PPSSPP/Libretro Switch Public Beta by m4xw
==========================================

After a lot of work, I am very happy to share this with all of you.
Audio & Video support works, many core options cause Issues tho.

It is mandatory to "Close Content" after changing any Core option and restarting RetroArch, else it will potentially crash, don't close the RetroArch menu!

Special thanks to hrydgard for everything he has done for the PPSSPP Project.
If you want to support his work, consider buying PPSSPP Gold https://central.ppsspp.org/buygold even if you don't use it!

I will PR it once the libretro port is finished, also implemented half of what's needed for a Standalone port
Source is on my Github, but it's highly WIP and needs a custom RA and a custom ffmpeg, so you should just wait if you want to build it yourself

Installation Instructions
==========================================

Drag & Drop the "retroarch" folder to the root of your SD, overwriting any file (it will not touch any options).
Assets are bundled, so you don't have to bother with that.

Notes
==========================================

If you are using ANY method of loading RetroArch OTHER than Atmosphere's title redirection feature, DO NOT report issues that you encounter.
These issues can skew testing and could very well be caused by loading through an unsupported method.

Video slowdowns are related to missing hardware accelerated decoding (nvdec), it's not a libretro/PPSSPP Issue.
FMV cut-scenes will be fine.

Updates
==========================================

Added JIT and JIT Vertex Decoder Support
- When loading Savestates with JIT, make sure to instantly open the RetroArch Menu again and wait for it to complete loading
- This is a libretro specific bug (not switch port related) and will be fixed later on

==========================================

-Added Vertex JIT Core option (turning it off fixes some games currently)
-Added Disable slow Framebuffer effects Core option (Speedhack)
-Increased Savestate Chunk size to 4MB (speeds up savestate load, ~2sec)
-Band-Aid for Savestate load + Save (no more opening menu for them to work)
-Renamed "IR JIT" to "IR Interpreter"
-Removed Threaded IO Core option (non-functional)
-Removed Non-Buffered Rendering Core option (non-functional)
-General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.

I got that latest version but it crashes playing Fate/Extra CCC on the same point, wether I load a Save State or a savefile through the game.
Is there any update to the last package? Last PC version, 1.16.6 works on that same point.

Here is the savestate just in case.

EDIT: If I try to load a savestate from then next part that loads after this, I get a Failure at MetaFileSystem.

Do you use any textures pack for CCC?
I downloaded the texture pack and after that game not opened. Opening screen had frozen only if I tried the open with texture pack. Don't use any texture pack for CCC.

I playing CCC with 3 hours now and happened minimum issues. Kiara's SG screen slow and that's it. I recommend change some settings to faster options(if there are). I have a vita/psp but I prefer to play nintendo because switch has bigger screen, TV option and almost HD graphics.

kbm, also you can put to psp game folder fate ccc's japanese version too. Both are works with the same same file. If english version crashed in the specific scene, you can load japanese version and after the passed the scene just save it and turn the english version.
It's a problem about modded scene issue in this game. I passed with that way. Also you have to use normal save, you can use quick save on emulator because it doesn't working correctly to switch.

Ciao, scusate il mio inglese, sono nuovo in questo forum, volevo chiedervi se per caso esiste una versione di PPSSPP per Switch che permette di giocare online con server come "Socom.cc" con i miei amici di altri piattaforme come: PC o Android, attualmente sto utilizzando la versione "1.15.4-249-gb5a94388d" per caso puoi aiutarmi?

Well, someone forgot to use Google translate.

 

[Antony30]

Sorry for the error but Google translator didn't copy the translated text for me, I'm new to this forum, I wanted to ask you if by any chance there is a version of PPSSPP for Switch that allows you to play online with servers like "Socom.cc" with my friends from other platforms like: PC or Android, I am currently using version "1.15.4-249-gb5a94388d" can you help me?

Ive just came across this, I fixed this version by running the the nro from "switch/PPSSPP_GL/" (Holding R), then exit out, FTP in and move all the files from the "PPSSPP_GL" folder the the new "ppsspp" folder.
