Legacy

Pretendo does not officially support legacy homebrew environments (Haxchi/CBHC) anymore. Legacy releases of the patcher may be found in old releases, and the source code may be found in the old_hbl and old_hbl_inkay branches on GitHub. However you will need to build these patches from source, and they will not be receiving any updates or technical support. Please consider upgrading to Tiramisu/Aroma
