SaltyNX
Background process for the Nintendo Switch for file/code modification
Created by: https://github.com/shinyquagsire23
This fork includes many QoL improvements and beside plugins support also supports patches.
Since 0.7.0 version NX-FPS and ReverseNX-RT are an intergral part of SaltyNX Core. This allows us to run them in 64-bit games not compatible with plugins. To use ReverseNX-RT download newest overlay from HERE
Patches pattern:
- filename is symbol of function with filetype
.asm64, - inside file write with hex editor instructions that you want to overwrite for this function,
- put this file either to
SaltySD/patchesto make it work for every game, or toSaltySD/patches/*titleid*to make it work for specific game.
For additional functions you need SaltyNX-Tool
https://github.com/masagrator/SaltyNX-Tool
It is required to have FW installed at least 10.0.0 version
No technical support for:
- Atmosphere forks
- SX OS
- Kosmos
- ReinX
Known issues:
- Instability with some homebrews and sysmodules (like emuiibo),
- You need to have at least Hekate 5.0.2 if you don't want issues related to Hekate,
- 32 bit games are unsupported,
- Cheats using directly heap addresses may not work properly while using plugins.
How to download release:
For Atmosphere >=0.10.1 just put folders from archive to root of your sdcard.
For Atmosphere <=0.9.4 and any other CFW rename contents folder to titles
For SX OS remember to rename atmosphere folder to sxos
Remember to restart Switch
Thanks to
Cooler3Dfor sharing code with me how he was changing display refresh rate in his tools that were first publicly available tools allowing this on HOS. I have used that as basis to make my own function.
