0.7.5 hotfix patch notes:
**Fixes**
- Fixed a bug in the Core Update Manager caused by versions.json.
- Locked Tico startup to sdmc:/switch/tico/tico.nro to prevent confusion when chainloading back from emulator cores.
- Added automatic creation of the required 3DS system directories.
- Added the ability to change the 3DS system username in Emulator Settings.
- Added Inverted Horizontal and Inverted Vertical screen orientation modes for Azahar to prevent console grips from blocking the Switch's ventilation.

I had to install the 3DS core manually as well, I tried NSMB2, it's playable but there's lots of graphical glitches and slowdowns.

Ocarina of Time 3D runs great, almost flawless, very impressive ! I didn't know I was supposed to interact with the touchscreen though 😅

So I heed help with the cheats for tico PPSSPP..

I don’t get anything to work. How should I do? Got the cheat.db and also made a folder PSP with a Cheat’s folder within.

Always „No db“

And is there a way to show the fps in tico?

Yeah, I know. I just want it in tico so it will relatively safely do the necessary overclocking for me, like it does with dolphin. When I tried to figure out how to do it myself, most of what I accomplished was crashing atmosphere so bad I had to do reinstall. There needs to be better guides on how to do that stuff for total dumdums like me that have zero idea what they're doing. (especially how to bypass the safety governor.)

Does anyone know if the option "Right Eye Rendering" behaves the same as "Disable Right Eye Rendering" in Azahar?

Sorry if its a dumb question, its just that it implies that it "renders" it insead of "disabling" it 😅 (Its OFF by default).
 
Speaking of guides i made a GBATemp post that ill change as updates release and to round out guide, but figured might as well post a copy here as well if anyone needs it.

Emulation Homebrew Tutorial  Thread 'Tico Quick Start Guide'

I noticed the Tico wiki didnt have updated info or a Quickstart guide for 1st time users as itemized list of instructions, so i decided to make Tico-Quick-Start-Guide.PDF that lists a bunch of pitfalls or qwerks and how to avoid them in the process of setting up Tico 0.7.6

Its not perfect or finished, but i think in current form it has enough utility to warrant a post for it.

It covers how to get Tico, how to set up SD card with it, boot installer, add roms, bios , add music themes ect.

I’m still on 0.7.3, I haven’t updated tico for a while. Maybe I’m on 7.2, can’t remember but wad games don’t seem to be a priority. Maybe I update if Wii sports works good with boxing. I still want to play castlevania rebirth and contra on the switch though.

Hi, I'm trying to play Yoshi's Universal Gravitation (Topsy-Turvy) using mgba core, but it doesn't seem to recognize the Joy-Con motion/gyro controls. Is there any way to enable gyro mapping in tico?

Hey, what you said caught my attention. Over the last few days I've been trying to get the other PS2 emulator running at decent speeds, but I haven't had much luck.

The part about TICO handling the overclocking really interested me. Are you saying TICO has its own built-in overclocking features, or that it manages overclocking differently than the usual tools like sys-clk? I'm not super familiar with how all this works, so I just wanted to make sure I understood what you meant.

It just overclocks automatically whenever you select the dolphin core, so you don't have to go to sys-clk to change values manually.
