.ipk3 files should go into iwads/ since that's what they're supposed to be, unless it was misnamed by the author for whatever reason. The launcher does scan for them, also for *.iwad files, but only in iwads/.
Yo I just wanna say thank you so much for all your work on the id games! It's a really big deal to me as one random person enjoying them.
Having Q1-3 (+HL), and now Hexen etc is amazing. I already hop in Q3 on the go as a timekiller more than I do most the shit for Switch I've actually bought from N. It's the dream!
Also wanna say that they all run pretty flawlessly thus far for me on current OS update and Atmosphere for anyone looking.
Random side question, do you have any interest in UT/Unreal? Dunno if it's as feasible or if there's any interest but have been wondering if anyone would attempt a port, since you're one of the only people I see putting out old school FPS ports publicly figured it's worth a shot to see what the viability is.
If not was just curious, you have my gratitude brother for all this stuff. Being a little older it's still wild to me how good the switch is & how good the mod scene is.

Thank you @fgsfds for this superb Doom port! I cannot believe it I played Brutal Doom (v21 just came out) on my Switch today thanks to you, and it worked absolutely flawlessly!!!!
All I did was I adjusted the sound fx volume to 0.2, because I felt the fx from my gun were a bit too loud. And then I adjusted the turn/look axis sensitivity to 0.5 because aiming felt better that way to me.
Amazing work!

Do you get pauses with it though? Idk if it's because it's graphically intense but explosions make it stop for a second
It does that even on my pc I think it is normal, explosion chain reactions are just very CPU intensive I think.
i messed up and wiped my nice smooth config file. And now tweaking settings from default i cant seem to get it not run choppy.
Anyone got a nice high fps config file they could share with me?

@fgsfds Could you share the command line you used to built it ?
I tried twice this weekend, but I can't make it to build.
I have all the libnx dependencies, and I inderstand that I have to build it for native target first (ImportExecutables.cmake seem to matter) but when it come to the switch build, it fail. Last time I tried, it complained about fluidsynth not present, then I tried to install your fluidsynth-lite port but it didn't work either.
I just want to overclock the switch prior to run the program. I don't want to mess with AMS plugin (like sys-clk) to do it.
Thanks you

To be frank with you, I don't remember the exact cmake command line I used to build it. I generated CMakeCache once and then forgot about it. Should've probably written it down.
But here's a general build process for everyone who wants to have a crack at it.
- Make sure you've installed all the dependencies (this includes switch-tools, devkitpro-pkgbuild-helpers, openal-soft and fluidsynth-lite). libopenal-soft.a might need to be renamed to libopenal.a, likewise libfluidsynth-lite.a into libfluidsynth.a.
- Build the game for your host platform (i.e. msys2, WSL, Mac or Linux, whatever you're compiling on) in a separate folder. The wiki has instructions for that.
- Create a folder called "switchbuild" or something in your gzdoom source folder, cd into it and execute this:
Code:
source /opt/devkitpro/switchvars.sh
cmake -G"Unix Makefiles" \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/opt/devkitpro/switch.cmake \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/opt/devkitpro/portlibs/switch/bin/aarch64-none-elf-pkg-config \
-DIMPORT_EXECUTABLES=/path/to/your/native/build/ImportExecutables.cmake \
-DFORCE_CROSSCOMPILE=ON \
-DDYN_FLUIDSYNTH=OFF \
-DDYN_OPENAL=OFF \
-DDYN_MPG123=OFF \
-DDYN_SNDFILE=OFF \
-DNO_FMOD=ON \
-DNO_GTK=ON \
-DNO_OPENMP=ON \
..This is based on my CMakeCache.txt, so it might be slightly wrong. Replace /opt/devkitpro and /opt/devkitpro/portlibs with your own paths if they are different.
Just a head up: John Romero (Yes, THAT John Romero) just released a new 5th episode for Doom called Sigil, and it works perfect with the Switch port of GZDoom.
Get the .wad here!

Warning: Sigil will make you it's bitch.
Also, it's SUPER dark so you might wanna change the lighting settings to software or Legacy if you are finding it too hard to see, well, anything!

This also works on PrBoom, you just need to specify in the config file that you load sigil.wad as pwad, and if you want to have the music for it, then load the shreds.wad for Buckethead's music in it.

Released a small update, merging updates from GZDoom 4.1.2 and beyond.
I will attempt to sync releases to GZDoom releases in the future, if possible.

FGSFDS-
Thanks for all your hard work.
Any noticeable performance improvement with v2?
Also, i notice in v1 my profiles dissapear at random. Any solution?
Thanks again.

One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better. -
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
-
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G. -

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
