|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

## New website
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We secretly soft launched our new website during Halloween.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
https://retrodeck.net/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Check it out and give feedback on the Discord on Lemmy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks Adam Iannazzone for all his hard work on contributing his free time to the RetroDECK project and the new website.
|
||
|
|
|

|
## 3DS Emulation - status
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We had secret plans to include Lime3DS into the release of 0.9b.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But the big Citra forks are merging into one, it feels better to wait until they have sorted everything out and get the best release into RetroDECK proper.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Xenia - status
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Instead of pulling in all of Wine into RetroDECK and configure it. We are looking into utilizing [UMU launcher](https://github.com/Open-Wine-Components/umu-launcher) for Xenia instead and other Wine based systems in the future.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This feels like a better approach that can give more synergies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We are waiting for the Open Wine Components Team (Heroic Game Launcher, Lutris, Bottles, Lutris, Proton-GE) to finish up their flatpak version firstly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Merged Cooker
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Several of the big feature branches are now merged into Cooker proper.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But the current cooker now features:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- SRM (Add to Steam)
|
||
|
|
- Godot Configurator
|
||
|
|
- Updated Emulators
|
||
|
|
- PortMaster
|
||
|
|
- Lighter Manifest
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But having one big cooker now will make it easier to test everything in one go.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: That not everything is working at the moment (including some systems).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is still plenty of work to do.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Development is a bit slower
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note that this is a big release with several features that requires coordination of several people that spends their free time doing this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is a huge endeavor and we can't give any ETA's on when 0.9b will be released and done.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Everyone in FOSS have to always balance their commitment to free software and still do everything life entails.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We are looking into when the cooker is a bit more fleshed out and stable too maybe utilize the flathub-beta remote to facilitate easy testing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## That is all for now
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are more things we are working on, but you will see them in future blog updates!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks everyone!
