App Details

Pronounced as IPS-witch.

Use text to generate .ips patches to use with Atmosphere.


How to use

This program reads .pchtxt (patch text) files and can create .ips patches. .pchtxt is a in-house text file format to represent patches. You can find the specs for .pchtxt below.

The program looks for .pchtxt files with the path sdmc:/switch/ipswitch/{patch_description}/{whatever_name}.pchtxt. The dir {patch_description}/{whatever_name}.pchtxt is used for display purpose and help user to identify the patch. The {patch_description} folder name is used as the folder name in atmosphere/exefs_patches/{patch_description}.

Run the homebrew and it will let you select a .pchtxt file to generate .ips patch with.

Structure of .pchtxt File

.pchtxt will be a text file. See the splat310.pchtxt for some simple Splatoon 2 3.1.0 edit I provided for example.
