NX-NONET is a SaltyNX plugin that fake no available internet connection to avoid nag on some games without enabling airplane mode.

You need masagrator SaltyNX fork installed.

Installation

To install, put NX-NONET.elf to /SaltySD/plugins/.

This plugin hooks the nn::nifm::IsNetworkAvailable() function and always returns 0, telling the games no network is available.

Also available are these alternate SaltyNX patch versions (they are the same, but may work better than the plugin):

• IsNetworkAvailableEv.asm64 - Compatible with 64-bit games.
• SaltySD-Nop-Network - This version also eliminates the nag (e.g. "could not connect", "turn off airplane mode").

To use the patches, place them into /SaltySD/patches/.
