Hey y'all! Fixed the link to ARCropolis in the description. Be sure to always download the latest release! Also if you do update ARCropolis, it is likely you will also need to update the hekate payload. You do that by download the latest pack of SDsetup.com!
pls pls help me! I've successfully installed Arcadia but when i load it up i get a message that say's "ARCropolis config file not detected! Please run Smash Ultimate with Arcropolis set up!" I merged the arcropolis atmosphere folder with the atmosphere folder on the root of my SD card as instructed and have the .nro, but it still doesn't work... Any ideas? Thank you
i recommend watching manitos smash mod tutorial. i followed his instructions and was able to mod my switch. love the videos, enjoy hacking your switch :)
Hey y'all, if you use Mac, use this link to download fusee-launcher instead of Tegra to send payloads into your switch! There is also a guide on how to use it. Fusee Launcher > github.com/Qyriad/fusee-launcher Guide > switch.homebrew.guide/gettingstarted/checkingrcm.html
Tank from Left 4 Dead on DK, Hugh Neutron on Little Mac, Bully Maguire on Joker, Shaggy on Captain Falcon, Jotaro Kujo on Terry, ERROR on Puff, Dank Deedede skin, PS1 Hagrid on K. Rool, and Mario in a wheelchair are just some of my favorite mods. All can be found on gamebanana. Quick note. You don't have to ever remove your sd card from your switch to add mods. Keep your switch sleeping, and boot to payload and find "usb tools". You can just plug in your switch to your computer and add the mods in that way. You don't have to use that tegrarcm every time. I also highly recommend adding only a couple mods in at a time. Some mods like to discriminate other mods that SHOULD have nothing to do with them. Like "Mario Teaches Typing" on PacMan has conflicting problems with Bully Maguire on Joker. I haven't figured what was wrong yet, and gamebanana is sketchy when it comes to adblockers. I made an account, and it bricked the website for me.
Ugh..... It didn't work for me. I did everything right! Everything popped up and all... Just no ARCopolis thingy pop up when i boot up Smash.. PLEASE anyone help.. I think it has something to do with arcopolis. because it never showed me the merge, just move it.
I know I'm super late, but I really need some help! Everything goes perfectly until I get to the first hekate injection. My screen doesn't look quite like how it's supposed to after that. Instead of 5 or so lines, it just says "Failed to init or mount SD! Press any key." Then when I go on to the next step and inject hekate a second time, that initial hetake loading screen think shows up for like half a second and then goes to black. Any idea what's going on? I've been trying to get this for so long and just want it done.
To fix this, I went to Hekate's original download page, downloaded their source code. Added the bootloader directly to the sd root, so it merged with the other bootloader. That fixed my problem
I'm having a problem to when I get to the final step at 12:57 It doesn't boot up like normally, instead it takes me to the Hekate startup screen and my mods don't appear for the game, someone plz help.
Exactly my problem now, it does not boot up normally. It boots up the hacked menu and when I select the options he does earlier in the video it brings me to the normal switch screen. When I boot up smash I get no modded message and it also doesn’t take any extra time to load. When u go to the character select screen none of the the mods I installed are there. I have tried this process several time and it’s always the same. I just need confirmation that this still works
I love the tinfoil in the thumbnail, I love how..its foreshadowing the pain...and trauma....and sweat...and hard work you'll go through... *soft cry* Uh Anyways nice video tho 😃
it worked until doing the second tegra payload again at 09:55 when it was supposed to say Hekate on the switch it didnt on my switch and said "Failed to mount SD" , i saw you had more folders than i had on the sd card called "atmosphere" and "ultimate" so i downloaded it added it and now every time i try to inject any payload Tegra instantly crashes, and reopening it doesnt solve the problem :/ In the hekate menu it also says "Nyx is missing" but i dont know if thats the problem
@KroCal Games I just have 1 question.... if I were to do this and get some charecter skins and ui changes if I go online would other people see the changes? Or just me?
I followed every step perfectly My switch isnt patched, I download all current versions of the files I needed, formatted my microSD to Fat32, and injected all my payloads correctly. Im so confused (The only thing I think it is that's causing it not to work is when I do the 1st hakate payload I get 2 lines of text instead of 5)
Hi I am so confused after I download all the mods I want, and extract them into the mods folder I eject my sd card into the switch and enter rcm mode but where do I inject the payload from? He is explaining it way too fast around 12:58
In terms of save data? Is it a case of you just insert the modded SD card whenever you’d like to play smash bros. And for most other games you go back to the old one? Or do you just copy all of the contents of the modded SD card to the one you use anyway?
When I boot up smash bros it doesn't say anything about ARCopolis being installed and my mods don't appear even tho I followed all the steps. Any way I can fix this?
Same here, I did nothing wrong, let me know if there's a solution EDIT: I figured it out, you have to download the latest version of Skyline and put the exefs folder here: sd:/atmosphere/contents/01006A800016E000/ ARCropolis was supposed to do it on its own, but I think it broke after the update.
