Homebrew RELEASE Development Thread - RetroArch libnx

[aboreal]

Filter support like CRT easymode would be so cool in retronx. It improves the graphics so much

I think It would be great if they manage to adapt shaders-filters running full speed. I personally like to use HQ4x and 4xBRZ on retrogames.

Cheers!

Any talk of when it's gonna hit the "buildbot" nightlies?

Also, I really want to be able to play my PSP roms on it. I'm ready to sell my vita and have one device.

We're just gonna have to wait for PPSSPP to get ported, which should hopefully be sometime soon.

Where do I get my hands on the new version?

M4xw is the nicest dev I've seen, always answering stupid questions without being rude..
You got skills, stay humble..

I can't donate now but I'll sure will in the future. (donated 15 to the bounty hope you claim it xD )

 

[notimp]

ill donate to you too
just being able to play symphony of the night is enough to buy you a couple beers

Reminder: Donation in order as well.

SotN on retroarch on the switch (ending spoilers, beware), played in 3:2 aspect ratio.

Spoiler

edit:
No letterbox bars patch (see following post):

 

[notimp]

For anyone starting or still playing SotN, this patch ( https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/3606/ ) will get rid of the letterbox black bars, and allow the game to be displayed full screen (still with the aspect ratio of your choice ) on the switch.

Sadly I found out the day I finished the game.

Read the readme, check the md5 hash of your data bin file (hash in the readme is from an unpatched bin), then apply the ppf patch to the data .bin (bin nr1).

Optional:
Then apply the following trick ( https://forums.launchbox-app.com/to...n-and-then-pbp/?do=findComment&comment=277997 ) to make a .cue/.bin with only one .bin, and convert that .cue/.bin using psx2pbp to safe discspace (resulting file will be 400 odd MB). And have only one file (.pbp) containing the game.

I do this with all my PSX isos - works flawlessly.

So we got netplay now, @lifajucejo fixed networking. so as soon we got the buildbot running over at libretro, we might spit out GL builds.

Thanks to the great efforts of people like @natinusala, RetroNX/m4xw and others that we have collaborated with over the past few months or so, we are finally getting ready to have a version of RetroArch for the Nintendo Switch as part of the rolling releases from now on! pic.twitter.com/l5kW67VFpW

Putting some money on the BOUNTY (click) will help! Almost 1k$ guys, let's keep it going
