# Ryujinx [![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/ssg4jwu6ve3k594s?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/gdkchan/ryujinx)

Experimental Switch emulator written in C#

Don't expect much from this. Some homebrew apps work, and Puyo Puyo Tetris shows the intro logo (sometimes) but that's about it for now.
Contributions are always welcome.

**Building**

To build this emulator, you need the .NET Core 2.0 (or higher) SDK. https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/
In release builds, memory checks are disabled to improve performances.

Or just drag'n'drop the *.NRO / *.NSO or the game folder on the executable if you have a pre-build version.

**Features**

 - Audio is partially supported (glitched) on Windows but you need to install the OpenAL Core SDK.
https://openal.org/downloads/OpenAL11CoreSDK.zip

 - Keyboard Input is partially supported:
   - Arrows.
   - Enter > "Start" & Tab > "Select"
   - Qwerty: 
     - A > "A" (QWERTY) / Q > "A" (AZERTY)
     - S > "B"
     - Z > "X" (QWERTY) / W > "X" (AZERTY)
     - X > "Y"
     - Key_Up > "Right Stick Up"
     - Key_Down > "Right Stick Down"
     - Key_Left > "Right Stick Left"
     - Key_Right > "Right Stick Right"
     - I > "Left Stick Up"
     - K > "Left Stick Down"
     - J > "Left Stick Left"
     - L > "Left Stick Right"
     - Tab > "Minus"
     - Enter > "Plus"

**Help**

If you have some homebrew that currently don't work on the emulator, you can contact us through Discord with the compiled NRO/NSO (and source code if possible) and then we'll make changes to make the requested app / game work.

**Running**

To run this emulator, you need the .NET Core 2.0 (or higher) SDK.
Run `dotnet run -c Release -- path\to\homebrew.nro` inside the Ryujinx solution folder to run homebrew apps.
Run `dotnet run -c Release -- path\to\game_exefs_and_romfs_folder` to run official games (they need to be decrypted and extracted first!).
