After using your configs from reddit the performance is really good now. I wonder what did I miss, couldn't find a difference...

Anyway, out of curiosity, Is there some kind of shader compilation at work here? I know this from cemu, dolphin, rpcs3, really helped these emulators.

Unfortunately Fzero x still crashes to a horizon error screen like others already mentioned.

Great news and great work!
Thanks for sharing. I've been waiting months to get my hands on this.
Also, is there a public issues tracker? This would prevent people on asking about already know issues on this dynarec and current beta state.

Anyway to get the emulation to pause when you press the home button? Testing with Mario Kart 64 and the race continues when looking at the dashboard.

This is Retroarch coded and happens on every core if using NSP. The pause on home menu access might be implemented in the future but it's not supported as of now.

We will start tracking Issues when it starts to make sense.
I will write a FAQ later on tho.

Tested some more,

Fzero X runs fine, it depends what region your Rom has. Using USA region rom is the best for compatibility it seems.

I guess I'm doing something horribly wrong.
Banjo severely lagging, Kirby lagging a bit and crashing when getting to gameplay, Paper Mario severe slowdown, Pokemon Snap actually ran well, but the game didn't recognize any pictures snapped (but that's apparently an issue with emulating this in general).

I did use the configurations from the download, as well as changed resolution, aspect and toggled integer. no improvements as far as i could tell

So I'll wait for a more complete release

OMFG! Really? Arfghhh, I need my switch right now!

Someone can test Ogre Battle 64, Sin and Punishment, Shadowman and Mischief Makers, please?

Yes, there is. The shader compilation makes the emulator stutter for now when generating cache but it should improve in the future.

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
