This is literally why I bought a brand new switch and sold it to my brother 8 days later. I didn’t realize they were locked behind an expansion pack purchase AND a subscription and only having 10 games. 2 of which I wanted to play. I was planning on buying the switch and 8-10 games individually. Then realized I could take that same money and put it into a steam deck and play every N64 game ever. Also every GameCube, ps1/2/3 game, and nearly any game imaginable.

Simple64 uses the Parallel RDP plugin which is one of the biggest breakthroughs on N64 emulation It's as accurate as Angrylion (Software Renderer plugin) but it's uses your GPU (but requires Vulkan API support) and unlike Angrylion you can actually upscale the resolution
@johnfrankster3244 Жыл бұрын
Ya bro but unlike retroarchs mupen64plus next, has limited plugin support is less accurate & doesnt support hd texture packs because gliden64 isnt available as a plugin. Even on deck id probably take Rosalies mupen over simple, its closer to project64 which has always been the competition on windows to the mupen64plus next core. As a final note the mupennext-core actually offers the RDP Plugin as a choice of core options lol.

So my ROMS directory is set to the desktop, which I dont think should be an issue. That's the only thing I did different, but when I test the Parser I get this: Error encountered while reading user configurations! SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input Testing "simple64" parser (SRM version - 2.3.52 Non-Portable). Operating System is "Linux 5.13" Im not sure what any of this means. My other issue is when I click on Generate Apps List on the Steam ROM it keeps giving me a message to please shut down Steam if it is running. How do I shut the Steam application down on the deck?

It shows up "N64 Pro Controller" when i connect it via Bluetooth. then when i look at the provided layout of what controller they have on screen. it looks like a regular game pad. idk, if u could maybe recommend a tutorial, or maybe point me in the right direction, i would greatly appreciate it. i love everything you do, and enjoy your content. thank you so much, this has been a battle for me since i got the deck a couple months ago
