Is there anyway to change the buttons to go back to the Tesla Menu when using the Status Monitor Overlay? ie. use the FPS counter & to go back to the Tesla Menu & configure/change it you have to push both joysticks (Left (SL) + right (SR) in at the same time. Can we change the SL +SR combo to something else?

Also wondering if its possible to use the features in status monitor overlay like overclock or FPS counter in other emulators like Retroarch?

For some reason my Switch locks up when invoking Status-Monitor-Overlay. Sometimes it works a little but then my Switch locks up.

I'm using Status Monitor 1.0.3a, Ultrahand 1.5.8, HOS 18.0.1, AMS 1.7.0 and latest nx-ovlloader, SaltyNX, FPSLocker, sys-clk-oc8_0512 and OC Switchcraft 1.2.4. Is it supposed to work with the stuff I'm running?

Does this happen with Wi-fi turned off?

Then check if this happens with wifi turned off.
It worked for a while, but when triggering the overlay off it caused a crash again. I think it could be related to the fact (?) that both Ultrahand and Status Monitor Overlay use L + Down + Right Joystick Click to trigger.

If it's happening when trying to close overlay, it may be because you have too much sysmodules installed. When going back to main menu is when it takes the most RAM. Try to delete some sysmodules and restart system.

I managed to fix it by changing the key combo in the config file to key_combo=LSTICK+RSTICK. Before I wasn't using a config file at all. Thanks for your help, still!

/edit: question about the possible things to show on the overlay. In a video I saw someone display PWR draw and battery info in the Micro display. The readme doesn't list this as options for the config files. How did he/she do that?
/edit2: It is hanai3Bi's fork.

    some of the best selling games on the switch are wii u ports (that are priced way too high
    like come on 60 for a game thats a decade old??)

    @ColdBlitz, i forgot breath of the wild released for the Wii u

    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
