Retroarch is now on Retail Mode (Xbox Series S/X)

[BOXakaJOEMOVES]

All those working here from USB except I haven't tried psp. My sega dreamcast games are in .chd format.

Do you have the CDI's for King of Fighters XI and NeoGeo Battle Coliseum? Those are the only Atomiswave games I am currently missing.

I found PPSSPP Standalone to be much more forgiving than RetroArch when it comes to setting up your PSP Library. I did manage to get FlyCast Core to boot my DC Games (Hokuto No Ken, Capcom VS SNK 2 & Marvel VS Capcom 2 just to name a few) within RetroArch by brute forcing my BIO's setup (extracting everything to a Root Folder as well as sorting them via Folders per Platform.

While the convenience of RetroArch being the All-In-One IS enticing , I've come to terms that most of the Standalone Apps (FlyCast, PPSSPP, XSXPS2) are much more user friendly and far less intimidating when it comes to setting up everything in app.

Not sure I would have to check on those. Retroarch is same on most systems so If you setup on one you can carry everything over.

Have you downloaded the the dolphin zip from the core system files downloader?

Have you downloaded the the dolphin zip from the core system files downloader?

I just went here: Main Menu, Online Updater, Emulator System Files Downloader and downloaded Dolphin.zip but still the same thing.

My Xbox is in retail mode, in between. I even reset the console earlier today. Do I need BIOS or something like that?

That's the file, and it contains the (legal) bios, although most games will work without it, so it was a long shot...

I have the same issue with PS2 in retail mode (thankfully there's a standalone emulator for that now) when clearly others could get them to work (all correct bios files in place etc), and also Mame2003plus (despite having the romset, which works no problems in dev mode. Or Retrix in retail) whereas my GC/Wii games run fine. For me the program assumes the pcsx2/mame cores are there, and the info files show (telling me the ps2 bios is present) with no issue, but they just CTD everytime, even just trying to start the core without a game..

Hopefully someone with more knowledge can help you. I also tried reinstalling, deleting cfg files, tried the new Lite version of RA, no luck, so have given up and am waiting for a new release which might fix mine. While you're in the downloads section, update the rest, such as core info files etc, though again I'm not sure you'll have much success. Also check settings\directories to make sure it's looking in the right places for your cores and so on?
Just out of interest, what format are your games in? ISO and RVZ are working for me, ditto WBFS for Wii games..

 

[Donnie-Burger]

I have wii/gc working - N64 muppen and parallel kick me back yo menu.

Where do you have your iso files? I found with wii and gc that if they are on the internal they need to be in a particular folder to work. I think it was the localstate\download folder.

It's been a while since I've been involved with the Xbox Scene. I wanted to share something super cool with the community. You can now install Retroarch on your Xbox Series S/X or Xbox One on Retail Mode. You DO NOT need a whitelist. And no you will not get banned from Xbox Live. This is great because dev mode is no longer required. With retroarch on Retail Mode games have full access to the hardware and you have all of your games in one place. No longer do you have to switch back and forth when you want to play Xbox Games or Retro Games.



I've linked the video tutorial here so you can give it a watch if you prefer a more in depth guide. All credit goes to Gamr13. This guy is doing the lords work. Basically there are a few steps to getting Retroarch setup in Retail Mode on your Xbox.

1. Open Edge Browser
2. Navigate to https://gamr13.github.io/
3. Once there, click on Retroarch and select "Download App"
4. You will be taken to the Microsoft Store where you can download Retroarch.
5. After Retroarch is finished downloading just configure it, add your games and you're ready to go. Enjoy Retro Gaming on Retail.

That's it. If you have any questions drop them here.

Thats why xbox is cooler than ps

Is the Xb1s powerful enough to emulate ps2?

Where do you have your iso files? I found with wii and gc that if they are on the internal they need to be in a particular folder to work. I think it was the localstate\download folder.

I have them on an external drive. The folder path is something like D:/games for GameCube and D:/wbfs for Wii games. It used to work until recently. I also tried to browse manually (load game option) instead of using the library shortcuts. An update made GC/Wii games run at full speed and decompress and load Wii games much quicker but, suddenly, no game loads. I tried to reset the console (that was much easier than I expected) and reinstall Retroarch and download the Dolphin zip file but still the same problem. GameCube and Wii games no longer load, Retroarch crashes into the Xbox dashboard. I have no idea what's wrong!

From what I've learned on discord, it's almost pointless to reinstall the app as Microsoft now has it where the LOCALFOLDER is no longer removed for that app upon uninstallation. You have to delete it with ftp to reset settings or use the return to default settings in Retroarch itself.

they're down. gamr on his discord said he was going to wait, because they got taken down in less than a day.

 

[GABO1423]

they're down. gamr on his discord said he was going to wait, because they got taken down in less than a day.

Not only that, he was taking a break this week. So all he has is a shit Celeron laptop that took 6 hours to just upload a few of the apps that are hosted... only for the apps to go down the next day.

So sometime this next week the apps should be up again.

oh yeah, I saw that he was taking a break for a week. I hope this doesn't deter him from uploading the apps, maybe not as often if they're just going to get taken down in a day.

Thats what is failing to launch. Click app store then ok then nothing.

maybe it's an older version? I think the appstore should still launch even if the other stuff has been removed. I had to update to a newer version to get that ps2 emulator to appear.
