[kkusagami]

wow ,thank you so much ,digimon world 2003 used to run at 30-40 fps ,and now 60-80 fps ,very nice.
Edit : but still has glitchy gameplay background ,or stuttering background.

Ace Combat 2 is reaching full speed and now i'm a big, fat, happy old neet

I give up... Any file extension I try and run on the core just crashes my 2DS. If there is a known good method or some type of configuration, i'll try it.

Almost every game I tested crashed with arm 11 exception at some point. I hope this will better, 3ds has by far the best and enjoyable screen for this kind of games.

I am actually pretty excited about this update and will most likely buy a new 256GB microSD card just so I can throw on a few PS1 games to test them out. I can only see this getting more stable and more finetuned as time goes on.

I'm using the .cia installation plus I've added the .cia in the cores folder of my retroarch folder on my sd. The arm11 crashes are a pain in the ass, but I believe there's a way to avoid it or reduce them. You could also try to format your card, as long as you backup your files etc..

Got 60 fps in Parasite Eve 1.

.pbp file, didn't play with the settings, just installed the cia and tried to run it.

Oh god yes, now i can retire my PSP, as PE was the only game that made me use it from time to time.

Huh, impressive indeed, now I just need to replace the batter in my 2DS XL (which is all but completely dead, and those aren't fun to replace). And update Luma, as that too is quite outdated

 

[PrincessLillie]

Incredible. I didn't think it was possible.
What's next, full-speed N64 emulation?

 

[Deleted-481927]

do i NEED the bios for any increased fps? or can i just stick w hle

also crash bandicoot is stable af but not full speed like it was

more playable

I would doubt it, because the N64 is such a "beefy" machine. At least, that's what other people said.

Beefier than PS1?

 

[fyredragon]

Beefier than PS1?

Not sure. There was some proof of it running, but very very sluggish and audio glitches. If I had to guess, it might be like this very topic. It starts off with a proof of concept, and then turns into a full fledged emulator that runs all N64 games. We never know.

 

[Doczu]

Beefier than PS1?

Yes. And other than that emulation for N64 was for a very long time also lagging on PC. PS1 had a higher "priority" than N64 due to popularity.

 

[SnakeOil992]

Beefier than PS1?

Yes, quite beefier, but that's not even the biggest problem about emulating N64 games. N64 emulation in itself is very troublesome. You can't get full speed with many games even on PC. Even in 2019.

Huh. Today I learned.

When people are mentioning a .cia, is there by any chance a standalone PCSX Rearmed cia built with the new renderer? I only want PSOne emulation and find installing all of Retroarch a bit bloated. Plus I'm a bit of a newb in this department.

In any case, anyone got a link to this .cia?

You can just install the psx core from the cores folder. No need to install the rest

Still find it bloaty tbh, I prefer just a PCSX Rearmed icon on the main screen.

That game was ported to the 3DS as Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy.
