I thought I already told you to...

Try deleting the config file.

Still no dice. It recreated the config, said "Welcome to Retroarch" again, but doesn't start browsing there (starts from USB and SD selection). I have both hdd and sd plugged in but set the file browser directory to the sd. Closed and relaunched still nope.

Also I guarantee this worked in a previous build.

Ok, I updated the rpx files for the main Retroarch and Mame 2003 now they just freeze when I try to load them. Other homebrew loads fine but ese freeze. Any fix

So did you compile these builds yourself? Just wondering, because they need updated for USB support, which will also speed up the SD access. Still takes a LONG time to load roms for Stella. I even have them in separate folders by letter, and it still takes some time. I've got a complete collection of Atari roms, which includes everything, prototypes, hacks, etc.

Yeah I built them a while ago Iv'e tried building the newer ones but cant get it to work. I either get one to compile but get nothing but a black screen when testing it or I get a load of errors
It's just beyond my skill level. lol

EDIT:
Here are the libretro.a files for those Emulators maybe @FIX94 or @aliaspider can get them to work with the new updates?

Regarding my earlier issue with DSI Exception Errors, I have found that opening archive with core solved the issue.

Quick question, i see that libretro's fork of snes9x has already added msu-1 support, is this working on wiiu yet?

I don't know, I'd like to know this myself, I know it's in the GitHub branch a week or so back (or so I've been told), does anyone know if this works in the Wii U port @ploggy @qwertymodo ?

I.....Think So? I just downloaded and patched Link it the Past DX and run it in the Snes9x core... and I have to say it sounds pretty damn good lol
The reason I'm not too sure is because it's a rom hack they could have just changed the normal sounds anyway. But to me it sounds better

Hmm, are there MSU-1 ROMs you could test maybe?

Umm, that link to the past dx IS a msu-1 rom lol

 

[the_randomizer]

Oh, so you have the ROM, PCM files, etc? Huh, I wonder if save states break MSU-1 support though, as I know Snes9xGx had that flaw, will try myself

Yes the little buggers 350mb too

Yeah just tried to save state and music stopped (also dont use rewind) You have to exit and re-enter an area for the music to come back. But apart from that Emulation speed and music quality is great

Huh. I'm even more surprised that no one else tried lol or even bothered to test it out lol, currently using Fix94's test build (the one with the libfat), I assume that would work fine

It does work with libfat build of snes9x. I'm enjoying fzero with msu1 now.
Edit: I'm using the latest nightly

 

[ShadowOne333]

So MSU-1 in Snes9x main is now a thing?
Damn, if only the little thing was compatible with BS Zelda.
I might give it a try with ALttP Redux just for shits and jiggles though

Wait, how is your rom+audio files setup?

I have the pcm, sfc and some manifest file in a folder... and I load the sfc file.


Edit: also after some further testing the sound does seem to crack every now and again.
