READ THE WIKI BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS LIKE: >Where do I get games OR >What is the best emulator for...
Check out the wiki for the emulator you're using if you run into trouble, there may be a solution there too, often including recommendations for optimal game settings.
Fun fact: The CPU used in the PSX was also used in the New Horizons space probe.
Daniel Morales
I need a handheld that will be powerful enough to emulate PSP, PSX games and also DS games.
What are my options? What would you recommend?
Jaxson Bailey
No it wasn't. If you took the same CPU and used it in space it'd die from radiation. It was a radiation hardened version of the R3000 at a much lower clockspeed.
Brandon Carter
I'm trying to use the 3do/jaguar Phoenix emulator but can't find a way to play in full screen without distorting the pixels. There doesn't seem any option to integer scale or have some sort of pixel pre scaling with the linear filter like in MAME. It's pretty much either raw unfiltered pixels that look terrible or linear filtered which also look terrible but uniform. There is some shader setting you can select but it doesn't seem to change much. I also tried adjust the renderer mode to the experimental one and played with the sliders to no great effect. This would be a good emulator if I could just get it to display properly.
Ayden Jackson
I thought I still had Daemon Tools Lite on my computer years ago, but apparently I don't.
Went to see a new version and it's loaded to the brim with malware.
I need a program like DTL so I can play Dragon Force II. Couldn't find any recommendations on the FAQ in the wiki.
Is putting emulators and games on a retropi easy with Ubuntu?
I hate using Ubuntu when I'm actually trying to get things to work.
Can I fuck up my pi or can I just start over put a new OS on it so I don't brick it?
Carson Barnes
Just use Mednafen.
Austin Torres

Why would you even use a OS you hate for getting shit done? >Can I fuck up my pi or can I just start over put a new OS on it so I don't brick it? Dude you're really dumb.

>Phoenix emulator Literally Russian malware.
Wyatt Wright
Did he collude with the Russians?
Send Mueller on him.
Nathan Williams
Don't bully me.
I don't have windows rn and I know I'm not the brightest but I try the hardest.
Julian Rodriguez
PS4 emulator when.
Anthony Jones
But there's a PC version coming out in a few months.
Jordan Price
Alright man, it should be fairly easy but since I've never used retropie I can't tell for sure, you might need to run some script to refresh the romlists and stuff, check the wiki
Adam Brown
MonHun World will come out on PC so idk why would you want to emulate it. That aside: github.com/AlexAltea/orbital
Tyler Collins
redpill me on amiga
Adrian Morris
fsuae
Camden Brown
vita emulator NOW
Chase Harris
That elf is a bit strange but it seems healthy enough, keep at it.
>Our custom addon, the “Indie Retro Games Library” (IRGL), gives users easy access to the thousands of ROMS available from the Internet Archive, launching the appropriate emulator (mostly in RetroArch) after the ROM has been downloaded.
hey let's ship a chinese kodi shitbox that openly uses retroarch for high piracy, top kek
Joseph Collins
Nigga we dont even have 3.60+ access on vanilla. Emulator neverever to 2050
Thomas Mitchell
>our SYNC consoles and portable devices ship to customers free of any “cores” Ha, they did what SP and hunterk wanted to do.
Michael Cooper
Question
Resident Evil 3 never got a proper PC release but apparently it got some sourcenext versions
Anyone knows where i can find them? I already tried but i couldn't
Jonathan Cruz
This isn't the right way to go about running PS4 games on PC, imo. It'd be better to HLE all the system calls instead of LLE'ing the whole thing.
Jayden Flores
So does XCX run without audio/texture issues anymore on CEMU 1.11.4?
I guess I'll get to know tomorrow when the poorfag-nonretard version releases.
Jackson Ward
pls respond
John Turner
It's literally on Piratebay.
Also, not emulation
Carson Peterson
The author said it is also intended to help making further exploits on the actual console too.
Asher Hall
I agree, seems more like a tool to study and learn about the original hardware than anything, what is cool anyway, all information could be used for emulators 100% aimed at just playing games
Christopher King
alright lads i am going fucking crazy trying to configure my pcsx2 settings. native resolution, games stay at 60 fps except every 15 or so seconds the performance dips from 100% to around 85% which causes a slowdown then goes back to normal
EE during normal stays at 35% and GS at 15%, during slowdown both of them dip about 7% each. CPU/GPU temps are at 50C so it's not that. I know my CPU isn't great but if it was getting bottlenecked wouldn't those percentages be much higher?
Josiah Wilson
What build? What plugin? What plugin settings? What is your hardware? What game you're trying to emulate?
