Homebrew WIP NXCord - Unofficial Discord Client

[Grarak]

NXCord

This is an unofficial discord client for the Nintendo Switch. Follow the steps at https://github.com/Grarak/NXCord.
Downloads + Changelogs are here: https://github.com/Grarak/NXCord/releases
If you notice bugs which are not mentioned here, let me know. It also helps when you send me logs, which are located in /config/nxcord/, but you probably want to look at them yourself, they might contain sensitive information!

Thanks for posting the link.

I just added support for sending voice. So UDP connection is actually working now.

This is excellent work, it would be a great add on yes I like it.

Any risk getting banned from discord using this ?

Custom clients are against the tos and iirc people got banned for using vitacord but I haven't heard of any bans for that in a while. I'd use caution if you care about your account.

Edit: See Grarak's response below.

IIRC VitaCord doesn't use Websockets so they spammed Discords Servers with h t t p calls. My implementation should be fine, but if you want to be extra cautious you could generate a bot and use that.

Can anyone build this and send it to me please because I am not informed enough on how to do it on my own but want to test out the Discord client.

This is for devs only right now.

Also receiving audio is done.
Just have to implement microphone now and make it work as sysmodule.

I just got it working as a sysmodule.
Here is the whole thing in action

[Grarak]

Most of the things are done now. Just needs an UI.

 

[Grarak]

I just uploaded the first release. Check OP for more information!

 

[Grarak]

So v0.2 is ready and uploaded to github (Check OP for links). This now works as a sysmodule!

 

[Grarak]

v0.4 is on github! I've added support for the tesla overlay, allowing you to change the audio volume of individual participants in voice channel. I also added audio settings, just press Y to open the menu. There are still bugs, therefore I'd recommend you to read through the github page https://github.com/Grarak/NXCord

If you need help to setting up a bot, the github page will guide you as well.

Love the app. works well. had some issues with pokemon sword at first but just found that you need to connect online in game first before connecting to the voice channel afterwards. love the tesla overlay feature too. Thanks

It's seems like an interesting project
I've noticed in the project tab that you are planning to add discord rich presence in the future, you may want to get in touch with https://github.com/Sun-Research-University/SwitchPresence-Rewritten before you write everything from scratch

Hi, i was about to test out NXCord but while I try to log me in I get "Failed to parse login response". Am I missing some steps? I downloaded and enabled the sysmodule and rebooted the Switch. I'm on 9.2.0 (Atmosphere 0.10.5).
Thanks!

This homebrew project is abandoned?
There is no more update and I cannot launch it on my CFW Atmosphere 18.1.0.
Thank you for all
