PortalNXSideLoader is [[Skyline_Switch|Skyline plugin]] for Portal 1 and 2 that allows to load files outside of game.zip, so there is no need to repacking and sending huge archives every time you want to change something. This was confirmed to work with the Bringus mod for [[Portal 1 Bringus Menu Mod Switch|Portal 1]] and [[Portal 2 Bringus Menu Mod Switch|Portal 2]]. ==Installation== ===Installing the plugin=== You must have 1.0.3 version of Portal 2 and version 1.0.2 or 1.0.3 of Portal. Download either version from the [https://github.com/masagrator/PortalNXSideLoader/releases release page]: *Portal-NXSideLoader - For Portal 1. *Portal2-NXSideLoader - For Portal 2, without network (it will not block you from using network): *Portal2-NoWeb-NXSideLoader - For Portal 2, with network (for people that block Nintendo servers, it will block game from connecting to network to prevent crash + helps with debugging). Put atmosphere folder to root of the SD card. ===Installing PC mod=== Inctructions: *Rename main mod folder (for example in case of Portal Reloaded it's "portalreloaded") to, depending on game: **Portal: <code>portal</code> **Portal 2: <code>portal2_dlc3</code> *and put this folder into: **Portal: <code>/atmosphere/contents/01007BB017812000/romfs/nxcontent/</code> **Portal 2: <code>/atmosphere/contents/0100ABD01785C000/romfs/nxcontent/</code> *All folder and file names inside romfs folder must be lower case. Notes: *Some mods are overwriting menu options, so you can lose access to Switch controller settings. *If after installing mod you can't save anything in options, try to delete "gameinfo.txt" from mod folder. You may also delete custom options menu. *They are stored either freely somewhere inside mod folder OR they are packed to some vpk file. *Mods need to have properly optimized CPU code, to prevent performance issues on the Switch ([https://gbatemp.net/threads/portal-collection-file-sideloader.617489/post-9915640 read more]). **Examples of properly optimized mods - Portal Reloaded, ERROR, Portal: Still Alive. **Examples of badly optimized mods - Portal Stories: Mel. ==Screenshots== {| style="width: 80%; margin-left:0em;" | https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/portalnxsideloadernx2.jpg https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/portalnxsideloadernx3.jpg https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/portalnxsideloadernx4.jpg https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/portalnxsideloadernx5.jpg https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/portalnxsideloadernx6.jpg https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/portalnxsideloadernx7.jpg |} ==Changelog== '''1.4 2022/11/28''' *Released next update fixing issues with save flushing. *If after installing mod you can't save anything in settings, you can try to delete gameinfo.txt from mod folder. Though if you have PC settings menu, you may be forced to delete files related to it. '''1.3 2022/011/26''' *Updated plugin to fix issues with reading materials from BSP files and custom sounds. *Now you don't need to unpack materials from BSP anymore. *Now also "portal2_dlc3" folder is correctly detected. *Read README inside repo how to properly install PC mod, it's now less of a pain '''1.2 2022/09/08''' *Updated plugin to support Portal 2 1.0.3 update. *Portal 1.0.3 update didn't change anything that plugin relies on, so you can update game without updating plugin. '''1.1 2022/08/20''' *Hooking now stat_nx, which solves issues with loading completely custom content. == External links == * GitHub - https://github.com/masagrator/PortalNXSideLoader * GBAtemp - https://gbatemp.net/threads/portal-collection-file-sideloader.617489/
