Nintendo Switch emulator Ryujinx will be changing its release system, due to a problem with its current set up. AppVeyor has previously been hosting Ryujinx and has allowed for users to automatically update their builds whenever a new release is out. However, you won't be able to do that anymore, until you manually download the latest release, 1.1.3, which will now be hosted via GitHub Releases. Some may get a popup as well, regarding an update error, which is also solved by going to the Ryujinx site and grabbing the 1.1.3 build.

As @appveyor took our project down for unknown reasons, we were forced to switch to a new release system.

You will need to manually download the new Ryujinx version (1.1.3) to switch to the new release system:https://t.co/eNMtHZxwgR

Thank you for your patience.

Emulator takedowns? This is new, or at least not seen in a long long time.

Nintendo ninja's at it again...

 

[urbanman2004]

Anybody use Ryujinx b/c I don't? I prefer YuZu since it has more ease of use.

Yes, let's all bash Nintendo for no good reason. Meanwhile those of us who know better are using Yuzu anyway.

I use Ryujinx. Yuzu is very broken. How is Yuzu easier to use? Its filled with settings like accuracy and stuff like that.

Ryujinx would stutter for me compared to YuZu which I noticed especially on Super Mario Galaxy [w/in SM3DAS] from the sequence in the Village area w/ the toads when all the comets are coming from the sky and on Super Mario 3D World when you're challenging Bowser on a Boss level where he's in his "Cadillac" and he's throwing soccer balls at you. And my gameplay in Super Mario Galaxy was hindered b/c the game's audio was borked from my recollection.

thing is "why"? it has no copyrighted code to my knowlege this is leaving a bad taste with me like discords "no distributing cheats" rule in their TOS where only one mere country (Japan) has an actual ban on it

 

[diggeloid]

Appveyor sucks anyways. Gitlab Pipelines would be better since it's open source and can be self-hosted, but Github is a good alternative just because it means Microsoft is footing the bill for it

 

[AshuraZro]

Getting into an argument in record time over which emulator is better seems like a silly things. I think its crazy awesome there are two significant switch emulators in the first place!

Regarding the project getting pulled without notice or explination, that is a shitty thing to do when you should remember that developers are supposed to be the customers on the platform in the first place.

If you dont have a complete shader cache you get stutters

Ryujinx is generally slower than yuzu in most games, and each emulator has games that work better than in the other one.
It's dumb to choose one over the other at this point, they both have their use.

 

[spotanjo3]

It doesn't matter. Two emulators are better than one. Test either one to suit you the best.

 

[bowlofspiders]

The only way to get one of those (legally) is to play through the game yourself at least once meaning you have to endure a sub-par experience.

Since that is the case then first-time playthroughs on Ryujinx aren't nearly as good as yuzu. Whenever they add faster shader caching it'll alleviate this problem.

Appveyor became shit throughout the years.

i use ryujinx, way faster on my machine and more stable, yuzu has lots of problems specially with newer or heavier titles, crashes, glitches and less accuracy in general. And its devs can't handle shit emojis. Yuzu is overrated, 22k on patreon while ryjinx makes 2k and it's just better.

Ryujinx can't even play Animal Crossing the majority of the time without a save file to bypass the start of the game.

Both are good and you should honestly try your games on both to see which is better.

 

[Noctosphere]

WHY DID THEY DO THAT??!?!?!?!
IT'S LEGIT BUSINESS!!!!

 

[felindamuliadi]

I wonder how Nintendo Ninja filed the DMCA if it was indeed the cause.
Like 'look they are putting emu on your site'
'But it's just emu not the real thing'
'Yea but it does the same thing and I'mma lose sales coz of that'
'... Say no more fam I gotchu'

 

[MarioKid666]

I am not sure the Nintendo Ninjas have anything to do with this situation

I only say what i say because i use both , on the latest version (yuzu pineapple). Of course there's games that runs better on yuzu... just sharing my experience with the majority of the games i tried while seeking to have better experience than on my switch while at home.
