Redbook audio doesn't have metadata, does it? It's just WMP trying to match it, right?

>>180074176
Yeah just WMP trying to match it but it's surprisingly good at doing it with a few exceptions., even works with other CD console apparently. (tried Air Combat, Tobal, Bastugun, Panzer Dragoon, DOOM and they all got properly detected, even Xi sai the JP version of Devil Dice is detected correctly)

I was gonna ask about what to do to get Sky Crawlers to run properly on Dolphin. But it seems the Ishiiruka Dolphin finally has it running properly except for some odd slowdowns in battle. But compared to dropping to half speed and fucked up sound whenever looking at the ground it's brilliant.

So, thanks for the link to that wiki.

It really is confusing how people can setup an email account to sign up for a forum to ask a question on emulation,and then give up when the answer isnt right in their face.

Hello. Using Visual Boy Advance to play Pokémon Yellow but having an issue. Holding down space causes the game speed to increase to 5000% which is way too fast. I've had a look around the options but I've only found a way to change the base games speed or to make the space bar a toggle. Is there anyway I can change the speed of the space bar to say 200% instead of 5000%

The correct answer is bgb.

Go into the options, joypad tab, and configure the controls. Then check 'configure extra buttons' and set the fast forward to whatever you want. Press skip for ones you don't care about changing. Then go into the misc tab and set 'Undelayed speed' to the multiplier you want fast forward to run at(defaults to 10x).

>>180110842
So there isn't a way to change the boost speed? Changing Throttle only changes the default speed

>Pokemon emulates fine if you have the specs.
What sort of specs are we talking here? The 3DS isn't exactly a powerful machine, I don't see how emulating it could be taxing on any sort of computer made in the past 5 years.

>>180100010
Most emulator devs don't default to a natural zeromus-style self sabotage state when enough stupid "tech support" questions come. Weird, I know.

>>180130668
Emulating things isn't as easy as dumping a game and adding .exe to the end of it. It takes a lot of fine tuning to get it to run right.

>>180130668
Saturn isn't a powerful machine either, but this don't stop precise emulation of the system being a performance whore. 3.5 GHz for Omega Red/Alpha Sapphire is enough for 100% speed on most cases, Sun/Moon has real problems with more geometry being rendered at the same time, so I would not care for "good specs" so soon.

Does retro arch not write out saves with the bsnes core until you close the application properly? The reason I ask is because I had Final Fantasy VI Brave New World open all day long, I would play it then just alt tab out and shitpost on 4chan or whatever and come back to it. Then I had a power outage. Even though I was saving in game, when I loaded it back up it didn't have my progress. Only thing I can think of is that retro arch stores it all in memory until you close out then writes it to disk. Is there some option that I am missing that will update the actual save files for the ROM periodically?

>>180132723

Settings > Saving > SaveRAM Autosave Interval

>>180132723
settings > saving > saveram autosave interval

>>180132723
RA will not save if it doesnt close correctly

in RA under saving is the Save Ram interval

change this to the lowest you can, I set mine to 1 second in notepad, which means ever second, it keeps the save

>>180132873
>>180132924
>>180132952
Thanks bros. Sorry for being retarded.

>>180133036
nah it's not retarded, it's kinda dumb that it's in RA anyways

something about some very select games save every frame and it lowers performance or something

>>180132952
>>180133131
The N64 Mystery Dungeon game saves every time you move I think, that's the game that always gets brought up as an example. Anyway I'd set it to a more reasonable value, writing to disk every second is unnecessary.

>>180132952
You don't have to edit the config file to set it to 1 second anymore

>>180133131
The only thing dumb about it is that it's not enabled by default. It would be better with a 30 or 60 second interval as a default but they don't want it on by default at all.

>>180133390
The only reason why I personally set it to every second is because I play using bluetooth as audio

When (on xaudio I believe) my bluetooth earphones would disconnect, RA would crash every time and I could replicate it easily

I'm not sure if this is fixed since I submitted the ticket but I lost progress in super metroid like 3 times before I figured it out

What file type does Mednafen use? The ISO I downloaded contained a .7z file (which contained a .ecm file), and a .cue file, but I'm not really sure how to start the game.

