the left image is of a native port recompiled for PC, and the right one is an emulator being developed to run Switch 2 games

So does the decompiled one work yet? I feel like i woildve seen more on this if it did. I will absolutely play it this way once it happens.

The NX2 decomp is currently inferior to the slopulators. Probably multiple decomps by now. Fritchii emulator fork is #1 right now but I think it's only for OOT. It's a fork of Lichii which is a fork of Eglantine which is a fork of Eden which is a fork of Yuzu. I think? My head hurts. Lmao. What's better or not changes every 6 hours.

I tried Fritchii last night after work and it's playable now. The only graphical bug I noticed was some corrupted text box background texture when an NPC is emphasizing something like the Deku Tree boss door combination 2-3-1. Shader stutter and pretty demanding on hardware but I usually stayed above 30FPS in the more graphically intensive areas. Indoors was usually 60fps. Fritchii can cap to 30 if the variable frame rate annoys you.

12th gen core i5 / Radeon 9070XT. I ran Fritchii through Faugus Launcher / Proton-GE because no Linux build. Some have appimages, some are on AUR like another fork called ichii. It's messy.

~~Video cutscenes desync audio on Radeon cards in all forks I've tried so far. ~~

Fritchii fixed desync.

If you're wondering where I'm following progress it's on the /r/decomps subreddit. Which is also posting all these Switch 2 slopulators.

Edit: the subreddit is already getting pressured to stop direct linking to github repos that are Switch 2 related. ~~Nintendo big mad.~~ Actually I think it's just reddit admins being cowards. I've since learned Switch 2 emulators don't use keys or do any decryption, which is what the judge who ruled in Nintendo's favour used to justify taking down Yuzu.

Thanks for the info! Definitely going to look into this soon. I wanna play this and Nintendo made it to hard for average ppl to do that anymore so oh well.

The NX2 decomp is currently inferior to the slopulators.

Depends on what you compare. The code quality and documentation itself is probably better. In the long run, this is more important. But I'm not against for the short term win with slop too. I need both.

It works great but you need a very powerful computer. Was playing lots yesterday.

[–] OddDeer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I've heard several reports that it does! I'm leaving the afternoon free today so I can try to set it up myself.

EDIT: It works! (so far)

I doubt it. I've recently checked whether the Tekken 6 recomp/port for PC was any good, but framerates are abysmal, it's still effectively an emulated game.
