Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Draxzelex]

i am reading Tutorial after tutorial but its sad that there is no pinned ultimate tutorial for everybody.
Question. If i pirated a game and want to play with it online it will get me probably banned right ?
I habe a old switch now and i just want to flash it so that i can download games and play them. No hacking or cheating ?
Do i get it right that the best way would be to play with sysnand online and with emunad offline my downlaoded games or can i play online on emunand ?

Honestly most online Switch guides don't cover everything so I'm kind of not surprised there isn't one on here. Anyways, running any sort of CFW or homebrew can get you banned. It doesn't matter if you go online with sysMMC or emuMMC but whichever one you go online with cannot be running any CFW or homebrew. All of this information can be obtained from the pinned banning thread.

1. Its been well known that factory resets don't prevent bans. People have even been banned after performing one so without a clean eMMC backup, you are out of luck
2. You are overthinking it. In order to install it on sysMMC, you just launch CFW on sysMMC then install it from there. There is no other way to do it

So I backed emmc boot 0&1 and raw while had a dirty emunand but clean stock. Which means I got a clean stock right? Even tho the emunand was crawling with dirty nsps

Well if you made a backup of your clean sysMMC then yes. But if you made a backup of your dirty emuMMC then no. Its hard to verify that information after the fact because emuMMC and sysMMC are technically the same.

Correct.

No hacking or cheating ?

But you must hack the console to play pirated games.

sysMMC is for online, and emuMMC is for all your hackery stuff. Use this guide for set up an emuMMC.

Ahh ok thanks you helped me a lot. So the best would be my New SD-Card will get like 100gb for the emummc und 100 gb for the sysmmc ?

I've seen now that games either have a nsp file or a xci file . Which one should i get ? Whats the difference. Please tell me if the is anything else i have to look out for. Tuesday my sd card arrives and then i'll flash. Or could i flash today on a 64 gb card and then move the stuff over ?

 

[BaamAlex]

o the best would be my New SD-Card will get like 100gb for the emummc und 100 gb for the sysmmc ?

The sysMMC is the internal storage from the console. The emuMMC is on your card. And both are only 32gb big. Not 100.

My (launch) Switch has laid dormant for a while. I was running ReiNX with firmware "updated" via Choi to ~5 or 6. The real firmware/fuses are 2.something. I plan to start playing it again soon. I have two questions:

Is there anything substantial I would sacrifice by updating, should I continue to try to preserve the 2.x firmware/fuses?

Is there any special concern I should know about doing such a large update, that's not mentioned in the FAQ/guides? Presumably the update would be to current Atmosphere and a near-current firmware.

And where are the games installed then ?
Is it then SysMMC and emuMMC or ist it SysMMc for keeping lower firmware , emuMMC for pirated games offline and another emuMMC for my original games to play online ?

 

[BaamAlex]

sysMMC for online services. Firmware doesn't matter here. EmuMMC is offline and for all your hackery stuff. Exosphère, 90dns and so on.

You don't lose much if you update especially if you preserve the anti-downgrade fuses. There were updates to the cartridge slot on higher firmware versions that are also irreversible but those are important to keep under the assumption that there will be an exploit in the future that utilizes a cartridge.

Well after I have downloaded nsps to atmosphere and some other CFWs to it I saw that I should eMMC from hekate. So I have done the eMMC back up from hekate after I have installed nsp games and custom files to the emuMMC. Would that result in dirty stock backup?

Yes and you cannot make a clean eMMC backup after the fact.

Having one of the weirdest issues, Was playing Xenoblade DE, and wanted to shorten the grind I was doing a bit by getting a xp modifier cheat, so I downloaded the tesla overlays for edizon, then used the All In one updater homebrew to download the cheats files, however after I had done that Xenoblade DE refuses to run, it will crash with the software closed because an error occurred error if I try and run it, thought it was the tesla stuff so removed those and rebooted, no dice, thought perhaps me going into edizon manually when the game was running previously perhaps corrupted the game so reinstalled it, no dice, however I noticed if I used the all in one app to delete the cheats file the game suddenly will run again, no idea why just the cheats file itself is breaking things anyone know?

My atmosphere autoRCM switch, I changed it to stock - sysnand and to update my firmware to get ready for monster hunter rise (legit).

Now I'm trying to switch it back to CFW - Emmu, but when I turn the console off it still restarts back into normal sysnand. How do I get back to the hekate launch screen?

When you update your FW it will disable the autoRCM. You must enable RCM mode by using a jig in right joycan slot, holding down volume + and press power button, then plug usb to pc or injector, and push the hekate payload, then once in the hekate menu you can change the autoRCM back to on. Good luck and have fun!

 

[Paranoidsteak]

Wow thanks!

 

[BaamAlex]

When you update your FW it will disable the autoRCM.

Wat? No? This isn't true.

Well it did for me last time I updated to 11.0.1 from Normal stock Nintendy server, not sure if does with Daybreak though.

Nope. Atmosphere has autorcm protection
This "issue" with a fixed autorcm were already fixed in the past

 

[BigOnYa]

I know when I last updated from Stock OFW with Nintendy, when I rebooted it, autoRCM was turned off, so had to go into hekate and re-enable it...idk just my experience with it. I did update it normally though, not through Atmosphere/Daybreak.

Not a big deal tho, I don't care about burning fuses, and is easy to re-enable it in hekate menu.
