ReverseNX

Combination of SaltyNX patches that force games to think that you are using docked or handheld mode.

You can use it to change graphics settings and unlock some options that are available only in docked/handheld mode. For now in experimental phase, because SaltyNX has many bugs that need to be patched.

To download latest SaltyNX, check links at the end of post.

_____________

To use ReverseNX, you need to use ReverseNX-Tool which can be downloaded at the end of this post. Check readme in repo to learn how to use it.

When forcing docked mode, it is recommended to use OC settings exactly as used in docked mode:

handheld_charging_gpu=768
handheld_charging_mem=1600

______________

Known issues:

• SaltyNX is still under development, so it may cause issues on it's own. More in SaltyNX repo.

Is there any way to reduce the amount of Vibration when using ReverseNx? In some games when i'm using dock flag,Vibration is so high for handheld,
This high vibration makes my switch fan louding noise.

Nope.

Is this absolutely safe to use, or will it somehow negatively impact my switch in the long term?

I mean, I cannot imagine that it does since it just replicates docked mode. But is the only reason for nintendo to deactivate this in handheld mode battery life? Or can it somehow damage components over the long time (Like when overclocking)?

For sure design intention was battery life because 768 MHz GPU could potentially damage battery in 2 years of constant usage.

I can't thank you enough for this
Whoever worked on Nocturne HD Remaster needs to get their shit together, there are insane fps drops when the console is docked and you use certain moves (Heat Wave for instance)
Oh, and I also remember the game feeling pretty sluggish in the Amala Network area
Forcing handheld mode makes it look like a PS TV game, but at least the experience is much smoother
Plus you don't have to mess with config files or anything, since ReverseNX-Tool does everything for you c:

Why is it that it still shows handheld mode in sys-clk overlay and uses it's mode when switched to docked mode in reverse-nx-rt and reverse-nx tool of course with system-control turned off. This is, running doom eternal.

Because sys-clk checks mode by asking system.
ReverseNX blocks game access to system for asking about mode and provides what user chose.

I get it. Would you say there is a difference, between using sys-clk and using docked clocks in handheld versus using sys-clk combined with reversenx?

Edit: Also how would I see if the docked profile is active, other than in the tool itself?

Without ReverseNX game won't magically change graphics settings to docked mode just because you changed clocks.

About second one: Who knows...

Will it even run in 1080p, even though the switch display resolution is 720p? I don't really see a difference, hence why I was wondering if it is even active.

If game creates window resolution in docked mode 1080p, then game will be using 1080p window.

Hi. Does this plugin work with fw 11.0.1 atm 0.19.1?

 

[masagrator]

Hi. Does this plugin work with fw 11.0.1 atm 0.19.1?

Yes, it's confirmed working up to 12.0.3

 

[bavuongsc]

Yes, it's confirmed working up to 12.0.3

Thank you for these 60fps mods, it makes performance games and switch not hot, unlike cheats

 

[Crowlanser88]

its not working on 12.10

 

[Crowlanser88]

Do u recommend me to downgrade to 12.3 or wait ?

 

[masagrator]

its not working on 12.10

What you mean by "it's not working"? There was no change in atmosphere and 12.1.0 that should make it not working.

I’m on fw 12.1.0 and atm 19.5
And it’s not working

Are you joking? You just repeated yourself, using different words.
I will assume it's fault with your configuration until someone more reliable will confirm it's also not working for them on 12.1.0.
