If you can go a whole thread without asking this, I'll make you one.
Jaxson Nelson
Great start, faggots.
Let's emulate some N64. Never was a big fan of that console and gladly skipped it for a PSX back in the days but I'm giving it another chance. Starting with OoT. It's not bad but the start drags a bit. But Zelda games always have a slow start so I'm toughing it out. Just hope the state of N64 isn't going to bite me in the ass.
Blake Nguyen
>state of N64 emulation
Whops.

What I want then is for you to piss off from my timeline and no longer appear wherever I am talking, and also to shut your mouth online about me. That is what I want. Also, reimburse the money for that Shield hardware would be a nice gesture back. "I don't like you and have no interest in working with you" - yeah the dude who sent you that hardware whom I had to convince to send it to you because I wanted to show my appreciation for your work would be sure glad to know what the return on his investment was - 'alright, hope he stays'. That is what happens when I take chances on people. Pathetic parasite. If you don't like me and have no interest working with me, then you don't need the toys I hooked you up with either. Reimburse the money already. There is a 'donate' button on the website right there, with several options on how to reimburse it. And no, I don't need the hardware back, I need that money you took from a guy whom 'you don't like'. I can find better contributors that I could hook up with some other gear instead, and unlike you they don't stalk me around either and fling mud in my face. Go fuck yourself with your sanctimonious bullshit, and BTW, next time I see you entering another thread again where I am around, one of my repos, places where you were unmentioned, and you keep this kind of 'prodding' along, I will report you. That I can assure you. I am about fed up with your constant vitriolic bullshit buddy and now I'm about to do something about it. You are put on notice here. All your posts are going to be deleted, out of sight, out of mind. Your presence is unwanted and undesired from this point on, and I will make sure that you stay gone.

