Finally got homebrew / custom firmware on your Switch? Here's a list of common things you can do with it.

Most, if not all of the homebrew listed should be on hbappstore (Homebrew App Store)

Hacks Guide Wiki:To-do list

2024-08-18T10:26:08Z

3dscartridges: fix that wip tag

{{shortcut|HGW:TTD|HGW:TODO}}{{TOC right}}This is where we can keep a list of things that should be done, such as pages that need creating or adding to.

{{ombox|text=For organizational purposes, please mark items based on their status (and link them if applicable):
* {{Done}} <code>{{tl|Done}}</code>
* {{WIP}} <code>{{tl|WIP}}</code>
* {{Skip}} <code>{{tl|Skip}}</code>}}

== Pages ==

=== Organization ===

Once this wiki has "enough content" (whatever that means), before we can start advertising it publicly, we need better page organzation.

* Index/contents pages? Generally anything someone might want or need to do with hacks. Save backup and restore, transfers, troubleshooting, informational pages, etc. Similar to [[3DS:Things to do]] but that one is more like "here's a list of cool things you can do".

=== Main Page ===

A nice [[Main Page]] should be made. It should include a simple explanation of what homebrew is, then links to the main guides, the "Things to do" pages, and maybe troubleshooting.

A search box could be put here too.

<pre><nowiki>
<inputbox>
type=search
placeholder=Placeholder text here...
width=70
</inputbox>
</nowiki></pre>

=== Console introductions ===

These pages should be like an all-around intro to things about hacking a console. Links to guides on getting hacks set up, links to the "things to do", maybe troubleshooting for when things go wrong...

I'm not sure how necessary these pages are though, if there isn't enough stuff that can't also go on the "Things to do" pages. [[User:Ihaveahax|ihaveahax]] ([[User talk:Ihaveahax|talk]]) 02:52, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
: In my opinion they should be the main hub for everything related to the console itself with quick and easy access/links to the most important articles and console related help pages. Could also include highlights from the "things to do" page or apps '''-[[User:zsotroav|zsotroav]]''' ''([[User_talk:zsotroav|Cantact me here!]])'' @ 18:34, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

* [[Nintendo 3DS]]
* [[Wii U]]
* [[Nintendo Switch]]

=== "Things to do" pages ===

A simple page that someone new to homebrew/cfw can use to start doing something with their newly-hacked console.

* [[3DS:Things to do]]
* [[Wii U:Things to do]]
* {{WIP}} [[Switch:Things to do]]
* [[Wii:Things to do]]

=== Game pages ===

I think we should have pages for individual games with lists of mods, save editors, guides, and maybe other things.

I just picked a random assortment of some popular games. Any game with a mod, save editor, useful hacking guide, etc. can have its own page!

* [[3DS:Animal Crossing: New Leaf]]
* [[3DS:Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon X and Y]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Sun and Moon]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]
* [[3DS:Mario Kart 7]]
* [[Wii U:Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]
* [[Wii U:Mario Kart 8]]
* [[Switch:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]

=== Guides ===

Any sort of guides that could be useful, game-specific or not.

* [[Formatting an SD card/Windows]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/Mac]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/Linux]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/ChromeOS]] (may be useful since i've seen the occasional chromebook user in NH and r/3DS --[[User:Ihaveahax|ihaveahax]] ([[User talk:Ihaveahax|talk]]) 11:15, 31 October 2022 (UTC))
* [[3DS:Keyboard Unbrick]]
* [[3DS:Export saves]]
* [[3DS:System Transfer]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Target has CFW]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Target is stock]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Manual]] (to copy over all the files manually, and maybe also NNID/eShop)
* [[3DS:GBA games]]
* [[3DS:Setting game locales]]
* [[3DS:Remove outlines in Pokémon games]]
* [[3DS:Virtual Console]]

=== Move from main guides ===

Some pages could be moved from the main guides to here.

Don't actually delete these from the main guide until we think this site is ready.

