uDaemon

0.3.5

1 year ago

Changelog

uLaunch

  • Updated for latest Atmosphere (v1.5.1) and libnx

  • Fixed support for certain games, like Nintendo Switch Online titles

0.3.4

0.3.3

Changelog

Nothing new, just recompiled with latest libnx and Atmosphere, which was needed for the latest Atmosphere release

Again, since were there no changes at all, no uViewer binaries are provided

0.3.2

2 years ago

Changelog

uLaunch

  • Most of the code was rewritten or cleaned up, which might mean slightly faster load times, etc.

  • Reinstalled/never launched titles can be launched properly (until now, they had to be launched first on regular qlaunch in order to work)

  • Other minor internal changes, fixes, etc.

uMenu

  • Updated with last libnx, Plutonium and Atmosphere. This (mostly Plutonium changes) might also slightly better performance.

  • Atmosphere's info is shown now along with the system firmware (like with regular qlaunch)

uViewer

  • No changes (not providing new release binaries)

0.3.1

2 years ago

Changelog

uLaunch

  • Compiled with latest Atmosphere libraries, effectively supporting up to 1.1.1 and 13.0.0 firmware
  • Slightly reduced the main menu's memory size from 192MB to 176MB. Previously, certain applets would crash due to lack of memory (for instance, swkbd when editing a user's name on the user page), and thanks to this memory reduction these issues are fixed now.
  • Fixed a bug where launching a title when another one is opened would fail due to not waiting until the opened title actually exits.

uViewer and RetroArch plugin

  • Nothing was changed, only the version number was updated.

0.3

2 years ago

Changelog

uLaunch

  • Updated with last libnx and Atmosphere.

  • Now, instead of always overriding certain applets (if you had uLaunch on your SD), uLaunch makes use of ECS to launch its processes over a certain applet, so that the applet can be used normally when the process isn't launched.

  • The internal comunication system between uLaunch's processes has changed internally and made more fast and efficient.

  • Several bugs/issues with older versions were fixed.

USB support

  • USB support is back (it was temporarily removed the last release due to weird technical issues)

  • USB now supports an alternative system, which is available under certain circumstances (having patches enabling it being on >10.0.0) and which is significantly faster.

uMenu

  • When launching homebrew as applications, uMenu won't make use of the internal flog system application it used to use (which might have been risky for potential bans). Instead, making use of ECS (mentioned above), after a donor title has been selected by pressing up, homebrew can easily be launched over that application like normal Atmosphere does. Note that you won't be able to launch homebrew over an application unless you select that application as the donor application.

  • HOME menu pressing is properly supported on the different menus. For instance, pressing the HOME button inside the settings menu will make it return to the main menu.

  • The default theme design was reworked, giving it a more dark/purple-ish style, in order to make it more uniform and consistent with the project's logo.

uViewer

  • The RetroArch entry creator plugin was updated to work with the latest RetroArch installation.

It's been a while, but it's finally here! Have fun with a custom HOME menu!

0.2.1

4 years ago

Changelog

This a basic version to support latest libnx and Atmosphere, so not many features were added.

General

  • Added support for latest Atmosphere, libstratosphere and libnx, fixing potential bugs they all could have had.

USB viewer

  • USB viewing has been force-disabled for this version, since it is completely broken.
  • Fixed a bug where homebrew couldn't be launched from main menu, even in applet mode, when there is an application suspended.

  • Added the option to rename folders by pressing X on the main menu (with the folder selected)

Next release will be way more complete ;)
