Ryujinx Switch emulator progress report for September 2023

ryuuuu.png

The Ryujinx emulator team has a new progress report, detailing their work and improvements to the emulator throughout the month of September. A lot of impressive technical work has been put in, offering performance boosts for users on macOS, and some important changes that will improve the LDN local wireless emulation. There's a lot of information in the progress report, including streamlining buffer cache checks, resulting in massive performance increases for Mortal Kombat 1 and R-TYPE FINAL 2. Crysis and Super Bomberman R 2 are also now playable as of the latest build. The Ryujinx developers also tease better implementation and organization of the emulator's LDN feature, coming soon.

The full report is available to read below, on the official Ryujinx site.

Great to see that Switch emulation is doing great. I personally don't really use Switch emulators cause I don't like using an emulator on a currently available system, but I still love to get my ears on the scene of it.

I recently tried out ryujinx to try out mario wonder, and I wasn't expecting much for performance since last time i emulated a switch game was relatively early on in its infancy. But holy shit, they have made some crazy strides since then. Great to see developers still hard at work on these projects!

I keep forgetting about this very forgettable Switch emulator. Has it caught up to Yuzu yet?
it's miles ahead of it

When it comes to accuracy there's nothing like it. Idk why you would insult it like that, it's nothing new that they both perform differently, always did.
I mean even the user made experience is better so not quite sure where yuzu excels tbh.

But can it run Crysis at full speed? :creep:

I feel like the UI is better on Yuzu. It's really in the small things, but I like that whenever I move my sticks, it moves on the UI when setting up controllers. There's no real feedback if your sticks are responding in Ryujinx.
Not counting all the differences but despite that, I still want to like Ryujinx better, tho I use both.

Never heard of it so I just tried it. Looks pretty nice but the complaints I have still stand : no feedback when configuring the controls unlike Yuzu, can't see the sticks or the gyro moving

But it does look great, never thought Ryujinx needed a facelift but that's nice

I love ryujinx. Ryujinx blows yuzu way out of the water. Used to be a yuzu fan until I found out how much progress ryujinx had made, I switched and haven’t looked back. There was software that wouldn’t run on yuzu no matter what I did, but worked on ryujinx without a single hitch.

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022

    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
