Retrix(LibretroRT) is a massive project aimed at porting all libretro cores to UWP. It currently supports Nes,Snes,Sega Master System,Sega Game gear, Sega CD, sg 1000, Playstation, Gameboy, Gameboy advance, and many more to be ported soon. This guide will cover installing Retrix for your xbox one console.


[1.] Download ProjectPgeasus (If you already have ProjectPegasus this step doesn't apply)
https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/raw/master/ProjectPegasusSetup.exe





[2.] Once Installed just open it up and select RetriX. Now just wait for it to download. All you have to do now is Sideload Retrix on to your Xbox One (If you don't know how, follow the full guide here https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/blob/master/binaries/Installing APPX Packages.pdf )

[3.] Enjoy! :yayone:

Retrix brings with it support for local 2 player something we have not had until now. It also opens the floodgates to every single emulator that is currently inside the scope of the libretro project. You can see a full list here https://github.com/libretro

I had been sitting on releasing Retrix for quite a bit now but it has finally reached a point where it is stable enough for release. Credit goes to Albertofustonini for creating and maintaining the Retrix Project. Credit also goes to @kingtut for advocating for a Libretro/Retroarch port for Xbox One. You can follow current development on the official github page https://github.com/Aftnet/LibretroRT

Can you please give me a quick tip?
The second controller works in xbox but as soon as I open a ROM, it doesnt work. There's no setting as well.

Thanks
I really don’t have any tips.I’ve had no problems playing two player games with the genesis and snes emulator just by having both remotes on. Haven’t tried it on any of the others.

ok, thanks I'll try again. You're using retrix I'm assuming? And can you confirm NES as well?

Thanks again.

Same for me with retrix 2.0.1, it returns to the screen.

I used same dependancies as with 1.9.4.

Also here is the changelog, using google translate:


Initial version of the RetriX 2.0 cycle

  • Strong Dependencies Removed on UWP - The shared assembly is completely cross-platform.
  • The RetriX repository is now separate from the cores it uses
  • RetriX uses NReget's LibRetriX as the basic interface of the emulator
  • Added user selectable filtering options, which can be changed at any time in the game: linear and near next

thats kinda weird that this has been released, i've been following his github page and nothing has been updated for release, anyway if its having problems on xbox one your gonna just have to use an old version and let him know that its not working

Edit: i didnt even notice he had a new gihub thats why i didnt see a new release

There's 2 githubs - one for retrix (new) and one for libretroRT.

How do I contact him? I don't have a github account - when I try raise an issue it says needs to sign in.

Okie dokie, So I'm having a issue with extracting after I downloaded from using Pegasus. I go to file location then extract and it says "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged". I've tried this exact tutorial and done exactly everything shown. Also have tried all appx and all say this.

Updated my winter also. Anyone else having this issue?

Has anyone gotten CPS 2 games like armed warriors or Alien vs Predator to work?
I just get a black screen. Same with IGS PGM games.

Edit:
CPS2 work fine with fba romset 2.97.42.
Sometimes I have to restart Retrix after changing an arcade system or otherwise it will freeze when trying to pause, but overall it works.