* [[3dsguide:formatting-sd-(windows)]] - {{done}} [[Formatting an SD card/Windows]]
* [[3dsguide:formatting-sd-(mac)]] - {{done}} [[Formatting an SD card/Mac]]
* [[3dsguide:formatting-sd-(linux)]] - {{done}} [[Formatting an SD card/Linux]]
* [[3dsguide:file-extensions-(windows)]] - {{done}} [[File Extensions on Windows]]
* [[3dsguide:move-emunand]] - {{done}} [[3DS:Move EmuNAND]]
* [[3dsguide:f3-(linux)]] - {{done}} [[Checking SD card integrity/Linux]]
* [[3dsguide:f3x-(mac)]] - {{done}} [[Checking SD card integrity/Mac/legacy]]
* [[3dsguide:f3xswift-(mac)]] - {{done}} [[Checking SD card integrity/Mac]]
* [[3dsguide:h2testw-(windows)]] - {{done}} [[Checking SD card integrity/Windows]]
* [[3dsguide:godmode9-usage]] - {{done}} [[3DS:GodMode9 Usage]]
* [[3dsguide:dumping-titles-and-game-cartridges]] - {{Done}} [[3DS:Dump titles and game cartridges]]
* [[3dsguide:ctrtransfer]] - {{Done}} [[3DS:CTRTransfer]]

* [[switchguide:extras/theming]] [[Switch:Theming]] - {{WIP}}
* [[switchguide:extras/save_management]] [[Switch:Save Management]] - {{Done}}
* [[switchguide:extras/game_modding]] [[Switch:Game Modding]]
* [[switchguide:extras/cheats]] [[Switch:Cheats]] - {{Done}} (could say where/how to get cheat files ie what to put in buildid.txt?)

=== Move from pins in NH channels ===

A lot of useful stuff is probably stored in pins in the NH server. Those should be put here for ease of access.

* [[Switch:Transferring_Saves]] {{Done}} Transferring save data from emuMMC to sysMMC
* [[Switch:Gamecard Reader]] {{Done}} Gamecard reader firmware info page
* [[Switch:zadig]] Manually install libusbk for TegraRCMGui

=== Move from Kurisu commands ===

Some stuff that's currently in {{gh|nh-server/Kurisu}} could also be put here. Look inside {{gh|nh-server/Kurisu/tree/main/cogs/assistance-cmds|assistance-cmds}}. Like in the next section, any external guides probably could not just be copied here since we may not have permission to do that.

* Checking 3DS local IP
** [[3DS:Check local IP address]] {{Done}}
* Moving to a new SD card
** [[3DS:Moving SD Cards]] {{Done}}
* [[Wii_U:VC_Extract]] {{done}}
* [[Switch:exFAT]] - {{Done}}
* Error codes
** [[3DS:Error codes]] {{WIP}} (there's a few codes this has that Kurisu doesn't, but quite a few Kurisu does but this doesn't. we might be best off pulling from Kurisu's codebase for most of the remainder, marking as done, and just adding any others we find at will? [[User:StarlitSkies|StarlitSkies]] ([[User talk:StarlitSkies|talk]]) 04:05, 23 January 2023 (UTC))

===General concepts===
{{ombox
| type = speedy
| text = '''Reminder: DO NOT COPY GUIDES FROM OTHER SITES.''' Those who wrote the original guides own them and it is up to them if they want to post them anywhere else. (If the license is compatible with [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ CC BY-SA 4.0] then you are allowed to put it here with attribution.)
}}

Ideas for new pages. Some of these pages already have established guides, which can be used as a reference (but may not be copied directly, depending on permission, and some of them may be out of date anyway)

I think it might be of some use to add a "piracy" page, explaining what piracy is, how to determine if you are a pirate, and why we don't allow piracy talk, sorta like https://3ds.eiphax.tech/piracy, but with some more detail on how it applies to the wiki and Discord server in specific.

== Translations==

The pages being moved from 3ds.hacks.guide or wiiu.hacks.guide might have translations that need to be brought over.

Also pages on how to translate stuff on this wiki need to be made too.

==Technical ==

*Create lots of redirect pages. Someone will probably search things like "Pokemon x" or "Fix black screen" so we should create those pages that point to the right place. This needs some automation too.

* Make it more obvious that a revision other than the main one is being viewed. Preferably with a MediaWiki hook but JS will probably do.

** [[Hacks Guide Wiki:Game pages]]
* Create a game template page, so anyone who wants to make a page for a specific game knows where to start.
** [[Hacks Guide Wiki:Game pages/Template]] (maybe even make it a preload-able template?)
* A manual of style for guides, information pages, game pages (though that one already kinda exists).

Hacks Guide Wiki:To-do list

2024-08-18T10:24:59Z

3dscartridges: /* "Things to do" pages */

{{shortcut|HGW:TTD|HGW:TODO}}{{TOC right}}This is where we can keep a list of things that should be done, such as pages that need creating or adding to.

