Hello

I built a server containing my Nintendo games.

I added the server's address to the tinfoil and it worked perfectly before.

However, recently Tinfoil sometimes does not display new games even though I can access the files in File Browser.

Has anyone ever dealt with this problem? I would be very grateful.

I think I have a similar problem and I can't find out the reason.

Below a picture of my filelisting (on my NAS) and under that Explorer window, my Tinfoil 'shop' on my Switch ("New Games") .
As you can see there are loads of files not showing up on my Switch and I don't have a clue why.

When I do a search ("+" on my Switch) for a game that's not showing up in the list, it sometimes DOES find it there (when searched for) and installs fine, even though the file does not appear as it should in the default listing.

So strange... Anyone any ideas? Thanks!!

Please have a look at the attached files. It's a mystery to my why this happens.
If anyone has any idea of things I could try, please let me know.


EDIT: :rofl2: My bad! Already installed games aren't under "New Games" (by design in Tinfoil). I wasn't aware.
And all XCI files show fine under "XCI" (not under "New Games").

All good I guess!

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I used to drink alcohol fairly often. Never to the point of it being a problem, but like 2-3 beers with dinner each night, or a few cocktails or glasses of Scotch or something. Started smoking/vaping weed a lot a few years back which killed 90% of my interest in booze. Now I stopped smoking/vaping weed as much and just deal with life the boring way most of the time
