Homebrew Citra - Unofficial \ Chinese builds discussion

[Slidingbass]

heey guys i have been looking on this forum for a couple of weeks now but i dont really know what the best build for my specs is. ifanyone could help me out i would appreciate it!

Proccesor: Intel(R) Core I7-6700HQ

So which version should i use? Nehalem, SandyBridge, Haswell, Bulldozer, generic, Ryzen or skybridge?
and should i use the VS2017, LLVM5.0.0, ICC18 or GCC7.2

i am a total noob at all of this XD just trying to find the fastest build (for monstre hunter gen)

Your CPU supports avx2 so try the VS2017 avx2 one

[Tatarstanin]

Yours builds the best for me. Honestly.
Can you also explain to me, why you deleted the multiplayer function from yours last builds?

Maybe a mix up, sorry.
--------
Well after a hell of a lot of merging and un-merging with Bleeding edge, and compiling for test, Look like ding ding ding we have a winner into what might have broke "Fire Emblem Warriors" this branch is the only on one merge that brakes the game from loading up..

Yep brakes after this branch from working and game stop's working at startup
https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-bleeding-edge/commit/3174bfd50c69dfa523671b96448113996a0bc42c

Although with latest builds of Citra some of this coding is missing, Maybe the citra team pros can look into this ?

 

[VİOLENTİA]

matif where are you pls add new llvm bıild =)

 

[mohan226]

If anybody wants a Linux sickc build, here it is. Nothing fancy like optimizations. I just cloned sickc's sandbox_test branch and compiled it with default options in the Citra Linux build guide.
Wait, how do I post the link? I'm not able to post it.

"Fire Emblem Warriors JP/EU/US"

Ok, after doing this I got the FEW Game to Start Up at least on latest the Citra Canary build!

My Potential Fix workout here..
https://github.com/Jhon591/citra-1/commit/16e5e2f5e80b1a7a14e835bbacdb1eccf52ded01

However this dose NOT Prevent the Freezing on loading Screen again, What ever I did at this time last year, Must have been some think to do with the Core Timing to get it pass the loading screen freeze.., I feel that it maybe the FIFA branch at the time, but some of this is missing over a year..

So we could try working on this..

@Citra teams anyone to look into this and help ?..

Why is posting links to these Chinese builds not allowed? I'm assuming it's related to piracy and whatnot? Can someone explain to me what it is about these versions that make them faster but also make them illegal?

The original guy from there stopped his build's long ago, forgot his name..
Most of the one they have now are from here, and main Citra are canary..

It would be just looping back to where it came from lol

 

[drwhojan]

How did I miss that ?.. his texcache2 updated lol
https://github.com/Phanto-m/citra/branches

Starting to compile with latest texcache2, Should be with you later
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Jhno591/citra/build/1.0.52

Edit: that's much better ^

Newer one to come later.
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Jhno591/citra/build/1.0.53
--------

EDIT, Good news "Minecraft" is now Playable, If setup correctly and not to fast, (Note) "Do" Do some setting first to prevent errors be four loading, like Citra as name and Small World / Maybe Creative / And Flat world I chose, The Game loaded up without errors.

(Note) Controls are Awful, Unless you have a good gamepad!

Cause some Chinese Builds aren't license plus free shared_font.bin and NAND dump which are copyrighted in short, pirated copy. So yeah. The last build that I got with those files by accident was few months ago. But then, why would I when I already have those files by dump?

Drwhojan the new commits in texcache2 fixes the Pokemon outlines and allows upscaling

Does this version crash when you enter a battle? Could you share the build?

We should stop post sickc's builds, because official team dosen't like it.

1. sickc is from Taiwan (I don't know he think he is Chinese(中國人) or Taiwanese, but I think we are Chinese(華人) @@).

2. There are only two Chinese builds are illegal, one is gdmk, the other one is never shown here, and also rarely shows in Chinese community, some of Chinese doesn't like that build.

3. sickc's builds are not illegal, that official team member dosen't like those builds just because sickc merged some codes that they are not allow at this moment, there are not many open source projects do this, I also think sickc doesn't know he merged codes that aren't allowed.
