[Switch] v2.6.5 Additional soundtracks not being found

16BitWonder opened this issue 4 years ago · 11 comments

I've updated to the new v2.6.5 binary and moved my music directories to the following location and all seem to be unrecognized.
I'm not sure if this is me misinterpreting the new data location from the release notes or if music isn't being looked for correctly by the new binary.
My apologies if it's the former.

SD: nxengine/
    L data/
      L Ogg/
      L Ogg11/
      L Ogg17/
      L Ogg_ridic/

If it makes a difference, my nro is stored at:

SD: switch/0 - Games/NXEngine-Evo-v2.6.5/NXEngine-Evo-v2.6.5.nro

Debug log attached below:
debug.log

Hm. But settings and saves do work?

Answer 2 · 2021-07-04T20:40:18.000Z

Yes profile.dat, settings.dat and debug.log are all still being read/written to from the NRO directory.

NXEngine-Evo-2.6.5.nro.zip
try that one

I think you might've missed a '/' with that build, it's no longer reading my previous settings/profile from the NRO directory and instead produces "nxenginedebug.log", "nxengineprofile.dat" and "nxenginesettings.dat" on the SD card root.

Attached nxenginedebug.log (Still not locating the music directories):
nxenginedebug.log

yeah, right.
BTW, what's the best way - use just data/ in nro dir, or use /nxengine/data/ on SD?

NXEngine-Evo-2.6.5.nro.zip
That one should look in /nxengine/data/
But, saves/settings would be in /nxengine/data/ too. One from releases looks in data/ in NRO directory (well, atleast it should)

BTW, what's the best way - use just data/ in nro dir, or use /nxengine/data/ on SD?

For switch homebrew I've generally seen contents not stored within NRO romfs either within the same directory as the NRO or in switch/ (something like SD:switch/nxengine/)
I'd lean more towards keeping it in either SD:nxengine/data/ or SD:switch/nxengine/data/ just so there's consistency about where things are being stored between users.

That one should look in /nxengine/data/
But, saves/settings would be in /nxengine/data/ too. One from releases looks in data/ in NRO directory (well, atleast it should)

This build's generating debug.log, profile.dat and settings.dat in SD:nxengine/ and reading the music directories from SD:nxengine/data/ correctly.

debug.log

So, should we use that build then? Or change to sd:/switch/nxengine/?

Answer 9 · 2021-07-04T21:37:28.000Z

Between SD:/nxengine/ and SD:/switch/nxengine/ I'd vote SD:/switch/nxengine/ to keep it closer to where other homebrew files are generally stored and off of the root.

Answer 10 · 2021-07-04T21:51:57.000Z

Okay, updated switch build in releases to use /switch/nxengine/ and path description accordingly.

Awesome, tried the new build in releases and it's working flawlessly.
Thank you for looking into this so quickly. ^^
