Hey guys, I just recently downloaded Retroarch (retail) on my series s, and ran into some problems. The problem is that at some point, Retroarch just doesn't want to open up anymore, like every piece of software on the console when an update is available. I reinstalled it 3 times, updated everything with the online updater and put the necessary files for emulation in the system folder, sometimes I had "luck" and it worked for some time, but eventually every time the same problem appeared. I also activated the 'Threaded Video' and the 'Bilinear Filtering', maybe it has something to do with that? I hope you can help me, have a great day!
How much better is a Xbox One X compared to a base Xbox One for running Retroarch? Is there a noticeable difference?
There is a difference in FPS but not large enough to keep a One X in Dev mode over a fat Xbox. The Dev mode sandbox limits the hardware similarly on both units.
Hi,
I installed RetroArch on my retail XBOX Series S. DC games works like a charme - but Naomi and AV doesn´t load. BIOS is set and the games are located on an USB Stick...
Hmm what´s the problem?
Thx for help,

Been using Retail Retroarch for about a month now. Using filezilla to transfer my files with ease. It's been great. However today I decided to get on and my Retroarch folder doesn't have my Roms folder, Texture Packs or anything anymore. When I FTP it says Im back up to 28/30 GB, when i only had a few gigs left.
When I try to find the folders through Filezilla, they're not there. Yes, Im following the drive my RA shows and I've searched all the other just incase. Anyone know what is going on?

Hi there ! Looks like you have the wrong BIOS files for the ROMs you are trying to play. I had the same issue before ...
I have previously made some tutorials regarding getting Naomi & Atomiswave games working, please read these posts carefully:

Also, loading games from a USB is only a good idea if you are playing 16 bit games under 20MB in my opinion ... a better solution is uploading to the Xbox hard drive itself. This will improve performance immensely when playing large games like Dreamcast, PSP, etc ...
Here is a tutorial on how to do this:

Mt dreamcast from usb loads instantly. Pretty sure this is new RA as before it was slow. Most big games loading fast for me.

Has anyone been able to get DS running well on Xbox One? Tried HeartGold from an external hard drive using both DeSmuME cores and melonDS. melonDS ran at ~45 fps, DeSuME ran at a stuttery, unstable ~30 fps and 2015 won't even load.
Also what about N64? Golden Eye through the internal hard drive on Mupen slogs on at ~15 fps and ~20 on ParaLLEI. Any way to pull more frames on there too?

Do you know how to access the Q/Localfolder/Localstate etc directory to access the retroarch.cfg file? I seem to be stuck, after attempting to access the Q: Drive via FTP it says there's nothing there at all, but I can see everything in the E: internal and D: (my usb storage) just fine?
I've got a the Reference MAME 2003-Plus set and I've got a FBANeo ROM set I created correctly.
None of the ROMs will load. The MAME 2003_Plus core kicks me back to the Xbox menu. The FBA Neo core takes me to the windows 3.1 style screen that tells me it's the wrong or missing roms.
Both cores are fully updated on the Xbox.
The ROM sets work perfectly on my Android box and my Wii U with the latest cores.
It's very annoying. I've tried the ROMs on a hard drive. And a USB stick to no available.
The Xbox just seems to not want to do anything with the Arcade .zip files.
All the usual home console cores work perfectly.
Does anyone have any idea. I've reset the config files. And Installed a newer versions of Retroarch. (which i think will negate any core overrides.
I've got the bioses in a bios folder. Which the Xbox is aware of in the directory settings.

Ive done a few hundred of these builds for people and this happens to me all the time. I have to set security permissions in windows (for USB) a few times to get them to load. Then I manually load them and if they work I scan with xbox to make the playlist and they work from playlist after. Gamecube and n64 will do this as well until you do security permission and sometimes have to reboot xbox a few times. Very annoying but they do work.
XBOX ONE (phat): this console run on retroarch good: Amiga, Atari St, Game Boy+Color, NES, SNES, GBA, Game Gear, Master System, Mega Drive, Final Burn Neo, MAME, PS1, always on retroarch run Dreamcast and PSP but depends on the games, most Dreamcast games run well and many PSP titles run well, 2D and 2.5D titles tend to rare better while for 3D titles it depends on how complex they are, renderings and polygons, in general complex titles run slowly on MAME, FBANEO and Dreamcast and PSP, some NDS titles especially 2D you can run them working on the settings, about PS2 you have to use another emulator, XBSX2, the same goes for the Dreamcast and PSP, it depends on the games, the same goes for XBOX 360 and the XENIA canary emulator.
XBOX Series X: regarding retroarch emulates arcade and 8 and 16 bit consoles like XBOX ONE well, emulates much better Dreamcast and PSP, emulates better PS2 and XBOX 360 respectively with xbsx2 and xenia canary, thanks to a more powerful hardware.
note: applies to XBOX ONE and XBOX series X the compatibility issue, some emulators on retroarch do not work well, you can benefit from the power of the series s but you will find some problems even in games that work due to 'non-perfect emulation, this concerns the standard settings and concerns the shader filters you add, resolution etc. based on how you change the settings weigh down the emulation.
