You will get poor performance in Dock mode due to rescaling or monitor resizing. Something the same with what happens with L4T Ubuntu in Dock mode.

Is this true or just an assumption? Because I really don't see this being the case.

Ouch... even more reason to stick with HOS/RetroArch then, I guess.

The only alternative to HOS is L4T Lineage OS, the performance in Dock mode remains the same and you can rescale the game as much as overclocking allows it (if it had better dissipation it would avoid turning off the CPU). The only problem with Android is and always will be the bottleneck that emulators suffer every time it loads content from the ROM, because it is using only the MicroSD to store the OS, the applications and the ROMs, making readings and writes, and in the end it wears down the MICROSD enormously. Unfortunately it happened to me with Ubuntu and I couldn't write to a 64GB MicroSd anymore.

You should try an FTP / DLNA server to store ROMs or if it would allow peripheral connections in DOCK mode to use USB storages, although most emulators don't allow loading ROMS from local servers (I suppose RetroArch if ...), try for yourself same..

Hopefully in the future HOS will allow loading ROMs from local servers or by the Xortroll fsp-usb module (currently only compatible with its Goldleaf dev version tool)

I need help so i made some changes in the dolphin menu trying to get a rom to run faster doing so one of the changes froze it up so now everytime i try try to start dolphin up it goes to the black frozen screen so i cant even get back into settings to change it back. Anyone knows how to reset it back to default or have any solutions?

Having recently hacked my switch, I downloaded the newest build I could find in this thread, to play Pokemon Colosseum.
Anyone else having issues with distorted audio?

ive been using android to emulate since switchroot released, on the same sd card.
Never had a problem with the sd card deteriorating. Retropie uses the same method, and their arent large discussions of roms read/write destroying the sd card. Pretty sure you just had a bad card

. Modern day cards that are half decent, are much more than capable of handling switchroot.
Should mention too, the same sd card also ran lakka and ubuntu previously without issues.

Can anybody help me with Lakka for switch? I’m playing Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility but I need the safe texture option to be able to read all of the words. Has safe texture been added yet or no?

Hopefully they fix the cheats crashing. I don’t know why but it crashes with some of the codes I use.

LAKKA is not yet possible on a V.2 Switch (MARIKO)?

Lakka on Switch is a dead project, it was abandoned more than one year ago. The "newest" versions you can find on this very forum are just fan-made updates to the existing distribution.
Sadly, I wouldn't expect to see Lakka running on Mariko at any time soon. Or at all.

pity that the hekate reboot is not possible

Is retroarch on atmosphere better now, or is Lakka still a go-to for some cores?

cl4ssik · Nov 5, 2020

For sure, retroarch is better now, i have the 1.9.0 version installed on my switch and it works like a charm

Kailow · Nov 5, 2020

Good to know, I also know thanks, it's sad, because I feel like Lakka had a lot of potential for being more optimized than retroarch on top of atmosphere or Switchroot. I also liked the convenience of just booting to Lakka and having the OC settings right there, and then leaving Atmosphere or Switchroot on a different SD card from stock.

Budsixz · Nov 5, 2020

Is there a dolphin core for retroarch cause I can't see any in mine but lakka did have that
