The 3D renderer doesn't use the builtin triangle drawing functionality melonDS's OpenGL renderer does, thus it doesn't have issues like it ( penGL). This release is a big one, because we finally hit fullspeed in most games including 3d ones! This is all thanks to the new 2D and 3D renderers which run on your Switch's GPU (which previously was only used for the GUI and putting the video output onto the screen) instead of CPU. Just a few bug fixes (the pendulum on the title screen in Chrono Trigger, several things in Mortal Kombat and a freeze in Pokemon Platinum, likely also in Diamond/Perl).
ROM files can be placed anywhere on the sd cardįor DS mode the following files are necessary (in parantheses is how they should be named for melonDS to recognises them):įor DSi mode the following files are necessary (in parantheses is how they should be named for melonDS to recognises them):įor information on how to dump those files from your own DS or DSi see here:. NAND, BIOS and firmware files go into /switch/melonds as well. Extract the release onto your sd card, so that there's /switch/melonds folder melonds.nro and some other files inside it. Download the latest release from here:. If you don't know what that means: press R while starting any game from the Switch's main menu to enter the hbmenu, don't use the album! Since Release 5 the JIT recompiler isn't enabled by default, so make sure to enable (under Emulation Settings), since the interpreter is pretty slow.Ītmosphere title replacement to launch the hbmenu is the only supported method of running melonDS! Chrono, Magus, and company are joined by no less than Trunks and Samurai Jack, two charismatic characters who'll also cause havoc among the enemy with their swords.Ĭhrono Killer is a fun arcade beat'em up that will especially appeal to fans of Chrono Trigger, one of the most beloved RPGs of the 16-bit era.For those coming from older versions of my port, using the /melonds directory located at the sd card root is still possible. They all also have a special magic attack capable of sweeping the screen of enemies. So while Chrono uses his katana, Marle will use his powerful crossbow, and Luca her characteristic pistol. In each of these scenarios, you'll obviously find enemies fitting in with the period.Įach of the characters you can control has both normal and special attacks.
Chrono Killer is a beat'em up where players control all the legendary Chrono Trigger characters, along with a few guest stars, to prevent the world from coming to an end – again.Īs in the original Chrono Trigger, players travel to different historical periods: pre-history, the Middle Ages, the present, the future, and others.
