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.
Dw, I already played this sad excuse of a remake long ago. I'm already going through it because I feel like having a savefile, forgot to backup the previous one back when I played it. Have a meme about it, straight from /vp/.
What's wrong with RetroArch? I just installed it and despite having a plug-and-play config for an Xbox One controller (and a binding listing for it), I can't use it at all. I can't rebind any buttons and nothing works.
The rest of Windows and Steam games all recognize my controller though. Any fixes?

Today I heard the name BizHawk for the first time. Is it worth checking out? What platform is it strongest with? Is it a good or even first choice for any systems at all?
Thanks
Thomas Hernandez
it's what retroarch wishes it could be
Justin Ramirez
So, does anyone know how to make RetroArch Nightly recognize the shared_font.bin file? I tried putting it in RA's system folder, didn't work. I tried to make a folder called "sysdata" inside the system folder and I dropped the file inside of it, didn't work.
At least I was able to fix the constant crashes I was getting whenever I tried to run games on it, I simply had to download the redist folder and put its bunch of .dll files inside RA's folder.

I'm still waiting on Drakengard 3 since it seems like it could easily outperform the PS3 version, I dropped a playthrough at 75% completion because I couldn't take the fucking slowdowns
Imagine RA with a WIMP GUI and gayer tools you're never ever gonna touch, that's bizhawk
Is the farseer version still the best to play Persona or the new build is faster?
Wyatt Lopez
Fucking finally found it out. I just had to put it in C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Citra\sysdata
Why THE FUCK. do they make every single of their cores' bioses and such work with RA's System folder but decide to make this an exception? Why THE FUCK do they not say this FUCKING ANYWHERE? Seriously, fuck that, fuck them and fuck every single one of you fucking bastards who decided not to help at all I hope you all remember me when you decide to end your pitiful existences
Adrian Ross
That is the same folder standalone citra uses If you weren't a braindead retroshit user you wouldn't have a problem finding it Consider suicide
Aaron Thomas
user I would have helped if I had known the answer myself, although looking at it maybe what you needed to drop in the RA system folder wasn't just sysdata but actually Citra/sysdata/shared_font.bin and the fact that it loads from the same place as standalone is an unexpected side effect. You can probably go yell at the guy making the libretro port if that's not the case, like you said it doesn't make any sense otherwise.
Aiden Reyes
Quick question, is 1964 only good for GE and Perfect Dark? The wiki doesn't recommend this emulator for much.
Standalone Citra? That old af build that nobody uses because having all the required folders along the executable file, just like literally every other branch of the emulator do, is miles better? Fucking end your existence, you fucking bastard.
As I said up there, I tried both ways. Putting the file directly inside system and putting it inside a folder called sysdata which I dropped inside the system folder. None of those 2 ways worked even though one of them should have.
Benjamin Perry
>None of those 2 ways worked even though one of them should have. You tried >/system/shared_fonts;bin and >system/sysdata/shared_fonts;bin I'm telling you that it might just have been >/system/Citra/sysdata/shared_fonts;bin Because I find it retarded that you would have to use the standalone folders.
Christian Bennett
>>/system/Citra/sysdata/shared_fonts;bin Alright, I see you now. It still doesn't work, so yeah, these guys are freaking stupid.

I have an xbox redump collection. No worries its preserved. Just not accessible to this shithole.
Isaac Allen
>Quick question, is 1964 only good for GE and Perfect Dark? It's a pretty good emulator (relatively speaking, compared to the other n64 emulators). It's just that PJ64 has better compatibility. There's also the fact that some plugin devs favored pj64 and haven't bothered fixing issues for other emulators, so that's also a problem.
>1964 is good for nothing, use PJ64 Not entirely true. Rat Attack works better on 1964 for instance.
dope! good to see that someone optimized that plugin!
Ian Lopez
So is Virtual Jaguar known to be garbage here? im a newfag just here to ask why it never remembers controllers that were mapped
Does anyone have a version of psx2psp that converts CUE files? I'm trying to convert a Japanese ps1 game into an EBOOT as I can't find a premade one online but it seems psx2psp doesn't allow CUE files.
Why do pinball games run so great in Amiga emulators yet looks like screen-tearing jittery hell in dosbox. Fricken DOSBOX SVM DAUM doesn't even let you use both shift buttons at the same time. Even the GOG releases of pinball dreams look and play pretty badly. I feel like there's some sort of ideal cfg files for getting pinball games to run just right, but lord knows it's nothing I've managed to figure out.
Still no good way to play Killer Instinct or Paper Mario

I want to play Silent Hill 2 pristinely. Is PCSX2 good enough, or do I wait for another few years? (From what I hear, the Director's Cut is pretty shit.)
I completed paper mario on pj64. Besides some visual bugs, what else is wrong with it?
Cameron Cruz

>(From what I hear, the Director's Cut is pretty shit.)
PS2, Xbox, PS2: Director's Cut are fine. PS2 DC has the Xbox extra content on PS2. The PC version is a bit buggy, and hard to run, and has some minor graphical downgrades but is fine.
You mean the PS3/360 versions which are ugly messes.
>I want to play Silent Hill 2 pristinely. Is PCSX2 good enough,
Yeah. But it was one of the early games with pressure sensitive controls for light vs. hard attacks. No clue how to work that out. I'd suggest running the PC version. I played that with just keyboard commands years ago just fine. It was the first time I played the second prelude scenario so it was new but also a blast of nostalgia.
Caleb Russell
you need to use the light attack sometimes because you can make it through the whole game bitchslapping everything to death.
Carson Young
>pressure sensitive controls for light vs. hard attacks. No clue how to work that out In pcsx2 you can rebind buttons that use pressure sensitivity to the triggers if you are using a 360 controller or something similar. That's what I did in the ace combat games with the thruster controls
James Gray
that sounds pretty complicated user. Did you win at the game? My thought is that i could map the face buttons to the volume of my voice and I could just scream real loud if I wanted the hard punch.
So developers are not allowed to have non-emulation pursuits?
James Williams
In my case I just swapped the L1/R1 and L2/R2 buttons on my 360 controller which wasn't complicated at all, but I haven't played silent hill so I wouldn't know what combination would work in that game
Thomas Kelly
Doesn't stand a chance.

Both of those emulators also get hate for their UI's. Nice try pham

fixed
Christian Reyes
not him, but that should be the default
Juan Brown
>Pressure sensitive controls What the actual fuck are you on about? The attacks are not pressure sensitive. Tap X for a quick strike, hold X for heavy strike. It's not pressure sensitive, it's how long you hold the button, dipshit.

Is there any benefit to using Vulkan for SNES games in RetroArch?

Then step away from the computer before you hurt yourself.

Emulation isn't for you. Go buy it full price off the PSN store or something like a good goy.
Angel Roberts
please :(

I want to play PS2 games on my galaxy s5 (specifically Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2)
Is this possible? Or is my ancient phone too weak / emulation sucks right now
Logan Myers
>Or is my ancient phone too weak yup
Ian Gray
The Play Store's game selection is rather shit, any suggestions of good ROMs to download? GBA/DS preferable and I've played most of the main Pokemon games more than I should have.
Caleb Gonzalez
Most phones nowadays can run Dolphin at full speed.

the cue file is just a text document that contains metadata, you need a .bin file to.
Most of the times you can use poweriso or w/e to convert bin/cue into iso

What are some good PS2 emulators on Android? emu wiki gave me nothing
But The Typing of The Dead Overkill is better and runs natively on PC.
