Homebrew Citra - Unofficial \ Chinese builds discussion

umm i cannot go here http://builds.citra-emu.org/citra/nightly/ its give me dns error.

The server for the nightlies is off, you must compile your own build from the source or download the compiled from that point in the code. @Dragios is uploading the binaries from the updated code in the discuss page (https://discuss.citra-emu.org/) and @jroweboy is working on a new repository for the nightlies

I will be making a video on how to fully build citra later today. I have discovered quite a few awesome things that help make your citra pretty badass. But I am still testing all this and wont make the video until everything works and I dont give bad information that confuses people.

If your interested for other video, I try to round up how to compile under MinGw

How to Compile in Mingw

Mingw compiling install -> https://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/

Install each one of these files per time..
Some times you may have to press return then Y then return again.
(Warning) This will take over 6GB of space for all files installed.

copy / paste each one and install it.

pacman -S git
pacman -S make
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL2
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-boost
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-make

Only requires to be done once ^
--------------------------------
after this then you could default the drive to like to install the files in mysy2
- ie command:

cd c:

Then - Download citra, https are any you chose,
make sure the builds have mingw files added to them

git clone --recursive https://github.com/Jhno591/citra-bleeding-edge-2

Then to start building copy/paste

cd citra
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make -j4

If all is done right, then it should start building citra_qt.exe , then the end build will be in C:\citra\build\src\citra_qt
To rebuild then just make -j4 , ie if reset mysy2 then retype - cd c:citra/build then make -j4
If SDL2 error, then retrance installing the pacman commands.

Id SDL2 error, then retrance installing the pacman s commands.

i tried that and all went well until this part
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles"-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release..

just kept getting errors

I re-rote it in the quote

after all done download - are other url of choice with mingw files added to the build

git clone --recursive https://github.com/Jhno591/citra-bleeding-edge-2

Then copy/paste this

cd citra
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles"-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release..
make -j4

when it gets to make -j4 , return again to start building .

any difference building it this way and visual studio way? also using gitkraken to merge pull requests. Ill give it a shot and see if itll let me make it the mingw way

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

nope. still getting this error
$ cmake -G "MYS Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
CMake Error: Could not create named generator MYS Makefiles

It seed to give the emu more speed like the way GDMK did it, to be honest i don't see any change in speed built either way msvc2105 are mingw .
well you can use most stuff to merge pull request, I use GIT GUI , some merges conflicts but can revert , are fix it if get use to and know how too.

I see cheers all best, just use that full line i posted you.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

you can also change the cpu flags like this open in main citra folder cmakelist.txt

-msse -msse2")
-msse -msse2")

like change both to -mAVX -mAVX") , are -mavx -mavx2") for cpu instructions, and citra will be built with it

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

"nope. still getting this error
$ cmake -G "MYS Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
CMake Error: Could not create named generator MYS Makefiles"

"MYS Makefiles"

MYSY

cope pate all of this

cd citra
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles"-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release..
make -j4

If they is a pre-build folder , delete build folder, and start again , type first where your citra folder is, like cd c:citra
If not C then check you pc letter drive .

Yes sure added,

(Note) You will need to replace your own "User" folder
changes
https://github.com/Jhno591/citra/commits/master

Edit, Now i'm gonna have to remove SVC.cpp - priority -= 1; // boost the priority a little if it is on SysCore and test it out

https://github.com/Jhno591/citra/commit/ea9f931cd8d87aba950462eab31aa3c6c5a702d9

edit yep the zelda albw hookshot issue sure is fixed too
https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/issues/2091

Amazing this build too fast)

Yeap

 

[masaki88]

Yeap

nah its slower than Citra-GCCKU-BleedingEdge-04.12.2016

nah its slower than Citra-GCCKU-BleedingEdge-04.12.2016

I've tested both, the master code is giving me more stable and faster framerate (in ALL games I've tested so far). Just remember that some of the codes (the most recent ones) are not even in the one compiled by Dragios, so you can expect the same performance or even better if you compile it yourself.

 

[Letrax]

So I've tested the citra (demiph?) build and it seems to be the best one.
Does anybody know the original website? So that I can keep track of updates?
I googled it and well uhh... didnt work out.

Could you pass already built? Maybe by zippyshare

 

[Yandere-chan]

I am so impressed with how far this emulator has come!
