WIP Atmosphere (Switch CFW) updater.

Note: This (and all other updaters) will no longer work on ams ver 0.15.0 or higher.

Installation

Move the .nro onto you Nintendo Switch SD card inside the folder /switch/atmosphere-updater.

User guide

The application has 5 main options.

Full Atmosphere Update:

• Downloads the latest Atmosphere release and installs everything from that release.

Update Atmosphere, not overwriting .ini files:

• Downloads the latest Atmosphere release and installs everything from that release ignoring .ini files.
• This option will still install any missing .ini files, ensuring that the update will function correctly.

Update Hekate:

• Installs the latest release of Hekate.
• Option to install latest Atmosphere as well, when selecting update Hekate.
• If option to update Hekate + Atmosphere is selected, the new fusee-primary.bin is copied to /bootloader/payloads/fusee-primary.bin.
• Replaces /atmosphere/reboot_payload.bin with the new Hekate payload.
• Copies new Hekate payload to /bootloader/update.bin.

Update App:

• Downloads the latest version of this app straight from GitHub.
• Deletes the previous old version.

Reboot (reboot to payload):

• Reboots the switch, loading the payload from /atmosphere/reboot_payload.bin.
• This is recommended after install Atmosphere.
• Updating Atmosphere / Hekate automatically includes the needed reboot_payload.bin.
