1.3.0 is Atmosphère's sixty-fourth official release. Who doesn't love round numbers?

Please be sure to update fusee when upgrading to 1.3.0. fusee-primary no longer exists, and will not work any more.

Please note: Atmosphère 1.3.0 is currently in pre-release, and issues may be found that need to be fixed before full release.

  • If any bugs are reported while Atmosphère is in pre-release, they will be fixed and the build will be updated.
  • 1.3.0 will transition to release after a short amount of time has passed without pressing bug reports.

Note: The fatal system module was updated in the pre-release zip on 2022/03/23 at 7:20 PM PDT to fix failure to detect the power button (and to auto-reboot) from the fatal system module error screen. The updated zip has a build hash of "-b69fa1357".

With thanks to the @switchbrew team, Atmosphère 1.3.0 is bundled with hbl 2.4.1, and hbmenu 3.5.0.

The following was changed since the last release:

  • Support was added for 14.0.0.
    • mesosphère was updated to reflect the latest official kernel behavior.
    • erpt was updated to reflect the latest official behaviors.
    • pm was updated to reflect the latest official behaviors.
    • fatal was updated to reflect the latest official behaviors.
  • A mechanism for automatically cleaning up erpt_reports was added.
    • When booting, if the console has more than 1000 reports inside /atmosphere/erpt_reports, the folder will be cleaned to empty.
    • This behavior can be disabled by setting erpt!disable_automatic_report_cleanup = u8!0x1 in system_settings.ini.
  • Atmosphère's build system was re-written, and now allows globally building for various builds/configs.
    • All boards now automatically support release/debugging/auditing targets; it is now possible to build a full debugging/auditing build of atmosphère for the first time.
  • Support was added for compiling libstratosphère to run on PC.
    • The currently implemented/tested targets are Windows (x64), Linux (x64, arm64), macOS (x64, arm64).
      • If you are a developer interested in adding support for another target, please reach out to SciresM#0524 on discord.
    • This is intended to finally allow sanely testing Atmosphère's code, by allowing most of it to run on a PC (with access to a debugger) instead of on game console hardware.
    • In addition, this will allow making PC tools which reuse code written for Atmosphère directly..
    • Please Note: This has no relation to interacting with official software on PC whatsoever. This really allows for making tests and self-contained atmosphère-based command-line tools; the Atmosphère project continues to have zero interest in attempting to run official software of any kind.
    • In the course of adding this support (and working on tooling using it), a number of fairly major revisions were made to stratosphere (particularly surrounding filesystem code).
      • Please Note: A number of changes made for this (and ones necessary in the process of adding support for 14.0.0) are api-breaking.
        • If you're a developer and any of this caused your code to break, please feel free to contact SciresM#0524 for help updating your program.
  • General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.
