Homebrew RELEASE Development Thread - RetroArch libnx

All this bickering and nobody's asking the important questions. Does this NSP file fix the corruption problem with exFat? I know it wont fix the underlying factor that exFat is unreliable and that Fat32 is preferred, but from what I've read before data gets corrupted on exFat more likely due to abrupt quitting of homebrew via the home menu and not properly quitting the application. Now that it still runs when the home button is pressed and you can properly(?) quit it by hitting X, shouldn't it help the fact?

I recommend uploading it to xbins..

Still surprised that, supposed, video app hasn't shown up on there or 1 of the Reddit subs that don't give a damn.

Really don't understand the Discord epidemic.

What is the password for the all in one stable package zip file?

 

[Brawl345]

Most homebrew created uses the official sdk on almost all consoles

That is simply not true - they are created with Homebrew SDKs like libogc and libnx. Guess how they are created? Through reverse-engineering! And someone has to do the same with the NSP builder. Using the official SDK was and is never legal.

There shouldn't be a password.

That's expected, at least the 15-ish fps range is consistent it seems

Official RetroNX NSP:
Attention: This causes a active ban risk! Don't use this if you are paranoid!
-snip-

Note: This build is maybe the first build that's completely legal!
It contains to copyrighted files: No tickets. Its not encrypted. No SDK files.
It only has a hash derived of a key and the rights id.
This does not give the key away and is perfectly acceptable.
The Logo Partition files, despite their names are replaced and are not copyrighted in any way!

If a mod has questions, they can PM me freely.

Wow 5 pages full of copyright wars.
However I don't care for the flame war but got your NSP from your RetroNX Discord (thanks for that).

Question: Is it a forwarder to the NRO or would we have to wait for you to rebuild a new NSP for every new RetroNX release?

For now it needs to be rebuild, still uses the cores from your SD card tho.
Anyway lets just move on.

Okay. I guess that's even needed for that (theoretical) memory advantage you mentioned so please keep building NSPs if you do new stable releases at least.

Anyway lets just move on.

Just put the RetroNX Discord invite link in your signature (and/or let it in OP as it is) and keep releasing it there (like anybody else does here lol).

NSP is just a temporary solution till I finished what I am working on

I see you became a magician recently. Now I'm curious what you'll come up with.

Damn really 15FPS? Thats literally almost full speed Oo.
Good Job to anyone involved!
(Idk why it sounds ironic but im serious. OOT for example (PAL) does run @20FPS, but OOT will probably run a bit worse)

A bunch of N64 games ran at 20fps.
OoT was one clear example, I think Conker did too.

I did some reseach, on PAL it was actually 17FPS, pretty painful to play nowadays, the NTSC version is pretty ok.

Homebrew nsps are experimental, and as I made the first one I know that they are still experimental and need some patches on the source code, which are still private.

Why's that?

 

[XorTroll]

Why's that?

Libnx is made to be run as an applet, so when trying directly to load a homebrew it will fail. Some stuff needs to be modified to make them work.

My bold highlighting of your quote didn't stand out as obviously as intended.... why are the patches private?

Oh, because we think it's still too early to start sharing them, as still some apps fail with this patches.
We need to figure out if there's a better way to do this.
