​

This is an unofficial Nintendo Switch port of the Fox Interactive / Rebellion Developments game, Aliens Versus Predator Gold.

Note: Requires the full game (AvP Gold or AvP 2000), both GOG or Steam work.
If you use AvP 2000, go there https://icculus.org/avp/files/etc/ and download english.txt, rename it to language.txt and put it with the assets into the same Folder as the NRO.

A correct setup will look like this:


All folders (but FMVs) must be lower case, also every file in every dir must be lower case.
"+" is Escape, "-" is Enter

Strafing sucks balls so I currently only enabled it for not Alien.
This is the first iteration, expect bugs.

Don't forget to map joycon controls in the options, else you will not be able to do much ingame, also it currently renders in 1080p, so handheld text will look small.

Known bugs:
- Profile sometimes doesn't want to load properly, load another profile, then use the change profile option and it should work
- Exit Game does not work
- Some stuff requires keyboard input (for example gamma control, works via docked or USB OTG), but the game can be played without it! Swkbd support is planned when I find time.

Dear m4xw, still no plans to support FW 9.x.x+..

Something broke through the updates so the renderer outputs bullshit and I dont have time to investigate it :/

I’d really really love AvP again T.T

 

[The_Chaotician]

Is this still borked as of 10.0.0+?

 

[hippy dave]

Is this still borked as of 10.0.0+?

Yeah it will need updating for newer libnx.

 

[m4xw]

Yeah it will need updating for newer libnx.

You can still set the HID MITM option.
Its still borked and needs code fixes, if it would just work with new libnx i wouldve already released it, its just super low prio.

 

[mathew77]

super low prio.

Please make it normal priority.

 

[xbmcuser]

Please make it normal priority.

No sorry 3ds and retroarch emulation (maybe even dolphin native Horizon) are what we need most of now from @m4xw

 

[mathew77]

etroarch emulation

No thanks, all we need is a glorious Alien vs. Predator Switch Edition.

 

[BaffledBatsandSlother]

Just throwing it out there that I also am eagerly awaiting an update that fixes this. Thanks for all the hard work m4xw!

 

[mathew77]

Because thats how it was coded.

Entirely no good news at latest FW 10.1.0 support, huh?..

 

[sj33]

I wouldn't hold your breath, I don't think it's anywhere close to being worked on right now.

 

[nWo]

Hi! Any news on making this work on 10.1? or is it abandoned forever... Thank you!

What exactly is supposed to not work in this? I play it fine on latest firmware. On TXOS.

Controls are unusable on fw higher than 9.X.X, under atmosphere

 

[BlackSunshine]

Bumping the thread for an update..

 

[m4xw]

It broke due to pretty stupid issues and i didnt feel like dealing with them yet. It seems i forgot some critical piece that i cant remember now..
