Homebrew RetroArch Switch

If i'm not mistaken it now uses a new gliden64 vid plugin, and theoretically it's the most recent and updated one, but practically it peforms a bit worse out of the box than the previous svc build. I heard tweaking some settings migh improve perfomance (correct me if i'm wrong bout this). And you can also use the svc build (previous one) as well if you want to...

Here is the Mupen SVC build (also named internally so you can have the glide core and this at the same time)

Fix for the bug is pushed and will be on the next nightly cycle + we will hotfix stable.
Bot is so sloooooooooooooow.........

Is the bug in the core? Can I just replace that one core?

replace *everything*

 

[regnad]

replace *everything*

Ugh. Really?

Has the stable been hotfixed?

 

[dimitrij2k]

replace *everything*

Nope, you don't have to! Just go to the nightly build page and Download the "loader update". That replace the nro file and everything is working

You will have to replace every core and loader, lol.

Could you please share your settings ? I Revert back to previous mupen64 build, everything is back to normal.

Could you upload a short video for wipeout64? Maybe it’s not running fullspeed for me, but I didn’t noticed any stutter or audio issues, GoldenEye has been always laggy for me, no matter the build.

As a rule disable vsync, set driver video threaded, same with audio, OC on 1500Mhz or more should be enough for wipeout64, the only thing I noticed horrible pop-up in tracks, but maybe it’s how the game is.

I really didn’t do any specific option for this game, in fact I have everything disabled except frame buffer.

Oh, I also have GPU OC at 460 in handheld mode via sys-clk.

Do you know if the stable has been fixed?

 

[Sonikkua]

Do you know if the stable has been fixed?

Apparently:

At last, RetroArch 1.7.7 released! This absolute mammoth release manages to be of even bigger significance than the last! First alpha version of Xbox One/UWP port, Desktop UI Settings, Menu widgets, New GLCore driver, GL 1.1 support, where does it end?! https://t.co/WE3ScV3XLH pic.twitter.com/OylPoalPl9

Installed stable, changed the video settings, loaded up PPSSPP, noticed the new notifications, everything seems to work.

GoldenEye has been always laggy for me, no matter the build.

It works close to perfect on lakka, blew my mind

By fixed I mean the bug the m4xw found after 1.7.7 stable was initially released? m4xw discusses this just above in this thread.

Does your link address that? Maybe I’m just not seeing it.

its just easier to just test it and see if it works

Shrek The Third (only PSP game I tried) isn't working past the menu screens, Retroarch crashes beyond that. I even tried the PPSSPP core from the other thread which had the cores/system/PPSSPP directory and files which I didn't find with the retroarch download

Well I updated to the latest nightly yesterday evening and now it is working Like a charm. Slowdowns were visible even at the title screen where you can see the blue waves.

I'm having config trouble, would appreciate some help! I completely restarted with the latest version of retroarch and dropped my "retroarch-core-options.cfg" file in the main retroarch folder. I updated the core name in the text to match the core I am using (mupen64plus_next_libretro_libnx.nro) see below but they aren't pulling through...

I have changed the settings via the menu but now have lag/stutter and not full screen.

Am I doing something wrong? Are there any other menu's/options i need to tweak. If somebody has a config file working for latest cores that would also be great!

edit - turning video shaders off seemed to fix!

one curious question why is it not possible to play ps one games with a higher resolution ?

 

[Rahkeesh]

PSX-rearmed is software rendering and barely runs fullspeed on the Switch CPU, there's no way it could reasonably support 2x native resolution and the like. PPSSPP uses opengl for 3D GPU acceleration and is more accommodating. (Although I was surprised that Tactics Ogre doesn't seem to run well like that when Crisis Core goes 3x pretty easy.)

a little context would be nice

 

[dishins]

i have two issues with latest stable on latest atmo and 7.0.1 FW

1 - switch goes fatal when exiting retroarch from menu
2 - switch goes fatal when starting dosbox core

anyone else?
