Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[Cylent1]

same here....

Change the sound driver in drivers to AX, everyone else here has audio, so yeah, it's working, IDK why people are having these issues.

 

[ploggy]

Goto settings, driver, audio driver and set it to AX

No changing the ratio and disable the filter bilinear ?
change the settings have no effect.

It's still pre-alpha, there are still bugs, this is to be expected, please wait till these are fixed.

Strange, the same rom file works perfectly fine using RetroArch on vWii side, so the rom file itself should be intact!? I'll try redownloading it nevertheless, thanks for your answer!

Yes I had that problem with Mario kart works perfectly fine on vWii retro arch but would not work on wiiu retroarch had to redownload from other site and worked perfectly for some reason.

Tks!
I know it's pre alpha but was not sure if it was not something we did not.

Thanks to all who are working on this! Once these cores get optimized and working well (they are already full speed!), are there ways to make a "skin" for Retroarch? I think of how user-friendly the emulators on Wii are...with buttons, automaticly finding/applying cheats, save/load states, Wii Remote pointer support, etc.

Will this be possible with Retroarch? It's easy enough to use as-is, and the emulators already run/respond much better than the Wii NES/SNES emulators. Thanks again!

Lads should I use VC via loadiine or this for the first play through of final fantasy 6

Definitely retroarch. VC on Wii u sucks horribly.

 

[the_randomizer]

Definitely retroarch. VC on Wii u sucks horribly.

It's true, it really does suck in terms of emulation quality, unofficially emulators are always better than official Nintendo sanctioned ones. Is it true disabling v-sync helps reduce audio crackling but keeps it running at 60 fps without tearing?

Seriously? I had a feeling when it bugged for the 2nd time within 3 hours of playing.
Are graphics better too?
Man now I have to go from start again, was already a bit in the game ><

Awesome, it's getting better and better

No, it doesn't

The N64 emulation sure does; Mupen64 is superior in terms of compatibility, emulation accuracy and features. The Snes VC doesn't even run Star Fox or any Super FX games, has washed out colors, it's just bad, Snes9x is more accurate.

I'm still waiting for the stella core lol.

In terms of accuracy, brightness, and quality in general, yes.
