Just a simple question: is it legal to release homebrew for the Switch? I know that homebrew itself is probably a grey area and hacking a Switch is illegal, but I don't know if that's the case for the Switch homebrew as well(regarding Nintendo's aggressivity on it)?

Just gave the Switch and Vita builds the Android treatment: the enter key always confirms, while the escape and backspace key on the OSK cancels. This is now implemented in a platform-agnostic way (automatically mapping to the used confirm(A on Switch, Cross otherwise) and cancel(B on Switch, Circle …

Just managed to get the Switch build running! There were still some issues with: - The compilation process itself, which have now been fixed (the Makefile). - Application timekeeping (gettimeofday calls) were not handled due to the Switch not being recognized yet. - Inputs using the incorrect PSP …

After a whole afternoon working I've finally managed to get it properly compiled on the VitaSDK. Although I didn't check the Switch or the result of the app running on the Vita yet (in an emulator). Edit: After some more bugfixing of remaining issues with SDL2 and UniPCemu on the Vita, it's now …

Just implemented the Switch joystick inputs (assumed always existing at index #0) based on https://gbatemp.net/threads/sdl2-joycon-bindings.505099/ . Also implemented the Vita joystick inputs based on comparing the mappings of the vita joystick against the psp joystick. So they should be properly …

Mostly everyting is handled like on Android, except the paths (simply current working directory atm). The PS Vita and Switch builds will assume a static screen …

Anyone knows how to easily add support for the other SDL2 supported platforms while still using the old Makefile format? Currently it has a basic Makefile.files for the local part of the project (SDL2), with bindings to Android studio directly and most SDL2 platforms having bindings using seperate …

So... What if you used the internals of a real CD-ROM drive and just replaced the laser unit with an emulator and then also had a way to make the drive think that a CD had been ejected and a new one put in. The XStation does something like that... And still needs this Intel Cyclone 10 FPGA thing to …

Can't you just take the UniPCemu(hardware/ide.c, which is the most accurate one afaik)/Bochs/Dosbox/etc. IDE byte interface(for the IDE I/O ports) and somehow interface it to the real CPU using a (simple) translation layer like a simple linux-running chip like a Pi? Although you'd need to need to …

Just modified the packet server clients to get two buffers on their incoming packets. One for IPv4 packets and one for other types (PPPOE, IPX (,ARP which is currently unused as it's handled directly without local buffers)). Both buffers are filled using the same condition as previously by the Pcap …

By default DOSBox (and DOSBox-X by extension) claims to be DOS 5.0, which has no support for FAT32 or LFN (Long FileNames). To maintain compatibility with some dos utilities that make assumptions based on the DOS version, it was decided to only make LFN available if the reported DOS version is 7.0 …

Anyone knows exactly why people say that to use TCP/IP on PPP, you'll need to disable the IPX/SPX? Is it because of some bug? Or simply because dial-up servers don't support IPX/SPX? Seeing as at least TCP/IP doesn't work with both enabled atm. And MS-DOS (Arachne) which uses only TCP/IP works fine. …

There are two possible problems you may have run into. 1. it was possibly created as FAT32, and so you need to set your reported DOS version to 7.1 to be able to access it. (ver set 7.1) 2. a bug that was introduced in 0.83.17 that only effects the Windows Visual Studio (VS) build. Either use the …

OK. So I configured the Windows IPX settings, made the 3rd tab of the network connection say the name of the first machine. Then ran Doom 95 again with the "IPX connection to DOS or Mac DOOM" option. Set it to 2 players, default port (1000). Chose new game on the first client, waited for it to get …

Dosbox-X is weird. I use imgmake to create an 2GB image with the -t parameter. Then, running imgmount c diskimage.img throws an error: Copy code to clipboard 1 Cannot create drive from file. However, running "imgmount 2 diskimage.img" works (and "boot-l c" after that)?

With the new ARP handling added, it can reach both the internal network (depending on net mask), host network(if net mask is specified correctly for that, which is seperate from the previous netmask for internal packet server clients) and internet (basically the …