>>180192039
cue + bin

>>180192039
To unpack .ecm files you need this: https://www.emuparadise.me/Sony_Playstation_ISOs/ecm_tools/36839

Drop it inside "unecm.exe" and wait until it's done.

Meh, it's more comfy to just download a full set and extract the games I want to play rather than downloading all games individually.

Where can I get a x360 controller "emulator" so I can use this generic dualshock controller and be recognized as a 360 one? ds4windows only works for official controllers, scptoolkit is abandoned and you can't add your own controllers to it for some fucking reason and x360ce makes the sticks behave retardely either being 100% to one side or 0%

>>180204587
Have you considered buying a 360 controller? New ones are only like $25.

>>180202970
Well yeah, the full sets should be archived somewhere, but it's not really necessary for every user to have a copy of the entire full sets if they only play a select few games from that set.

It's not perfect and kinda shit to configure the first time around but it does the job better than x360ce.

Hello /emugen/,
first time poster up in here. Can we talk about frontends for a bit?

I wanted to set up EmulationStation for my collection and I was successful with it.

Problem is, my collection is way too big and performance shit the bed hard. It keeps running on shut down forever because it rewrites all the xml-files to keep stats like 'times played', and 'last played' up to date.

What the hell? I don't even give a shit about that! They fixed that with a switch in the retropie release but I'm on Windows 7 here and that version is from like 2015 or something.

It also just sits at about 25-30 % CPU load while looking at the GUI itself idling. Everything is fine while while playing games though.

Yeah, anyway... I'm in need of another, better frontend because I like the concept. Again, I'm Windows 7 and my collection is LARGE.

Any ideas? Launchbox maybe? Bit of a shame really, EmulationStation is so simple and clean looking.

>>180208579
Could you repeat that without the reddit spacing? It's unreadable.

>>180206141
>xoutput
I have no clue how to configure this, it just says Button 1, Button 2 etc but I have no idea which button that refers to, not to mention the axis

>>180209381
Configure blindly and adjust using the gamepad control panel, you really only need to do that once so it's really not that bad.

>>180209187
So in other words, you know exactly shit about nothing. Got it.

Don't get ahead of yourself, little faggot. I'm a first time when it comes to /emugen/, nothing more.

>>180209843
Not than anon, but he's right, you type like an idiot and that alone is reason to not help you.

>>180209187
>reddit spacing

Is this a new meme?

>>180209998
Do I sound like I need your help? My setup works well enough. Came here because of a minor annoyance and wanted to talk about frontends.

You give me shit about the way I type? Please, you specifically are probably too stupid to set up any front end at all no matter the OS.

>>180208579
check out hyperspin, retroFE and yeah launchbox

>>180210104
Using the same text formatting that allows you to break line in reddit ends up with you doublespacing in most other places (or so I've been told), which makes you look like a grade schooler.

Not that guy, but if I installed the SCP toolkit and was the monitor or whateverw as able to rumble my controller, is that a problem with PCSX2 or my installation, and is that something that could be fixed by moving to a different emulator?

>>180227171
Being able to run 10+ year old games

>>180228421
Then you should probably read up on what emulation is before you ask more dumb questions

>>180228368
Here's a rule of thumb when it comes to PCSX2. If you ask " is the problem with my setup or the emulator", the answer is "with the emulator."

>>180228368
A SCP issue, my PS3 controller works with PCSX2 rumble but it doesn't with Project 64 Xinput plugin.
Not even raw dinput rumble works, which point to a driver issue.

>>180228421
Learn what is emulation first, you clearly don't know shit

>>180228631
With this I can agree, PCSX2 is the most sad joke in the emulation scene

PCSX2 that bad, huh?
>>180229096
So what am I supposed to do to fix it? I was following the directions to install the SCP toolkit and I can't figure out where exactly I'm doing wrong. http://emulation-general.wikia.com/wiki/PCSX2
Am I retarded or is the documentation just awful?

>>180229469
>PCSX2 that bad, huh?
It's worse. If the wiki was up you could see and laugh with me, the volume of problems is ridiculous

>>180229469
go bug that pony freak in charge of scp.
last year something similar happened and builds that fixed rumble were uploaded somewhere.

