Would it be possible to add support for the stationary use of the Nintendo Switch? (For the Reboot into Payload thing)
Thanks

if you warmboot from atmosphere into argon-nx and then load coreboot it breaks video card acceleration. This is a simple patch, especially since you are using the hekate init code, and ctcaer has already fixed it in hekate. The fix can be found here: CTCaer/hekate@4f2bbbf

I would prefer to use this as a warmboot payload, but would like to have it boot everything I use on my switch.

Add new logo for Lockpick_RCM. See attached zip for a Lockpick_RCM.bmp file.
Lockpick_RCM.zip

If we can find a way to support boot from ID, and fixing the CPU on from linux warmboot that would be nice. Relevant hekate commits can be found here:
CTCaer/hekate@31db273
CTCaer/hekate@6cc0711
CTCaer/hekate@8045d79
CTCaer/hekate@c1e0729 (some of this is needed, to fix define names, and some of it isnt)

Since this doesnt include Nyx, I left out the patches there, but if you could add support for these it does bring argon-nx back as a replacement to hekate for reboot2payload in android, and linux. Not exactly sure how it would be implemented there, since you are just chainloding, and there is no ini file to set ID in(At least last time I used Argon-nx)

I was curious, do you think it'd be possible to allow the unmounting of the SD card in order to add files then remount and launch a payload? At the current moment, if you, on purpose or by accident, remove the SD card and put it back in, then attempt to launch a payload it will fail.

This handy python script will create a boot.dat for using sx payload launchers Would be easy to add a boot.dat created with it to each release. simply rename argon-nx to payload.bin and run the script with python and ittl give you a boot.dat made from your payload
https://gist.github.com/fennectech/146ea5047a30257e454a2cd907c00a5a

Here is an example boot.dat created with it (latest argon-NX)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/477902545646256128/576661496768102413/boot.dat

Not sure if it will be hard for you to implement or not, if it is dont worry about it but I was wondering if it would be possible to have a text file in the argon directory where you can specify the x and y co-ordinates of each logo and maybe the size to draw them at aswell

ArgonNX's SXOS launcher appears to look for SX's \boot.dat. Unfortunately that creates a problem.
With SX OS installed as \boot.dat, I can only boot to SX OS, then have to go through its payload launcher to kick off ArgonNX.
With SX Gear installed as \boot.dat, I can run ArgonNX directly as \payload.bin, but then it can't run SX OS, because the \boot.dat is the SX Gear version.

It would be awesome if ArgonNX could look for some file other than \boot.dat to launch SX OS. That way I can boot straight into ArgonNX and still be able to use SX OS. If I have to boot into SX OS and use its payload launcher first, there's little reason to use ArgonNX.

Rebooting to OFW is showing a black screen, and crashing the console. Changin panic code to this:

void panic_alt(u32 val)
{
// Set panic code.
PMC(APBDEV_PMC_SCRATCH200) = val;
//PMC(APBDEV_PMC_CRYPTO_OP) = 1; // Disable SE.
TMR(TIMER_WDT4_UNLOCK_PATTERN) = TIMER_MAGIC_PTRN;
TMR(TIMER_TMR9_TMR_PTV) = TIMER_EN | TIMER_PER_EN;
TMR(TIMER_WDT4_CONFIG) = TIMER_SRC(9) | TIMER_PER(1) | TIMER_PMCRESET_EN;
TMR(TIMER_WDT4_COMMAND) = TIMER_START_CNT;
while (1)
;
}

I think in your code, when you execute code 'check_and_display_panic();' this is not working properly, as this is what's causing the issue for me. The code I posted above works though.

Im using sxgear.
the problem is the boot.dat is opening the payload named payload.bin which is 4 me argon nx.
if i try now to start sxos the boot.dat will start argon.nx.

it would be awesome if the sxos.bin would start sxos.dat. So could i use the sxgear to launch argon and with argon sxos

Hi.
i'm using R4 trincket, last atmosphere and hekate - CTCaer mod v5.1.1 & Nyx v0.8.4
no matter if i click over atmosphere icon or hekate, it launches atmosphere only.
i have all the files set for bootloader and the new hekate_ctcaer_5.1.1.bin file on /argon/payloads
properly renamed to hekate.bin.

Now the color used for transparency is #ff00ff, so when render bmp logos the #ff00ff color is omitted. Even though, wierd pink pixels are rendered...
Maybe using approches like distance between colors will help..

Would it be possible to support other formats than BMP ARGB 32 bits?
It's a pain to find a good tool that will natively export properly for it.

