Retrix(LibretroRT) is a massive project aimed at porting all libretro cores to UWP. It currently supports Nes,Snes,Sega Master System,Sega Game gear, Sega CD, sg 1000, Playstation, Gameboy, Gameboy advance, and many more to be ported soon. This guide will cover installing Retrix for your xbox one console.


[1.] Download ProjectPgeasus (If you already have ProjectPegasus this step doesn't apply)
https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/raw/master/ProjectPegasusSetup.exe





[2.] Once Installed just open it up and select RetriX. Now just wait for it to download. All you have to do now is Sideload Retrix on to your Xbox One (If you don't know how, follow the full guide here https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/blob/master/binaries/Installing APPX Packages.pdf )

[3.] Enjoy! :yayone:

Retrix brings with it support for local 2 player something we have not had until now. It also opens the floodgates to every single emulator that is currently inside the scope of the libretro project. You can see a full list here https://github.com/libretro

I had been sitting on releasing Retrix for quite a bit now but it has finally reached a point where it is stable enough for release. Credit goes to Albertofustonini for creating and maintaining the Retrix Project. Credit also goes to @kingtut for advocating for a Libretro/Retroarch port for Xbox One. You can follow current development on the official github page https://github.com/Aftnet/LibretroRT

if its a cd game you need to first select the first bin or cue then for the second time when it asks goto the folder again and hit select button or whatever it is and pick select as the option and the game should work

if they are neo geo roms from the right version of fba then yes all fba roms need to be zipped and make sure you have zipped bios of neogeo.zip activated under settings for them to work

Just like to say thank you so much for all the help with this its much appreciated, Will be donating to retrix for sure this is a brilliant project and still holds so much potential for the future, It so nice to have so many games running so well in one place if only companies could see the benefits of working together!!! Also i purchased a hyperkin x91 for use with this emulator and id recommend it to anyone who likes retro games the dpad is far better and the pad feels very 90s. I can only hope n64, psx, ds and so one all go forward and can start to run smoothly.
