Homebrew [RetroArch] Nightly builds here!

[smisk42]

So I'm trying to play Phantasy Star using Genesis Plus GX, playing the Japanese version. The game itself runs fine but I'm only getting the inferior PSG sound. Anyone know if it's possible to enable FM sound?

As before, you can only play clock tower: the first fear with full speed on o3ds

Are you talking e about all the cores or just PSX? Thanks.

I m using ninjhax 1.1b and cia builds...
Is there a problem with new builds?

2D games can be deceptively demanding. See Final Fantasy II on PPSSPP, for example.

Gex plays just fine besides CGI cutscenes

When I'm playing Crash Bandicoot N-Tranced on a legitimate bios, during the levels where you spin around in a cage, the game crashes with in 5-10 seconds for no reason.

If I'm running on 10.1 in Emunand and I run the game through a CIA, am I actually able to use dynarec? Or do I have to boot from my 7.0 sysnand?

Picodrive is getting better on O3DS with .3DSX. The laggiest I've seen it was 49fps as opposed to 42-45fps last night.

Don't hold your breath for GPU acceleration, by the way. It's one thing to port over existing cores and seeing what works, enabling existing optimisations etc. It's another thing to code GPU acceleration from scratch, and this may also have to be core specific. I'd be surprised if this happens, lets wait and see.

It's likely going to be core-specific, if it ever gets off the ground, because each platform needs different requirements from the system.

Wouldn't the gPSP core benefit a lot from it? It runs everything at fullspeed, only slowing down when games use effects, specially on multiple layers.

 

[doctorgoat]

Maybe the OpenGL port will advance enough to be usable for Retroarch eventually.

You cn toggle the FM sound unit in the core options in the quick menu.. You'll have to restart for changes to take effect.

It would need to be looked into.

Thanks, got it working now

the freeze when loading a game in pcsx_rearmed should be fixed now, and it should run slightly faster.
use this link since the other might take some time to get updated.

also, can anyone confirm if toggling off the lower screen is working correctly now on a 2DS ?

The pcsx_rearmed cia in this link still broken for me, and latest nightly broken too still. Boots back to system after launching[n3ds 9.0]. Last one that works for me was the 1-10-15.

well it is working fine for me, can you give me more details ? does it crash only after loading a game ? what game are you testing ?

It crashes straight away. Can't even get to choose game. Boots straight back to homebrew launcher because I have it set to auto boot.

and this is specific to the pcsx_rearmed core ? others work fine ?
