Rayman Runs with 10 to 15 fps max on the switch but its nice to see those Graphics running
Wait how did you get Rayman to run in pcsx-rearmed? I have been having issues, tried everything but because it's got multi-track BINs it won't work properly. Freezes right at the beginning.
EDIT: Did not realise you meant the Jaguar core.

Any reason why when I scan for games, I get double/triple of a certain SNES game, but it will "not load due to it not being on the playlist", iirc. Because I do not have it on my sd card.

I am only using a few select SNES games, and they're no intro, so they all show up. Along with the mystery games I didn't add. Thanks!
Are you using a Mac to put the game onto the sd cards? If so it's possible there's hidden files on your sd card. If you use the command "dot_clean ." on your SD card that might fix the problem, only if you're using a Mac obviously.

Would JIT or Vulkan or openGL help with the issue that pcsx-rearmed can't handle more than 2 or 3 multi-track BIN games?

How to Exit RetroArch when booting through the nsp forwarder?? Using "Close RetroArch" in the GUI doesn't work, I can only Exit via the home button, but I thought this shouldn't be done?!?

Is anyone else having issues with fast forward?

With the older RetroNX version I had no problem using it with gambette but ever since I installed the full release it doesn't increase the game speed at all.

I am having the same problem. Fast forward seems to have no effect on 1.7.5
Rewind works okay
Using the gambatte core

I just tested Rayman on DOSBox and it works pretty great, even if menus and loading screens are kind of slow, the game itself runs great. Just remember to change your input method to Keyboard+mouse and do some keybinding stuff the way you want it, and you also have to change your CPU cycle setting to 10 000 (1 000 is too slow and 100 000 is also slower than 10 000 in-game)
If anyone want to play it on DOSBox (even if it seems easier to setup the PSX version) just ask me I can do a small tutorial
Yes please do a small tutorial! I am having so many issues with this and your help would be VERY appreciated.

I am not. Windows 10. I'll try to mess around with it after work. Only thing I can think of right now is to erase all the games, rescan the directory, then re-add the games / scan again.

So i loaded the psx core and it causes my switch to crash, now im unable to launch my cfw anymore any ideas?

You have to reinject the payload. Unfortunately, CFW for the Switch isn't permanent unless you want to put your system on the line with a hardmod. Anytime the Switch is turned off or restarted as it normally would be done when it's not hacked, you must use whatever method to get CFW onto the Switch from another device that's injected while the Switch is in RCM mode.

Yeah i know that and have tried but on injecting the payload i get the ReiNX splash screen and then a black screen with the battery low icon in the top left, i have tried charging the battery but still get the same issue

Is this the smell of exfat in the air?