{{ombox|text=For organizational purposes, please mark items based on their status (and link them if applicable):
* {{Done}} <code>{{tl|Done}}</code>
* {{WIP}} <code>{{tl|WIP}}</code>
* {{Skip}} <code>{{tl|Skip}}</code>}}

== Pages ==

=== Organization ===

Once this wiki has "enough content" (whatever that means), before we can start advertising it publicly, we need better page organzation.

* Index/contents pages? Generally anything someone might want or need to do with hacks. Save backup and restore, transfers, troubleshooting, informational pages, etc. Similar to [[3DS:Things to do]] but that one is more like "here's a list of cool things you can do".

=== Main Page ===

A nice [[Main Page]] should be made. It should include a simple explanation of what homebrew is, then links to the main guides, the "Things to do" pages, and maybe troubleshooting.

A search box could be put here too.

<pre><nowiki>
<inputbox>
type=search
placeholder=Placeholder text here...
width=70
</inputbox>
</nowiki></pre>

=== Console introductions ===

These pages should be like an all-around intro to things about hacking a console. Links to guides on getting hacks set up, links to the "things to do", maybe troubleshooting for when things go wrong...

I'm not sure how necessary these pages are though, if there isn't enough stuff that can't also go on the "Things to do" pages. [[User:Ihaveahax|ihaveahax]] ([[User talk:Ihaveahax|talk]]) 02:52, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
: In my opinion they should be the main hub for everything related to the console itself with quick and easy access/links to the most important articles and console related help pages. Could also include highlights from the "things to do" page or apps '''-[[User:zsotroav|zsotroav]]''' ''([[User_talk:zsotroav|Cantact me here!]])'' @ 18:34, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

* [[Nintendo 3DS]]
* [[Wii U]]
* [[Nintendo Switch]]

=== "Things to do" pages ===

A simple page that someone new to homebrew/cfw can use to start doing something with their newly-hacked console.

* [[3DS:Things to do]]
* [[Wii U:Things to do]]
* [[Switch:Things to do]] <nowiki>{{WIP}}</nowiki>
* [[Wii:Things to do]]

=== Game pages ===

I think we should have pages for individual games with lists of mods, save editors, guides, and maybe other things.

I just picked a random assortment of some popular games. Any game with a mod, save editor, useful hacking guide, etc. can have its own page!

* [[3DS:Animal Crossing: New Leaf]]
* [[3DS:Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon X and Y]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Sun and Moon]]
* [[3DS:Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]
* [[3DS:Mario Kart 7]]
* [[Wii U:Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]
* [[Wii U:Mario Kart 8]]
* [[Switch:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]

=== Guides ===

Any sort of guides that could be useful, game-specific or not.

* [[Formatting an SD card/Windows]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/Mac]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/Linux]]
* [[Formatting an SD card/ChromeOS]] (may be useful since i've seen the occasional chromebook user in NH and r/3DS --[[User:Ihaveahax|ihaveahax]] ([[User talk:Ihaveahax|talk]]) 11:15, 31 October 2022 (UTC))
* [[3DS:Keyboard Unbrick]]
* [[3DS:Export saves]]
* [[3DS:System Transfer]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Target has CFW]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Target is stock]]
** {{WIP}} [[3DS:System Transfer/Manual]] (to copy over all the files manually, and maybe also NNID/eShop)
* [[3DS:GBA games]]
* [[3DS:Setting game locales]]
* [[3DS:Remove outlines in Pokémon games]]
* [[3DS:Virtual Console]]

=== Move from main guides ===

Some pages could be moved from the main guides to here.

Don't actually delete these from the main guide until we think this site is ready.

* [[3dsguide:formatting-sd-(windows)]] - {{done}} [[Formatting an SD card/Windows]]
* [[3dsguide:formatting-sd-(mac)]] - {{done}} [[Formatting an SD card/Mac]]
* [[3dsguide:formatting-sd-(linux)]] - {{done}} [[Formatting an SD card/Linux]]

* [[3dsguide:ctrtransfer]] - {{Done}} [[3DS:CTRTransfer]]

* [[switchguide:extras/theming]] [[Switch:Theming]] - {{WIP}}
* [[switchguide:extras/save_management]] [[Switch:Save Management]] - {{Done}}
* [[switchguide:extras/game_modding]] [[Switch:Game Modding]]
* [[switchguide:extras/cheats]] [[Switch:Cheats]] - {{Done}} (could say where/how to get cheat files ie what to put in buildid.txt?)

=== Move from pins in NH channels ===

A lot of useful stuff is probably stored in pins in the NH server. Those should be put here for ease of access.

