i tried around 20 games and everything worked, the only game that didn't worked for me that's worth mentioning is Justice League United, pretty good game.

Edit: Tried a bit more games and all the games from Final Fight LNS series crashes on loading for me.

Using nsp forwarder latest atmo

This release is based on a fairly old openbor build (4618 i guess) so any pack made after this version will likely crash.

Many thanks @rsn8887 for bringing this back to life on later firmware.
If you ever get a chance to revisit this project again, just to note, the OpenBorLog.txt doesn't get generated, but seems its been like that since the original release.
This would be useful when debugging games with openbor game devs who are looking to make switch compatible versions.

Calling all side scrolling beat-em-up connoisseurs, you won't want to miss this new update from @magggas

Double Dragon Reloaded - Alternate
https://magggas.itch.io/double-drag...uild-404-with-no-continue-bug-fix-is-released

The classic feel and sprites of the original Double Dragon are well persevered while adding more moves, playable characters, game modes and... WWF Superstars! Suplexing Abobo off the edged of the cliff with Andrea the Giant never gets old!

Previously unplayable for the most part on Swicth, magggas has provided a Switch compatible version with the latest release, which does not compromise on features.

Have a blast with this one!

EDIT: must be loaded with full memory access - https://gbatemp.net/threads/use-atmosphere-to-access-full-ram-with-homebrews-without-nsp.521240/

Anyone been able to get the joycons to register seperately?

Also, whenever I try to exit out of OpenBOR by quitting it crashes and requires a reboot to the switch.

The one rsn8887 posted on this thread worked for me as for the controls working again. Sadly the Double Dragon reloaded above still crashes Atmosphere for me when it gets to the loading screen though. All my other Paks work however. I too have the issue with OpenBor crashing when trying to quit it instead of just hitting home to close it.

Make sure to use the switch version in the download link, and use the full memory access override or the game will fail at loading screen: https://gbatemp.net/threads/use-atmosphere-to-access-full-ram-with-homebrews-without-nsp.521240/

It won't recognise the joy cons in their sideways mode, however, it is still achievable (ish):

Load the game normally - (use full memory access).
press the home key to go to switch menu
go to switch controllers and register player 1 in sideways mode.
return to openbor game
activate the second joycon
Use the openBOR controller config menu to configure the the buttons so you can use it in a sideways fashion. So effectively it's not sideways mode it's:
player 1 = joycon-1-left
player 2 = joycon-2-right.

However, you won't be able to use the SL and SR shoulder buttons as it's technically not sideways mode, however, it does mean that L+ZL is available for player 1 and R+ZR for player 2, just inconveniently placed I guess.

To quit OpenBOR use switch home menu button and close application.

Thanks Templar. Your post reminded me to try that PAK again after I had already installed the forwarder for use of more ram just last night. I totally forgot to test it out again and had placed it another directory temporarily. Works like a charm! ;)

I tried this but for some reason it registers both the joystick and the dpad (for the left joycon) as the same inputs; giving me only the L and ZL buttons for mapping the face buttons.

Make sure the right-hand joycon is not being detected as player 1 (one green light), otherwise you'll get the effect as you described. If it cannot pick up the right hand joycon for player one, then those dpad buttons should be available as normal buttons.

Basically you want: 1 green light on the left joycon and 2 green lights on the right joycon.

You can do this by pressing the home button, go into the switch controllers and register player 1 in sideways mode, as the only controller.
Then go back into openbor to configure for player 1, the dpad buttons should then behave as normal buttons.
Then press buttons on the right hand joycon to simply wake it up, then configure for player 2.
Hope that helps
