#help with enableing sidejit
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
are there any error messages you can send?
yes I’ll take a quick picture now
I keep getting this same message and it’s driving me crazy
and I’ve tried different codes as well
Did you install the requirements
yes
Are you using a venv?
oh you need to run pip3 install setuptools to fix that. it’s not listed in the requirements but it was necessary for me
ohhh I’ll try that now then and let you know if it worked thanks
You should make a pr and ask that it be added!
what’s a venv? Sorry to ask if that sounds stupid
A virtual environment. Keeps python organized
Helps prevent some bugs
oh no I’m on power shell right now
A venv can be enabled in powershell. Check the instructions on the repo
can you send what channel the repo is?
thanks
oh I just got a new message I’ve never seen before what should I do now?
you should be able to try running sidejitserver again.
that being said, i would recommend doing all the steps with the venv in the instructions though. up to you
I’ll do the steps with the venv in the instructions then just in case and then let you know if sidejit finally decided to work thanks
When I entered the code from the venv it gave me this
I’m not sure what option I should pick now
you need to first plug in and pair your device using SideJITServer -y.
after you try that out the first time when your ios device is still plugged in, then you should be clear to run SideJITServer with no options after. I don’t have a windows machine though so i don’t know how it behaves there
so first put in this code SideJITServer -y?
yes. i think your ios device needs to be plugged in for that but i’m not sure on windows
Alright I have my ios device plugged in my pc so I just enter that code in now right?
yes
👍
So now from here what do I do?
I successfully paired my device again with my pc but I’m not sure what to do next
Last ip address with :8080 should be added to the shortcut under the server
Device id is your UDID for the shortcut
I’m sorry but where do I add the shortcut?
I feel like I’m stupid for forgetting this
so I create a new shortcut right?
Get the link I posted
alright I got it then?
That’s the shortcut
oh
Enter the server info in there from the server that is currently running
I enter that into the shortcut right?
Yes you need this if you want it to do it wirelessly
Is in the tutorial I posted
I showed everything there
alright got it I’m gonna watch your tutorial now then thank you.
Np 🫡
Is at 6:32 of the video
Ignore the iTunes stuff since the server is giving you the info
I’m confused at 10:05 of the video
Where do I configure the UDID
I did not get that pop up
With the arrow connecting to UDID
The server is the next box with the ip ending with :8080
Yeah I showed in the video for that reason
okay now I think I can follow along with the rest of the video now thank you!
I think I’m on the right step now
Np 🫡
Sorry but I have One more question is my UDID the serial number in iTunes?
wait never mind I’m stupid 🤦
I just realized clicking on the serial number shows your UDID
I hen you click the serial number on iTunes it will be changing then it will show you the UDID and it will say is the udid but I just gave it to you from your pic lol
Again I was saying that on my vid
lol sorry for hurting your brain I’m kinda tired right now so that’s why I’m so slow lol
thank you for having patience though anyway appreciate it
did your computer have any error messages when that happened?
yes
I have the picture
can you send picture of the shortcut settings? i’m guessing something is wrong there. basically is your udid and ip address set up right?
yes I did set both of those up right
I’ll send a picture
alright just did let me see if that fixed it
now it says It can’t find device
and I did change it
oh huh ok so that’s functioning and your device is just disconnected for some reason. i don’t know why
run the shortcut again with the corrected udid
alright I’ll try that again then
You mean this UDID right?
oh wait yeah that’s the correct one i think
still the same error sadly it can’t find my device
Try the UDID without dashes
without dashes?
I’m confused
ohhh wait
I just realized what you meant
I’ll try that now and let you know if it worked
Still the same error sadly
Well there goes my troubleshooting ability
I just want to play resident evil 4 on my phone 😭
can you restart sidejitserver and post a picture of what it says when it starts
How do I restart sidejit?
you can control-c to stop it and then run the program again
what does it say after you start it?
oh yeah that’s not right
what’s not?
first of all the port 49151 needs to be cleared, i don’t have the expertise in windows to handle that cleanly
next, i think you may have to run the whole thing as administrator but also not sure
I am in administrator though
oh you are already? great
I ran it in administrator mode
I think I’m never gonna be able to get this to work at this point 😭
you can just try running it again and hope that the port is cleared up
You mean the same command?
Is RE4 not on the app store
the one I used to pair my device!
I wanna play the original
Ah
yeah get it working with -y first as you were doing
alright lemme do that real quick
alright now?
you want to NOT see the error while attempting to bind to address thing. if you don’t see that, then it might work
I just entered the command
I see that is that good?
I don’t exactly see a error
that crashed for some reason
you’re not doing anything wrong, the latest version is highly unstable
you have to keep clearing out the 49151 thing if anything goes wrong. i don’t know how to do that on windows so i don’t want to accidentally break your computer lol
lol all good np
on my mac, i set this up with sidejitserver v1.2.1 but that also requires some strange steps that aren’t listed in the instructions
oh
maybe I should try that?
Idk what else to do at this point
if you try v1.2.1, it’s highly likely you will need to do pip3 install setuptools then pip3 install qh3==0.15.1 in the a new venv for that. there’s a lot of chances to have things mess up there too
oh so its kinda risky?
anything is risky imo with sidejitserver lol it’s super unstable
True I do see that
at this point I’m honestly about to give up because I don’t know what else to try 😭
Use retro arch
RetroArch is a free, ad-free, open source, and cross platform frontend/framework for emulators, game engines, video games, media players, and other applications. Supported systems come in the form of libretro cores. The following cores are included:
- 2048
- Amstrad - CPC (CrocoDS)
- Amstrad - CPC/…
That’s impossible because the only GameCube/Wii emulator on iOS is DolphiniOS ||(apart from the predecessor GC4IOS but this requires a Mac to build and it has very poor performance with overheating issues)||, and DolphiniOS requires JIT which AppStore apps can’t get after iOS 14.3
could appstore apps have JIT below 14.3?
I don’t think I’ll get dolphin working then since I’m on a version way after 14.3
I’m giving up
im on 17.4 and i can play Dolphin and and Switch games (Sudachi) lmao
how?
actually how I’ve been trying to figure this out for a week and slowly been mental drained
SideJITServer but mostly Xcode
oh damn my sidejit keeps saying it can’t recognize my device
I think I’m honestly screwed
it specifically says error could not find device even though my device has been paired over 10 times
do you use SideStore?
It was removed in 14.4 not 14.3, but theoretically I would say yes that it is possible
kewl but i dont think that apple would let us upload it now
yes
but I’ve been struggling with that same message
okay so can you restart your computer then run SideJITServer and send a screenshot
That says it could not find my device
I tried that already sadly
I don’t know what else to do
i need the screenshot to diagnose the issue lmao
Np here
this message has slowly been making me lose my sanity
and I swear to god I’ve done everything right
we cant do much with that we need screenshot of sidejitserver after a computer restart for a clean output
(or you can close and re open SideJITServer and PS / Terminal / cmd)
oh I’m away from my computer right now because I’m in my study period
I can do it when I get home though
Seems like I’m not the only cursed one who has everything typed in correctly and nothing works
exactly
