Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[ShadowOne333]

That 6 to 8 month number was when we were adding dynarec support to Beetle from scratch, along with writing a full PowerPC dynarec to go along with it. I also hadn't looked at the r3000a's instruction set; which turned out to have far fewer instructions than I thought.

The current situation is that someone else is adding the support to Beetle, and @ploggy has found a PowerPC dynarec already written which should be easy enough to implement; with a similar process for the other platforms. There's a few WiiU specific problems that we're yet to come up with a solution for, but I'd expect to have PowerMacs running something a week or two after the other platforms are finished and merged. As for Wii U; we're looking at possible API changes so I wouldn't count on the paperwork getting done anytime soon.

I love you either way.

Jk, but things are really getting interesting for the Wii U scene without a doubt!
I mean, this week the Wii U got Nintendont with Gamepad input, which is a dream come true for many of us, now the PPC dynarec for Beetle PSX as well, and also, I might be wrong, but @ploggy did you find a PPC dynarec for N64 as well? Or only for PSX?

Either way, I cannot be any happier with how things are going right now for the Wii U.
Makes me not even care about the Switch I have as sitting ducks right now until homebrew comes to it. xD

I am looking forward to the progress of the current Dynarec recompiler and for your work as well, Quark

So If we decide to start a Compatability list for Mame 2008 on on Google Docs. Anyone wanna join in on it and test specific games on diff updates? Just a thought Id like to have it for future reference on what works and what doesn't so no need to keep things on an SD if they don't work.

Anyone have a link for retroarch channel? Link is dead.

It goes back to the Wii U Menu after I launched it. I already have cores on sd:/retroarch/cores

Are you using CFW? It has to be sig patched to work.

Yeah using CBHC. How do I do the sigpatch?

 

[A Plus Ric]

cbhc auto does it. I dunno why it didn't load, then. It is the one I use.

Should I use rpx or elf cores?

 

[A Plus Ric]

rpx.

 

[Borsalino]

rpx.

If I want to setup xmb (avoiding the plain white theme), the folder structure should look like this right?

sd:/retroarch/media/xmb

sd:/retroarch/media/xmb

sd:/retroarch/media/assets/ is how mine is. But i had to change the directory i think for it to work properly. but that was how i was shown and it works fine now. lol

Some exciting time ahead for the Wii/U scene for sure
I cant remember if it was for N64 or PSX either, I'll have to find the post I made.

It was for beetle PSX first I believe

I think the dynarec I mentioned was for n64 and was from Mupen360 ?? its in here:
https://github.com/gligli/mupen64-360

Or it may have been the PSX one made by Ced2911 https://github.com/Ced2911/cloaked-ninja ??

So it was for both emus then, awesome

problem was they came late in the 360 life cycle so the devs never really finished them, shame because for the most part those Emulators run really well, those and the DC/PSP Emulator :/

So nothing good will come of it then.

How good does Mupen360 run compared to Not64/N64 VC?
