Hacking Emulation RetroArch/Libretro Thread: PS Vita Edition! Nightlies Included

[Ppelle]

tnx you everyone... now it's working... i just ignore i need a .cue file,sorry.
if i can do just a last question, what i have to do when i can find a cue file associated to .bin?
and multidisk games works?

 

[lbruckus562]

I haven't had any problems loading psx roms without .cue files. Seems you only need .cue files when the .bin is in multiple tracks. I could be wrong, but it works for me.

I hear somebody pointing out that the current builds no longer work on PS TV.

It could have something to do with that PS TV controller 'pull request' that somebody sent me, which added more PS TV controller features. Maybe something broke down there. I will talk to him and see if we can resolve this.

delete the retroarch.cfg file, running the app re-generate the config

It was working when l2r2 was added 10/3 on pstv

After 10/4 it no longer works on pstv

I will once my 64gb card arrives today.
Not looking forward to the painfully slow transfer speeds

i just tried my golden sun 2 pal rom, and i just got around 10 fps with the 10/05 nightlies, maybe my bios is not the right one?

Cheating on retroarch psx doesnt work, When will the core be released?
Final fantasy 7 on psx retroarch turns black 3-4minutes inte game, shows NO text either, wrong bios or faulty emulator?
October 3 release

Is it possible to create a bubble that goes directly inte the game instead of loading emulator then choose game?
IF it is, is there a guide or app anywhere?
Thanks for bringing emulator for the vita, youre all kings and queens, mighty!!

Question regarding FBA:

All the CPS1/CPS2/NEOGEO stuff works great even within the fba standalone core, but is the support for other arcade machines lackluster at this time? Perhaps once Dynarec is applied it will help speed things up?

 

[Aliminator]

And there's your problem.
FBAlpha2012 Version does NOT work; use the .VPK marked "fbalpha_libretro" WITHOUT the 2012 suffix.
Also, make sure for Neo-Geo games that you have your neogeo.zip in the same directory; preferably with UniBIOS for ease-of-use sake.

Ok, I changed to the normal FBAlpha but still couldnt get a single rom set to start, tried with Art of Fighting, Twinkle Star Sprites and Kingdom Grandprix, none would even try to boot up. I put some Bios files in the folder where the rom sets also are, these were a Neo Geo Bios which seemed to be especially for FBA (size about 1,5mb) and the Unibios 3.2. I named one neogeo.zip and the othe UniBios.zip.

Wheres my fault, shouldnt at least Kingdom Grandprix start?

Delete your retroarch.cfg and try again. I've had this issue too.

 

[PlaystationTV]

Is pstv fixed on 10/6 ?

 

[jms209]

So 10/5 is the one that's broken?
Should I download 10/06 instead then?

Has the issues been fixed, or will it take a little longer to fix.

The unibios files need to be put inside neogeo.zip, not in a separate zip file.

Honestly, just keep downloading different neogeo.zip files from different websites until you find a set that works, that's what I did. The issue is that there's so many different neogeo.zip files of different sizes that contain different files.

10/6 gpsp has less stalling from what I can tell but still troublesome. Back touch fixed I think? I didn't seem to have that issue with this one lol

 

[Lord M]

after various tries, finally i had SF 4th (3rd hack) launching (normal 4th, not AE 2013). But after this, the game is launched is the normal version; how is possible? lol. If the file inside the zip are hacked, how the game start unmodified? (i dont have any other sf3 rom inside the game folder, only the 4th strike)

Back touch is supposed to be disabled in menu.

About stalling is something very troublesome

 

[DiabloNocturnia]

Most EA Sports games don't seem to get on well with PCSX. NBA 2002 & 2003 freeze as the main menu is beginning to display, the EA F1 games freeze on the licensing info screens.
