Ability to enable or disable patching at boot time #12

Closed Aeris1One closed 5 months ago

Aeris1One commented 1 year ago

There is an option available on Aroma's Plugin Config Menu to enable or disable connection to Pretendo network, there's also a notification "Using Pretendo Network" to ensure we are aware that the console uses Pretendo.

Would it be possible to implement an option to enable or disable patching at boot time ?

Something like :

  1. The console starts and show user selection menu
  2. A notification "Using [Pretendo/Nintendo] Network, hold ⊝ to connect to [Nintendo/Pretendo] Network" appears depending on where you're connecting
  3. If ⊝ is held, the console reboots and the "Use Pretendo" setting is switched on or off

Aroma Updater works similar to this by sending a notification "An update is available, click on ⊕ to start Updater", so detecting a button input while in user selection should be possible. Code to check combo pressed is here : https://github.com/wiiu-env/AromaBasePlugin/blob/ea5f427d51b93d1b4ad506c8dcd3100db5feebb9/src/UpdaterCheck.cpp#L107

This isn't a bad idea, unfortunately I only saw it after switching to NN got a lot less useful - would people still want this?

Cleaning up some older issues and looking for ones to add to our task tracker. @ashquarky is this something we want to move forward with or should this be closed? There's not much reason to switch back to NN now outside of eShop purchases?

eShop purchases is the only real usecase, and I've not seen much interest for this. Will close for now, still open to adding it if there's demand.
