Hacking Official Xbox One Retroarch Thread

[VidGamesPete]

Libretros latest source code compiles and runs really smooth. I tried the version posted here and I love the option to load roms from the internal/USB. The version here was hanging up for me. Especially downloading and unpacking the assets took a very long time compared to Libretros latest source code. I really like the work being done its amazing. If I had more experience with coding I would help out.

Does enabling Dev mode cause the console to delete Save data at all? Only reason why i havent tried yet.

No

It will if you switch from Dev mode back to Retail mode and forget to uncheck the setting to delete everything. But it will NOT when switching from Retail to Dev.

Isn't there a way to stop that nag? I don't understand why Microsoft made that by default?

save data is in the cloud so they wont get deleted because of dev mode

you could get a new console and still have your saves as long as you have your xbl account still

Because dev mode is technically a sandbox, and this feature allows developers to not have to worry with the hassle of manually clearing everything when something is ready for release.

do other controllers work, like snes usb controller?

As far as I know, they don't. Testet with a NES usb clone controller off ebay. That did not work.

Keyboard input (at least in the menus) is supported, so I'm kind of stumped as to a simple usb HID controller doesn't work. Maybe key mapping is off?

To sum it up, doesn't work out of the box with the current build (as of 31. jan.)

It might be because of the limitations of developer mode and the Xbox itself. Xbox supports keyboard and mouse support and would include it in dev mode for devs to check the implementation. More than likely Microsoft blocked other inputs because they wouldn’t be supported in retail.

Yeah It seems like Dev mode doesn't support Xbox one arcade stick as well which is a big let down for me,I'm able to control it in the menu but once I launch retroarch on Xbox one it doesn't work

Does retroarch let you configure the buttons in the main menu with it?

Does it work in other programs running in dev mode?

 

[dominater01]

you guys update the config for controls first to see if it works?

warning tho doing this slows the build down on launch

I haven’t tried any of the builds yet so haven’t tried anything yet but read online how other ports had problems with remotes not working and looked over some of the steps people took to resolve the issues. I also read there’s going to be a new version of retroarch coming out this week.
