Ryujinx is currently using OpenGL to send commands to the GPU. We would also like to support Vulkan in the future, however this is a big task that would require a major rewrite of the graphics system. There aren't any developers willing to invest the time in learning Vulkan in order to implement it at the moment, as there are other, more important features for them to spend time on.

macOS support is currently very experimental. This is due to limited OpenGL support in macOS, which is something that is out of our control. When Vulkan is supported we may be able to make more progress here. For now, you are able to use Boot Camp to run the Windows version of Ryujinx. macOS support is currently very experimental.

Ryujinx is still in the early stages of development. Over time, new updates will gradually increase performance. For now, the biggest contributor to performance in Ryujinx is a fast, high clock-speed CPU. As for GPUs, a GTX 1050 or better should be perfectly adequate (at least in the long term) to play nearly any Nintendo Switch game. Ryujinx is still in the early stages of development.

First, make sure that the game you are trying to run is actually supported and that your graphics card is capable of running it. Once you've done that, make sure that any external application that could affect the rendering is disabled. This includes things like the **MSI Afterburner** overlay, which puts an overlay on top of the emulator display window.

You can't. If you want your own character name and town name, you can try starting the game without the provided save file, but as stated above, a softlock may occur. You can use a save file editor or the [New Horizons Renamer](https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx/wiki/How-to-Change-Your-Player-Name-and-Town-Name-with-Animal-Crossing:-New-Horizons-Renamer) if your game version is 1.4.2 or earlier.
