v2.0.0 · Dec 9, 2025
Important Note
Unlike Nimbus v2.0.0-rc1, this release doesn't require any special steps when upgrading from either v1.6.1 or older nor from this release candidate. When updating to this version, the patches will not be applied until you open the application, in which case it will deploy the update files on their proper location and handle any migration procedures automatically.
What's New
- Improvements on account management and error handling. If an error happens while switching accounts, they will be reported on screen for easier debugging.
- New multi-purpose plugin. This plugin bundles patches for game exploits, a PID logger for a bunch of games and HokakuCTR. This plugin must be activated each time you want to use it from the Nimbus app by pressing the Y button.
FAQ: When switching accounts I sometimes get the following error: d8a0c4e5
Short explanation: This error is very uncommon, but it can be fixed by trying again or disabling Wi-Fi to ensure it doesn't happen.
Long explanation:
Before switching accounts, the system must be logged out from any accounts to be able to switch to another one. However, the friends sysmodule requires to be disconnected from the friends server in order to log out, or it will throw FPD::Connected, the error from above. There isn't any API available to "disconnect" from the server, so the way it works is by blocking the network connection (in a similar way as when switching from Internet to Local Play) to get the friends sysmodule to disconnect from the server.
Our code checks for when the friends sysmodule actually gets disconnected, so this error shouldn't in theory happen, but there have been very rare instances of this error popping up despite the fact. As mentioned, this issue can be fixed by retrying the account switch or disabling Wi-Fi on the console full stop to ensure it always disconnects successfully.
