I'm trying to compile Beetle_NGP, but so far it's giving me an error. I tried updating my devkitPro and installing devkitA64 from the Updater, but for some reason it didn't (probably because I already had an existing devkitPro installation), so I had to copy it manually.
I should try compiling from a C drive directory with no spaces just to be safe...

OK, I tried "make platform=switch", and now it gives me another error. Here is it this time:
Code:
C:\devkitPro\devkitA64\projects\RetroArch\Cores\beetle-ngp-libretro-master>make
platform=switch
/bin/sh: git: command not found
Makefile:231: /opt/devkitpro/libnx/switch_rules: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `/opt/devkitpro/libnx/switch_rules'.  Stop.

C:\devkitPro\devkitA64\projects\RetroArch\Cores\beetle-ngp-libretro-master>
Obviously I haven't compiled LibNX but I think the "/bin/sh: git" thingy means that the MSys version is obsolete. I'm using a devkitPro ver. 1.6.0 or something like that (probably because I used to compile Wii and DS homebrew back then); the only thing I installed was devkitA64, which I copied over to the devkitPro directory.

If youre on windows 10, use WSL https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10

This gives you the best compability

I'm using Windows 7 Pro SP2 64-bit.
Also, I'm wondering if you read the entirety of my message before replying.
Also, I got used to your Majora's Mask avatar already.
And I just said, I dont support the building with windows.

It might work, but I won't help you further on that

And no, the "bin sh thingy" means you don't have git installed or in your PATH enviroment var

Not to mention you have the wrong path for devkit in its entierty or its not installed at all

Actually I thought I read base_rules, ya its libnx or whole devkit

Just use the Pacman package manager that comes with devkitPro. The latest install does all the work for you. It just got updated a few hours ago. Don't use WSL and don't work harder than you have too

[QUOTE = "Fadi5555, post: 8024427, membro: 439396"] Speriamo davvero di ottenere il supporto a schermo intero. [/ QUOTE]
in that case I'll have to resize the file ...

Still getting another error, even when I set up libnx, msys2 and everything else:
Code:
[email protected] MSYS /c/devkitPro/devkitA64/projects/RetroArch/Cores/beetle-ngp-libretro-master
$ make platform=switch
/bin/sh: git : commande introuvable
Makefile:231: /opt/devkitpro/libnx/switch_rules: No such file or directory
make: *** Aucune règle pour fabriquer la cible « /opt/devkitpro/libnx/switch_rules ». Arrêt.
