Has anyone tried it out yet on the RG35XXSP?
I was unsuccessful in getting a lot of PortMaster games working Knulli despite following the recommended installation instructions. My post from nearly a year ago about trying to get Stardew Valley working can be found here. I was able to get PortMaster working on MuOS at the time but I prefer Knulli's frontend.
I also noticed an issue where connecting a display to the HMDI output would not work and prevent the system from booting though I admittedly only tried this briefly.
The developer has stated because it's a major update people need to reflash their SD cards. Most of the changes that come with this update aren't things I care about so I figured I'd ask before switching over.
Apparently there is some kind of fix for exFAT file systems in regards to PortMaster so I may try that first. I'm relatively confident my system is running EXT4 though.
