ReverseNX - Flag your console as handheld or docked

ReverseNX_logo_transparent_v4.png

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:
Code:
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.
______________

Thanks to @Kirby567fan and @crow132 for testing.
To @RattletraPM for logo.
To @SunTheCourier for sys-clk Editor on which I have based ReverseNX-Tool >=2.0.0
To Borealis contributors for Borealis which I'm using from 3.0.0

Sabe, imaginei que você entenderia que ainda precisa instalar o reverseNX, já que o modchip não o instala para você, mas, novamente, você é um novato aqui.
yes I'm newbie, I'm learning because I knew about playstation, nintendo is new to me.
sim sou novato, estou aprendendo pois se sabia sobre playstation, nintendo é novidade para mim.

Well, since you have a modchip, I'll assume you also have HBL and know how to run homebrew. Just follow the original post's instructions for installing and using ReverseNX and you should be good. Dunno if it'll increase the resolution on your Lite to 1080p, though. Pretty sure the screen itself is only capable of 720p

I found reverse nx on the console I set it to global docked but there was no improvement in the rendering resolution of the games, some games are very pixelated on sd 480p.

Maybe it's because the Switch Lite doesn't even have the hardware capability to interface with a real switch dock, and also doesn't have the ability to render anything higher than 720p?

Games don't differentiate between different hardwares.
OS supports up to 1080p window without any issue on all hardwares. For handheld it will downscale 1080p window to 720p (Fire Emblem Warriors is 1080p in both modes and works without any issue on all hardwares)