* [[Switch:Transferring_Saves]] {{Done}} Transferring save data from emuMMC to sysMMC
* [[Switch:Gamecard Reader]] {{Done}} Gamecard reader firmware info page
* [[Switch:zadig]] Manually install libusbk for TegraRCMGui

=== Move from Kurisu commands ===

Some stuff that's currently in {{gh|nh-server/Kurisu}} could also be put here. Look inside {{gh|nh-server/Kurisu/tree/main/cogs/assistance-cmds|assistance-cmds}}. Like in the next section, any external guides probably could not just be copied here since we may not have permission to do that.

* Checking 3DS local IP
** [[3DS:Check local IP address]] {{Done}}
* Moving to a new SD card
** [[3DS:Moving SD Cards]] {{Done}}
* [[Wii_U:VC_Extract]] {{done}}
* [[Switch:exFAT]] - {{Done}}
* Error codes
** [[3DS:Error codes]] {{WIP}} (there's a few codes this has that Kurisu doesn't, but quite a few Kurisu does but this doesn't. we might be best off pulling from Kurisu's codebase for most of the remainder, marking as done, and just adding any others we find at will? [[User:StarlitSkies|StarlitSkies]] ([[User talk:StarlitSkies|talk]]) 04:05, 23 January 2023 (UTC))

===General concepts===
{{ombox
| type = speedy
| text = '''Reminder: DO NOT COPY GUIDES FROM OTHER SITES.''' Those who wrote the original guides own them and it is up to them if they want to post them anywhere else. (If the license is compatible with [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ CC BY-SA 4.0] then you are allowed to put it here with attribution.)
}}

Ideas for new pages. Some of these pages already have established guides, which can be used as a reference (but may not be copied directly, depending on permission, and some of them may be out of date anyway)

I think it might be of some use to add a "piracy" page, explaining what piracy is, how to determine if you are a pirate, and why we don't allow piracy talk, sorta like https://3ds.eiphax.tech/piracy, but with some more detail on how it applies to the wiki and Discord server in specific.

Switch:Things to do

2024-08-18T10:13:40Z

3dscartridges: Some information on what you can do with your newly hacked switch. A lot of information is currently missing due to the lack of pages on them, or me (3dscartridges) not knowing about them.

{{Page WIP}}
Finally got homebrew / custom firmware on your Switch? Here's a list of common things you can do with it.

Most, if not all of the homebrew listed should be on hbappstore (Homebrew App Store)
== Custom firmware basics ==
Custom firmware has a bunch of useful settings and menus, see how to use them here!

● [https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/blob/master/docs/features/configurations.md Atmosphère configuration]
== Customization ==
● [https://switch.hacks.guide/homebrew/nxtheme-installer/ Custom themes] - a way of adding some more personality to your home menu
== Emulation ==
'''Later on, this section will probably be turned into a standalone page.'''

● [https://www.retroarch.com/ RetroArch] - a all-in-one emulator.

'''Standalone emulators''' ''not a complete list, just a quick overview'':

● [https://mgba.io/ mGBA] - Game Boy Advance

● [https://www.snes9x.com/ Snes9x] - SNES

● [https://hb-app.store/switch/NooDS NooDS] - DS

● [https://hb-app.store/switch/pNES pNES] - NES

● If you have installed Android on your Switch, then you can also use [https://dolphin-emu.org/ Dolphin] for Wii / GCN games. Be aware that performance may not be the best, it varies from game to game.
== Game mods, save editing, cheats ==
● [https://github.com/J-D-K/JKSV JKSV] - save manager, actively maintained

● [https://www.ctgpdx.com/home CTGP Deluxe] - Mario Kart 8 Deluxe mod featuring 56 new tracks and 14 new cups

● [https://switch.hacks.guide/homebrew/edizon/ EdiZon] - Cheats. Don't use online, you will be ruining the experience of other players and they will get you banned.
== Extras ==
● [https://github.com/suchmememanyskill/TegraExplorer TegraExplorer] - browse the storage of your Switch

● [https://switch.hacks.guide/extras/installing_android/ Switchroot Android] - install Android on your Switch

● [https://switch.hacks.guide/extras/installing_linux/ Switchroot Linux] - install Linux on your Switch

● [https://switch.hacks.guide/homebrew/sys-clk/ sys-clk] - safe overclocking tool. Only use the official version of sys-clk, any modification that remove the limits are dangerous and should be avoided.

● [https://switch.hacks.guide/homebrew/tesla-menu/ Tesla-Menu] - A overlay menu comparable to the Rosalina menu on the 3DS.

● [https://switch.hacks.guide/extras/transfer_sd/ Transferring SD cards]
