Homebrew RELEASE Development Thread - RetroArch libnx

[Treeko]

Hey guys, I know that the OP said not to ask for the psx emulator, but seeing as there is no update regarding it, I just wanted to ask do we have a working psx core yet?

Not in Horizon no. With Lakka yes

Ok so I just downloaded the all in one package which is the new and improved retroarch. It looks different than the version I had last so a few things are confusing me.

1. What are the different load cores

2. How do I actually play my emulators/Roms?

3. I went to load recent - / - switch - roms - SNES.... and when I try to play one of my roms it gives me browse archive and load archive. Both are blank unlike the last version of retroarch that I had. what am I doing wrong?

Sorry if I sound like a moron

Edit 1: I figured it out. I reuploaded the package onto the sad card and now the SNES 9x Core is on there. Not sure why it didn’t happen last time but now it works

Sorry if I missed it, but what is the button combo to press to get back into the Retroarch menu from within a game?

I can't figure out how to play multiplayer with single joy-cons at Snes9x2010, e.g. at Super Mario Kart. Can somebody assist me, please?

U dont. You need a 2nd pair right now.

@CatmanFan Any luck on the Vice c64 core displaying the correct menu text?
The emulation seems ok, so seems so close to be usable.
Cheers!

I'm not to say I can fix that...it's probably just a PoC/test build at this point, sorry.

New RetroNX stable update
Updated libnx version

(Before you ask, yes the missmatch in brightness of splash/menu is on the todo)

This build has some perf. implications, freezes and is considered preview.
But works quite nice!

@m4xw hey sorry to be a bother but on both of the builds you just posted, i having trouble loading the cores them selfs or the roms, just takes me in a loop, ie if try and select a rom of any sort through say load content or load core only core shows is retro nx even after that i takes me to the quick menu, so ive not been able to get a games to even load am i doing something wrong?
Edit: Solution Found directory was not configured all works great

Just a note about the Virtual Jaguar core, the games which are just lazy ports that primarily use the 68000 processor rather than the two main processors actually run pretty well. Cannon Fodder, for example - the sound is slow as treacle but the game itself seems to run pretty close to full speed. I reckon most games which primarily use the 68000 processor (i.e. 16-bit ports) will probably run okay.

Lakka which runs in Linux whereas RetroNX is made to run in Horizon.
