This bundle ported Hades II from scratch on a clean Windows setup; the other games were checked with v0.1.0's bundles (docs/PORT_STATUS.md).
Before you start
- Your own files only. You need the game's files and
prod.keysdumped from your own Switch. The tool never ships or downloads either, and ported APKs must not be shared: they contain the game. - GPU: Adreno (Snapdragon) or Xclipse (Exynos 2200 and later). Mali and PowerVR cannot run these games.
- NSZ files must be decompressed to NSP first.
New in this release
- Hades II (update 1.0): the title, saves, the Crossroads and runs with combat, at 60 fps as on the Switch.
- Text and pictures the game draws from the CPU into linear textures now show (Hades II's text, title art and movies were blank).
- Lights no longer flicker or go out in turn: two fixes for Adreno's early depth culling.
- The frame rate no longer drops to 40 fps after a loading screen (fights in Hades II began at 40).
nx2android v0.1.0
The first release you can use without programming: download, unzip, start nx2android.exe.
