Homebrew Question Why Can't Lakka?

milkydude12 · Jul 14, 2018

So i've been wondering, would it be possible to get Lakka running on an exfat micro sd? If not, why not? (also would lakka work if I partition my micro sd card as 2 partitions?) (i've searched the web and have yet to find an answer). Also I was wondering has anyone tried the 3ds core on Lakka? if so what game did you try and how many fps were you getting?

Thanks in advance

I did not see a 3ds core when I tried out Lakka the other day, and even if it was there I doubt it would have good FPS when we don't even have Hardware Acceleration, that's why the GameCube POC core can only do so much, but even that can do a good 25fps in most situations so gaining access to the GPU would be amazing.

Thanks for the reply! Ah.. I thought there was a 3ds core, but maybe im mistaken (if there is one though, hopefully there will be a substantial boost in speed once hardware acceleration is implemented)? As for the gamecube POC core, ya, if we can gain access and are able to utilize hardware acceleration, that would be great

(I would love to run twilight princess or super smash bros on it)

because linux doesn't boot off of exfat, only ext2-3-4 and some other filesystems.

I tried to add an exfat driver to Lakka. It divides the performances by two. Fuck exFAT.

I would add this to your lakka OP post on the thread lol

umm... sorry but I don't really understand that. Like, what makes the performance worse? is it just a driver related issue? or is it just an inherent issue with using exfat? Because I would really love to use Lakka, but I don't want to have to give up using exfat and use fat32 :/

That really sucks :/. What if I try to partition my exfat as 2 drives? As in one as exfat and one as fat32? (if that's even possible)

no as I said linux only uses ext2, ext3 or ext4 as filesystems, non of which windows recognises. you can use exfat or fat32(usually fat32) as boot drive though, exfat would need a recompiled kernel and/or ramdisk though, I think? and it would need to be specified that the root filesystem is on the second partition.

you can have two partitions just fine but afair windows doesn't treat that well on removable drives.

I don't know if it's related to the (potentially bad) driver or exFAT itself, but I don't care enough to try further. Don't use exFAT, it has no advantage and only brings issues.

Simple solution is to have a fat32 sd for
Lakka and an exfat for everything else.

I know this is a shot in the dark, but by any chance would it be possible for me to use the drives you have for exFAT? I honestly wouldn't mind the halved performance if it means I can at the very least use Lakka without having to switch out my exfat micro sd for a fat32 micro sd (that I do not currently possess). I don't mind issue as long as im able to even boot Lakka.

Or if we could forget about lakka and get 3d acceleration running in Retro nx. Man that's the dream. I've had no problems with exfat in retro nx and it runs right off of horizon.

So, I found this "https://www.reddit.com/r/SwitchHaxing/comments/91umw2/citra_core_goes_ingame_on_lakka_oot3d/". I was wondering if anyone has tried Rune Factory 4 via lakka 3ds core.

I tried the 3ds core in lakka, it crashed the switch. Also i saw a video where it worked but it was like 10 fps.

Pretty sure it does work, just it causes corruption.

There aren't any advantages for using exfat, installed nsps are automatically cut into parts smaller than 4GB

That discussion was in july when there wasnt as many options. Look at the dates of the posts.

Yea, might last years, might last weeks it seems, but eventually your sd card will be corrupted, and youll lose your saves ect.
