/emugen/ - Emulation General

Have you tried reading the god damn wiki?

Why is the best N64 emu a Wii emu and the best PS2 emulator a PS3 emulator?

Yessir. I went to that forum with the "premium" links, to that other place with some .PKG but nothing there. I did find one but the links looked fishy and there was something about additional software so I steered clear of it.

Just use PSNdl, you fuck

>Persona 5 runs at about 7fps with R5 1600 @ 3.9ghz/GTX 1060
Is this normal?

Oh, and I also found a DUPLEX release that I couldn't get to work, unlike the rutracker P5, which I found through the wiki.

Apologies, I didn't try it out cause there was no P5 in the packages. Gonna check it out again

I can't find anything about a My Boy compatibility list or anything.

Set performance mode in windows with the full cpu power
Set Preferred SPU threads to 1

Sorry to bother you again, the version on PSNdl Under Approval Pacakges is the EU version as well. Is there any major difference between the EU and NA version or is my PC just too shit to run it at more than 1 fps? 4670k processor.

Of course not, because there's nothing about it, because the wiki recommends against using it, because it's compatibility is shit.

>best N64 emu a Wii emu
wrong

okay gonutz

Anyone know why reshade isn't working with the gl video driver on retroarch? Seems to work with d3d no matter what api I selected during set-up.

There's some disinfo going around that Dolphin can emulate N64 games better than Project64.
They don't mention that those games are full of hacks which is why Nintendo could make them work also forget to mention that some games including the N64 Zeldas games run at really low framerate and you have to overclocked Dolphin's CPU to 200% (anything less and you have drops) to even hit the measly 20FPS those games run at.

>Dude, they killed off XP backwards compat. support recently. You really think they give a shit about 9x? Have you actually tried compiling anything with Mingw for XP recently? Because others did, and guess what? You're shit outta luck.
I feel like you're confused. MinGW hasn't been updated for like 3 years and it still supports 95, 98, NT 4, and XP. I know because I used it last year, although I think I remember that you needed to install IE5 for W95 because it installed some required dll. The only major issues I had with it was not supporting POSIX threads and that can be worked around with typedefing some shit.

Pretty sure he's talking about MinGW-w64, not the original

Your post really made me think.

RetroArch will never be considered a mainstream media platform until it can provide a quality experience for displaying video, audio, images, that is competitive to standalone media players. Until then, it'll just be "an emulation box".

Ah, that'd make sense. Found my 95 vm btw, no window border though because SFML is buggy as fuck on 95.

What the actual fuck

how does RA actually manage to lower input lag?

At least it doesn't install malware on your syst-

By getting you to believe that's possible

Hard GPU Sync, which cuts out flip queues
Frame delay can also help

>Hard GPU Sync
Thanks for the answer. Is there more documentation about this? Can any PC use this feature? Are tehre any downsides?

so you think it's fake? I'm just a user lookin to improve my emulation experience.

> Can any PC use this feature? Are tehre any downsides?
It's just extremely ressource heavy, so any PC can turn it on but you need a beefy PC to use that on certain cores.
Beetle PSX goes from about 240fps to about 100fps when I have it on for example.

RPCS3.

Why is the redump Wii set not on archive.org?

It's OpenGL only, may result in performance drops if using it with 0 frames.

thx frens

It was, but got noticed by Nintendo.

Im trying to play persona 3 portable on ppsspp but theres no sound. ppsspp doesnt make any sound in the menu either but im not sure if thats normal or not. Speccy is attached and im using the latest version of ppsspp, theres no sound in the standard or x64 version.

what programs do you have running there?

just curious

also check window sound, maybe you accidentally muted it

Forgot to mention i tried both audio backends under settings. Also tried Acecombat X, same results, game runs fine but no sound.

the first one is iridium, its a fork of chromium. second one is throttlestop, im trying it out to undervolt the cpu a bit. I checked to make sure it wasnt muted and the audio is set t come out of the laptop speakers instead of the bluetooth speaker ive got. Just to be sure i turned bluetooth off.

is the sound enabled in ppsspp

Its enabled under the gamesettings tab at the top and under the setting tab in the main menu. Both games i tried i went under theirs options and turned the volume all the way up.

Persona 5 on the latest build ran poorly on my R5 1600 and this ran way better

Are there any full-fledged, completed, entirely overhauled ROMhacks for OoT or MM yet? Everything I've seen is either unfinished/abandoned, or just a slight mod of the base game, like Voyager of Time or the Nightmare mod. The closest thing I've seen is Zelda's Birthday and it's pretty damn short. I'm looking for the Zelda equivalent of Mario 64 Star Road or Last Impact.

is the device you want to use, the primary device?

