Homebrew RELEASE Lakka.tv - turn your Switch into a RetroArch powered retrogaming console - includes PSX, N64 and PSP

[natinusala]

@natinusala have you talked to anyone working on this in a while? Any expected update?

Not yet unfortunately

Question I was thinking has you tried to put it in RCM mode leave it to drain the battery then plug it in and run normally would that fix the problem. I can’t test cause I didn’t install it for others to try it

Everytime I reset Lakka for wifi (when i can get it to load on my switch black screen bug) it black screens and wont restart at all. any ideas especially on how i can get it to run every time perfectly (I am running windows 10 cant use linux as dont have it) and i tried installing the files to the sd manually as well as writing the image to the sd card neither works??? on system 5.1 on my switch

There is no perfect way atm, Lakka is still in development and experimental.

i understand but i cant even get it to reset to use wifi since it black screens everytime it does and im pretty sure you cant use wired for lakka with your dock right???

Overclock the GPU or write an ARL JIT for Reicast

Overclock didn’t work too well. I’ll just be patient. Thanks for all your work and help

How can I get lakka to reboot rcm and go back into lakka the first time i try it as having major issues with this (and yes i googled it and found nothing except reset and keep trying) i have tried that 50 times now

Reboot to RCM while being plugged in your computer and just run the exploit again

@natinusala Do you have a Twitter or something so we can see weekly updates?

 

[haxan]

very noob question here, will lakka be able to support ps2?

Depends on Switch Hardware and not really Lakka (software) itself

From my understanding, I think its possible on Switch but with heavy optimization (which means a long wait time)

Well actually it's the exact opposite, the Switch could be capable but an emulator will need to be written and optimized

will normal arm cores not work with the switch?

 

[DiJornios]

Is there anyway a noob without a Linux can help develop or speed up the optimization (I wanna help!)

I’m down for that too I mod on ps3 5150 clan

what?

 

[MrWhosHacking]

what?

I’m down to help on the project. I mod on the ps3 so I mess around with homebrews and making mod menus on notepad ++.

@natinusala not sure if this helps but TX mentioned for the following for Battery Issue;

• Q: Is SX affected by the dreaded "battery desync" problem?
  A: As far as we are aware this battery desync problem currently only occurs when running Linux on your Switch.
  While extensively testing SX OS, including booting SX OS with AutoRCM we have not ran into a single battery desync issue ourselves.
  SX OS itself isn't based on Linux. We *do* allow people to run Linux (and other payloads) through our "external payload" functionality. This is at your own risk.
  If we had to give the community a hint as to where to start looking into this "battery desync" problem we'd suggest looking into how the Fuel Gauge IC (MAX17050, I2C1 addr 36) is being used by Nintendo's OS and by Linux.

Not sure if you would the person to mention it to... but thought i share
