Thank you @SciresM !

 

great I didn't like this album anyway

 

I've been partying since yesterday when I saw this on Twitter.
I really want to use homebrew ASAP... yeah I will probably run RetroArch mostly.
Probably I will party yet again when they get the PPSSPP core working well also, and play P3P once again.
Yeah, I can do all of that on my non-Nintendo tablet already, don't judge me.
(but my 8bit-do controller stopped working suddenly and I am sour to play anything on my tablet without it anyway)

 

You should realize that with so much noise going on lately in the forums important threads and posts get lost like a needle in a haystack. That, unless they get promoted to news or something. Somebody should have written a news post for Hekate IMHO.
I kind of heard Hekate here and there, but I thought it was perhaps just another Linux build people were playing with and didn't dig into it. Anyway, thanks for the info, I will look into it now.

 

Great Progress!

Does anyone already know how emunand will be implemented?

Rawdump, or specific partitions? I would like to backup my nand for later emunand-use

 

Just one more month.

 

if this gets relesed then what will it be called.

 

If by chance PPSSPP becomes a thing on the Switch, I will sell my PS Vita (on henkaku enso) without hesitation. I barely touch the thing nowadays...size does matter!

 

What is hekate anyways? Briefly heard about it, but I thought it was just a back up tool... The Switch shot off like a rocket in the scene. Working Linux... Various devs working on other custom code... Oof..

 

I should read more on it, but what I understood is that it is kind of a bootloader that you can use to boot directly into the Hombrew loader, no matter your Firmware version, using the Fusee Gelee exploit (i.e. shorting pins and sending an exploit by USB). Not sure how to use it though. I should read about it.

EDIT: actually it required FW 5.0.x, it booted into the OS and you could get into HBL through the album icon, but many homebrew software didn't work anyway (e.g. RetroArch cores back then) because they weren't compatible with the latest firmware somehow. I am editing this to avoid causing more confusion.
