Hey @ShadowOne333, is there a MSU-1 version planned in the future for Redux? If there won't be it is ok, reason i'm asking is because this would be one of my test games for Retroarch Wii U, and would be a great excuse to revisit it from start to finish.

Redux already has MSU-1 in it thanks to qwertymodo's kindness in sharing his code with me.
It should also have most recent fixes too

So does this Stella have the new speed ups or is it just the old .elf updated to a .rpx?
Still same Stella...:(
Everytime I try to compile it I get "libretro_wiiu.a: error adding symbols: Archive has no index; run ranlib to add one"
and running ranlib does nothing?
Strange how only that core shows the error?

Hey guys, what's the current state of this project? How's the speed? I just dusted off my Wii U since installing the kernel exploit in February and want to get caught up.

It has fat32 usb support with the help of cfw, No n64 or (fullspeed) psx yet, it has rpx cores for more memory. snes9x mainline has msu-1 support

Is there any advantages on using rpx over elf files?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

nes for sure goes to nestopia and gba to mgba.

Thanks for the tips...

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!

Just installed some libretro emus from AppStore, and only the right analog of the GamePad seems to work on any of those... is there a way to reach or overwrite the configuration file to make all the buttons work? (had to hard reset the console as I am not able to do anything once it has entered any of the LibRetro emus.)

You need to use the dpad or turn on analog to dpad settings.

Thanks for the fast answer, xtheman166... maybe I did not explain myself properly, as my problem is that only the right analog seems to be working, neither the DPad, ABXY buttons or any of the Left and Right ones (triggers and bumpers) seem to work at all.
As such, I am not able to enter the Configuration options.

Did you use any version before? Try deleting your config files and start fresh.

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.

    @Psionic Roshambo, The Wii U gamepads are tied to the console's region, so its impossible to find a cheap gamepad that supports your model.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Unless you modify your system, of course, and remove the region check.

    @Xdqwerty can we discuss chrono trigger
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @Xdqwerty I like how the game had the middle ages 1000AD, the dark ages 600AD.It was great seeing the post robot apocalypse 2300 like Terminator and enter the matrix. some of mad max and fallout. 2300ad though it could had used more elements instead of just a generic ai uprising. It was a great idea for their judgement day to be 1999 Y2K.

    -great additions if they would have made an expansion or dlc in my opinion would be finding out humans trapped in a matrix -

    a follower having a cyborg character living tissue over metal endoskelleton like terminator, and the synths from fallout
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    4After Zeal fell it would have been good to see more ancient eras. Perhaps Sumeria based in one area, then Egypt based in another area, Greek based in another area, then roman based in another area before the middle ages.---------

    ----between 1000ad and 1999 is a big gap they should have had the age of revolution like the american and French Revolution

    then the cowboyy era in one area of map and the Industrial revolution/age of enlightmentthen a ww1 and ww2 and a cold war era
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    they could have added 75,000 bc like assassins creed. zeal was already establish in 12, 000 bc , soething before the kindom rose
