Hello everyone. Massive noob to the scene here,


I have recently updated my atmosphere, hekate and nyx to their latest versions (1.5.2, 6.0.3 and 1.5.3 respectively.) I also downloaded the latest switch firmware (16.0.2). I launched fusee.bin and went onto daybreak in order to upgrade my firmware. After a seemingly successful update, I rebooted and was met with a fatal error screen with the code 2001-0123. I tried to reboot but was stuck in a crash loop, and I couldn't inject a payload to go back into hekate. I have since turned the console off by holding the power button and it will not turn on again. I would greatly appreciate any help in attempting to get my switch to work again.

Thank you

Success! I can access fusee.bin fine now, with the latest firmware! If you may choose to enlighten me, can you explain how this sysmodule problem occured?

Thank you for the help!

Sysmodules often need to be changed and / or recompiled for newer firmware Versions. You probably have one ore more that's just not compatible with firmware 16.0.2! I'd recommend to update your sysmodules and read their changelogs. Hopefully most, if not all of the ones you are using, have been updated for 16.X already. Good luck!

The sysmod is Tesla. You have to make sure you are using the latest nx-ovlloader. https://github.com/WerWolv/nx-ovlloader/releases/tag/v1.0.6

On top of that, you need to make sure you're using a new version of tesla menu

Tesla-Menu with dock workaround (not the libnx fix): https://github.com/WerWolv/libtesla/files/11126965/ovlmenu.zip

Then you need to update the REST of your Tesla overlays to working versions for firmware 16.x.x and possibly preliminary docked support.

Edizon: https://github.com/proferabg/EdiZon-Overlay/releases/download/v1.0.5/EdiZon-Overlay.zip

I don't know which you use. All can be found by looking around.

As recently told, the module which is crashing is Tesla, when you update your Atmosphére (not matter if is because a new firmware or only a new version released) you need to update your sigpatches and look if all the homebrew need be updated too. on the case of Tesla and the OVLs all they needed new versions because a new library was released for Firmware 16.x.x support.

You can go to https://gbatemp.net/threads/tesla-the-nintendo-switch-overlay-menu.557362/post-10121629 and download the latest versions of Tesla, OVLMenu and the Overlays you use and update your SD Card.

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it

    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022

    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds
