Hacking Emulation RetroArch/Libretro Thread: PS Vita Edition! Nightlies Included

[BlackHeartV]

Is there a way to enable analog sticks in game? Im assuming that Im missing a big setting somewhere

Get into the Quick Menu, Controls and change the setting of User 1 Analog to Digital Type to either the Left or Right stick, whichever you prefer.

So awesome seeing things run so smoothly

No worries man, hopefully you find Adventure Red as fun as I did

Hi. I'm playing through pokemon adventures red. And while I am enjoying it, I'm having some issues. The levels for enemy trainer pokemon are too freaking high. Right now I'm at pewter gym. Everyone has pokemon at level 15. Mine are level 10 or lower. So I'm getting my butt kicked. The wild pokemon levels are 3,4,5. Meaning that using them to train my pokemon up to level 15 would take forever. Especially with no fast forward button.

I have Castlevania Symphony of the Night I wish to play from a memory card game save.

How can I get pcsx_rearmed to recognize the memory card save properly?

This particular save I can get as a memory card extension (mcr or mcd) or just the save as mcs which is located here

Thank you anyone who can help me figure this out.

I'm waiting for the toolchain to be updated on the buildbot, when that happens you guys will get a new build with L2/R2/L3/R3 support for PS TV and rear touchscreen support for L2/R2/L3/R3.

Hey, right now I have 2 vitas. One with my main account entirely backed up to my computer and then my hacked vita which I'm not willing to risk an account ban with.

Is there anyway to take a PS1 game backed up through content manager and somehow get it on the hacked vita and have it work?

Use uni bios

Make sure you have Uni bios in neogeo.zip

Go into quick menu
select options
select use unibios.

If you press square triangle and circle and start together on the bios screen you can select the region and arcade or console mode
if you press just T C amd O then you get into the settings

in game using above also does stuff

I have posted a link a few pages back

Okay now if you launch pcsx and find out that the menu is completly out of control just remove your big finger from the rear touchpad....
For now i'll compile a custom version of it with front touch support because i just hate the rear touch. In 3 years, it too often annoyed me while playing :/

Damn I hope it will not be the same for the other core x)

 

[ArugulaZ]

Heck, just being able to escape to the main menu with the touchscreen would be great. And yeah, the back touchpad was a stupid idea and Sony should feel bad for coming up with it.

desmume are planning for work ?

I was wondering about this as well. Can we transfer our backed up copies of PSN games to our hacked Vitas with QCMA somehow, and maybe dump them with Vitamin on our hacked Vitas?

on reddit forum i see a psx eboot.pbp for pcsx vita pcsx read the eboot pcsx from psp ?

 

[rickpower]

i cant find Game Boy Advance (VBA Next) in the list

 

[Imhullu]

Just checking back. I set up the bios folder with the recommended PS1 bios files, and testing the games again. No dice. Also tried a couple .bin games, Valkyrie Profile and Guardian's Crusade. I get crashes in the same exact place as with with pbp versions. Here's my folder bios setup.

Also, I tried that Vita Fix Permissions app, but got the same results. Figured it was worth testing with that.

yes you can read ps1/x games that had been converted to pbp for the psp its even smaller then the bin/cue files also if you have a game like ff7/the legend of dragoon etc that has multiple discs you can combine them in the pbp

 

[rickpower]

where is the gba vpk with 60fps

the pbp need to be on the folder ?and it need just the pbp file?

 

[BlackHeartV]

Just the .pbp file No need for folders, just put it into wherever you would've put your bin/cue files. Do rename it into something more recognizable though, Eboot.pbp isn't exactly helpful :3
