    Feedback Homebrew Offering bounties for Switch homebrew (ports)

    Well currently about 2 2D titles are full speed without OC, and nothing else is all to close. Lots of 60-70% speed. I wish I could say I had more ideas for better performance, but the GPU is just so limiting.

    Yeah, performance is really not great on this despite my best efforts. The Switch already has to do extra hacks to get JIT to work, alongside not having some optimisations that upstream has due to Horizon lacking features. I'm both impressed and annoyed with how it runs currently.

    What's wrong with it exactly? Those messages are normal since fastmem doesn't work on Switch and never will and the renderer should always be hardware. The game appears to still be loading though?

    I don't believe Vulkan is available through Switch Mesa, but even if it was it would perform worse than the current backend does since it (Deko3D) is custom built exactly for the Switch and it's GPU. OpenGL also isn't supported for the same reason as it's not worth my time to get worse...

    Probably not considering very little runs well even with a substantial overclock, but you can give it a try.

    I'm going to look into why the game looks like that because it definitely shouldn't. Maybe look into performance too, although I'm running out of ideas in regards to that.

    New version has been released https://github.com/PalindromicBreadLoaf/ARMSX2-NX/releases/tag/v1.2.0 This should help with anything GPU bound. Also be sure to set blending accuracy to minimum for free performance unless it breaks the game. I'll have to look into it to see if the same happens on...

    On what game?

    Fog is a known good way to just destroy GPU performance (see Persona 4), but best of luck. There will be a new release somewhat soon that has a bunch of GPU optimisations, so that may help some if performance is abysmal.

    Interesting. I'd consider that game breaking. I'll look into it when I get a chance and see what's up with the renderer in that game. Anything running full speed with no overclock is insane. Besides emulated titles I haven't seen anything close to that in any of the games I've tested.

    That's just a visual bug since I forgot to update the info in the NACP. Here's a new version with that fixed, but the build is basically identical https://github.com/PalindromicBreadLoaf/ARMSX2-NX/releases/tag/v1.1.1

    I did try it but it seems to hang on a black screen before getting to the title. I have yet to see if that’s an issue with my porting or if upstream ARMSX2 has the same issue. 1782307733 I only tested 3, and it's a very consistent 43% of full speed with no graphical issues. Not very playable...

    That’s not surprising since the EE thread is normally the one bumping off 100% if the scene isn’t GPU bound. And which games? I’ve noticed some games have some broken effects, but I’ve never seen anything game breaking.

    A little more testing shows Gradius III + IV at locked 60fps even at stock clocks. Absolutely smooth there. Could even get away with underclocking in handheld mode. Also tried Klonoa II, but that didn't boot whatsoever.

    On it As much as I would love Xenosaga to work, there's zero way it runs at a playable speed. Last I checked it could barely do 60% speed on my Galaxy S21 which is much more powerful, but I can see how it does at least. Same with the tales of games. 1782264222 Everything but 8 runs at a solid...