I would honestly recommend playing the 3DS version. It has a consistent framerate at 30, and plenty convenience updates. Like not needing to open the inventory screen every single time you want to switch boots. Pretty sure it has c-lit camera control as well, with updates. Majora's mask has that by default.
Tyler Ortiz
Why are you playing that? Why not Link's Awakening or Minish Cap? Oracle of Ages and Seasons? Link Between Worlds? Twilight Princess? You have so many better options.
Mason Reed
Restarted Revenge of Shinobi and I'm having a much easier time after reading that you should try to play like a ninja and slowly pick people off. Really appreciate the anons who have been giving me genesis recommendations.
I've completed OoT multiple times over the years with PJ64 1.6, and I would assume that whatever you're using is at least as good as that. I think you'll be fine.
Gabriel Sanchez
The point here is "discovering the N64 library", not getting the best Zelda game.
Still fucking with some shaders. It looks like shit without one and I'm not too satisfied with the results I'm getting with caligiri or hylllian which are my usual to-go-shaders
That's good to hear.
Elijah White
>"discovering the N64 library" Oh. Play something fun like Sin and Punishment then.
Mason Jackson
Can someone explain why the this is happening? I'm on 64bit linux, I thought this was a bug that got fixed? I literally just cloned the github and compiled it and the core update still doesn't work
Ian Stewart
>Pretty sure it has c-lit camera control as well, with updates. Majora's mask has that by default. Just checked. Nope. Still limited to z-target for direct camera control on that one.
Noah Morales
Does anyone have the Mega pack of MAME with hundreds of ROMs ready to go?
I recently lost it all to an HD failure and a ready to go pack would be so much faster than having to download it all individually.
Caleb Walker
What's a good tablet for emulating Gamecube/PS2/Wii? I'm looking for something that's as affordable as I can get without skimping too much on power. 30FPS/720p is acceptable, as long as it's stable and won't drop that much.
John Martinez
how do I upgrade my floppy disc into a hard drive
Camden Carter
>What's a good tablet for emulating Gamecube/PS2/Wii? No such thing.
Benjamin Phillips
A few years and a job will do the trick.
Parker Gonzalez
what platform? post the value of "core_updater_buildbot_url" in your retroarch.cfg
Isaac Turner
I know you said 64bit linux, but is this x86, ARM, or what
Nathaniel Moore
ayy lmao
Apparently it can be done. There's videos of Youtube people emulating GC/Wii on a Surface Pro 4 and a Surface Pro 3. I'm just trying to see if I can get anything cheaper than that since those seem to run from $500-$700+.
I'm using mednafen to emulate PS1. When I toggle full screen (ALT+Enter) the image doesn't stretch entirely, so I'm stuck with a tiny game image with black covering most of the screen. This might be a pretty basic issue, but I couldn't find anything on the wiki nor doing a google search.
Lincoln Cruz
By that I mean RA isn't defaulting to some other config It also gives me a error for downloading ".index extended" whenever I open the core updater. mednafen emulates native resolution user
Jonathan Watson
What about reading the FUCKING DOCUMENTATION on the FUCKING OFFICIAL SITE?!
Logan Clark
>mednafen emulates native resolution I'm aware, but I don't see how that's related. since it looks bigger even when windowed. I don't want 1080p, just make it occupy that wasted space so it doesn't feel like a gameboy.
Julian Evans
>There's videos of Youtube people emulating GC/Wii on a Surface Pro 4 and a Surface Pro 3. Yeah and they only run the simplest, easiest to emulate games.
Angel Sanders
I did, but haven't found anything helpful. There are some things I don't understand, though, English isn't my native language.
Jordan Gomez
You need to adjust the scaling I'm guessing you're on windows? the config file should be filled out already, just find the scaling setting and crank it up
Oliver Cruz
anyone else finally give in and switch to retroarch? i like that it can tell games to automatically launch to a second monitor and fullscreen. its good for frontends
Logan Fisher
>give in What did he meme by this???
Angel Brooks
RetroArch is terrible and it's only hurting emulators. Death to this piece of shit and everyone behind it
Grayson King
Been using it for years with no issue I even switching to compiling the nightlies so I don't have to rely on an outdated repo user pls
Easton Wilson
I don't know about a tablet. As that sounds just plain stupid as FUCK.
GPD Win can play the lighter games at native just fine. Around $300, handheld form factor, built in controls, 720p IPS screen, Intel X7-Z8700 or Z8750, running Windows 10. Hell, it can push out Wind Waker full speed assuming you give it a shader cache. Though I only tried Ishiiruka 700something. As said though, you can only expect the simplest and easiest to emulate games. Wind Waker is just about the limit.
Nicholas Clark
i really didnt want to use a bundle emulator they're kinda aimed at retards
Landon Moore
Yes! That's what I was looking for. The scaling option for PS1 was separated in the .cfg and I was messing with something else. Thank you, user!
Matthew Lee
>Sin and Punishment
Noted. But I'll try to finish OoT first, if only so I can join in when the cool kids talk about it.
Thomas Nelson
Well, RA is aimed for and by retards, nothing new
Caleb Diaz
Those are so expensive because they are decently powered x86 machines. They almost aren't even tablets. If you want a tablet because they are usually cheap, the price/perfomance of a tablet is going to be worse compared to a regular laptop which already much worse than a desktop.
Ethan Taylor
>decently powered x86 machines You're kidding right? ULV with integrated graphics is weak as fuck
Cameron Carter
It's not really a bundle emulator per say, and definitely not aimed at retards. Because retards keep complaining it's hard to use. It's an API system of sorts designed for tight low level performance, for both sync and latency. Not about bundling emulators, but rather just adapting them for use in the same way.
Henry Long
Compared to your average ARM SoC they are very powerful
Leo Parker
Compared to proper desktops or even laptops, yes. But compared to all the other 'tablet' and 'portable gaming' devices out there, these things are a fucking godsend. Ultra low power devices have actually gotten fairly powerful. Like in the Z8700 can push out Wind Waker on 2amp 6watt, if I remember correctly. 'decently' is absolutely the right word.
Carson Wilson
Retroarch isn't an emulator, and if retroarch is aimed at retards, they're doing a fucking terrible job since most anons here can't even puzzle out the simple gui.
Luis Bell
>can't figure out the gui Really? Are you sure those aren't newfags?
Blake Green
RetroArch is an environment emulator. It emulates the frame rate and audio rate required to smoothly play the system in question as quickly as possible. Discuss.
Adam Diaz
>newfags
Some of them are so mad about RA they shitpost about it for fucking years.
Eli Hill
>RetroArch is an environment emulator This is why this thread always dies. No one here knows shit about emulation

