Awoo-Installer VS nut

Heyyy yo use Awoo Installer, it’s fast it’s clean always up to date, and the best of all it has anime tities built in !!! https://github.com/Huntereb/Awoo-Installer

I know most people here swear by DBI but I have never had it work for me. I used awoo https://github.com/Huntereb/Awoo-Installer on my switch and nsusbloader https://github.com/developersu/ns-usbloader on my PC and they have worked flawlessly for installing all my backups from my computer's HDD. If DBI is giving you trouble maybe try a different installer?

Update: Am now using the Awoo method to install wirelessly with NS-loader on PC and its progressing the install well over 40 percent so far. Maybe the problem was with DBI being on applet mode? I cant remember if that was my mistake earlier. I'll let you know if that XCI ended up legit or not.

That's kind of a broad question. Is the switch already modified and on a recent firmware version? Updating both the software you use for the hacked Switch (like Atmosphere) and updating your firmware are the first things that need to be done. Then it's a matter of installing the game in a way that works for you. Personally I used this Switch app called Awoo combined with NS-USBloader on my PC to easily transfer and install the game over my home connection since I couldn't copy a file that large onto my microSD.

There's no shop but you can use awoo with ns-usbloader

For .nsp and .xci files that you moved from your pc to your switch sd card, you can use an installer like tinfoil (however I prefer awoo installer) to install them as apps on the switch. You might also need to split them into 4gb sections in order to move them to your sd card because of fat32 restrictions. Just search for a guide on splitting nsp files if that's what you want to do.

As the other person said, use a combo like Awoo + NSUSBLoader or DBI installer.

Yep same, easy/quick install over USB: https://github.com/blawar/nut/releases

It isn't a piracy tool it is a service, they have to do security step to prevent bot making their server go to oblivion. If you want to bypass this you can simply download games via torrent and use either nut or Ownfoil.

The software used for USB installs is also fully open source (it's python) and you can actually skip using it since tinfoil also supports MTP installs: https://github.com/blawar/nut

You can use nut https://github.com/blawar/nut and follow the nut usb install section from rentry

I recommend using NUT with Tinfoil: https://github.com/blawar/nut It does it all and more pretty seamlessly and it’s what Tinfoil officially supports.

Think you can use NUT https://github.com/blawar/nut to host game files on a network and manually add a link in tinfoil to the NUT server.

I installed nut https://github.com/blawar/nut and added a couple of nsp games and they show up in the files list after a scan. I can even open up the server in chrome via http and it shows the games in the list.
