Homebrew WIP melonDS for Switch

[zenjiki]

do other games work for you?

I only have about 5 games that I tried, most of which people have mentioned that they work like wario ware, castlevania, mario kart. I’ll try again tomorrow when I have more time.

100
I bumped it from 32 up for people like you before releasing it, sorry it's a debug ui. The number is quite arbitrary, I just wanted a limit, because I don't know how much the gui library can handle.

if the features and improvements reach the stability that they can be integrated into the main developement branch of melonDS, from which melonDS retroarch is derived. For now they're separated.

if those games you mentioned don't work then there's likely something wrong with your setup

IDK what I am doing wrong but every game except Metal Slug 7 is slow for me, even Mario Kart DS and Phantom Hourglass which were reported full speed are slow for me and yes, I'm running at Max clockspeeds.

This has been my experience too, Warioware and Yoshi's Island are perfect, everything else so far has been less than fullspeed. including Mario Kart and Phantom Hourglass. I'll have to test more "2d" games.

on what firmware version's are you both?

I'm on FW9.0

 

[catlover007]

I'm on FW9.0

my overclocking code >=8.0 might not be working

 

[ploggy]

my overclocking code >=8.0 might not be working

maybe that's it then, it feels like changing the overclock setting makes no difference for me.

Phantom Hourglass
Full speed

 

[jammybudga777]

Phantom Hourglass
Full speed

Original clock speed or overclocked?

 

[catlover007]

the overclocking code for newer os versions turned out to be indeed not right.

I hope it works now, since I'm not eable to test it:
