Hacking SX OS begins to be cracked

[scottgl]

I just looked over the payload.bin and boot.dat files. Did some initial analysis with binwalk and played with the payload for a bit with IDA Pro. i can tell you right now, this will not be cracked in the near future if at all. The payload contains self modifying code with no strings found in either boot.dat or payload.bin. This tells me boot.dat is definitely encrypted, and payload.bin is obfuscated. I say there's a pretty low chance of anyone with the skills to invest the time it would require to crack this.

Dude, really? I just said on how the way he responded to the situation was very fucking childish...

 

[WDragon]

Ah the sweet sweet drama! At that point, it useless to criticize anyone on anything , at the speed that everything will go from now on. What a chain cascade of events. Incredible as always. It is a very dark day for Nintendo developer. Maybe will see Mariko sooner that we expect.

Tbh, that's great to hear. I atleast want some support for this thing. We all paid for it. I want it to atleast live long enough so I can play with it.

Naehrwert will never release this. Hes only cracking it to rub it in your peasant faces for messing with his code. Really you are the dumb ones if you think hes cracking it to release it.

 

[Centergaming]

Why does it matter? It's his work, and he's allowed to do with it what he deems fit. Not your choice, and crying about it just adds to the toxicity. Don't you think?

You're part of the toxicity... Don't act like you're not...

naehrwert is cool shit man, while everybody else wasn't releasing anything, he blew the scene wide open with hekate. Its just a shame that people fucked it up, he was almost done with emunand.

Xecuter even made their CFW free for homebrew use. Please anti-piracy people explain to me why it would need to be cracked then?

No matter how the scene went, drama is expected. Both sides end up getting mad in some way. It's just conflicts in views. Cant avoid it.

Everyone who pays for piracy deserves to get screwed over

I didn't pay for shit, but that dongle is might tempting. If I wasn't on 3.0, I'd maybe pick one up when the price went down.

i was following it on reddit yesterday step by step

hope that means good news for retail consoles.
im not an expert really

Nothing will come of this either. EDEV units are the same as retail units except have double memory. They need a SDEV unit...

You realize we already decrypted it right?

What site did you buy the key from? I bought mine from axiogame.com about a week ago and the status is still ""processing". I'm considering trying to cancel my order.

STFU you LAMER

Lamer? Seriously? Come on. @the_randomizer had a good point. Naehrwert (or however you spell his name) is a hypocrite for taking down hekate and then immediately cracking SX OS. This is just a game of one-upping each other now, innit?

He didn't want his program being used for piracy, but hacking a paid program to use it for free, what are we not getting here?

 

[Zumoly]

Actually it's a matter of time before we start seeing a custom boot.dat file to unlock the OS!
It will be dope for free users to actually launch the OS before TX PRO users!

The fact of the matter is, Naehrwert is a hypocrite. Either he should stop cracking SX or reupload Hekate. His choice.

whatever, everything foxboy says irks me. naweskhert didn't make TX though all he is doing is REing it for whatever. He did the same thing with that thing crediar made for WiiU it isn't new behavior.


Basically TXSXOS is already out, he is just REing it.

Look at it like this, he won't write pirate code but will RE it.

It's very childish how the way he responded, he "open-sourced" the project file, does he not realize this can be modified?
