Homebrew {Request} Can someone look into the FLOG Emulator? [Updated]

[sarkwalvein]

The problem is only the usage of the right joycon has been described.
Nobody said what to do with the left one.
Some further look into the disassembled code for the home menu suggests that it may be required to shove it up one's ass.

 

[Marxally]

To be fair. Should took 5 more since this is a easy to spot fake.

Just wanted to try doing some mockups, I don't want to fool anybody, specially the people here lol. I am still looking for the best layer option in Photoshop to create realistic reflections, so... I like to try stuff.

I've probably did the swing on every screen so many times I probably completed a full 18 holes of golf lol.

Everyone asking - it wasn't launched the "cheat code" way. Otherwise I would have posted instructions. Looking into what triggers it now.

Lol its pixelpar.

How did he do this if not legit way?

Privvy to pegaswitch? Smhax? Floghaxx?

I must have been auto-corrected lol. Didn't even notice. lol

Actually, you've got it reversed -- right Joy-Con goes up your ass, with the IR sensor entering first. That way, the Joy-Con can scan your rectum to verify you've actually inserted it.

Sooooo, the X and the Swing motion is completely false?

I tried it on every screen available. So either, false, or my swing sucks lol.

It may actually be quite difficult to pull, as late reviews on the disassembled code by my peers suggest that you should press the X button and swing it like a golf club while it is still inserted in your rectum IR sensor first.
That may explain the quite low success ratio of triggering the game.

 

[delete12345]

Well ok,

If we actually have the disassembled code available to us, like a screenshot, we can use crowdsourcing methods to get everyone to solve this together by reading the code.

 

[:-infern:]

Someone apparently launched it, altough it could be an edited video I guess? https://twitter.com/pixelpar/status/909888802252115973

It's not edited. He launched it the same way they got the original screenshots, by executing the binary and not by doing any motion control stuff.

He says so in another tweet. Right now he's trying to reverse the binary to see how is activated

This has been proven false. I'm typing with one hand while the other is still trying to retrieve my joy-con. I used every angle possible as well.

 

[delete12345]

You have to give it that feel. The feel needs to be as soft as a Maine Coon, such that if you use your fingers and gently rub it, it will get very sensitive.

That's because you have press the X button 0.5x times and then do the swing motion, then it will work

I was clinching to press.

Additional info was found that the right joycon motion sensors are active. Apparently, even when the motions are registered as correct, "flog" is still being launch, which hints that there may be other conditions that need to be satisfied first.

Another info is that it is suggested the game is triggered from the News screen. Or specifically, this is where the right Joycon's promixity sensors are enabled.

This may be plausible given that you can now launch any on games from the News screen, but only if you no games running in the background. It is unsure if you are able to launch a game with an empty news article.

The more we know....

Interesting. Maybe we'll have to wait for something official, but wasn't flog in retail systems since 1.0.0? Why?

Do 0.5 X-presses, build up speed for 12 hours and then in some parallel universe, the emulator unlocks.

Someone get Pannenkoek in here!

Btw when this happened to me I believe this happened on July 19th, don't know the significance of that, but maybe people want to test it.

Are you sure your switch's date is not wrong?
