I'm actually stunned I'm making this post, but if anyone is interested, Tales of Symphonia on the GameCube is FULLY playable on boosted CPU speed, stock gpu, with only a tiny bit of stutter when loading battles.

Changing cpu to High Performance eliminates that, from what I can tell.

Skies of Arcadia is what I would consider playable.

On the other side, Resident Evil Zero, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle run like total ass.

Resident Evil Zero is out legit for the switch, leaked already.

The core needs the Dreamcast BIOS files to be placed in /lakka/storage/system/DC

No

lol F-Zero GX runs REALLY well BUT the camera is stuck under the stage, in place, making it literally unplayable.

i don't see a section for cheats. i assume this does not yet support cheats?

Budsixz · May 16, 2019

anyone tried windwaker or sunshine with gamecube emu? how do those work?

Shaneus · May 16, 2019

Quick question I think someone asked earlier - is it possible (or does it happen already) to tie CPU and GPU OC settings per game or core? Would be super handy if not feeling like draining the battery massively.

Other than that, this shit is super smooth and I'm really impressed. Well done to the team behind porting it!

PSO in Dolphin crashes Lakka after the time/date setup inside the game.
I tried with both vulkan an gl.
Anyone had more luck?

PSO v2 in Reicast seems to work, but suffers from slowdowns, even when overclocked.
Actually the horizon reicast alpha runs this a lot smoother without overclocking, but with massive grapics glitches.

i used my old gamecube memory card save for the game and im boom im in the game!

EmulateLife · May 16, 2019

I'm playing Fire Pro Wrestling D (english translation) on Reicast. It's all glitchy on horizon.

enderer · May 16, 2019

mega man 9 and 10 run shitty, like 30-40fps in-game

Lakka Switch, L4T edition

I am proud to finally release the L4T version of Lakka Switch!
New kernel, new logo, new drivers, audio... everything is fresh and clean.

Did I mention Rayman 3 was full speed on Dolphin? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

General system updates

New Linux kernel and underlying operating system, based on Linux4Tegra and Jetson Nano drivers

mainline kernel has been deprecated

system features should now be on par with the L4T Ubuntu distribution, except for dock support

Bluetooth was lost in the battle and needs some rest to come back stronger

aarch64 is now the default and mainly supported architecture

arm has been deprecated since L4T doesn't support it

New logo made with the help of jaames and the R:S community

New features and improvements

Audio now works through the internal speakers and headphones

The new GPU driver supports both Vulkan and OpenGL

RAM is now locked at full speed (1600Mhz), was 800MHz before

The system is now way more stable and should boot for everyone with a decent SD card (no more black screen of death)

RetroArch has been updated to add menu widgets (fancy onscreen notifications)

Overclock profiles have been updated :

Renamed all profiles

Added more overclock profiles

Added underclock profiles

New cores

mupen64plus-next (N64 emulator)

The core is full speed, even on aarch64 thanks to the new dynarec

Includes the updated version of the GlideN renderer

picodrive (various Sega consoles)

The core replaces Genesis Plus GX (Game Gear support has been dropped)

Beetle PSX HW (PSX emulator with OpenGL and Vulkan renderer)

The core performs worse than PCSX ReARMed for now, even with Vulkan

reicast (Dreamcast emulator)

The core is full speed on all commercial games, no visual glitches

The OIT renderer works (better accuracy), speed is still good on 1x resolution

The core needs the Dreamcast BIOS files to be placed in /lakka/storage/system/DC

WinCE games are currently not supported - there is a WinCE version of the reicast core in the works but the aarch64 dynarec is too slow for the games to be playable (for now)

Yaba Sanshiro (Saturn emulator)

The core is full speed on all commercial games

Yabause and Kronos were also added but both perform worse than Yaba Sanshiro

theodore (Thomson MO/TO emulator)

Updated cores

Dolphin : Vulkan support

With Vulkan, Dolphin runs decently - some games are playable, some are full speed... see for yourself, try it and experiment with different games and settings!

PCSX ReARMed : Switch optimizations and CHD support

PPSSPP : doesn't crash anymore when closing content

Removed cores

mupen64plus

parallel-n64

Genesis Plus GX

Ishiiruka

It might come back once the core is updated with the (beta) Vulkan renderer

Please note that you can't dual boot Ubuntu and Lakka Switch for now (it will always boot Ubuntu).

So there is no way to use it after booting sxos, it has to be heckate and on start of booting? i dont think i cam use this, i donthave the jig or the usb of sxos, i forcedly need to use tegra payload installer to in autorcm. is this correct? cuz i dont understand how this is used at all

You just use tegra payload but payload hekate instead. You can always go back to SX OS on your next boot, but that's the only way to use this. Payloads only last as long as the system is on.

If you don't have a jig or usb type c cable how'd you even get SX OS to work? It requires those too.

So instead of using the payload to boot sxos i use the payload for hekate? ok thats new, gonna be honest, i have only used sxos so i have nex to no idea what heckate is so its gonna take me a while, and all just to play game cube wich i hear works in lakka, hopefully

It's not that hard really. Just follow the link on the first post and it gives you instructions. It also gives you a link to install hekate. You can have multiple payloads available on your tegra by adding them with the + button. So you just payload this and when you're done turn off the switch and payload SX OS, and alternate each time you want to use Lakka.

Thanks buddy that doeshelp me a whole lot..sadly i need fat32, and i have exfat for large file, i think i may pass temporarily until i find another sd exclusively to play lakka i guess

EmulateLife · May 16, 2019

You have multiple options with SX OS for large files on Fat32. You can install them via your usb type c cable on your computer (on any custom firmware) or with SX OS you can use a hard drive and install them that way (or just play them off the hard drive itself) and either of those options will bypass the 4 gb limit.

Glad to see audio finally working. Now we just need wireless joycons and dock support
