Yeah tried a nice clean install just puting my savefiles and bios system , play punisher cps1 and after closing and reopen retroarch the history list are buged. =(
Hello everyone! I'm a bit of an amateur so I hope someone could help me out.
I'm having some trouble getting the GBA emulator to use the save files I want. I'm trying to use a save file from the A Link to the Past/Four Swords gba game that has Four Swords completed so that I can play the extra dungeon in A Link to the Past.
I put the save file in /retroarch/cores/savefiles. It is named identically to the rom (zelda.gba and zelda.sav). The save is in the .sav format. It won't read it. If I start the game the save files are blank and when I quit I see that the .sav file is still there and a .srm file is create. I tried renaming the .sav to .srm (so it's zelda.gba and zelda.srm) and that won't work either. Starting up the game seems to overwrite my zelda.srm file with a smaller zelda.srm file that has no progress, all save files are empty.
Retroarch has been wonderful and I've had no other problems with it. I just really want to play that extra dungeon that I missed out on growing up because I didn't have anyone to play multiplayer with. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? If no one can figure it out, does anyone happen to know a cheat I could use to get into the dungeon?
Did you play alien Carnage? Great game, now freeware.
It worked veeery laggy on switch retroarch dos a month ago of course.
I did something like this with Pokemon emerald and for me it worked without problems.I put the save file in /retroarch/cores/savefiles. It is named identically to the rom (zelda.gba and zelda.sav). The save is in the .sav format. It won't read it. If I start the game the save files are blank and when I quit I see that the .sav file is still there and a .srm file is create. I tried renaming the .sav to .srm (so it's zelda.gba and zelda.srm) and that won't work either. Starting up the game seems to overwrite my zelda.srm file with a smaller zelda.srm file that has no progress, all save files are empty.
yeah, the recent opened games
I use ozone GUI if it makes any difference but yeah that's it
Where did the SAV files you're trying to use come from? What emulator?
Nope. Switch isn’t x86, its aarch64. And even if you somehow did get it on Switch you’d be limited to windows for arm shitI wonder if Wine will ever come to the Switch. I was thinking earlier it would be awesome if Dosbox could run Battlefield 1942. But that needed Windows XP which was the NT kernel.
Wat. I was responding to someone else who was asking about Wine on SwitchTo be clear I'm not suggesting we share our pc setups. I'm suggesting we share our Switch setups. I have been forced to use & alter my pc setups which work, of course using Switch core files.
Yes I realized that later, sorryWat. I was responding to someone else who was asking about Wine on Switch
That version of dosbox is public?I made some more test using latest version of Dosbox dynarec core on Switch by @m4xw and fr500 (beta-preview available on my Patreon or on m4xw patron discord channel). Ultima 7 and 8 work fine using 10,000 cycles also. These games are not scrolling smooth, but they never scrolled smooth even on real PC.
Controls are fine using right analog for pointer and ZL/ZR for mouse buttons and some keys mapped to buttons.
