A Nintendo Switch custom sysmodule for Discord Rich Presence.
Note: This Project is very outdated and no longer maintained! Please use SwitchPresence-Rewritten instead.
Installation
Install SwitchPresence (Switch)
- Copy switch-rich-presence.kip to your sd card and edit the hekate_ipl.ini to include the sysmodule.
- (You can for example add a configuration like this.)
[Discord Rich Presence] kip1=switch-rich-presence.kip
- Boot your switch into RCM mode and run hekate on it.
- Launch your hekate configuration with rich presence and wait until your switch turns on completely. (Also make sure that your switch is connected to internet.)
- Open the client (SwitchRichPresence.exe) and click the "Connect" button.
Note: If you want the icon of the game to show up on Discord, you will also need to setup the Rich Presence app.
Setup a Rich presence app (PC)
- Go to this link.
- Create a new App and give it the name that will be shown on your profile (usually "Nintendo Switch").
- Enable Rich Presence for you app.
- Launch the sysmodule and connect the client to the switch (see Usage).
- Once connected, click on Utils > Export icons and choose the path where your icons will be exported with the right name/icon size.
- Go to your rich presence app and add all the icons that you just exported with the name they were given and choose the the type "Large".
- (optional) add a "Small" asset named "icon". This will used as the small image on your profile. (You can use this one.)
- Open the config.txt file at the root of the client (If this file doesn't exit, running the client once closing it will create a new one.) and edit the client_id line with the client ID of the rich presence app you just created.
