Citation

Hetake est un Custom Boot manager qui vous permet d'avoir différents paramètres de votre console comme le dump de la NAND, du BOOT2, de lancer un CFW via un payload depuis la carte SD. Il est compatible tout firmware/CFW et peut être utilisé même sans une carte SD.

Cette version tant attendu même si un peu tardive vient complétée la compatibilité avec le firmware 8.1.0 et annonce publiquement la sortie du NYX

Citation

NYX est une interface graphique qui vient complété l'ancien menu qui plus est customisable. Il apporte plus d'option avec plus de détails et aussi un menu pour la création de l'emuMMC (emuNAND). Le menu supporte aussi le mode tactile de l'écran de la Switch.

Introducing Nyx v0.8.0 :

Nyx is hekate's GUI. Packs many features, like FastFS, emuMMC manage, customization, etc.

Look below for more.

8.1.0 support

emuMMC support

It supports disabling it by boot entry (emummc_force_disable=1), stock (not all fw ver support it) and many more.

Works with SD raw partition and SD file based. (SD file based is extremely slow. Wait for FastFS 4 emuMMC).

This version can sanely shutdown and also supports more SD cards than before.

Thanks to a collab with @m4xw , @SciresM, @hexkyz.

Supercharged boot times

Even with emuMMC or kip1 patching, it's faster than before.

Supercharged Backup/Restore with FastFS (Nyx only)

Backup and Restore is now orders of magnitudes faster.

Some examples (measured on a U3 SD): No verif: 9min, Sparse: 15min, etc. Even Full with hashes is extremely faster.

External KIP1 patching support

Now non-important patches reside outside of hekate binary. For now this can only patch KIPs defined in hekate's code, with whatever new patches. Next versions will support other KIPs.

Many bugfixes

Snappy and fluid GUI w/ touch support

Yes! This runs on BPMP!

All classic launch options are there

emuMMC manage

Change between raw partition emuMMCs and SD file based ones easily.

Create file based or raw partition based from eMMC via the Create button.

You can also restore a backup directly to sd partition via the Restore option in tools (outside of emuMMC), AFTER you turned ON SD emuMMC Raw Partition.

Migrate other types of emunand (raw partition or sd file), repair existing raw partition configurations, or migrate a backup (outside of restore folder), to sd file based.

Everything is currently made to protect Linux partitions.

Additionally, the raw partition based is done in 16MB offset, so it can protected from quick formats.

All Info and Tools are now supercharged

Dump individual kips from eMMC, see detailed info about fuses, do backups and restores way faster, etc.

Customization support

Custom icons for boot entries and also a background is supported. (Check readme for how to use them).

Many additions in automation. For example, Nyx will automatically dump pkg1/2 after a sept run.

Screenshot support. Touch the screen with 3 fingers (no need for swipe).

And many many more smaller and bigger features.

NOTE: The folders in emuMMC now hold nyx configurations. file_based and raw_based. The first tells it that it's a file based one and the other holds the sector of that emuMMC.

NOTE2: This changelog will be updated with missing info.