Jose Thomas
The PS4 is not even fully hacked yet, yes you can pirate games on 4.05, but nothing too fancy like messing deeply with the system's drivers/settings or homebrews using hardware acceleration. It would be a work in the dark trying an HLE approach at this point.
Zachary Gutierrez
That's why I've said this is cool as tool to get more info for now (even if reach the point of running commercial games, would be not fast enough). This year started like gold for emulation
Daniel King
>1.4.0 >GSdx 1.0.0 // spu2-x 2.0.0. Using my GTX1070 as Renderer with 3D11 HW. For audio, interpolation at 1 and rest default (no change to latency) >speedhacks enabled, EE cycle at 1, VU cycle at 0, MTVU enabled to try and test things, only non default EE/VU settings have been to change clamping from normal to none >1070, i7-7700HQ nothing OC'd all temps are normal >Only tested couple of games but happens in all, Persona 3/Yakuza 1 & 2
I probably left out a few important details, woops. Only thing that bugs me is that I've run pcsx2 emulation in the past on a worse set-up and never had this issue and the games never had a single glaring slowdown issue
Thomas Davis
alright i have fixed the problem
looks my HDD is slightly faulty? switched everything over to SSD and it's staying at 60 fps without any drops, god bless
Isaac Long
How could I download a torrent of all the games at the library?
I'll check it out famalam..I don't even have the roms yet..is there a torrent of them somewhere of every snes and Sega game somewhere?
Tpb? Maybe..
Camden White
do a groogle search for "download romz torrent" start clicking buttons and one of them will work.
Benjamin Stewart
...
Aaron Carter
blake griffin is going to be such a joy to watch
Gabriel Baker
um use a flash drive and plug it in?
Jaxon Wood
I could actually do that.. But Ubuntu should work at that point tbqh
I don't think you actually need windows for anything. I just hate Ubuntu sometimes because I couldn't even get my Xbox controller to work on it.
Bentley Perry
By adding an Internet Archive ROM downloader to the box, you can be assured the ESA will come knocking at your doors very soon.
It is the stupidest thing one could imagine.
And something Libretro itself would never do, because it's borderline stupid and it is direct facilitation of copyright infringement.
Only a struggling musician comes up with garbage like this.
Tyler Collins
Do certain emulators (systems) handle online play better than others? I remember playing some SNES games online with a guy about a decade ago, but the Genesis stuff at the time didn't go too well.
Kevin Watson
>esa has teeth they sure have been going after all these boxes lately. >direct facilitation of copyright infringement interacting with a public repository sanctioned by u.s law is stupid? btw, libretro could easily just have the ability to download "content" from the net and allow 3rd parties to supply a directory structure file listing content if they wanted to keep their hands clean but who am i to complain? >struggling musician fucking obnoxious
Jordan Phillips
> they sure have been going after all these boxes lately.
>interacting with a public repository sanctioned by u.s law is stupid?
you want every game publisher/developer to start setting its sights on taking down all those archives just to let some fuckwad musician get some moniez?
shutting down all those romsites wasn't already bad enough for you?
Luke Rivera
There's a lot of symbols in early kernel versions, aren't there? That must greatly help RE work.
Cameron King
that is someone selling a machine with preloaded content, which is not much different than including IARL, but it is decidedly not the same. It's the difference between selling parts for a weapon and a prebuilt and loaded weapon. >you want every game publisher/developer to start setting its sights... coward. I don't give a fuck what greedy corporations do. If some site banking on copyright infringement goes down, so be it. The net used to be a place where you needed to have basic computer knowledge to aquire media. These days a fucking toddler can do it.
Camden Thomas
>a public repository sanctioned by u.s law lol no. The IA does not have any legal basis to freely distribute copyrighted roms. Their exemptions only allow them to privately break DRM for archival, not distribution. With all the attention these IA roms are going to get from boxes like this, it's all going to be taken down. Can't wait.
Connor Torres
> coward. I don't give a fuck what greedy corporations do. If some site banking on copyright infringement goes down, so be it.
hi romjacket. you are so easy to tell.
Isaiah Butler
>for archival, not distribution clean your crowbar, it's time to killyourself.
Adam Richardson
In a world where copyright basically lasts indefinitely, distribution is archival.
Joshua Lewis
>Only a struggling musician Remind us, SP, why you always go after someone's job, or check his private life?
Robert Brown
>I've been writing, recording, and performing music professionally since 2000, and have experience in a ton of other disciplines as well.
Wow, it says it right there on the page. Are you fucking stupid or something?
Gabriel Jones
But why, idiot? Why?
