FearlessTobi 2fd3b328ae bcat: Disable Boxcat backend by default
This commit disables the Boxcat backend by default for new users of yuzu.

There's several reasons as to why this is done:
1. Boxcat currently only actually has an impact on 3 games and doesn't influence any core mechanics of them
2. It causes a plethora of issues when enabled such as games like Crash Team Racing, Diablo 3 and Tales of Vesperia not booting at all or hanging
3. It causes https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/issues/2957 to happen. This makes the configuration menu totally unusable for many Linux users of yuzu

I think those points show that currently the negative impact of Boxcat outweighs its benefits and should therefore be disabled by default.
For users who are eager to use the extra features provided by it, they can still just turn it on in the settings.

yuzu emulator

Travis CI Build Status Azure Mainline CI Build Status

yuzu is an experimental open-source emulator for the Nintendo Switch from the creators of Citra.

It is written in C++ with portability in mind, with builds actively maintained for Windows and Linux. The emulator is capable of running several commercial games.

yuzu only emulates a subset of Switch hardware and therefore most commercial games do not run at full speed or are not fully functional.

Do you want to check which games are compatible and which ones are not? Please visit our Compatibility page!

yuzu is licensed under the GPLv2 (or any later version). Refer to the license.txt file included.

Check out our website!

For development discussion, please join us on Discord.

Development

Most of the development happens on GitHub. It's also where our central repository is hosted.

If you want to contribute please take a look at the Contributor's Guide and Developer Information. You should also contact any of the developers on Discord in order to know about the current state of the emulator.

Building

Support

We happily accept monetary donations or donated games and hardware. Please see our donations page for more information on how you can contribute to yuzu. Any donations received will go towards things like:

  • Switch consoles to explore and reverse-engineer the hardware
  • Switch games for testing, reverse-engineering, and implementing new features
  • Web hosting and infrastructure setup
  • Software licenses (e.g. Visual Studio, IDA Pro, etc.)
  • Additional hardware (e.g. GPUs as-needed to improve rendering support, other peripherals to add support for, etc.)

We also more than gladly accept used Switch consoles, preferably ones with firmware 3.0.0 or lower! If you would like to give yours away, don't hesitate to join our Discord and talk to bunnei. You may also contact: donations@yuzu-emu.org.
