Hekate CTCaer Mod 5.3.0/Nyx 0.9.2

15 juin 202023 décembre 2020 badablek Atmosphère, ctcaer, hekate, payload

Alors que la scène Switch semble endormie en ce moment, Hekate fait peau neuve avec une nouvelle mise à jour. Celle-ci s’améliore en supportant totalement Exosphère 2, tout en maintenant la compatibilité avec la précédente version. Elle se veut par ailleurs plus stable et rapide, avec notamment la correction de bugs au niveau du chargement des kip (qui pouvait survenir dans certains cas bien particuliers) et l’amélioration du temps de démarrage de 500ms (toujours ça de pris). Le Bootloader Development Kit (BDK pour les intimes) fait également son apparition, avec une réorganisation de la structure interne du code source de Hekate, permettant ainsi des modifications/adaptations simplifiées pour les développeurs en herbe.

Making sure that this is set, screenshots will now have proper date and time on the names.
Add bigger deadzone for joycon virtual mouse.
Reduce idle power draw
Add BIS key generation and simple CAL0 info
And many more fixes.

Bootloader Development Kit (BDK)

This release also introduces the BDK. The whole structure of hekate changed so it’s easy to do code changes to drivers and utils.
This allows the transformation of hekate to anything and makes porting to other Tegra X1/X1+ easier.
For now it’s used for hekate, Nyx and modules. As this is just the start, it will improve more later down the road.
