News Ryubing: Stable & Canary Releases, Infrastructure Update

173 Upvotes

Hi guys! I've come to make an unofficial statement based on happenings within the Ryubing Discord server and provide some clarity on what's going on with Ryubing.

Ryubing's server is hosted in Kyiv, Ukraine. This is where the data is hosted for the Forgejo server (git.ryujinx.app), which supplies the emulator and source code for its users.

As of September 23rd, 2026, this server has been unresponsive.

At first, it was thought that there was some sort of outage, but the host provider confirmed that a Russian missile strike against Ukraine knocked power out to the data center. This is a recent military strategy change, they started targeting data centers and IT infrastructure to further isolate and damage Ukraine. According to the provider, they're looking to move the servers and customer data to a new data center, but this is taking time, as they're performing risk assessments and calculations to ensure that a disruption like this doesn't happen again.

As a result, it's unclear when Ryubing's server will come back up. I'm confident that they will return eventually, but for now, users are without an option to view or download the source or the emulator itself.

I have an active archive of Ryubing that I'd like to share with you all; it's updated to the latest commit, and I put together builds for the latest Stable (1.3.3) and Canary (1.3.351) releases. I had to modify some of the source to get it to compile correctly, as the nuget server that hosts LibHac is also the same server that hosts the Forgejo (and as previously established, it is offline).

Source: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/Ryubing
Stable: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/-/packages/generic/ryubing/stable-1.3.3
Canary: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/-/packages/generic/ryubing/canary-1.3.351

On October 5th, Greem brought up a second instance of the verifier bot, so at least you can still verify in their server. Please do not ask them for help with these builds, they are technically unofficial.

If you want to build Ryubing for yourself, I would recommend changing line 7 in nuget.config to use this instead:

cs <add key="LibHacAlpha" value="https://nuget.ryulynx.org/v3/index.json" />

Or you can host your own using our source archive: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/LibHac_Ryubing

Hope this helps a couple of devs at least!

edit: since i was the one that uploaded the Citron archive to Ryubing's server in the first place, i was able to upload that archive to our forgejo as well

Source: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/citron
Final Release: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/-/packages/generic/citron/zeph-does-it-again
PGO: https://starforgejo.dev/archive/-/packages/generic/citron/pgo

so if you're looking for citron 0.11.0 for nx-optimizer, you can find it here

edit: Kenji-NX and MeloNX are also here. MeloNX has builds uploaded, we're still working on Kenji-NX, but you can always compile from source!

Question Any way to toggle fast forward on Yuzu? (Pokémon Brilliant Diamond)

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, is there any way to get a fast-forward toggle working on Yuzu? I'm playing Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and I really don't feel like sitting through all the dialogue, especially while shiny hunting! Does anyone have a fix? I've already tried several solutions I found online (Cheat Engine, speed-up mods, unlocking V-Sync + Ctrl+U), but none of them worked. Any help would be really appreciated

Question Why has Switch 2 emulation not made the recently fast progress that PS5 emulation has?

255 Upvotes

I keep seeing major improvements with PS5 emulation recently like everyone else - Demon Souls & Astrobot working relatively well on PC for example. Also REA is very popular at the moment with decomps.

Why haven't I seen the same progress with Switch 2? Can't AI figure it out considering how quickly PS5 emulation has come?

News Got Nintendo Switch Sports (incl. 1.5.0 / Basketball) fully playable on a custom suyu build: fixed device-lost crash, black textures, update loading and Joy-Con motion

15 Upvotes

Hey all! I've been working on getting Nintendo Switch Sports running properly on suyu, and it's now fully playable on my machine, including the 1.5.0 update with Basketball. I'm sharing the build in case it helps anyone.

What was broken, and what I fixed:

  1. VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST crash right after the "press a button" screen (and black textures on OpenGL). The game initializes its indirect draw arguments with a vertex shader that writes through a table of GPU pointers, which the shader recompiler can't express. Those writes were silently dropped, so later draws used garbage counts (billions of triangles), the GPU timed out, and the device was lost. The emulator now performs that initialization itself before the draw.
  2. Update 1.5.0 booted to a black screen. The command-line frontend never registered the base game's NCA, so the update's patched RomFS was never applied and the 1.5.0 code ran against 1.0.0 data. I verified the fix against a LibHac-based reference reader (all game reads match). Updates can now also be loaded straight from a folder, without installing them.
  3. Joy-Con swings barely registering (Basketball throws, flicks). Each Joy-Con report contains 3 IMU samples, but only 1 was used. The build now delivers all 3, spaced 5 ms apart like real hardware, and the sensor clamps match the Joy-Con's limits (2000 dps / 8 G). Shooting and jumping in Basketball now register consistently.
  4. Bonus: portable mode actually works when moved. Storage paths inside the emulator folder are now saved as relative paths, so you can move or copy the folder.

Tested on: Windows 11, RTX 3060 Laptop (driver 617.42), Vulkan, GPU accuracy High, async shaders on, Joy-Cons via suyu's built-in Joy-Con driver. Menus, Basketball, and the other sports I tried all run fine. Expect brief stutter the first time new areas load (shader compilation), which goes away once they're cached.

Download (emulator only): https://modsfire.com/Yp5z35B49Ui0W9N

⚠️ The download contains only the emulator: no keys, no firmware, no games. You need to dump those from your own Switch. Please don't ask for them here.

Feedback is welcome, especially from people on AMD/Intel GPUs, since I've only been able to test on NVIDIA. Thanks!

Question How can I get TotK to look as good as possible. (For my system) Additional stuff besides NX Optimizer.

20 Upvotes

So I decided to start playing TotK again in anticipation for OoT Remake (excited is an understatement!!! Gitty as a kid!)

