    Ok with SXOS bout to bite the big one what is there to do for those who got on that boat? Well I been hearing about converting from SXOS to atmosphere, Yeah it's going to be a pain to patch your game files but what other choice do we got? Not to mention 3rd party chips maybe coming out thanks to the leak and SXOS likely will be dead next update there is not much time to migrate. So I implore you Switch modders out there to create a guide on how to move from SXOS to atmosphere, converting the EMUNAND from SXOS to atmosphere if possible and patching the games also converting from XCI to atmosphere compatible NSP. This will be a pain in the butt, But since the big N shut down SXOS we have no other choice. something like a stickied, clearly marked, guide would really be helpful right about now for those worried about sxos.

    I agree! The big problem though is Mariko consoles. Atmosphere currently just doesn't work on Mariko consoles at all! Same with Hekate! I'm hoping something surfaces for Mariko soon!

    Unpatched user:

    Use Emutool to backup your emunand, and manually back up sd card.

    Format card and install atmosphere.

    Use Emutool to restore your emunand in atmosphere format. Edit emuMMC.ini to point to your emutendo folder.

    Move everything from sxos/titles folder to atmosphere/content.

    Done.



    Patched Erista, Mariko users:

    You can't.

    Done.


    There's already much more lengthy guides for this in the Tutorials section of this very forum. There's also still no proof that SX is dead. The website stability has always sucked.

    All erista users can use Atmosphere, and SX partition emuNAND starts on sector 0x2.
    So you can use SX partition emuNAND on Atmosphere by simply editing /emuMMC/emummc.ini.
    Or if you are using file based emuNAND, just rename to Atmosphere style.

    They can't. SciresM works on mariko support atm.

    EDIT: My bad. I misread it. Sorry.

    The SX OS emunand is compatible with Atmosphere, only need to edit the emummc.ini.

    Great to know. I personally never tried. I assumed the offset might screw with Atmosphere, but good to know it doesn't.

    Let's say I have updated to 11.0.1 by mistake as I though it was 11.0.0 and having dragged all my save to my pc etc, I flashed the sd card and now it is clean, og unpatched switch updated from big N directly (I never got banned so I just update and make a new emunand from sysnand with the new firmware, worked so far) how would I migrate to atmosphere and is there a way to make a emunand in atmosphere. Sorry for the wall of words.

    Atmosphere itself can't create an emunand. You need hekate for this.

    Guide? Lol just download atmosphere on github extract on SD card root then download patches extract on root and use Tegra to inject payload, easy as that.

    Yeah, but a few people need a written guide for that. Or asking questions like "Where do i put my food in?".
