31/32 FPS on O3DS. Get hyped!
This is a 100% improvment since the initial version. From 16 to 25 to 31/32.

 

[UltiNaruto]

Using Smash Bros 3DS cart.
O3DS Sysnand 9.2 loaded perfectly on first try but takes long to go to main menu.
Game : Zelda Link's awakening
Main menu : 40 fps constantly.
Cutscenes : 24 fps.
Thunder cutscene : 0 fps.
Ingame : 5-9 fps. 0 when moving. It's a lot laggy.
The sounds seem to play very well.

EDIT: The Thunder cutscene at beginning doesn't seem to load correctly and some menus can't load background.

You'll have to wait a lot of time so since i'll probably stop updating test builds cause in 100 downloads only 3-4 people decided to help the development reporting their results
I'll probably test by my own the whole thing and i'll ask to @ihaveamac for testing about svchax (and this will obviously slow down a lot development).

 

[Merrx]

Does the svchax work in principle with 10.x cfw?
Or can we only use a 9.2 firms?
I got rid of my emuNAND, but maybe it was to early.

Portable SCMRPG, here i come!

I believe svchax is the reason why I can't pass console debug freezing，there are other ways to get kernel hax on a 3ds，unless I can load into the test build， there is nothing I can report different from others，and yes， it's 10min freezing，not 5s

are you sure it really works on new 3ds cfw with 10.x
native firm theoritically?

For what @aliaspider said in svchax thread, it should properly run on any NATIVE_FIRM.

Got furthur test on both New 3DS & Old 3DS,
Situations that work:
9.2 sysnand with 9.0 Native_Firm on both system.

Doen't work:
9.2 sysnand with 10.x Native_Firm on both system
10.7emunand with 10.x Native_Firm on both system

I should say it is almost impossible to use youtube as launching title on 9.2 sysnand, because it is now encrypted with 9.6 key.
Luckily I have a lot of Monster hunter games and smash bros4.

Also, the port doesn't support japenese routes, it's a pity that rpg maker was first released by Japenese conpany.
When I play a free game called Ruina(download link:http://www.freem.ne.jp/win/game/2037), It threw me such errors on my new 3DS:

Mmmmhhh i've an idea that could probably fix it. Going to test right now, thanks for the report

Can you give me a direct download to the game? I don't really understand where to click to download it

Link is dead

P.S. A little update about the progresses for anyone interested on this:

- BGM Musics are now supported (Only WAV files atm).
- SFX Sounds are now supported also in OGG format.
- Increased framerate (Now it runs at 32/33 FPS on O3DS)
- Fixed the transparent tilesets blending, now every tileset is correctly drawed.
- Fixed FPS counter (L trigger to show/hide it) and removed the debug FPS counter on debug console.
- Now START button will be mapped as for ESC button on PC so it will not shutdown the whole homebrew wherever you are.

At the moment, most of the games could be played quite good BUT there still are a lot of things to add and performances need to be improved too.

Did you try zelda link's awakening?

Gave it a fast try on O3DS, initial cutscene has a bad framerate, ingame it is 27/28 FPS perfectly rendered with sounds with some zone with pretty bad framerate (2-3 fps).

Do you have a CFW? If so, i can try to build a CIA with Ruina121 in romFs to see if it solves the problem (since i'm having some problems with sdmc filesystem and i need to know if the problem is in ctrulib or not).

For what I know, fat32 doesn't support unicode. So unless the 3ds has a workaround, like windows does, you might have to implement your own workaround on the player itself.

I think I have found the reason why I can’t play it，as a Chinese， the windows I‘m using uses different kind of unicode from japanese，
when I extract the zip， file names are changed into random characters，when I change them back manually，I can play the game with this homebrew now

This is basically what i wrote on EasyRPG official forum about this problem:

If i'm not wrong, i'm quite sure 3DS doesn't have an fopen option for widechar usage so the win32 code it's unusable.

Looking to stdio implementation it looks like fopen automatically converts the char* string you pass to an UTF16 so it's quite strange that this happens:

Here is another free game I’m trying with. It's called Grimm Adventures, a much bigger game.
Cutscene such as opening is 0 fps, ingame scene is roughly 50 fps on the new 3DS.
A strange thing is, with the dialog, there are something like\>\C[0] before the words,
Here it is

click 下载，then 普通下载 with the window prompt out

The grey box problem had been solved with this commit: https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/easyrpg-player-3ds/commit/215ed5b6c3a8fc11e0ab5740ff2e29cd188954af

Here's another test build updated to latest commit. Another thing that should be tested is romFs support since at the moment i have access only to a 4.5 fw console running nh 1.1b (and nh 1.1b doesn't have romfs support at all).

romfs should contain game files (like romfs:/Map0001.lmu).
Don't know if romfs file can be appended to a 3dsx directly or an elf file is needed. (The elf file is pretty big and currently i don't have a good internet connection <.<)

THis test build has a lot of fixes, new adds and improved framerate.
To see current framerate, press L to toggle FPS counter.
I hope someone will report bugs like @pdapanda did.
