@duwen can you be more specific ? are you using cia or 3dsx?

I only tried kf2k3bl (boots to a screen check) and kf2k3bla (which works fine for me)

.3dsx - I did say in my first post

 

[daxtsu]

both 3dsx and cia have access to the same amount of ram on n3DS currently.

I thought the 3dsx builds were going to have 170MB or something. Did that not work out to be the case?

 

[Azel]

@duwen oh yeah, sorry

kf2k3bla works fine for me on .3dsx too, fw9.0..

that isn't implemented yet in the current loader afaik.

Cool - I'll try that one. I gave up trying after the first 2 or 3 clones I ran had the same issues.

I see. Hax 3.0 maybe?

SERIOUSLY ?

how much RAM did you achieve with this ?

(I'm not sure the cps2 build is needed, doesn't everything already load on n3ds with 3dsx already ? or was it to test with o3ds?)

ok so with kf2k3bla bootleg working, pretty much the whole cps1/cps2/mvs is working
(fba neo 3dsx build never came back to hbl upon quitting though )

would you be interested in compiling a regular FBA core so we can try more platforms ? (how much of the ram would such a core take compared to cps1/cps2/mvs only builds ?)

currenlty 124MB is available for applications, so this is pretty tight for kof2003.
the cps2 build was to make sure I didn't break something else .
whole fba means less RAM for the games, and will probably be cia only, I might give it a try. don't expect CPS3 at playable speeds though.

 

[daxtsu]

If nothing else, maybe we could try adding in CPS3 or something for N3DS.

 

[aliaspider]

@daxtsu you know how it works, why don't you give it a try

 

[daxtsu]

I suppose I could. I have no CPS3 games though. xD

 

[aliaspider]

just try building full fba and see if it works, if it does, then it will load CPS3 too.

 

[Azel]

(I like where this is going )

 

[pdapanda]

I heard that cps3 runs on psp with fba4psp long time ago，is it right？

 

[Azel]

I can confirm it worked, but wast fullspeed at the time I tried. (I don't think it was running 30fps)

lots of stuff ran on psp, pgm stuff, cave gen1 too

 

[RegularMoron]

Catsfc Plus (cia)

I have noticed some lag in some DKC2 levels (Arctic Abyss for example). It drops to 40 FPS or so (may drop to 50 if you use US version).
I have found a solution. Cause I'm a fricking genius:

fastforward_ratio = 1.0
input_toggle_fast_forward = *press your favorite button in order to enter fast forward mode - can even be the C-stick*

This way the game will run at the normal speed even if some levels make the FPS drop a little.

It errors out with

In file included from src/burn/burnint.h:36:0,
                 from src/burner/statec.cpp:4:
src/burner/libretro/burn_endian.h: In function 'UINT64 BURN_ENDIAN_SWAP_INT64(UI

src/burner/libretro/burn_endian.h:54:34: error: 'BURN_ENDIAN_SWAP_INT32' was not
 declared in this scope
  r.l.l = BURN_ENDIAN_SWAP_INT32(x);

so I guess that's not an option. I'll try fba-libretro instead of libretro-fba.

 

[jon2491]

Tried Metal Slug on old 3DS, runs slow (1/2 speed). Guess I'll forget about emulating Neo Geo.

 

[daxtsu]

fba-libretro is still building, so that's a good sign. Hopefully it'll spit out a static library file we can use..

 

[aliaspider]

It errors out with ..

add this to the build rules