Wtf, God of War 2 is that CPU intensive on PCSX2? my Core i5 4460 3.2Ghz(that has a STR of 2019, that is pretty good from the base score of 1946) is lagging HARD on it on software mode, and because my 'gpu' is a Intel HD 4600 at the moment, on Hardware mode still runs terrible because of the gpu, and i'm forced to use Agressive CRC Hack and still has some slowdowns.
What i'm doing wrong?

>>180231672
>What i'm doing wrong?
You're using PCSX2. Also, you're using software mode with a clock of 3.2 GHz...

>>180232032
What other PS2 emulators are there

>>180232032
Clock Speed? I was thinking that the SingleThreadRating was the way to measure performance...., but another thing, the CPU use don't surpass the 80% on software mode with 3 threads...

>>180232132
Play! and HPS2x64, both not really suitable for playing anything right now. But it's nice to see users like you still banging your head while trying to use PCSX2, this just shows how shit the project is. This being said, maybe there is some solution on the wiki... that is offline (because they can't even keep a simple site up, figures...), use this backup page http://web.archive.org/web/20170213011033/http://wiki.pcsx2.net/index.php/Main_Page

Still on the topic, anyone got to run Rogue Squadron 3 on Dolphin? that thing is REALLY fucking demanding, i can run any other demanding title(Rogue Squadron 2, F Zero GX, Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, Xenoblade Chronicles, Metroid Prime) but this one maxs 40fps with luck. CPU:Core i5 4460 3.2Ghz, intel HD 4600, yeah i'm the same guy from the posts above. tested on Dolphin 5.0 and Ishiiruka

>>180233198
What config you're using for Ishiiruka? Is "Full Async Shader Compilation" enabled?

Hey /emugen/, I was wondering if you guys have any experience with using a DualShock4 for emulation and whether or not it 's a good option.
I've been considering buying one mainly for PS2 and PSP games, is it a good choice? Does it work well on PCSX2 and PPSSPP? Are there any issues with setting it up?

I'm not fussed about using a cable, any advice you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated.

>>180233857
Also wondering if you guys have any experience with using a DualShock3 for PS2 and PSP emulation, thanks.

>>180233857
No issues here. Use DS4Windows and it emulates a X360 controller which works with anything released in the past 10 years.

Why does Desmume stutter so fucking badly? I'm not talking about drops in FPS but literal stuttering, dropped frames up the ass. Vsync does nothing.

It doesn't happen on Retroarch, but the audio for the Dragon Quest games are fucking broken on that.

>>180235734
what are your PC spec.

>>180236134
Core i7 6700k, GTX 970.

Like I said I'm not dropping from 60 fps. I can run this shit on 500fps if I want. The issue is with all the stuttering I'm getting. It's hard to explain, but it's like frameskipping, the scrolling is just not smooth at all.

If I disable multicore and run Desmume in only one core it helps quite a bit but it still stutters.

>>180236274
Desmume has no audio/video sync like Retroarch does. It only has Vsync which prevents tearing. It's shit and you'll always get jittering/stuttering.

>>180236274
What game is giving you more problems? I know it's too soon, but have you triead Medusa or melonDS? Sound emulation on both is far better than on DeSmuME if you can run the game at a good speed.

>>180231672
>tfw i7 4790k @ 4.4ghz OC and a GTX 970
I'm running GoW2 with no issues, I'm pretty sure it's just your processor isn't gonna cut it, sucks I know.
>mfw 4790k is one of the best CPUs for single-thread performance on the market

>>180236561
>Medusa
>melonDS

Holy shit what. I've been away from the scene. Which one's better?

>>180236779
Try both, but in my tests melonDS performed better, while Medusa seems more "robust" as it's a side project of the mGBA dev, shaping up to the some kind of GameBoy emulation suite

>>180236961
Tried out and DQ4 sucks in both.

Oh well.

I did find an old ass build of the Desmume core that doesn't have sounds issues on Retroarch, but it doesn't have high-res, not even a screen divider option.

Too bad SquarePusher doesn't give a single fuck.

>>180237826
I can bet on this "new wave" of DS emulators to kick Desmume out in some months. But for now, yeah, we use what we have (unless what we have is PCSX2, then we don't have nothing at all)

Hey guys, got a quick question - I started up mGBA today to continue my playthrough of MMBN4 Red Sun, and its gone retarded - game is going at 600 fps instead of the usual 60 fps. Any idea what is going on and/or how to stop it? The issue persists into other games as well.

anyone know a way to get drastic to work for free?