I still think moving the xbar was a bad idea. GLUI has it right.

So last thread I was the one who had that random hiccuping and pausing on their psx emulators.
I found out what it was. Had nothing to do with my hdd. Weird as it sounds, it was gpus fans revving up. The temperature settings I had manually put them at would make them fluctuate with how fast they would go. And every time they sped up or slowed down, that's when the stutter would occur.
I'm 99% sure this is the case since I can replicate the problem. Switching the fan setting back to the automatic setting seems to fix it, as does turning off my oc guru software outright.
Glad I figured this out.

If you have an nvidia gpu > nvidia control panel > manage 3d settings > power management mode = prefer maximum performance.
Ian Lewis
What would it do, exactly? I mean it obviously would boost performance, but how?
Connor Jenkins
Stops the driver from underclocking your card when it's "not in use", because the "not in use" detection isn't particularly useful and many people have similar problems to you with it.
Mason Sanders
Is Cemu expected to crash when using rune powers sometimes in BotW? using 1.10 here

It was me. I recommenced every Genesis game you've played so far.
Jaxson Hill
If you're getting a lot of crashes, turn on the "full sync at gx2drawdone" option. It drops your fps though so avoid using it unless you really need to. Also, make sure you're using the crash fix pack included with cemuhook.
Julian Fisher
So how is citra these days? Any playable games?
Alexander Wood
Its not going anywhere.
Joshua Martinez
Check that you can access that URL in a browser and that there's files there. Only other idea I have is try disabling windows firewall and/or antivirus.
Joseph Parker
>Check that you can access that URL in a browser Works fine
>Only other idea I have is try disabling windows firewall and/or antivirus I'm on GNU/Autism The thing is though, the shader updater, database, assets etc all work fine.

He has a very valid complain why bother wasting all work if isn't going to be merged,reminds me of that guy from previous emugen threads that fixed some Dolphin wagglan issue that the dev team said it was impossible to fix.
Angel Kelly
Give me the skinny guys, how good are 3DS and Wii U emulation really? Any good sources that I can keep up on? I see plenty of people memeing about how BotW is better on PC than wii u/switch but then I also hear people talking about how you have to use jank speedhacks + physics arent accurate. I'm also curious about Smash 4 (both systems) and Pokemon Sun & Moon (if they run well maybe I'll just play ultra moon on emulator)
Parker James
>Youtube "your PC specs" + "emulator" >sort by upload date.

Pretty sure that isn't how it's supposed to be.
Apart from that it's all smooth sailing. Better than expected.
Ethan Butler
It's called "RPCS3". I'm having a Deja Vu now. And I also had it yesterday. And the day before that. And practically the entire past week. Seriously fuck you, you fucking retard. You already know fucking perfectly the fucking answer, so stop fucking asking the exact same shit over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

How can I bind right stick to right dpad in the mednafen virtual boy core in a way that gives continuous input? (binding right stick to l2/r2/l3/r3 only gives one input per stick use)
Adrian Harris
When will PS2 receive the Dolphin treatment and get a emulator that isn't a shitty unstable piece of shit?
Cooper Jackson
When will Mednafen support convenient disc switching so I can finally play Monster Rancher 2 in an actually good emulator?
