Hey Neo, would you be interested in helping to moderate this community? If so, let me know and I will add you.

Game storage? Separate NSP files or B+? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Go with separate nsp for base, update, and dlc. That is the standard way to dump games. Combining them into one is a bad idea and you'll be stuck with an outdated bundled update later if a new update comes out.

I mean all the v1 needs is an rcm jig and a pc. Nothing else.

NSP vs XCI files? Which do you prefer? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I would prefer nsp/nsz since those are eShop dumps and intended to be installed into the system.

Xcis are gamecard dumps and weren't intended to be installed, so the installer has to modify it in order for the console to pick it up as a digital copy.

Basically, the nsp is just cleaner - you install the game without any modifications, and just register the ticket for it to the system.

[Guide] Changing WiFi Regions on Any Switch Console (Erista or Mariko) by Editing PRODINFO to Fix Missing 5Ghz Channels (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Introduction

Japanese Switch consoles (XAW, XKJ, XTJ) are unable to use higher 5GHz channels due to their WiFi chipsets being set to the JPN WiFI region in PRODINFO which restricts their use. You can manually change this region code to unlock the channels and use them in the USA or EU if you have an imported Japanese console.

This guide is meant for use with emuMMC, but it can be followed on sysMMC as well by mounting eMMC RAW GPP in Hekate to NxNandManager instead of the SD card's emuMMC. Be careful and keep PRODINFO backups if messing with PRODINFO on sysMMC.

Getting Started

We'll be using NxNandManager, and HxD to edit the PRODINFO. If you haven't dumped your console's prod.keys yet, you will also need to do that. Use your own console's prod.keys, this is important!

Downloads:

Preparations

  1. Download NxNandManager, and extract the zip file.
  2. Download and install HxD by running the setup.exe after extracting its zip.

If you haven't dumped your keys yet, I'll go over it quickly here. You can skip this if you have already dumped your console's keys.

  1. Download the latest release of Lockpick_RCM.bin, linked above.
  2. Place this file in /bootloader/payloads on your SD card, and boot into Hekate.
  3. Go to the Console Info tab, and tap the Lockpick RCM button.
  4. Click the power button once in Lockpick to dump keys from sysMMC, then click power again, then highlight the option to power off and click power button once to confirm.

Dumping PRODINFO

We are now ready to go. First, we will dump the PRODINFO that needs editing:

  1. Take out the SD card from your Switch with emuMMC and insert it into your PC.
  2. Run NxNandManager.exe on your PC and grant Admin when requested.
  3. In NxNandManager, go to the Options tab and click Configure keyset
  4. Click Import Keys From File, and navigate to /switch on your SD card. Select prod.keys and hit Open. Then hit the Save button in the Configure keyset window. [Reference Picture]
  5. Click File in NxNandManager, and select Open Drive
  6. Select your emuMMC partition on your SD. (This will be about 29GB on V1 and V2 consoles, and about 59GB on OLED consoles.) [Reference Picture]
  7. Select PRODINFO in the partition list.
  8. Select the Advanced Copy button on the right pane.
  9. Select Decrypt in the options, and set a file path to where you want to dump the file. (Any working directory you want to use is fine). [Reference Picture]
  10. Hit Dump to dump the decrypted PRODINFO to your PC.

Editing PRODINFO

  1. Run HxD on your PC, and open the dumped PRODINFO.bin file.
  2. In HxD, click on the Search tab and select Go to. Input 0080 and hit OK.
  3. Copy the North America WlanRegionCode data, provided below:
01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 52 32 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 4E C4
  1. Go back to HxD, and highlight range 0080 through 020F in HxD. [Reference Picture]
  2. Right click on the highlighted range, and select Paste write. [Reference Picture]
  3. The data should be written to the selected range, and it should turn red to indicate unsaved data. [Reference Picture]
  4. At the top of HxD, select Save to save your PRODINFO changes, and then exit HxD.

Restoring Modified PRODINFO

  1. Open NxNandManager on your PC again. Go to File, and select Open File.
  2. Open the PRODINFO.bin file you just modified with HxD. Right click on PRODINFO in the left pane, and select Encrypt & dump to file. [Reference Picture]
  3. Select a folder (any folder you can find later) to dump the encrypted PRODINFO to, and hit OK. You should find a PRODINFO.enc in the folder you specified.
  4. Select File in NxNandManager, and then select Close file/drive.
  5. Select the File tab again, and select Open Drive
  6. Select your emuMMC partition on your SD.
  7. Select PRODINFO in the partition list on the left pane.
  8. On the right pane, select Restore from file. Find your PRODINFO.enc file, and open it. [Reference Picture]
  9. Accept the prompt to write PRODINFO, then exit NxNandManager.

