Homebrew WIP melonDS for Switch

[catlover007]

Yes, I always start the album.

you need to start the game while pressing R (or what ever button is specificed in the config file)

Wow I'm amazed by how well this works. I always thought there wasn't a good DS emulator for Horizon yet but this one runs really well.
The only thing missing for me is a way to use the touchscreen when the Switch is docked.

Where can I find the latest update for the RetroArch core?

The build by @catlover007 is the one you need to use: https://gbatemp.net/threads/melonds-for-switch.518300/page-62#post-9077251 The current DS cores on RetroArch don't run well.

"Don't run well" is the soft way to say they are absolute garbage. Hope they keep updating the melon one at least, it currently looks like the most promising emulator for DS.

Wrong, the libretro core is on pair to standalone, it has branch and literal optimizations too.

The version on the RetroArch updater is the latest stable build?

Not when you're stupid and forget to add the bios files. Sorry about that.
There's no touchscreen support though, right?

Don't feel bad, bud. We all are potato brain here, that's the cornerstone of our community.

I updated every single possible file using the RA updater a few hours ago and looks like melon is working slightly better than it was before, and definitely better than the desmume core, which is lost in time at this point.

Yes, but it doesn't work properly with rotation, use standalone instead if u are a flipgrip user.

So it should work normally? I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong then. I'm using the latest nightly build and didn't change any settings.

Thank you so much. It worked like a charm.

Has anyone tried emulating the Megaman Starforce games? How well does it run on this emulator?

I have tested it working fine

Set threaded software renderer ON and branch/literal optimizations ON in core options.

Nice. I love the MMBN series on my GBA but havent played the Star force yet. Thanks

I removed them all in a affect, though that turned out to be pretty stupid. I'm going to make a last release for the time being with all the changes which have accumulated as soon as I get a few things sorted out. Meanwhile, here's the latest release.

Does it work in fw10.0.4 AMS 0.13.0

Yes it does

Has someone tried Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon? There seems to be some glitches with the text but idk if it can be fixed.
