Hacking Team-Xecuter Announces SX OS v1.7 with Switch Firmware v6.0 compatibility

[novalkun]

I play online so stealth mode isn’t an option for me. Nice feature for those that want to be completely blocked from Nintendo and use FTP programs though

your switch is not banned playing online? how? i thought just by connect to internet, nintendo will detect the cfw. does latest hekate from tumger prevent ban?

Stealth mode is a DNS server built into the CFW. Regardless of whether or not the other CFWs are capable of adding such a thing, its not designed to prevent bans. Much like Airplane Mode, it merely blocks Nintendo-related URLs from resolving meaning it acts like a self-imposed ban for Nintendo-related online services. What the other CFWs do have over SX OS are actual anti-banning tools such as creport and disabling of eclct via a custom pm.kip.

Think of it like this: I can add a custom DNS server (aka stealth mode) and the anti-banning tools to all non-SX OS CFWs while I can only use Stealth Mode or a custom DNS server with SX OS.

EDIT: To avoid being misquoted as a "TX Hater" understand that this is an objective difference between SX OS and all other CFWs.

so you mean if i use, for example, the latest sdfiles from TumGER, my switch cannot be banned? how? i understand stealth mode is like DNS or airplane special for nintendo server. i prefer that because i am not playing online. only for FTP and remote debug only

Alot of people are happy with this release, but there is still some reporting 'blackscreen' so, to get to the bottom for those not working, lets filll out this form:

#1 - Original factory firmware
#2 - Update to what firmware,before updating to 6.0
#3 - There is at least 3 different 6.0 beta builds on the CDN, what is 'md5 hash' of the one you upgraded with.
#4 - ChoiNX has alot of different options.
#5- Those with 'blackscreen', what was the previous firmware you were on.
#5 - #2 - what options, did you select when upgrading to 6.x
#5 - #3 - did you burn fuses or not?
#5 - #4 - did you upgrade the game-cartridge firmware or not?
#5 - #5 - what options did you use to get to v6.0.0
#6 - Hopefully the above info, will help narrow down the issues, and make everyone happy.

Wtf kind of form is this

Nothing prevents a ban. I just haven’t been hit yet.

Your chances of getting banned can go down if you use tomGER's SD files for example but SX OS doesn't really offer anything like that in their CFW. You can achieve the equivalent of Stealth Mode with a custom DNS server which is basically just changing the DNS settings of your Wi-Fi connection. Plus, we already have a tutorial on how to setup the most common one, 90DNS. The only point of contention here is that Stealth Mode is built into SX OS while 90DNS has to be configured separately which isn't really a big deal as most TX supporters make it out to be.

Regardless of whatever anti-banning options are available, there will likely never be one to prevent people from getting banned for playing their backups online, .XCI or .NSP. And for people who are still injecting certificates into .XCI files without a ban, Nintendo usually bans in waves and there has only been one banwave so far. The upgrade to CDN bans was either a server side change or a manual upgrading of all normal bans to CDN bans; people who weren't banned before likely did not notice they were banned already.

so the chance of me getting banned is lowering but it's not a full protection. My ISP is blocking custom/manual DNS. My country policy. It sucks really, so it's not an option for me. So a built hekate with stealth mode is the last option for me for DNS setting built without need to modify DNS on Switch internet. what i understand is if i play nsp game while connected to internet, Nintendo would detect it and would ban me. i do not want that.

I've already explained that Nintendo can ban both, .XCI or .NSP. Many people have gone online .NSP whether by accident or on purpose without a ban. Just see how many people have reported the error code 2124-4024 which is the one you get for having an illegitimate ticket. That ticket can be considered illegitimate without CFW such as using a game bought with one Nintendo Account with one that did not purchase it.

yes, i said NSP because Free CFW can only play NSP games. XCI is still exclusive for SX OS for now. So, if i load hekate ctcaer 4.0 CFW, then connect to internet, and then play one NSP game like Zelda which is without Multiplayer play, Nintendo may or may not ban me?

 

[DarkenedMatter]

Team Xecuter: "We're releasing SX OS with support for 6.0.0"

Also Team Xecuter: *doesn't implement the one-line bugfix in Atmosphere's loader they're using without GPL compliance that makes eShop/webapps crash on launch in 6.0.0*

Quality QA testing.

Nintendo can ban you, regardless of whatever CFW you use. Statistics show that SX OS has contributed to most of the bans but that's because it implemented piracy first hence Nintendo has more data on SX OS users than non-SX OS users. They can also ban you without even touching backups but there's only been one case of that and that user cleared error logs on 5.X which is not recommended. They can also ban you for going online with a .XCI with or without an injected certificate.

>Until a free CFW clones all functionality found in SX OS, SX OS will continue to be a thing. The end.

ReiNX. Now leave, please.

Loads xci? No? Get the fuck outta here

 

[TimeMaster]

#1 - 3.0
#2 - Latest, 5.1
#3 - Don't know how to check MD5 of a folder
#4 - Install autorcm after install
#5- 5.1 exfat
#5 - #2 - ExFat install autorcm after install
#5 - #3 - No
#5 - #4 - I would assume its already updated since im above 4.0 already
#5 - #5 - I got this same questions twice and its the same answer as the last 2 times
#6 - Hopefully the above info, will help narrow down the issues, and make everyone happy.

What? cleared error logs make a ban . that's why sdlfile8 has not put clear log files on front anymore. So, in the end, i need to change my ISP if i want to remote debug, or not online at all then

I preordered the SX Pro and don't regret it at all, but that was always with the hope that open source solutions would overtake it eventually. Even if some people don't care about GPL violations, it's obviously better for everybody for the scene to quickly reach the point where open solutions are better. I'm not sure how some people dispute this.

I removed SX from my system this weekend because open source solutions have reached a point of maturity where they are better. This is a good thing. Luckily I can still use the TX dongle for this, which really is one of the better dongles thanks to the size. Win-win.

To combat code theft, homebrew devs should continue to make regular freeware releases, but only release the the relevant source commits 6 months after the release date.

It's not ideal, but it would put some serious brakes on what TX is doing.

While this would seem sensible, it doesn't really suit how open development works. Development relies heavily on contributions not just from inside the teams, but also push and pull requests and contributions from external contributors. A lot of code often comes from other projects rather than reinventing the wheel, in line with what the license allows. This isn't really possible if the source isn't publicly available. Open source isn't just an ideological standpoint, it plays a very practical role in the development process.

Not to mention the minefield of issues caused by temporarily withholding the source code for GPL-licenced code.

 

[Reploid]

Why every thread with 'sx' on it is a warzone?

 

[Ric-Are-Those]

Really? Well that's just funny. I should be shaming myself then. (pirates some switch games with tinfoil)
But no. It's still bullshit that they stole code. They claimed it was their own work. And there is proof. If you want proof, go ahead. Use one of the reverse engineering scripts for sx os. And then try to see if you can find a match. (hint you will)
This isn't about pirating switch games. It's about shitting on developers who actually fucking work (team xeuctor is shitting on a community by claiming work that isn't their own)

Yeah because shiting on the developers of the games you should pay for to keep their livelihood is not as bad as taking code from someone tinkering for a hobby. That is totally fine with me.
I bet you don't even care, you just want to pick an arbitrary side in this asinine war.