Jordan Bennett
>Wow it says right there it's like he's begging for it, right my guy? you can't give him an option of which question to answer. use small words and then a big one.
Charles Smith
Doesn't bother me when he does that to scumbags, but he's even done that to radius who definitely doesn't deserve it.
Eli Clark
Because that's what all the cool kids do these days, including Presidents who win elections.
Jackson Taylor
I've never heard anything good or bad about this radius person. Only that he's actually close to SP and libretro in general, both tolerating and calling shit out where it makes sense to, but never really publicly.
Adrian White
rumor has it that he sucks cocks
Henry Peterson
Should I get individual emulators or just get Retroarch for a Wii?
Logan Perez
so?
Jacob Lee
If you have no problems using RetroArch, then use that primarily. Snes9x-NEXT was practically made for the Wii. I'd still grab standalone emulators for backup. But if it works in RA then there's no need. But you know, why not play Wii games? That's sort of what the system is for. You even have to have a proper controller for it, so motionfagging games should be no issue.
Juan Green
...
Angel Adams
Thanks nigga Actually I'm getting a Wii to play GC games and Wii games of course, but emulation's a big plus so I just wanted to know which emulators to get
Anthony Sanchez
Please read this PSA about the NT mini:
>Yes, I wrote this piece because the Super Nt press intentionally neglects my own work. And on that note, here's the bottom line: The Super Nt is not more accurate than higan is. And if you claim otherwise ... then I say to you, prove it.
I have a thirteen year track record of fixing any and all issues reported in my SNES emulation within days of issues being reported. Find an issue in my emulation and it won't be an issue any longer. Chris hired some beta testers to evaluate the Super Nt's compatibility? That's nice. Individual releases of my emulator have been downloaded over a hundred thousand times each. I've had thirteen years of people reporting any observed issues in my emulation; and the current known issues list? Yeah, it's at zero.
But this truly isn't just about me: it's about the inevitability of seeing this claim repeated for more systems in the future if we don't set the record straight now.
That duplicate page hasn't been linked like anywhere on the wiki in ages. Where in the HELL do you people keep coming from?
Luke Morgan
Shithole factories in India and Bangladesh. They're paid by Nintendo to fish for rom sites to DMCA.
Eli Peterson
That wouldn't explain where it's still linked as being active at all.
Easton Gutierrez
>Why are shitskins incompetent?
A question for the ages.
Pajeet's boss tells him "go to this link and DMCA it" He goes there and finds nothing, then comes here to fish for more information.
Anthony Lopez
I think you completely misunderstood that guy's post
Bentley Morris
You probably don't know, but those "patches" are not what you think they're
Parker Walker
>not what you think they're
Hello, shitskin.
Samuel Reyes
I know exactly what he said. He asked where it's being linked, and I told him " on some shill's woefully out of date information sheet."
Joseph Adams
Tell me, what's your guess about them?
Nolan Scott
Again, it's irrelevant who is doing it. I want to know WHERE these people keep finding that link in particular. It hasn't been linked on the wiki itself for ages, every time anyone comes here they're practically always corrected, so it's not locals. And where did that person find it? Why would it take so long to check out, and why in the HELL would anyone come HERE over it?
Cameron Perry
>why do shills that are getting paid cents an hour and barely speak English have out of date information?
Another question for the ages.
Sebastian Reed
>why in the HELL would anyone come HERE over it? Derp. Current thread links to vg/catalog.
Hudson Robinson
I love my Ryzen 1600!
Caleb Carter
>too much of a dumb fucking nigger to ctrl+f rom on the main page You're too stupid for emulation.
Carter Lewis
How difficult is it to use the SN30 Pro with a raspberry pi running retropie? I'm assuming as long as I copy/paste the correct udev cfg, it should work?
Gabriel Cox
oh fuck you actually fell for the 8bitdo meme
Elijah Davis
um wtf? how much longer until archive pulls all their shit?
Wyatt Perry
I haven't bought it yet, dingus. Is it really not that good? I'm using a ds3 now.
Isaiah Sanchez
um wait a sec, there's no videos of this on youtube? Wouldn't this be massively popular?
Kevin Thompson
there's been a lot of activity on cxbx this year. is it going to be usable soon?
Christian Sanchez
>D3D8 WHAT
Y E A R E A R
Caleb Bailey
It's super good and not at all tiny and terrible with useless shoulder buttons and sticks that are not too close to the face buttons at all. Buy it. Buy it right now.
Eli Rogers
He's right. People think if you remake something in an FPGA it must be 100% accurate.
Alexander Perez
Are there any good alternatives to the Wii for emulation with component analog video output? I'd like to be able to emulate PSX on my CRT.