I followed all the steps and the mods just don't load. The only mod I got to work was the training mode mod from the homebrew store. I don't get any message for ARCopolis in Ultimate. i'm stumped and really don't know what else to try, every tutorial doesn't seem to work for me. edit: I figured it out, if this is your first time trying to run mods for Smash Ultimate like me? You have to enable your mods by selecting the eshop icon on the main menu of Smash Ultimate not the Switch's home menu. Then your game will reboot(it may take a while and will freeze but let it do its thing it's working), now you can enjoy your mods. I hope this helps out anyone else who's had the same problem like I did.
@@Kyselito no idea, it gave me a big headache trying to figure it out and all it was just that one thing. It seems like most tutorials forget that one important step.
My OLED was patched, but then remembered that i still have my 7 year old switch that is still running well surprisingly and tested if it was patched or not and it wasn't. now I just need a new MC card
Hi there. Need sum help here. So i just got back from trying to mod my switch for smash Bros and i feel like i just hit a wall near the end of a journey. I was going step by step with this tutorial. I even got the switch to recovery mode easily and consistently with ten foil and a joycon. All i'm missing is to get my smash mods too run. Cuz even after going through the tutorial twice now i'm still playing vanilla smash Bros. All of the mods i downloaded are mostly (if not only) skins for the characters and Visual changes to the menu. it's general only wifi friendly cosmetic mods that i'm trying to get working. What should i do?
Hello. I have everything in the video working, with the only exception being the mods in Smash Bros. Nothing I've added seems to load in the game. I have the new apps available in the Album, which means the micoSD is inserted, I'm not sure where the mix up here is. It's formatted to FAT32, but it's a 64GB, not sure if that matters. Based on those symptoms, what does this sound like? Do I have to run one of the applications in the album to load the mods from the SD card?
Sorry for the rapid posting. I held down power and home button for 30 seconds and it came on. I'm a little discouraged from doing smash mods at the moment, but I'm still interested in knowing if there's anything in particular that I did wrong? The Album lead to the screen with all of the apps. I had the ultimate folder at the root, then mods, both lowercase, no spaces, and I had two mods I wanted to try out. I never got the Smash update screen mentioned in this video upon loading smash with the microsd in the switch. This made me think Arcopolis was incorrect or something, so I re-installed it and replaced the files, then booted it up, no mods, turned it off, and I thought it was bricked since it wouldn't turn on and the computer didn't recognize it when it was plugged in. I'd like to know if there's anything else I can do to load mods. Or if there is something obvious I am missing
after pressing launch on the hetake screen in my switch it just says "No main boot entries found..." I need some advice on how I'm supposed to fix this
Hey everyone quick question. My switch is modded but when i boot up smash, the game isnt running the mods. i have acroplis and skyline on my sd card and still nothing. i tried updating my training mod yesterday and thats when everything went wrong. im not sure where the problem is
i followed all the steps word for word... everything went right until the final payload injection.. my switch didn't start up like normal, rather it had the Hekate screen again and when i hit lunch the mods were not in the game nor did i get the pop-up for "thank you for installing ARCropolis" or whatever
Were you using a 64 Gigabyte micro sd card? Because if so you are not able to format the card into FAT32 which requires a 32 gigabyte or less micro sd card. I would know since this happened to me before so I got a 32 gigabyte one and it worked.
I got the welcome to ARCropolis screen and it also said it detected my mods and if it should download them, ofc I said yes. I loaded into the game and none of the mods were there. Anyone know how to fix this, please help.
I have modded SSBU, but a bit later the Switch update came and i were dumb and updated. Now my mods arn’t loading when i start the game. The game doesn’t crash or anything, but the mods that are in the mods folder just dont apply. How do i fix this?
Do you really just extract the files onto the sd card put it in switch and inject the payload. None of the mods I put on the sd are showing up. Like you don’t have to arrange the files at all? Just put them in the mods folder that’s in the smash folder on the sd card?
Everything goes well till I get to 10 minutes into the video. My switch boots up the hekate logo, then it fades to black and suddenly I just have a black screen, no menu. Any workarounds for this?
I would have to assume this is just a regional inconsistency, but my switch's prefix is XKW4 which I don't see on there. I used XAW4 because that was the closest and worst comes to worst I factory reset.
i did the RCM part and it worked but when i tried to inject hekate it came up for a second then turned off then i couldn't get it to go into RCM anymore. Please help
do you guys know if exFAT works the same as FAT32? I'm doing this mid-july 2023, and you can no longer format sd cards into FAT32 as Microsoft has rolled out exFAT as a replacement for FAT32. i just wanted to make sure that this wont ruin anything.
Hey so everything worked except for getting the mods to run. I added all the extracted files to the mods folder, put the sd card back in the switch and injected hekate again, launched it the same way you did earlier. The files on my album are still there but when I launch smash it doesn't give me the arcropolis notification and launches normally, please help!
