Messed around with retroarch for the first time last night (first on WiiU been using for years on PC).

Any game i start, on any core, runs incredibly slow for the first while. Seems like the whole system pauses for a few seconds every second. Even if i go into the menu while its doing it. After a couple minutes of that the game will run just fine. Is this normal behavior? It's pretty annoying.

As far as shaders.. i updated slang shaders and all i get is the zip on my SD card. Doesn't extract it (Same when i did assets). I found some WiiU specific ones on HunterK's blog and when i try to load them there is nothing to load. Like when I go to select a shader the actual directorys are all there but each folder contains exactly.. nothing to load, lol. Ideas?

    An app exists for Android called Rekado which is a payload injector for the RCM exploit to work. Don't know if it's still active.

    @imafsiry, What method? Phone or RCM Loader?
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @imafsiry You just install Rekado to your phone and then plug your Switch into your phone when it's in RCM mode. Rekado should automatically pop up on your phone and ask which payload you want to send.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @imafsiry You can also set it to auto launch the payload of your choice so no user input is even necessary.

    thats what i use also. works better if you launch hekate from rekado as you won't need to update the payload

  • TotalJustice @ TotalJustice:
    as hekate launches the latest payload on the sd card (unless the sent payload is newer)
