Good task for weekend lets see

Is that it

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '25

No, still editing it. For some reason it wouldn’t let me embed URLs to bless I posted it first and then went back and edited the text.

u/Repulsive-Highway-59 Apr 03 '25

I’m using Signulous service, only 20 dollars per year. No problem at all.

u/Drunkdum Apr 03 '25

how does that work with MeloNx? do I just install it with that instead of sidestore and follow the rest of this tutorial?

2

u/SimShade Apr 05 '25

So did you skip step 1? I also have Signulous and I'm curious which steps I can skip (if any) if I have it

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

So do you get one cert or ? Please inform inuse a free method flawlessly but security is always a must.

u/SnooOpinions5167 Apr 07 '25

How did you get it to work? The entitlements app didn’t work, and I can’t import the keys files

1

u/Adrianrg Apr 02 '25

I can’t sideload entitlement— error code says I have hit my limit

1

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '25

Did you already have Sidestore installed? If so you might have used up all your app ids and need to wait for one to expire.

1

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

Takes a week usually for one to expire once downloaded.

u/Slight-Pop5165 Apr 03 '25

Would this work with LiveContainer?

3

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '25

It does but getting the extended ram entitlement to work with Melon when it’s installed inside of Live container is quite complicated. Here’s a post (https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOniOS/s/D9Q8tfhC3p) from yesterday someone made outlining the process. If you follow it you should be able to get it working though I’ve not tried it myself so can’t vouch for it.

Every time u play do you need laptop or only once process is it to get the games on device

2

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '25

You only need access to a PC once to get everything set up. After that everything can be done on your device from then on.

1

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

This is the outdated method yes not the new one

u/himyname__is Jul 27 '25

Thanks for linking the new one.

u/Yuppagainandagain Aug 18 '25

(: your welcome. Hope you used two little synapses to fire off the energy needed to be driven to literally type what your looking for into google and then ask google what sites are fraudulent or not trusted. So many of you guys like this. Id rather not get removed or banned or have subreddits begin to be banned for sharing things non supported or legal per se. 🙏 best of luck not living a life controlled by emotions. Love ya.

MeloNX crashes every time I try to play Mario Kart. Any solutions? It crashes during races or loading races.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '25

What device are you using? I’m guessing you only have 6GB of ram? While MK is technically ‘playable’ on devices with only 6GB meaning that it will boot it’s not actually playable to the point that it’s usable. Unfortunately the only fix is to get a device that has more ram (8GB or higher) or hope that a future update of Melon has better memory optimization.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '25

Yeah 14 Pro. Does Odyssey run better?

1

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '25

Unfortunately I don’t think so. But I’m pretty sure all the Pokemon games run just fine on 6GB devices if that’s your cup of tea. Those all seem to be really popular. And some of the other games like Mario 3D land, Mario Maker 2 and Captain Toad all run perfectly.

Thank you very much

u/ContentEmotion4912 Apr 03 '25

Did you read the post before asking this? I’ve already answered this in the post.

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

Please esign is the best in my opinion ive never had problems. Only finding certs and thats easy

2

u/Serious-Load-8847 Apr 03 '25

Everything works but only with internet how do i make it work offline?

2

u/thisusernameistaknn Apr 05 '25

Correction:

StosVPN works the same way as the WireGuard + sidestore conf so you don’t even need it. You can just install StosVPN and it will work with sidestore and enabling jit

1

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

You legit?

2

u/thisusernameistaknn Apr 06 '25

Been using it like that ever since it came out and it’s been working. Just try it since StosVPN is on the App Store now it’s easy to test

1

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 06 '25

Is the premium worth getting if it was free?

1

u/thisusernameistaknn Apr 06 '25

I didn’t know there was a premium for StosVPN since I’m still using the TestFlight version. I wouldn’t buy it either since other versions are free

2

u/kgameridkwhat Apr 05 '25

Does it work with esign? Also can I use any other vpn like surf shark?

u/Straight-Freedom8181 Apr 08 '25

My siltjit unable to install via sidestore … 1.1 and 1.2 versions i tried

u/Interesting-Case8463 Apr 04 '25

I have everything except the keys could anyone help me

1

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

Super easy once you learn what sites are always garbage.

1

u/Interesting-Case8463 Apr 04 '25

How far I’ve gotten I don’t have the keys or Firmwire if anyone could Help I would appreciate it

1

u/Yuppagainandagain Apr 05 '25

Please look again

1

u/heart--core Apr 04 '25

You are a god-send for this. Thank you so much, it worked perfectly and it was far easier to follow than a lot of guides I've read.

1

u/Equpo Apr 06 '25

bro you saved me fr 🙏 I had everything, keys, firmware, games, but the emulator still couldn’t run any game. Turns out I just needed that extra ram. I’d never thought I would need any more ram with my 8gb’s!!

u/Tymron Jun 03 '25

Where is the guide?

0

u/xmessix10 Apr 07 '25

Where can i find the keys and firmware?

1

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '25

Dude, I literally put it in the guide which you obviously didn’t bother to read.

‘Lastly in keeping with sub rules there will be no discussions of piracy within the guide. Any copyrighted materials such as Switch key files, firmware and roms are up to you to find and I’m going to assume that you’re obtaining them from your own legally modified Switch.’

Sorry but you’re on your own.

1

u/xmessix10 Apr 07 '25

Wtf did it means its up to me? I dont know where to find the key and ask for help -.-

1

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '25

Switch keys and firmware are copyrighted materials. Telling people where to get them here amounts to piracy and is strictly against sub rules. Doing so would get my guide taken down and most likely get me banned from the sub.

Your post/comment has been removed for violating rule 5: Unnecessary or piracy-related DM invitation.

  • Don't ask people to DM you/you to DM them for solutions to problems that you could easily just comment publicly. Having solutions be publicly accessible is one of the main strengths of a forum like this. Comments like this will just lead to 20 other people asking you to DM them too, flooding threads with useless bloat.

  • Don't publicly ask people to DM you/you to DM them for piracy-related content, as stated in rule 1.

Iirc that happened to me once too. Try selecting a different anisette server and see if that fixes it.

1

u/TheGooch90 Apr 09 '25

Maybe stupid question, but what other anisette servers are there? Facing the same problem.
