that out yet
ive not released new version yet... still testing but this wont be out for few hours ive got work and the kids today.

im not 100% sure what the problem with EA games is... if you send me list of prx files ill make them convert but think its the eboot.bin file thats causing problems.

this is still for full game pkg files im going to work on the update/patch pkg next but no point trying to run before you can walk lol

FYI, Moddedwarfare released a backporter that makes a small patch from base game that only takes a min to build. Works really well. His new version supposedly does updates/patch files as well, haven’t tested.

same issues here. It uses to C drive as a temp drive while repacking even if I start backport on my external HDD that has big enough size. That's why I can't backport large games with this tool.

  • B @ BigArnold:
    Can you guys help with my problem concerning my Switch?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Did you switch it up
  • B @ BigArnold:
    Switch what up?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Switch the switch to resolve your issue
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigArnold, sorry but i cant, i dont have a switch. also what k3nv2 says is a joke
  • B @ BigArnold:
    That's what I figured. I put a post up in a forum but no one seems to replying to posts there. I also don't what this chat is attached to.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    General chat as it implies
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigArnold, try posting in the "switch noob paradise" thread
  • B @ BigArnold:
    That's where I put it. But like I said other people's posts from a day or two ago have no responses. I'm not sure if the chat is part of the Nintendo forum that I'm on or a part of the website as a whole.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigArnold, part of the website as a whole
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    then try making a thread
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    wait you are too new to be able to do that
  • B @ BigArnold:
    That's fine. I'll find my way.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @BigArnold you put the fusee or hekate.bin in the hekate/ payloads folder, or use app to push the payload to switch while its in rcm mode
    +1
  • B @ BigArnold:
    The problem is is that TegraGUI isn't detecting my Switch despite it being plugged in and in RCM or maintenance mode.
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Did you click install driver inside the tegra app.
  • B @ BigArnold:
    I did all of that stuff and it seemed successful but still nothing. The only thing different from the guide I used was that my device wasn't showing up as APX but rather Nintendo Switch.
  • B @ BigArnold:
    I did it inside the Tegra app and Zadig.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Try a different USB c cable, or different USB port on your pc.
  • B @ BigArnold:
    I tried a different port and don't have another cable. I'm fairly certain there's no issue with the equipment I'm using.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Some cheap USB c cables don't send data, they only charge
  • B @ BigArnold:
    The cable is usually used to connect my controller to my switch's dock.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Only other thing Id suggest is using a phone/tablet and use the Rekato app, or different pc
  • B @ BigArnold:
    Okay then.
    Thanks for your help.
