Wait who was the one who made the previous compilations of the cores?
Was it you or someone else?

It WAS me lol but something changed with how they compile and it stopped working for me..

Ah that explains it.
I was wondering why you were asking for compiled versions of those cores if you were the one who made the previous ones. xD
Perhaps @brienj could help out with that.

How do i get the nice backgrounds on xmb, i just have a white one with white lettering.

 

[pedro702]

btw you could have added the HATARI core and atari 7800 (its compiled on old versions already right?)

Download the assets folder and stick it in the media folder on sd card. It can be downloaded in the retroarch app under online updater or on the libretro site. Downloading on the wii u wouldn't extract the assets zip though for me I had to take out sd card card and do it on pc.

It was implied when I wrote Atari.. Maybe I should have been more specific.

EDIT: Made the Atari Cores more specific

I already have the assets folder, or else i wouldnt have xmb, i want to know how to get the backgrounds to work

 

[ShadowOne333]

I believe Stella is the overall core for anything Atari isn't it?

Change path for it in the path directory setup then

stella is just atari 2600
handy for atari linx
hatari for all the atari computers
Pro System for atari 7800
Virtual jagaur for atari jaguar
and im not sure what is the name of the core that plays atari 5200 tbh.

I already changed the assets path, do you mean dynamic backgrounds? What do i set it to?

OK Twinaphex just posted and said we should narrow down the list so it's a bit more manageable.. So my question to you guys is what cores should we prioritise?

I'm thinking Dosbox should be prioritised? @Columbo2811 @Antonio Soler @wicksand420

Motherf*cking Mupen64 right nawzzzzz!!1!11!!
JK in order it should be something like this:

• Dosbox
• Atari ST/2600/7800 (Hatari/Stella/Prosystem/Lynx)
• MSX (BlueMSX/fMSX)
• Game and Watch
• Commodore 64/16
• Amiga
  
• Vectrex
• Odyssey
  
• Amstrad

I wrote them down in order of notoriety and how requested they are.