Finishing Up

You should now have a USA WiFi region code in your emuMMC's PRODINFO, allowing you to use the same channels as USA Switches. Boot into Hekate, and launch emuMMC, then try connecting to any 5GHz network you weren't able to before.

For example, my 5Ghz network on Channel 165 now works fine:

I agree, Sourceshop isn't very reliable right now from what I hear due to the extremely restrictive GDrive quotas. LiberaShop doesn't seem to have these issues.

New Tinfoil Shop - LiberaShop Connection Info (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

A new, completely free, Tinfoil shop just launched hours ago. The post about it was initially made on r/SwitchPirates here: https://old.reddit.com/r/SwitchPirates/comments/17zuz53/introducing_liberashop_a_new_tinfoil_shop/

Even though the Discord server hosting the connection info has gotten taken down, the shop is still fully functional, you just need to input the address in Tinfoil to connect to it.

A screenshot of the connection info was captured by an r/SwitchPirates user before the server got taken down. You can setup LiberaShop using the info provided here: https://i.imgur.com/fo1yUp7.jpg

Happy downloading!

Edit: their link that previously redirected to Discord has been updated to point to a Telegram channel instead. You can find it by following this link: https://chat.liberashop.rs/

Edit 2: Here's a direct link to their Telegram: https://t.me/s/liberashop

YouTube's anti-adblock rollout has finally arrived for Firefox users in c/[email protected]

The time of YouTube may finally be coming to a close.

Yes, and Reddit is dead. This is delusional, simply not happening. YouTube is huge and a self hosted or federated solution won't come even close. Lemmy instances had issues with user overload, and this is a Reddit clone. What do you think will happen with videos?

GratiSwitch Tinfoil Shop Now Back Up (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

GratiSwitch is now back up, if anyone wants to look into that. It's not the best or most complete shop around, but it's something and it's free. I would advise anyone using it to make sure NCA Signature Verification is set to ON in Tinfoil to avoid any bad files. From what I heard, the person behind this shop is using the same DDL game sites we know, and just hosting their files as a shop. Thus there is no guarantee the files are all good.

Safe site to download older games? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I agree. I've stopped pirating games on PC as well because the risk is simply no longer worth it. I can afford games and can pay for the ones I need on PC. They're also not as overpriced as console games.

Also Loli is definitely CSAM. Kinda weird you defend it when you just want "visual novels".

I'm not explicitly defending it, I just don't consider it csam. (As no actual kids are involved) Simple opinion. Either way, I don't mind them removing the rule allowing it, as I don't particularly care for loli characters anyway. I just want access to the community back.

This is quite concerning. Hopefully the adblocker extension devs are able to bypass this. I expect a cat and mouse game eventually.

Anti-Piracy Lessons Enter the School Curriculum: Are You a Thief? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

The last sentence suggests that, in some cases, pirates can get content sooner than their paying counterparts. This availability issue is often seen as a main driver of piracy. While improvements can be made on the supply side, the course urges teens to postpone their needs instead.

Really? Who would've guessed that piracy is a service problem? How about you improve your shit so people don't feel inclined to pirate it. Who's gonna pay for a shittier experience?

Looking for suggestions for a quick torrent box setup on ARM64 Debian - VPN with Killswitch + Torrent Client + WebUI Access on LAN (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Just need a simple torrent box. I've tried using the transmission-openvpn docker container in the past, but it keeps on having issues, either with the systemd service detailed in the manual not working properly, or fuckery with how it saves files, where it makes them owned by root on the host.

Is docker still the best way to go about this? I've used it in the past because I need only the client itself to be on the VPN, but the WebUI needs to be accessible on my actual network. The docker container made this split tunneling setup easy to do.

I'll also be running Jellyfin on the same machine, which also needs to be a local lan server, so running the VPN on the system globally isn't an option, since Jellyfin and the WebUI need to not go through the VPN.

So, any suggestions for what I should do?
