Homebrew Official Citra - New 3DS Emulator

[Rick Astley]

One user already upload it <snip>
i be watch over there chinese site and when new version appear i try to upload it.

Hi, i'm sorry for distrubing but i've a few questions about this :
- First, the link / citra is safe right ? I'm quite paranoiac with that but... we never know.
- The pokemon game are working fine ? (Not speaking about FPS etc, i'll check that with my own config= I've seen some problem with creating files from sd card (and the contrary with KazoWar's working without any problem haha)
- Save / Load states are aviable already ? This is the main thing i'd use with Citra !

Thanks o/

he is right the build is epic fast 70-90fps on oot 60-80 fps in mm3d in game and a link between worlds is 50fps -60

What did you quote me for lol? Anyone can edit or know the keyboard mapping? It is outrageous to play with the pre-mapped keys....

- Links/exe programs on the internet can never be safe. Use at your own risk, unless it is from trusted publishers/developers.
- Pokemon will only work during the intro and after you named your character. After that it will highly freeze. Tested with 4 version of Pokemon on the 3DS (build of the Chinese).
-No save/load state and i dont think it will be implemented in the near future. Many things to do than that.

What do you mean by that?
Did they add inline asm that uses these instructions better than the previous cpp code or something along these lines?

I think this is how it was done https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/pull/1881.

Well @KazoWAR posted a video with a build of Citra and it seems to work with Pokemon games, so perfect
More sad about save state, a huge point for emulation but well not really a problem haha.
Thanks

for those thinking of how to use the sse and avx optimizations when building, a quick way is to either
1. append -m'x' to gcc build commandline. this only builds non-qt citra with optimizations. 'x' is replaced by the extension type, like -msse3 for sse3 or -mavx for avx
see http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.2/gcc/i386-and-x86_002d64-Options.html http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18638051/using-avx-with-gcc-avxintrin-h-missing

2. adding /arch:'xxx' to ms vc project properties>c/c++>commandline. this can build qt citra if it is apllied to the 'citra-qt' project
'xxx' is rplaced with extension type, like "/arch:sse4.1" or "/arch:avx2"
see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7t5yh4fd.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

any one know how to configue cmake to auto make the above options. it will be good for quick optimization on appveyor.

For key mapping, you can get back to default settings by edit the sdl2-config under user=>config， simply delete all corresponding number and leave it nothing, like pad_start=

as for the reason of speed improvement, i guess it was a combination of gcc compiling and benefit of instruction sets,
i'm expecting someone around here is capable of taking advantage of this and compile a better version, maybe merge other useful commits too,

I hope these guys will keep updating the emulator.

I hope too!

As i said, i was editting in the config file but the "sdl" wont use the same keyboard code as the "qt" one. So if normally, 90 is the Z key but in "sdl" it understand as numpad key 2.... That was my question.

So its means anyone can create sse3/4 builds and increase more speed?. I hope so.

I think this is how it was done https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/pull/1881.

Yes i found his repository https://github.com/yami-hack/citra but i don t sure what its same chinese guy who created chinese build. Maybe ask him in pm? if its him maybe we can ask him to build other builds?.

u may need to refer to this since sdl scancode is different with usual keycode https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDLScancodeLookup

You are a life saver. Good lord!! Thanks so much!!

it is possible. i want to try it out so i am reinstalling vs. and the yami guy seems to have configured cmake to use sse4 but only for non-qt and gcc.

 

[likea24]

just testing Citra

Its good. But any chances to configure it for qt too?.

Sorry if the question was answered before but I can't seem to find it anywhere when I tried to google, How I can enable Scaled resolution to 1080P in Citra ??

I have use_scaled_resolution = 1 but it doesn't look 1080P in 3d games or am I missing something ?

 

[master_cheat001]

Have anyone figured out the UI layout for the chinese sse4.1 build? Currently it displays like the default setting.

layots not supports not qt build.

 

[emmauss]

still cant reproduce the sse or avx optimizations

 

[breel]

I think this is how it was done https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/pull/1881.

That would make sense.
Thank you!

1. append -m'x' to gcc build commandline. this only builds non-qt citra with optimizations. 'x' is replaced by the extension type, like -msse3 for sse3 or -mavx for avx

Why not use -march=native instead?
(Assuming you're building your own build).
