Interesting...Flycast standalone is now a real thing
and it performs quite well.
Flycast Standalone out already for Switch??Flycast standalone is now a real thing
and it performs quite well.
Its not much better than RA core tho, they are pretty much on par. But for ppsspp i'd too suggest using standalone !Flycast standalone is now a real thing
and it performs quite well.
It performs the same as RA core, so its not a necessity to transition to if you are fine with (and get used to) RA core. And anyway lakka's flycast is still the best way to play dc games.
Is it better on the switch version of lakka or you are referring to lakka being run on other systems?
Of course im referring to switch lakka. Overall android/lakka/linux is better when it comes to emulation (except maybe for mupen64, it has some switch specific patches and is supposed to run best on HOS). Which one to use is up to you, they are pretty much the same performance wise. Lakka is just a lot easier to install and use, it's literally just a standalone linux based RA that you can easily fastboot whenever you want using any payload launcher within HOS (or from hekate).
yeah not by m4xw i read other site its still same as RA. Redream is awesome on android while waiting m4xw project done
I actually have a spare SDCard that I plan to use with my Switch solely to play emulated games.
I have a similar setup, one SD for HOS homebrew + switch games and another one with Lakka. In my experience Lakka runs fine with docked mode and at least with the latest version you can play with your joycons detached without problems. My main issues with Lakka come from certain cores, for example melonds works nearly perfect on HOS standalone but has stuttering on Retroarch (I haven't tried retroarch on HOS but I assume it will be worse than Lakka...). Retroarch's performance depends a lot on the game you are trying to run and the core you are using.
1. there is no reason to use a separate SD for lakka
regarding psx emulation I've been using pcsx rearmed but since you mention duckstation I'm wondering if there is much difference in performance between the two? since my experience with rearmed is poor for most of the games I've tried. also, will bios setup affect the performance? don't have it set up at the moment
to put it simply pcsx is shit and idk how people can stand using it lol and you should always supply the psx bios
you would have to see for yourself to know exactly what im talking about but load the same game on the same core in HOS retroarch and Lakka and you will notice the games in Lakka have more of a stuttering look to them is the best way I can describe it. its a known issue that has to do with Tegra itself and can't be fixed currently. its much less noticeable in 3d games though but you will still notice it here and there. in Docked mode it isn't an issue
I would argue about gc and psp, but that's subjective. I've completed a bunch of games using dolphin, like Crash Tag Team Racing, Simpsons Hit n Run, Prince of Persia 1 and Warrior within, Mario Strikers...and i have a bunch of great playable stuff to complete as well. It all comes down to decreasing emulated CPU speed and playing at full speed 30fps instead of native 60 (doesn't work the same for all games tho). For me its more than enough to play gc on switch. But other than that, yeah, you said it all. I mostly play psx and dc in lakka too and the experience is great, except for that psx pulse audio problems with certain games.
changing to Alsathread fixes the pulse issue. as for gamecube when even a simple 2d game like Four Swords Adventures can not run without slowdown and audio issues I'd definitely call it unplayable. the same remains true for all games unless you are fine with audio bugs and slowdown.
