Homebrew Retroarch Emulation Thread (Nightly Builds Included)

[ArugulaZ]

Still having problems with the Neo-Geo emulator! Help, Popeye!

 

[Drak0rex]

I'd still like to know how to get the PGM games to work. I asked a few pages back, but nobody answered me.

What will it take to get rotation fixed?

I actually like how rotation flips the screen. I wish that were a separate and intended option. It's fun replaying old platformers going right-to-left.

Will DSP audio fix the terrible sound from the PSX Core?

I'm curious of this as well, but I can't get DSP to work myself and I can't find any report of a non-dev actually using DSP audio successfully.

What's not fun is having to flip the 3DS sideways while looking into a mirror to play vertical games.

Use mame 2000. Its faster anyways.

For games that work with it, I do. However there are many games I can't get to boot.

 

[Vague Rant]

@Drak0rex You never need to play in a mirror, you should experiment with rotation some more than you have. Try other rotation values; I don't have my 3DS on me currently, but two of the four options are not horizontally flipped. They'll still need you to rotate your 3DS screen (or just play sideways), but the flipping is by no means unavoidable.

Anything that should run fullspeed on the 3ds should boot. Are you using the right romset? If not PM me and I'll hook you up with a consolidated romset.

Could anyone please tell me how to load a core? It keeps telling me that no Core has been started but I can't find the option to actually load one...

There is no way to select a core.
Each core is a homebrew app, so in a way when you load an app like CatSFC, you are actually loading RetroArch with an already preloaded core

How can I fix that bug then? Can't use any of the retroarch emulators currently because of that...

As far as I can tell the devs haven't commented on it. You can use an older version for now which works fine, found here courtesy of ihaveamac:

December 9 (cia, 3dsx, 3ds) seems to be the last one before the "No Core" issue popped up.

picodrive is broken!

Yes... A thousand times, yes... Everybody and their brother has told me to use the same rom set and I have been. Would be extremely helpful if people could address my problems as I bring them up instead of getting lost in a sea of other posts and me not knowing what's heads or tails. I don't have time right now, but later, I will be going through all my games and making a list of which ones aren't working. Look for it.

What roms have issues. Have you done a cyclical check on the SD card? Did you do a long format? Have you verified your roms didn't get corrupted while transferring? And what romset are you using exactly? Because 2003 and 2000 aren't the same and it really sounds like you have bad roms. You need to provide all the pertinent information. People are just going off of what you're saying and you're the only one having these issues as far as we know until you tell us otherwise.

Retroarch saves go to /retroarch/cores/savefiles so try putting it there

I don't have it with me so I can't nothing but instruct my nephew. Please be more specific.

So he started Gamebatte just last night playing Pokemon Yellow. He saved but now he said when he loads it up, Pokemon yellow sees save data and he has to start the new game again. So please help fix. Maybe he can start new game again but want to learn how to save progress.

so he saved once, but it's not showing up again? no files were deleted from the SD card? I'm going to try this out...

He saved in game not the RetroArch save state. Nothing deleted. Just played last night and just coame home from school and messaged me about this.