Thanks :)

haven't used it yet but the white blinds my eyes, dark mode would be so op, or custom backgrounds.

I had to delete my entire full 400gb SD card because I copied your “Nintendo folder” on accident to avoid this with others please remove in a new revised version

When the payloads are shown, they are displayed with an ASCII sort, based on letters capitalization of the payloads (so Kosmos or ReiNX are placed before hekate. It would be better to have a fixed sort (not based on cap) or the possibility to edit the order based on user preferences

Could you please make this excellent tool Mariko compatible?

Handle payload selection using touch screen

The ReiNX splash screen got changed in the latest version. The logo in the "sd-files.zip" is outdated.

Here's a mod to stop that happening:

u32 i = 0;
u32 j = 0;
/* For each payload generate its logo, its name and its path */
while(j <= 7 && payloads[i * 256]) //don't show more than 8 icons
{
    char* payload_path = (char*)malloc(256);
    payload_full_path(&payloads[i * 256], payload_path);
    //payload_full_path_2(&payloads[i * 256], payload_path);
    
    char payload_logo[256];
    payload_logo_path(&payloads[i * 256], payload_logo);

    u32 row = i / COLUMNS;
    u32 col = i % COLUMNS;
    u32 x = g_gfx_ctxt.width / COLUMNS * col + MARGIN_LEFT;
    u32 y = g_gfx_ctxt.height / ROWS * row + MARGIN_TOP + (row == 0 ? 30 : -60);

    const char* payload_wo_bin = str_replace(&payloads[i * 256], ".bin", "");
    gui_menu_append_entry(menu, 
        gui_create_menu_entry(payload_wo_bin,
                                sd_file_read(payload_logo), 
                                x, y,
                                200, 200,
                                (int (*)(void *))launch_payload, (void*)payload_path));
    i++;
    j++;
}

The "Power Off" options says "Power of". Just a typo, but I didn't see anyone else report it so I thought I'd let you know.

This file in ArgonNX v0.3 is still horizontal and needs to be rotated 90 degrees or the background will be all black.

argon-nx-master\sd-card-example\argon\background.bmp

v1.0-alpha does not boot via tegrarcmGUI or a dongle. However, it works via Reboot to Payload. (If this file is renamed to reboot_payload.bin in the atmosphere folder)

Just for ease of use, include a default icon, and maybe a icon for the most popular bins.

It would be nice for using bootlogos like the old school bios ones :)

Se podría adaptar la versión "ArgonNX v1.1" para que funcione en el Dongle R4S?

The version "ArgonNX v1.1" could be adapted to work in the Dongle R4S?

as the title says no icons are being shown when argon nx payloa dis being injected for some reason. i tried multiple times and no use

Change current gfx font to better one

I've updated a lot of the code and graphics in this, if you want I've posted the source code here:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/argon-nx-sx-mod.534886/

It's got quite a few changes from this version - but works pretty well, and has lots of code fixes, mods.

Using the latest devkit pro/lib-nx. I am using ubuntu 20.04 as O/S to compile on. Also am able to compile other up to date switch software without issues.

Clean install from your git, and I am able to compile up until the code tries to make an elf file, then I get this error:

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [Makefile:70: build/argon-nx/argon-nx.elf] Error 1

Maybe something to do with line70 ?

After screenshots of the different screens have been created, no payload can be started anymore. A message appears that a certain file can not be found.
Only by a reboot, the selection is possible again.

This is for people like me using modchips/injectors and have to convert the payload to uf2 files every time there is an update. CTCaer addressed this issue by having hekate check for an update.bin first and booting that instead if it's present.

There was an option in hekate for this, but ctcaer decided when l4t-ubuntu was released, that this becomes more of a priority, so it is now applied on every boot to hekate, and removed from the menu. I dont want to have to boot to hekate to boot to atmosphere, and not have the console die when it is at 40% lol.

attached is a patch file to fix the issue.
argon-nx-linux-fix-battery-desync-on-boot.txt

Hello,

When the "sys" or "bmp" files are missing, Argon will throw an error since it can't load the GUI. I was hoping, instead of having to use the old alpha build to be able to have it directly boot the "payload.bin" no GUI/splashes used, thus requiring no other files.

Using v0.1 fixes this, but I'm not sure what fixes I could be missing

I'm quite bad with arts.
I am looking for someone who is capable of creating a logo and a splashscreen

Could you change the transparent color to something not potentially as used for shadows as the grey you currently chose? Maybe some bright purple or green would be best :)

Thank you!
