S2idle lasts around 3 days. So it's many times worse than HOS Sleep Mode.

So from full battery, I should expect the switch to drain over 3 days? I would have it charging before then anyway, so I will happily take that

June 15th is an answer for everything.

Well, for my Switch running L4T 1.3 (1.3.1 wasn't released when I went to bed), it was at 81% when I put it in standby. When I got up (about 5, maybe 5.5 hours later), it was at 41%. I'll be trying 1.3.1 tonight. Hopefully 1.3.1 has less dropoff than that (seems like it'd last less than a day to me, based on a 40% battery loss in 5-5.5 hours).

FWIW I'm pretty sure you'd also have no sound, because that's all drivers that are tied in together... unless you are okay with BT audio.

In which case, you can use the previous Lakka build, which supported only wireless joycons

Except that the old version couldn't run Gamecube games. The L4T based Lakka has significant speed and efficiency improvements.

As for audio, I bought a bluetooth speaker specifically for Lakka, so no, bluetooth only audio doesn't bother me. However, more importantly, if that were true, then audio would be broken in either L4T or Lakka. Since it's working in both (and bluetooth isn't), I can't see it being likely that implementing bluetooth (and losing wired joy-cons) would break audio.

Well better then nothing I guess. Hope its sooner but hey lakka has improved so much already I can wait a few weeks. Hell even months at this point. Ape escape with no issues is worth it alone.

June 15th is a joke that is used for Atmosphere releases.

Can I ask though (to anyone who may know) how S2idle compares to horizons sleep mode? Will battery drainage be much different? Can it be left in its sleep/suspended mode for days as done in Horizon?

Please note that it's not actually sleep, it's "suspend to idle", which means "do nothing until power is pressed again". While not as deep as actual sleep (as done by HOS), it's still less consuming than actually running the system (about 1% per hour)

Fat32?

silver95 · May 31, 2019

could someone make the Tenkaichi 3 work ??? I converted it to .wbs format but it gives me a black screen and it forces me to restart.

Ya same settings i use 60%, I think aswell(although haven't tested too thoroughly) you can get a smoother performance if you hold B on startup(sometimes you need to keep mashing it) and change from 60Hz option to NO(At nintendo logo). Game runs more smoothly at 50Hz. I use Threaded Video in the settings also.
I have a feeling the dolphin emulator version itself plays a part in the performance too(specially audio), I seem to be able to up the EFB scale to 2X(much nicer resolution) with the above settings and the game in the opening village runs almost perfectly, with just occassional audio stutters.

this worked wonders!! thanks dude

So I managed to get it to work 2 different ways but both in the end what made the difference seems to be the partition table type (note that I am on Ubuntu).

- The easiest but longest is to write the L4T Ubuntu image on your card, deleting the ext4 partition, extending the fat32 partition, deleting all files on the fat32 partition and then copying lakka the same way you would usually do (do not forget hekate).

OR

- Download GParted, delete all existing partitions on your sd card then create a msdos partition table type, then create a fat32 partition.

For some reason by just doing that it worked on all my sd cards where it was not working previously! Hopefully it will help someone else!

Did you try that? Worked for me and a couple others here!

I’ll give this a shot, thanks. Also I’m using fat32.
