Hekate repurposed as an image viewer (Fusée Gelée payload).

User guide

If you want to display your own image, use the convert_image.pde tool (you'll need Processing) in the tools folder to convert the image to a text file. It will generate an image.txt file.

Place image.txt on the root of a FAT32-formatted SD card and insert it into your Switch.

Compile the project, enter RCM mode and use fusée-launcher to launch the program. Enjoy.

Changelog

v0.2

  • Makes displaying image 70x faster by copying the image data directly to the framebuffer.
  • Also, the image file isn't ASCII text anymore to decrease size (-> faster loading).
  • Remade the image converter in python.

v0.1

  • Still really slow drawing process, takes 4 minutes for a fullscreen (720x1280) image.