Check and see if PPSSPP is using it

By device do you mean speaker? Only speakers connected right now are the built in ones, im not sure how to check if ppsspp is talking with them though.

weird, i changed the backend from openGL to vulkan and it works now. Im not sure why that would fix it, im not actually positive about what a backend is to be honest. Thanks for the help though

could be a bug,

Heads Up!

Next week on 08/08/17 the wiki is going to purge all accounts that have not contributed in the last 5 months, so make sure to do an edit on something to keep your account safe, or don't, whatever.

Does Ridge Racer V emulate pretty poorly? I'm using pcsx2 and even on software mode there are minor issues that aren't present in the original.

> account is purged
> make another one

Might be, just switched back to openGL and its working there too. Computers are strange man, might as well be magic to me.
Now we got it running how it shoould are any of the graphic options worth messing with or will it not make that much of a difference? I dont understand what most of the options do/change

Just to check out, anyone with a stock 4790k playing Persona 5? Looking to compare performance/settings

Yes, RR5 has plenty of issues.

Nothing in particular, just play around and see what works

bump

Any progress on the libretro supermodel core?

>Any progress on--

_(You)

how do I make Genesis look as accurate as possible in RA?

Smear the contents of one(1) jar of vaseline onto your computer screen before launching the game.

Whats causing this? The floating black model does the same moments that I do. Its not present in the current mupen64 core on retroarch, but I cant get a steady frame rate on that.

Is it possible to play P5 in a non vulcan setting? It refuses to run it with vulcan on. And the game keeps crashing around 1 or 2m into the gameplay intro

wat emulator are you using? and what plugin?

Parallel core on retroarch with glide64 plugin.

Use a newer version.

parallel with glide? what the fuck?

Project64 does not have this problem.

Finally! This PPSSPP meme image will be obsolete.

Just need that update to come through... eventually

Any change recently?

Can't really get shit on my R5 1600 at stock, although the original announced build is semi-decent in Casino.

so with the mupen core, what plugin are you using that works? I'm wonderin if it's a core issue or plugin.

Talking about Project64, I'm using GlideN64 and there is some kind of z-fighting(?) on the extremes of the polygons, any way to reduce this?

All plugins have issues and the parallel plugin seems has the same floating model as glide.

The mupencore doesn't allow you to choose a plugin, but i think it uses gliden64 maybe.

This is caused by disabling the framebuffer. Conker's lower poly shadow model is rendered into a framebuffer and used for his shadow. Without the FB, this is rendered in the corner of the screen Did you tamper with any settings?

>Talking about Project64, I'm using GlideN64 and there is some kind of z-fighting(?) on the extremes of the polygons, any way to reduce this?
Could you elaborate on what you mean by this? Screenshots perhaps? Also, remember that GLideN64 2.0 is old as hell. Why the hell do emudevs in general suck at setting up build bots? It's not that fucking hard.

This is not the kind of thing you can see on a screenshot, maybe I can record a video in some minutes. Care to link (or upload) the most up to date GlideN64?

I haven't fiddled with anything outside of plugins.

Yes, I went off my handle. Is that enough to be drawn over hot coals over while many others get off scott free?

Then again, I am asking too much for consistancy of shit.

Gonetz posts WIP builds in this thread. Check bottom post. github.com/gonetz/GLideN64/issues/1364 Copy the Zilmar dll files over 2.0 installation.

I've found it already, I'm reading it right now and JESUS, he's really wasting his time compiling each update instead of setting up a buildbot? Why would anyone do this?

Why would a buildbot be needed when commits are sparse and rare, it would be used only twice a month at best.
You can always download builds from emucr

>Why would a buildbot be needed when commits are sparse and rare
Wot? GLideN64 is getting massive updates on pretty much a weekly basis nowdays.

>You can always download builds from emucr
They're using outdated files in them. Also, it takes AGES for releases.

>GLideN64 is getting massive updates on pretty much a weekly basis nowdays.
Let's not get carried away..

Look at the commit story, the average commit is about 15 days.

What outdated files?

Configuration files.

when are we getting a neoraine core?

holy FUCK WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH RETROARCH?

I LITERALLY SET MY CONTROLS FOR THE CORE 20 FUCKING TIMES

LOAD NEW CONTENT?

LOL YOUR INPUT CONFIG IS GONE FAGGOT

FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT I JUST WANT A STANDARD WINDOWS UI FUCK THIS FUCK FUCK FUCK REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>Why would a buildbot be needed when commits are sparse and rare, it would be used only twice a month at best.

You can set it to only make builds when there's changes numbnuts.

>it would be used only twice a month at best.

Seriously man...

I detect some annoyance.

yes, I am highly annoyed. Why the fuck does it happen? how do I make it JUST WORK?

>set controls
>ignore "save" options
>b-but why it not save?!

no nigger I literally save core overrides