Anyway, currently, the only mod I’m using is NX Optimizer. Being able to change the shader presets to clarity, or balance definitely help, and while it looks and runs great, I’ve seen screen shots and vids of other people who have the game looking truly amazing.

I’m wondering about 4k texture packs, and other tweaks in Nvidia settings.

I’m using a 4060 8gb, so I know it’s the the best gfx card by any means, but I got the game running at 70-80fps most of the time at 1440 — I wouldn’t mind sacrificing a bit of fps for even better graphics.

Any tips on Nvidia control panel settings, extra mods, texture packs, or maybe things I’m not even thinking of?

Currently using:
Ryubing 1.3.3
TotK ver 1.1.2
Firmware prodkeys 18.01

System:
AMD 7060x
4060 8gb
32gb ddr5 6600
120hz monitor.

Question Retroid Pocket 6 or Switch Oled/Lite

3 Upvotes

So, I have never had the chance to ever play a switch, and I am really wanting to get one. The reason is because I have a PC, however I never get to play because my older sibling is always on it before me. So I want a switch, I’ve been looking and I’ve seen and researched many things. The Oled and Lite Switch are the main things, and the Retroid Pocket 6. The main drawback from the Switch is the game costs, for the main games I want to play, (BoTW, Mario Odyssey, Cup Head, Tony Hawk, Mario Galaxy, etc). These are all 50+ dollars, but with the RP6 I can emulate, but I know there are glitches and things that need to be tinkered with, and I’m fine with that. However, is the tinkering going to take up a lot of time to where I want really even get to ever play a game all the way through?

(Also, I am open to modding the switch if I get one, but that would be later down the line when I feel like it is the right time to get a mod chip installed).

Lastly, my main games are all switch because I already have a modded 2DS that I can play my other DS games, I would also like playing GameCube.

Question Cutscene fix for TOTK

1 Upvotes

I’m aware botw/TotK questions have been beaten like a dead horse but, after a few year hiatus, if your not following the emulation community closely, things change. Rapidly.

Last time I got TOTK to run, just about perfectly, was over 2 years ago. I still have the same pc setup, but I had to reset my system and suffice to say I lost my emulation stuff I didn’t backup.

I used to used Ryujinx, which ran like a charm (albeit with tons of mods)

Now, the project is called ryubing, and there is a the NC optimizer mod that supposedly takes care of BotW and TotK flawlessly. Also, many people say Eden is at the top as far as emulators…

Regardless, the hardest part last time (and again this time) is getting the game’s cutscenes to run at normal speed… I’m using Ryubing, NX optimizer and an old cutscene mod I found.

I have a decent system, it’s not like it slow end or anything , but I just can’t find a solution to fix the cutscenes with ryubing.

Tried Eden, but Eden has everything running double speed at all times.

Im using firmware 18.00 and ver 1.1.1 for TotK. Can anyone point me in a one and done solution?

Specs : AMD 7600x,
Nvidia 4060 8gb
32gb ddr5 6600 mhz
120 hz monitor

Edit: Found the cause (feel stupid) didn’t realize the prodkey file I had didn’t match my firmware. Updated both to 18.01 and instantly fixed.

Note: While setting uncapped frame rate works fine in game - still causes the cutscene issue, so I just capped it at 60 and menu at 30.

Question Best Totk emulator

18 Upvotes

Hi everyone, years ago I played Breath of the Wild on PC by watching the first tutorial video on YouTube and everything went great. A while ago I tried to do the same for Tears of the Kingdom but the result was terrible, horrible graphics and unplayable optimization, I abandoned it after a few hours. Now I'd like to ask you, who are certainly more experienced than me, what you did and what emulator you used to play Totk on PC at a good resolution and frame rate. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me :)

Has anyone else experienced choppy gameplay / audio distortion /static when emulating this? Finally got it to at least run last night and NO MATTER what I change or do it still is choppy, looks like shit, and has severe audio issues. I was using eden, but ran better on the latest nightly build. Wondering if anyone could point me in a good direction to make the game run smooth without audio issues. I ran totk a week after release @ 2k 120fps so this is strange

PC specs are fine. Using a 7900gre, R5 7700x with 32 gb ram

FIXED

I saw a few tutorials on how to do it and they all told me to take a game with steam remote play, delete all files and create a .exe from a .bat that makes it run the emulator, but whenever I launch the game it opens the console for a split second and shows me this error. What did I do wrong?

Hi everyone,

Just thought I'll share this here. I used the existing 60 fps static fps patch for Astral Chain and converted it into a fully dynamic one. What this means is that the game runs at correct speed on any frame rates ranging from 15 to 480 FPS.

Just an FYI this is still experimental so let me know if you encounter any issues at github.

Edit: The cut scenes are also fixed and never go out of sync.

Question Ryujinx stopped working, not sure why

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hey guys, not sure if this is the right place but I couldn't find anywhere else. I was downloading mods for smash, but after a certain point Ryujinx stopped launching games. It still works for other games, and it runs smash when Atmosphere is disabled, but once it's enabled (even with no mods), it stops working again. I've attached an image of what I think the problem area is, but I can provide the whole log file in the comments if it's required. Thanks!

For some extra information, may or may not be relevant:

-smash was initially on 13.0.4, but i thought i might need to update it to 13.0.5, so i tried that. did not help.

-i updated my firmware and prodkeys to 22.5.0.

-smash will run if i right click Smash, select "manage mods", and disable Atmosphere.

Question Zelda BOTW save file without DLCs?

3 Upvotes

I’m searching for a 100% save file of botw, but WITHOUT the expansion packs progression (only main game finished basically). I’ve already seen many save files editors, but often you cannot edit the story progression. So does anybody have a main game 100% save file that can share?