I think my answer will be a little bit late but you can't format a storage device with more than 32GB with the windows format tools. For formatting Storage devices more than 32GB you need to use 3rd-Party-Tools.
After i activate hekate on my switch and at timestamp 10:50, my switch keeps turning back on and i made sure im not hitting reset. is there something im doing wrong? was i supposed to keep the joycon in prior to that?
Just make sure to turn off your switch before removing the sd card. Then put your switch back into RCM using the method I showed. If it turns back, keep turning off and repeating the RCM attempt until the switch doesn't turn on.
update i extracted the mods into the mods folder but when i open smash nothing in relationm to arcropolis shows up. ive followed every step carefully but i dont know whats going wrong
alright so even with the FAT32 sd card and following all steps correctly, the mods still arent working. i dont get the arcropolis thingy. ive even downloaded the source code to it and put it in the arcropolis folder. is there zsomething im doing wrong?
Is it possible to be terminated by using modded skins/retextures in a private online arena?I genuinely don’t know if using just modded skins isn’t allowed.
Every step works for me except the last one? I dont get the acropolis notification and the mods wont appear/work...? Tip for the video you shouldve really brielfy paused inside the folders so we know whats actually inside of em
subs modding for me doesn't work because my serial letters aren't there and I don't know what to do, and if I try all of them it says it is patched so I can't mod :/
I got the message to apply mods when starting the game and i can even see the mods in the ARCropolis mod manager but when i go to a game none of the mods are there anyone know why this is?

I need help. When I load smash bros it doesn’t load any of the mods, just puts me in the game
When formatting the microSD card my only options are exFAT and NTFS. Will either of these work for the modding process?
sorry for the late reply, but i do not believe so. i think it has to be fat32
Well a fix for this is to get a 32 gigabyte sd card as anything above it may not work from a previous expierience.
I think my answer will be a little bit late but you can't format a storage device with more than 32GB with the windows format tools. For formatting Storage devices more than 32GB you need to use 3rd-Party-Tools.
After i activate hekate on my switch and at timestamp 10:50, my switch keeps turning back on and i made sure im not hitting reset. is there something im doing wrong? was i supposed to keep the joycon in prior to that?
Just make sure to turn off your switch before removing the sd card. Then put your switch back into RCM using the method I showed. If it turns back, keep turning off and repeating the RCM attempt until the switch doesn't turn on.
@@KroCalGames it worked, thank you!
update i extracted the mods into the mods folder but when i open smash nothing in relationm to arcropolis shows up. ive followed every step carefully but i dont know whats going wrong
Found out my sd card is actually 64 gb instead of 32gb and that’s the problem. We got a new one.
alright so even with the FAT32 sd card and following all steps correctly, the mods still arent working. i dont get the arcropolis thingy. ive even downloaded the source code to it and put it in the arcropolis folder. is there zsomething im doing wrong?
Mine says exFAT for the format on sd. Is that a problem?
The first 3 letters doesn't show up in the options. What does that mean?
Is this something you can undo in case things go wrong?
What do you mean by that
Is it possible to be terminated by using modded skins/retextures in a private online arena?I genuinely don’t know if using just modded skins isn’t allowed.
If other players can see the skins/retextures then You Bet
if not then no
Does this guide still work?
Every step works for me except the last one? I dont get the acropolis notification and the mods wont appear/work...?
Tip for the video you shouldve really brielfy paused inside the folders so we know whats actually inside of em
what do you do if it is potentially patched?
Get another switch that's unpatched.
What if i dont get a notification from my computer when i plug in the switch into my computer?
Does it require a 32 gig to work or does the size not matter?
subs modding for me doesn't work because my serial letters aren't there and I don't know what to do, and if I try all of them it says it is patched so I can't mod :/
When I put my mods in mods folder it doesnt work (its already extracted)
im stuck on the part where i launch hekate because it loads for a second than turns to black
It didnt work because it did not have my prefix anything I can do
If I homebrew my switch but then insert back the sd card I used before the hacking would it unhomebrew my switch?
No? pretty sure
So stage mods work the exact same way as skin mods?
do you have to use the cloud in order to back up your data
I got the message to apply mods when starting the game and i can even see the mods in the ARCropolis mod manager but when i go to a game none of the mods are there anyone know why this is?
The prefix for my switch isn't listed on the site
mine says my console is probably patched but doesnt know. I am now confused lol
I know this might be outdated, but I have to ask, are mods from Patreon safe?
I followed all of the steps but my mods wont work, I checked in the mod manager and it recognizes everything that I downloaded but nothing will load
the link for SDSET UP doesnt work anymore

I keep getting error code 2002-0001 whenever I try to launch CFW (sysMMC). Is there something I might be doing wrong?
I think you have to download the newest versions of atmosphere and hekate and just replace the files
