Thanks, I just downloaded that. Tried to run it, and Windows defender says stop. I'll figure that out next.

EDIT: Nevermind. All is good now. Thanks a lot.

I'm installing this on my desktop as well as her laptop. Noticeable difference in installation speed, haha. Here's has been running for 25 minutes now, and not even done Compile. My desktop took only 5:18 for that step.

Yeah, it's unsigned so you have to kind of take a leap of faith. Doubt they'll ever get a real signing key for this kind of thing.

The installer/patcher thing they made is really impressive. The auto update features and everything - super good. Once in game hit F1 to bring up the options. F10 is a 3 step toggle to display performance stuff in the top right. F11 is full screen toggle.

I completed the install & patch on my desktop. Her laptop is still showing 0% shader on the primary installation, and it's been an hour and 15 minutes so far.

I'm trying to get everything set up on my desktop, so I'll easily be able to get it fully functional by the time she gets home from school.

The one thing I noticed is that I don't have any sound while running the game, but I can hear things just fine during the N2Xnavi program while installing everything.

It's this a common problem, and is there a way to fix it?

I would check the issues on github, closed and open (all issues) and search for sound. I didn't have any sound related problems personally.

So I got NX2navi running 100% on her Laptop, and all is good. Above that, I downloaded a jpg of Link playing an Ocarana, and converted it into an icon file. Then I attached that file to the NX2N launch program, just so it "looks" nice. It's all about ascetics. She'll be happy, which means I win.

I tried ReLink just now and had no audio, worse fps than emu.

People are claiming Longshot is the one today. It's just multiple devs that were helping with Hookshot, but the repo owner is a 14 year old that didn't know how to collaborate, so they dipped.
 
That's a pretty big difference in installation time. The desktop finishing in five minutes while the laptop takes over an hour sounds like quite a gap. At least you got everything working on her laptop too. Hopefully the audio issue on your desktop is just a driver or configuration problem.

Even though I had disabled the controller speaker earlier, the game was winning while using that as the only source of audio. I swapped back to speakers and all works once more

I ordered a spare S2 Dock from Nintendo Wednesday. Said it usually ships 1-2 days . From CA and I'm 1 state over so I did standard delivery. It will get here in one day. If it ever ships. Contact CS today they state 3-9 days. I said in that case cancel. said it was too late. I asked what was this BS , you don't know when it will ship but I cannot cancel. Keep that in mind if you deal with them.
Anyhow I stole the one in the living room so I can hook it up in my game room. Looks far better on my game monitor than it did on our living room TV.

I just did a google search. Legend of Zelda Ocarana of Time Switch 2 ROM
This is the 2nd result.
Eh, I don't know about that one. I do see on the newsgroups a recompiled Windows version. But was more interested in playing with those other projects listed above.

You can play with them. Think of the .nup file as just a CD image file that will copy an entire CD. Then the various programs are just what opens that image file and allows it to play.
I didn't look at the link I sent directly, but that's the same way I got my own file. I downloaded a 24 gig file that had a password to open the file. Inside of that was the .nup image file. Then when you click on the launch executable of the 3 programs above, they will automatically connect to the .nup file and create their own program using that as a benchmark for your computer. It's different for every computer, based off of your own computers abilities. I installed this on my own desktop as well as my daughter's laptop. The install was the same, but the final product isn't, if that makes any sense.

Okay, I assumed the .nup image would be readily available on Bittorrent or usenet. Shockingly, I can't find it on either.
