Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[ShadowOne333]

I tested by replacing DX with Redux and, voilá, MSU-1 soundtrack. Since the MSU capability is not mentioned on the submission page of Romhacking, i thought it wasn't made yet. Super cool!

Well I reference DX in the hack's page for further changes, so yeah

Scph5002 for NTSC is the BIOS needed.

Thanks for the answer and where do you put it in which folder

 

[the_randomizer]

Thanks for the answer and where it colacala in which folder

Make a BIOS folder and tell RetroArch where to find it in the settings.

Is there any changelog anywhere ? What are the differences between the Dec. 18 releases and the last ones like today or yesterday ? It's hard to catch up

 

[niuus]

Thanks for the replay, niuus.
I downloaded the emulators directly from the AppStore, so in each emulator folder I only have the emulator .elf file, the icon.png file and the meta.xml file.
Is there any central location where a .cfg file (or similar) is found to save the LibRetro general controller settings?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, the retroarch folder in your SD card.

It isn't. Just check:

Snes9x Next RPX is still broken, it loads one ROM up just fine, but any subsequent ROM loading will result in a crash

Thanks, but that's not the Wii U builds I guess, is it ?

There hasn't been Wii U commits in a few days, last one was for better SD read speeds.

Do you have by chance a list of the stable ones? I don't like upgrading if it will brake some stuff.

I'm sicking to a build of Snes9x Fix94 uploaded, as 12-23's breaks after loading a second ROM. @niuus has a list of working builds, no? There isn't much benefit to 12-23 builds as some are broken with consecutive ROM loading.

Yeah, the retroarch folder in your SD card.

Thank you very much, niuus. I mistakingly thought that downloading those cores from the AppStore was all that was needed for them to work.
Is there any place I can download the default retroarch folder for WiiU? (I checked your GitHub link but it is as little bit confusing.)

Thanks in advance.

If you want to go back to fresh, delete the 2 cfg files in the retroarch folder in the root of your sd card.

That is all you need for them to work, it creates that folder and cfg files when you first run it IIRC, because I don't recall ever having to make that folder.

Thanks, ploggy.
I copied the retroarch folder that I was using for my Wii, and deleted the .cfg files as you recommended and voilá!, it fixed the issue.

Thank you guys for the kind assistance.

Is ps1 playable?

 

[ShadowOne333]

I noticed the latest builds didnt autoload the proper core on boot, has this been fixed or is there a way to make it boot the proper core on boot manually?

I don't know, but you can check out the GitHub report I made, the devs are very much well aware of it,
https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/4251

Like, Snes9x "works" with one ROM load, but second load causes it to freak out. Why don't the cores auto-detect anymore?

 

[b17bomber]

So I suppose the gamepad is the only controller that works right now still? Which dates and the cores are most stable?
