Note: This is a pre-release version of the emulator. Expect bugs and glitches that wouldn't make it into regular builds.
Dekopon's eight official release!
This release's goal is to remove the freezing/crashing/performance issues present in the last version of the emulator.
New features:
- Rebased onto the latest Azahar commit
- Performance presets
- The options are default/performance/ultra performance.
- Default is the default shipped settings for that version. Should really just be used for testing.
- Performance is recommended to be used. Provides the best accuracy/performance tradeoff.
- Ultra performance enables everything and has a high likelihood of breaking games.
- You should reboot after changing the preset.
- Menu rotation
- Clear shader cache
- Toggleable anisotropic filtering
- Batched CRO cache invalidations
- Minor performance improvements
- Redone core pinning
- Smaller Vulkan upload buffers
- This frees up ~500MB more for texture packs.
- This also may break some games, but in theory it shouldn't.
- New NXVK version
- The analogue stick can no longer drive the settings menu
Known bugs:
- Emulator still crashes when opening a second time in the same instance of the hbloader.
- There may be a crash/freeze still present when playing games for longer periods of time. Be sure to save often.