>>180227272
Anyone recognize that cart?

I feel like it would be hard to come up with a Game Boy game that's easy enough for little kids while also being immediately engaging.

>>180236779
medusa is a meme. melonds is better in every way. It even emulates local wifi(ds to ds, like download play, pictochat, and such). staplebutter does many hardware tests to try and accurately emulate the DS.

>>180239735

For late 90s/early 00s arcade games, is it better to emulate the console ports for Dreamcast, or use MAME?

>>180270451
What's so bad about Go?

>>180272327
Depends on the hardware the game was on.

>>180272728
Did most Capcom 2D fighters (JoJo, Marvel, Third Strike, etc.) use the same hardware?

>>180259557
yeah - https://github.com/disks86/VK9

Jojo and Third Strike ran on CPS3 (better in MAME/FBA)
Marvel vs Capcom 1 ran on CPS2 (doesn't really matter but MAME/FBA perform better)
Marvel vs Capcom 2 ran on Naomi (better on whatever DC emu you use)

>>180273254
Would a good rule of thumb be to just emulate anything Naomi on Dreamcast?

>>180273413
Yes, the Naomi uses Dreamcast hardware so the ports should be 99.9% on the spot.

I want to emulate some F-Zero GX

I tried that like two years ago but it lagged on the 50 FPS mark, making it unplayable for me.

I heard that was a general problem with F-Zero. Does it work better now?
I also got a better PC, might it work out and run smoothly now?

>>180273795
You won't know until you try it! :P

>>180273795

F-Zero GX is one of the most demanding Gamecube since it actually runs at a steady 60fps framerate.

You can try the PAL version and run the game 50hz if your PC can't handle it otherwise.

>>180273620

Just started to get into Dolphin. I have a pretty high-end PC, so I'm not worried about resolution or anything.

What's the best graphics renderer? OpenGL, DX11 or DX12?

What was the first cycle accurate emulator?

I am trying to emulate Monster Hunter FU from Emusparadise, buit when I extract the files to a folder, the actually files inside arent decompressed, so I can't play anything. And winrar won't do anything about them. wtff. This is so annoying. Something like this has never happened.

>>180288047
History.
It emulated humans in a cycle accurate manner to behave like animals.

>>180287832
Make sure you're using Ishiiruka Dolphin unless you love stuttering games.

>>180288047
Probably something stuck in some other obsolete product like a graphing calculator.

>>180288921
This means trans are HLE?

Is it possible to use a PS3 controller as a Wiimote in Dolphin without Motioninjoy? My driver spoofs the PS3 controller to be recognized as a 360 controller and I think that's why the sixaxis isn't being recognized.

>>180292157
Alternatively, does the mouse/keyboard as a wiimote work well?

Does tranny on girl porn even exist? It's always the tranny getting fucked by a guy.

>>180299885

>>180300598
Actually, yeah. There is.
I've seen some on /gif/.

>>180299646
it's my first time using mame for arcade games m8

got a list of old arcade games to look into?

>>180305424
>got a list

Nothing short enough to post here. Just lurk in /vr/, and look up online info on the genres that interest you and play the more prominent games. Hardcore gaming 101 has a lot of nice reviews of older games, many of them for arcade.

Is there any way to have different controller profiles with DeSmuME? [like you can with Dolphin for instance] Or is there a DS emulator that can?

Also is DeSmuME still the best DS emulator out there?

Would anyone be willing to share the system archive and shared font files for Citra, I want to play Bravely Second, but they're required for it to run.

>>180069671
RPCS3 is slowly making progress.

Type "shared_font.bin" on Google", first result. You're lazy as fuck anon...

>>180312642
Have you tested this build yet? I'm afraid that the performance was untouched by this update, and this visual glitch they fixed never showed up on my end

>>180312390
>Is there any way to have different controller profiles with DeSmuME?
Use separate desmume.ini files.

>Also is DeSmuME still the best DS emulator out there?
Yes, and it will be for quite a while. Neither memedusa or melonds are going to be getting jits or hardware renderers any time soon.

>>180312945
Let me reiterate, I need the system files for citra, like the whole system files, I have the shared fonts, but apparently that's not enough for some games. Like Bravely second is asking for Mii data, some other games ask for different types of data.
