Quick Payload Switcher for A9LH and B9S. It can switch between payloads (to switch between CFWs), rename arm9loaderhax.bin to arm9loaderhax_si.bin and vice-versa. This tool, a Lua script that runs on [[Lua Player Plus 3DS|LPP-3DS]] by Rinnegatamante, is used to quickly switch between A9LH payloads, for those who like using multiple CFWs. It is also capable of renaming the current payload to toggle screeninit/noscreeninit behaviour on a compatible A9LH installation (supports up to 5 alternate payloads). ==Installation== First, install the CIA using FBI/NASA/DevMenu. If original payload is named "/arm9loaderhax.bin", "/arm9loaderhax_si.bin" or "boot.firm": * Name your secondary payload (the one you want to quickswitch) "/arm9loaderhax_switch.bin". * Run the app whenever you want to switch, and reboot the console. If original payload is named something else (e.g. /banana.bin): * Name your secondary payload (the one you want to quickswitch) "/arm9loaderhax_switch.bin". * Create a file named "/payloadswitch-in.cfg" and write the path there (e.g. /banana.bin). * Run the app whenever you want to switch, and reboot the console. If you want to switch with more payloads: * Name your other payloads "/arm9loaderhax_switch_up.bin", "/arm9loaderhax_switch_down.bin", "/arm9loaderhax_switch_left.bin" and/or "/arm9loaderhax_switch_right.bin". * This applies even if the user has B9S and not A9LH, name the other payloads like this. * To switch to them, just hold the correct DPAD button while starting the application. This will make the app replace your main payload (e.g. /arm9loaderhax.bin) with that payload (e.g. /arm9loadrhax_switch_up.bin). If the secondary payload is named something else (e.g. /somepayload.bin): * Create a file named "/payloadswitch-out.cfg" and write the path there (e.g. /somepayload.bin). * Use the app. For information about renaming the payloads for screeninit/noscreeninit behaviour, see Mode 1/2/3. ==User guide== ===Mode 1 - Normal=== To use this mode (which by default only switches between payloads to boot), simply delete any file named /payloadswitch-mode.cfg , or make sure that file has "normal" written, without the quotes. While in normal mode, if you want to toggle between noscreeninit/screeninit mode (on an A9LH installation that supports it, like Aurora Wright's latest A9LH, which screeninit/noscreeninit merged and relies on filenames to run in one mode or the other), hold R and X while starting this app. R and X will, just for that one time, use Alternate mode. If you wish to rename the payload and switch payloads, hold Y and X instead to use "Mixed" mode. ===Mode 2 - Alternate=== To use this mode (which by default only renames the payload as arm9loaderhax.bin<>arm9loaderhax_si.bin), create a file named /payloadswitch-mode.cfg , and write "alternate" in it, without the quotes. While in alternate mode, if you want to use Normal mode once (to switch between CFWs), hold R and X while starting the app. If you want to use "Mixed" behaviour, which will switch and rename the payload, hold Y and X instead. ===Mode 3 - Mixed=== Mixed mode is both Normal and Alternate. It will always rename and switch the payload to boot. To use it, create a file named /payloadswitch-mode.cfg and write "mixed" in it, without the quotes. While in mixed mode, if you wish to use Normal mode, hold R and X while starting the app. ==Controls== R+X (while starting the app) - Switch from Normal to Alternate (once), Switch from Alternate to Normal (once), Switch from Mixed to Normal Y+X (while starting the app) - Switch from Alternate to Mixed Hold L (while running) - Stop the console from rebooting (v1.1 or later) ==Changelog== '''v1.3''' * Now supports up to 5 alternate payloads. '''v1.2.1''' * Minor release, to change the unique ID to 0xA541. '''v1.2''' * Third release. Now supports 3 modes of operation (Normal, Alternate and Mixed). '''v1.1''' * Second release. Console reboots automatically unless ""L"" is pressed. '''v1''' * Initial release, seems stable. ==External links== * GitHub - https://github.com/gnmmarechal/payloadswitch * GBAtemp - https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-quick-payload-switcher.432358 [[Category:Support the author]]
