I have download and tried several builds from retroarch on my PSTV.

NONE of the individual cores work, the only one that works are the All In One vpks.

But i would like my live area with the Stand Alone emulators, 1 bubble for each.

When i install them, they all open normally, they also see the path of the roms, they can be loaded from USB, but as soon as i open a rom, the emulator crash, can recall correctly, but i think it trows a c-12828-1 error.

Is there anything that can be done? i mean, All In One works, and games can be played, however, i would like my emulators separated.

Basically all cores are crashing. if they are standalone versions.
It's a pain in the arse on pstv. I had to basically go through different builds finding the cores I wanted that would work. It's a bit of a mess my setup because loading different cores also loads different versions of the xmb. I've managed to get the 12 cores I wanted running also with manually editing the config on pc to show a border as well. It's so fucked up on the pstv I don't know why. I can have a fully working setup on my vita but the same setup won't work on pstv.

Once you get the cores working that you want you can extract the vpk and add your own icon and live area pictures and zip again to install so they look like this.

Here to confirm what Columbo2811 stated above. No individual cores from current builds work on pstv. Looks like you'll need to use the all in one or get Columbo to post what builds he got his cores from.

I wonder if libretto knows about this bug?

SNES CORE WORKS ON PSTV, sure more also does too (Henkaku on Adrenaline 3.1)

http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/playstation/vita/

2017-05-05_RetroArch, tested "snes9x2005_libretro.vpk", plays SNES great. (2002 version crashes, and the 2010 version for snes9x is very slow) ... ... ... ... just pick the .vpk emulator you want out of the package and you have an individual core that works, or are we on the same subject? Only played with snes. Mame sounds good, but, something about objective less coin based gameplay rubs me the wrong way. (too lazy to test "2017 05-06_RetroArch" package, sure the result are the same, since the file sizes appear the same for the snes emulators in there).

EDIT - More testing Works Best!

snes9x2005_libretro.vpk (not the plus version or 2010 or 2002 version)
2017-05-05_RetroArch and 2017-05-06_RetroArch nightly builds tested

Game to test is Super Mario RPG to see the difference also Final Fantasy 6 (the hard mod versions) also I read that a "better amphetamin plugin" can increase the clock speed to fix any remaining slowdowns

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
