Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[ploggy]

Only took 2 minutes to get the game logo to show up lol, but at least it DOES work.

Once the Ps1 emulator is at a workable state, SOTN will be the FIRST game I play. Brilliant game

oh also if you really want to check the terrible interpreter speed yourself for whatever reason, here is my raw build right now:

I haven't kept up with this thread for a while now. Is there any new stuff added to Wii U Retroarch?

Lmao I will test that once I get home hahahahah xD

 

[ShadowOne333]

Oh my, it works?!
Damn!
Can't wait to try those sweet 6 fps by myself

 

[FIX94]

also my changes just got merged into mednafen psx and retroarch so now it can be compiled by anyone.

What is the real reason for this to not work? interpreter? or just because is a build that they haven't even touched yet?

 

[Alcarajo]

Mednafen psx is pretty cpu intensive on pc, i don't think it will ever work at full speed on wii u.

interpreter is just a very slow method for an emulator like this, thats all. it does work after all, just slow.

It works.
The problem is performance.
And I want to believe it is a combination of both, interpreter and untouched build.

Well at least the core compiles now
Maybe down the road someone might work on a dynamic recompiler to get some sort of speed boost, or maybe even ditch it altogether for a new PowerPC dynarec.

Since you can get PSX to compile, can I ask you to attempt to fix DOSbox?

 

[the_randomizer]

Its back up and running. Latest version is now 16.2 most and all emus are rpx

Already tested them, they work great

just got it to run in interpreter mode and I'm watching the PS1 intro right now with a whole 6fps

Hey, it's something, not sure how long it'll before a dynacore

 

[ploggy]

Just tried Megaman x 5 for grins, as you'd expect the speed aint great but the graphics are all there no glitches.
But the controls are opposite, the A,B,X,Y act as dpad and dpad act like the buttons ;p

Lets let the guys finish with all of the working cores, and then focus on dynarec

Why did the latest nightly not include Snes9x mainline? It's more stable, less "hacky" than Snes9x 2010.

@ploggy How? Where's the download for the PSX core? Link pls?

@FIX94 posted a link further up ^^^

Not sure how I missed that, and I noticed the latest RPX nightly has Snes9x mainline missing for some reason.

dunno, i'm still using the initial rpx version of snes9x,

I think Snes9x 2010 will be deprecated for Wii U version eventually, maybe, not sure.

probably snes9x is definitely superior to 2010
