Tested a few games.

the speed in pretty much compared to tabnk, except for 7th dragon, the framerate is a bit lower and instable (framerate fluctuates, it is not staying in one place, compared to tabnk build)
The second thing, when upscaling from native to 2x, in pokemon sapphire, the characters do not get scaled properly, tabnk scales everything to 2x.

I'm no longer merging the texcache-pt2, it's auto getting merged into the canary with each changes.

see if you like to join up and ask your questions here
https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/pull/3281

This branch is also scaling resolutions.

I have no control over how it gets changed, I don't program not much of a clue, maybe have a crack on small time bit, but no think big way over my head lol

It is subject to change with each update.

Try Canary build #256 is the firts with Textcache in canary builds and is the most fast, the last update of that PR make it a bit more slow or a great down fps in some games like Kingdom hearts DDD 90%(#256) vs 50%-60%(#277)

il just stick with tabnk build, it is probably much faster than what canary ever could provide.

Thanks everyone for the great builds here, finished Ultra Sun with no major problems, and smooth fps all the time!


Questions:

  • Is there any build capable of running Bravely Default: Second layer? I tried a few builds, including tabnk's Citra-Clang-5.0-AVX2-OPTIMIZED-14-DEC-2017 (Intel Haswell above only) but I get fatal error crash when I start the game. The log file shows:
./citra-qt : QObject::~QObject: Timers cannot be stopped from another thread
At line:1 char:1
+ ./citra-qt 2>log.txt
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (QObject::~QObje... another thread:String) [], RemoteException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError

QWaitCondition: Destroyed while threads are still waiting

  • Anyone played Fire Emblem: Shadows of Valentia using a decrypted ROM/CIA here? I've tried quite a few different versions of them undubbed, but there's no voiced dialogue at all when the game is supposed to be fully voiced. Any idea what might be the problem?

What is your cpu? Your cpu may not support avx2 instruction.
avx2 builds are the fastest builds

Intel i5-6500 currently, seems to be Skylake according to CPU-Z. Also just found out Fire Emblem: Warriors don't work for me with drwhojan's builds too... I get to choose the game mode and stuffs but gets stuck after the loading to begin a map.

look at damonps2 i tried tales of the abyss samsung galaxy s8 exynos framerate is 44 fps and snapdragon 60 fps better than real 3ds nintendo desverse 3ds is too weak i happy nintendo switch to be out early i hope 3ds die its too weak.

u can play god of war on damon ps2 4x native on snapdragon 835. i hope tales of lengdia works on damonps2 i get 8fps on exynos if he update to 60fps thats means citra andriod soon.
Hey! Don't get too salty for it. I know that the 3DS will die soon(maybe late 2018), but you know making emulators. It takes time. PlayStation 2 and 3DS aren't the same. How long did that PS2 Emulator started development?

DamonPS2's Developer has been accused of stealing code from PPSSPP for UI-related stuff and a lot of code from PCSX2.
It wouldn't surprise me if it was an actual Port of it, obviously done without the permission from PCSX2's Developers.

With that being said, what does DamonPS2 have to do with anything..? There's no 3DS Emulator for Android, so why does it matter how good or bad DamonPS2 is?
If you just wanted to complain about how poor the consoles that Nintendo make are, this surely isn't the place for that.

I need some help please. I'm running Citra Canary, and I am attempting the "No black line" patch in Pokemon.

However this is what I get.

Good luck installing the rest of the System Apps one by one though. :)
Be sure to use 3dbrew's title list for some guidance.

BTW. o2DS Home Menu have the option to disable Wifi. However, it doesn't work probably Citra set it enable so that it can use for the Multiplayer Support. Mind if you could try make a build without the multiplayer support but also have the Home Menu fix for testing purposes? Just DM me the build though. No need some very good performance change.

I can't try to make mine for now since I have to deal with modding stuff that requires Python 2.7 and not the latest version.

Hello, I'm noob and i don't know a lot about Citra.

My config is I5 7600, Nvidia GTW 970 4Go, 8Go RAM.

Can I play MH Generation with this config ? And what version of Citra should I use ? And what config setting should I do ?

littile upd for monhun - MHXX seems to run great and without sound breaking on Citra-CC-Mingw_12_12_2017 even after applyin of english fan patch to dump. Maybe my GEN dump was bad or just some differences in regional audio dunno.

i think it must be enough - just turn off 3d at start screen menu. And limit framerate to 30 max. If it will lag try increase number of pre-rendered frames in driver settings as described at this thread earlier.

how to apply English patch for MHXX on Citra ?

You need to unpack decrypted rom, swap files and then repack it back. And some additional things i think. At least until luna patcher begin to work on citra. Basically its "release-monster-hunter-double-cross-english-ui-patch" that can be found here on gbatemp but im not sure if proper guide for decrypted rom patching is in that tread. And sadly my english is 2 bad for proper description of process. Maybe google can help tho. Dunno.

Nah. That's normal to get Fatal Error in Home Menu. Me and others who booted the Home Menu only ends up at startup. So yeah, if you want to switch apps, CTRL+O and then locate them.

If you have a modded 3DS to begin with, you can dump decrypted rom with GodMode9. To unpack rom, use HackingToolKit3DS(install it first then use it).

guide for repacking and patchin that was used:

The 'Japanese version 1.2 update' was downloaded from the eShop and decrypted using my 3DS.
Then, using Asia81's 'HackingToolkit3DS' Tools:
1. The 'Decrypted Japanese 3DS Rom' was unpacked.
2. The 'v1.2 Update Data' file was unpacked.
3. The Update ExeFS/RomFS contents was copied over the original 3DS Rom extracted files.
4. The 'DecryptedExHeader.bin' was modified (Offset 0x1CC from 0E to 00) and replaced the one in the original 3DS Rom.
5. The 'English Translation Patch files' were extracted and copied over to the 'RomFS' replacing the files in the original 3DS Rom.
6. The 3DS Rom was rebuilt and then trimmed.
