Hi guys! I just created a tool to make Nintendo Switch game forwarders on PS5. It helps you to generate a custom Homescreen app with your own icons, backgrounds, and theme music, which will open a game directly via ProsperoEden.

I’ve made a PR to ProsperoEden to make it work; in the meantime, you can try my build (based on the latest build, v1.000.070). You will also need to load the ps5-app-launcher.elf payload - a helper that takes the forwarder data and passes it to ProsperoEden.

Instructions

  1. Download ps5-app-launcher.elf and add it to your payload sender list.
  2. Download ProsperoEden with the "forwardable" patch and put it into the /data/homebrew/ folder. Don't forget to have ShadowMountPlus on your payload sender list as well.
  3. Generate a forwarder for each Switch ROM you have by providing the name, ROM filename, icon, and other resources (background and music). My tool will give you a ready-to-install forwarder app to place into the /data/homebrew/ folder.
  4. Wait for ShadowMountPlus to detect the new apps. After that, you can launch the Switch games directly from the Homescreen.
Let me know what you think!

Thanks!

Great work!!!

would you support game updates and cheats in the future releases?

That's a good point! I'm not sure how that could be achieved unless ProsperoEden implements an in game menu that can be brought up to change cheats like PS5CEMU has and if the game needs to be restarted then have an option to restart the game as well. How would you go about this if you were the one creating the launcher?

Yeah I've been using it and it's amazing! Seriously thank you so much for this awesome app bro! The PS5 scene is moving at light speed and Christmas started for us a little over a month ago and seems to have no end in sight thanks to the amazing people like you who are providing all these amazing apps to us! I can say I speak for 95% of the scene when I say we thank you and appreciate your hard work and time you devote to your project(s)!

I forgot to mention I loved the surprise when you select the "Play game" button in the preview window where you build the forwarder :rofl2:
 
Hey does anyone know if there is any difference between running games off the internal storage versus running it off a usb flash drive or hard drive?
