I don't follow. What do you mean your "save directories"? Are you talking about "Settings -> Directory -> Savefile"?
Damn bro, use the "Spoiler" feature! lol

Sorry man, bit of a noob here hahaha
I know how to make them into Thumbnails/Full images just dunno how Spoiler works.
With glide and a lower resolution goldeneye is actually full speed for a few seconds every now and then, it's a shock
Yup, I'd like to have the saves stored in the correlating rom folder for that game.
ie: /Roms/GBA/Mother 3.srm
No it doesn't work like that. That setting is the "Global" setting. Here's what you need to do...
Using Snes9x as an example:
- Load a game for the core you want to change.
- When the game starts, go into RA "Quick Menu"
- Go into "Overrides" and select "Save Core Overrides"
- What this will do is create a "Core Overrides" file in the "/retroarch/config/Snes9x/Snes9x.cfg"
- Now you just need to edit that "Snes9x.cfg" and add the following lines..
Code:
savefile_directory = "/retroarch/saves/snes"
savestate_directory = "/retroarch/saves/snes"Obviously you can change the path to whatever you want. In your case, if you want them in the ROMS folder then you would use "/Roms/GBA" instead. And you don't have to go into the "Overrides" and select "Save Core Overrides". You could simply just create the config file manually for each core. But this is nice because it will create the config file for you just in case you don't know exactly what folder name to use for each core.

is there anything about my current core settings and my Video settings you would change?
Yeah sorry I was finishing up with that other post before I got back to you.
So the only thing I see that doesn't line up with my config is...
Native res. 2D textrects: True -> False
And also depending on what game you're playing, you will want to turn "Framebuffer Emulation: On".
But I tried playing Goldeneye and I had performance issues as well. The only way I could get it to play half decent was by changing the "16:9 Resolution - 640x360" and by turning my CPU Clock speeds up in the Overclock menu. But even then the gameplay wasn't perfect. Just keep in mind that not EVERY game is going to work no matter how PERFECT your settings are. The Mupen64Plus core is still a work in progress.

I have a question... It is possible to have specific configurations to load with each core?... Like if I want to have shaders set for the snes core but not the 64 one and so...
Of course! Anything that you want to "Override" in the main config file, you can do so using the "Core Override" config file.
Thanks man, how do you setup the rumble feature?
is it just within quickmenu>options>Player 1 Pak> Rumble ?
Cause i've got it set to that but it doesn't seem to be working unless its only supported by certain games?
Yeah, only certain games have Rumble Pak support. See the link below for a list...
Nintendo 64 Games with Rumble Pack Support
Hm, weird. I tried super smash bros but it didn't rumble at all during a match I tried.
Do I have to set Count Per Op to anything? It's currently set to 0.
Majority of games run great now, thank you!

You're for sure using that latest core that m4xw posted up in post#4930?
Also make sure that you actually have the Controller Vibration turned on in the Nintendo Switch Settings menu.
Settings -> Controllers and Sensors -> Controller Vibration = On
So it turns out all i had to do was delete the core and then put it back in again and now all of a sudden rumble works, i dont even know.. hahaha
Yeah I was just about to post back telling you that I know for sure it works because I just tested SSB out and it was working. Glad you got it figure out though.
Any idea how to remove the Widescreen/BlackBars on the top and bottom for Super Mario 64? It seems to be the only game it does it on.
Does a similar thing for Banjo Kazooie except gives me black on the sides too, it's probably something simple but I just wanted to check if you had a solution.
Thanks for the help man, definately works alot better than the previous core.
Oh and Thanks M4XW, you're killing it!

I did that and also changed it in Video settings to 16:9 but yeah still the same
I was gonna change 16:9 resolution to 1280x720 but it makes the games lag

Try these...
16:9 Resolution: 960x540
Aspect Ratio: 16:9 adjusted
Framebuffer Emulation: True
Overscan: Enabled
Overscan Offset (Top): 10
Overscan Offset (Left): 5
Overscan Offset (Right): 5
Overscan Offset (Bottom): 10
Just a heads up, 1280x720 seemed to be working fine for me with CPU Overclock set at "Stock Performance (1020 MHz)"
