QOL improvements for the Nintendo Switch port of DevilutionX.

Features

• Sound on level up.
• Hold Minus to highlight loot on ground.
• Running in town.
• Monster healthbar.

Installation

Precompiled binary

A pre-build binary (2019/12/05) is provided, to install:

• Put devilutionx.nro in into /switch/devilutionx/.
• Copy diabdat.mpq from the original Diablo game disc or GOG version into /switch/devilutionx/.
• Launch devilutionx.nro (do not use album to launch, see the note below).

Note: Hold R on any installed game and launch it. Do not use album to launch. If you use album, the homebrew only has very little memory available, and the touch keyboard doesn't work. This is true for all homebrew, not just Diablo-NX.

Standalone patches

You can apply the patch by running patch -p1 < ../path_to.patch in the devilutionX directory (last update for devilutionX 1.1.0).

Most of the patches are stand-alone. infernity_item_hightlight_v04.patch and infernity_monster_hp_bar_v02.patch require infernity_common_v02.patch.
