Sometimes when you try to use multiman or webman , isn't open but infinite loading with ps3 hen firmware

Webman mod fan also have some issues with ps3 hen firmware , you need to set manual mode not auto

It's much better option compare with ODE before

I have found that it is that Webman app causing those hangups on HEN. Uninstall Webman and use Multiman, or Irisman only, and no problems! Good luck!

    @BigOnYa well, starting with, idk which emulator should i use for switch, i got a gtx 1650, do you know which one would it better for my pc?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    The switch emulators on pc rely on your CPU mostly, and they only use a single core, so GPU not as important as a good CPU. I don't use switch emulator, but many here do, and willing to help.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 do you want to chime in, don't you use yuzu or ryujinx? Which do you prefer?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Morganna I'd say try them both, and see which work better for your setup, good luck, and have fun!
  • Morganna @ Morganna:
    i tried just yuzu so far, not even played, just open the game to see if it run
