Does anyone with technical knowledge know how the future of 3DS emulation looks?

I see games seem to run at a shit framerate. How long do emulators typically take to get from working to amazing? I remember Dolphin Wii support coming out really fast but I also have been told the Wii is basically a gamecube anyway

>>162973830
Dolphin was like 7 years old when it got wii support

>>162973925
What I meant was, once Wii support was released most games were playable really fast.

So how does mame updates work? I see mame get updated but more games arent supported like KOF 11 or MVC2

what the FUCK!!! is vulkan

>>162973830
Where we are right now with 3DS emulation is like where we were in 2010 with DS emulation. The system has been cracked open; now all that's left is figuring out how to use it.

Do you have to use an older version of demul to use higher internal resolution? In the latest version, any plugin other than the main dx11 one (I.E. the one that doesn't let you change IR) causes either the video menu to crash the emulator, or the emulator to crash on start

- The biggest change is getting the interface sane, which is accomplished through libretro.
- 'inline' was added all across the PPU subclasses. Framerate went up by 20% from such a trivial change! (Spamming inline elsewhere does little if anything, so it wasn't done.)
- A fast path was added to various parts of the CPU bus, improving framerate by about 2.5%.
- libco has been changed quite a bit, both for performance, readability, and portability to more platforms.
- A seven-line function in sfc/memory/memory-inline.hpp was replaced, which speeds up ROM load by roughly a factor 6 (1.2s -> 0.2s).
- A section in sfc/memory/memory.cpp was specialized for the common, easy, case. This speeds up ROM load time by about a third.

built on hacks.

Like the problems SP doesn't experience with reicast, since he was on Intel/AMD but Nvidia users had issues with. Nvidia's drivers are built on all sorts of hacks.

Take for instance:
(vec3 += float)
On Nvidia hw, that is allowed and for some weird reason will only increment the first component of the vector, for some retarded reason.

On AMD, that is rejected since vec3s can only have binary operators done on like vectors, such as vec3s. Multiplication of vectors is a special case though in GLSL.

Retroarch is ignoring my File Browser directory. When I choose "Load Content", I just get the default menu. What gives?

>>163023132
Thanks for the great response. Looks like N64 isn't the only scene where shoddy work gets praised and reused with hardly anyone bothering to improve the code themselves.

I'd much rather write my own emu in that case, if I was more interested in SNES. I thought bsnes was poorly written, but honestly your description makes it sound worse than I anticipated. I think it's ironic that 'NIH' is frowned upon in this scene, but I think it's necessary.

>>163024075
But shouldn't hacks decrease compatibility?

>>163024258

No such thing. There is a "Content Database" directory.

>>163024540
what i meant was, nvidia drivers have a large amount of hacks and sometimes those hacks are used for improved compatibility. Take a look at "Game Ready" drivers. Those are just drivers which hotpatch shader code in the driver at runtime with handmade equivalents that the Nvidia driver devs made at the behest of game companies.

Plus as I said, sometimes the shader compilers allow things they shouldnt, but they do for the sake of compatibility of code (but they could hurt compatibility with other vendors. I found out that out when coding my stuff and had to use AMD shader tools to debug my shaders since they are more standards compliant than Nvidias and I know if a shader works on AMD, they will work on Nvidia.)

Graphics card drivers are really shitty pieces of software.

PlayStation DualShock[edit]
The DualShock 3 has a very good d-pad, which is something that's hard to find nowadays. Very useful for older consoles. It also has 10-bit precision analog sticks, pressure sensitive buttons, and it can be used wired or wirelessly with a Bluetooth adapter.
The Dual Shock 3 requires special software to work on a pc. In Windows, an external program needs to be installed to use DS3 controllers. Use the new SCP Driver Package. Do not use MotioninJoy if you can. On Linux, QtSixA is available, but if you run into problems try xboxdrv. See the DualShock 3#Troubleshooting page if you run into problems.
The DualShock 4 also requires a wrapper to get full functionality on Windows, like DS4Windows or SCP Driver Package.

So should I use bsnes mercury balanced instead of the regular core bsnes balanced? On which version are the two based off?
I use the regular bsnes balanced core and have occasionally framedrops in a very few games and manage 4-6 frames via frame delay.
In mednafen psx software I get 60fps, but only 58fps fps in a handfull of games with 0 frame delay setting, so I have to set on threaded video for a smoother experience that still has some drops. But I think this has to do with the newer core that has been added to the libretro stable ppa. It added hw render functionality, althought it is a separate core. Since this update I have framedrops in mednafen, before I could do 60fps without threaded video on.

>>163033723
why are you using bsnes core at all? It is shit and should only be used if snes9x fails. (it won't in 99.9% of use cases)

when you run Retroarch successfully they all have this system border for each console?

>>163057154
I think they made some strides with it over the past few years so you might try it. Back when I tried it 3 years or so ago it didn't work well due to a lot of graphical errors, but I've heard Rumors it's playable

I currently don't have a joystick for financial reasons.
What games are enjoyable with a keyboard/mouse? Any console, any genre.

And you missed the explanation of course.

Yeah, it had an LCD screen.

I run my games through an actual CRT, soI haven't tried any filters. But it does look really good on my CRT despite being unfaithful to the original.

Just try it out and see if it looks good if you're not going for 100% fidelity.

hahaha oh wow

Why the hell do devs do this shit?

>>163085576
Because they don't want you to be a dirty cheater?

Also it could be that the save is tied to the console ID for the same purpose, I know PS3 ties your save to your user account ID pretty much by default.

>>163085576
they don't. that would defy the interests of literally everyone.

The problem is it fucks over people who sell a game and rebuy it or whose console dies. It's fucking consumers.

>>163085798

>For all intents and purposes - it's a front end.
It's a frontend for the libretro api, not an "htpc frontend"(ie launchbox/emulationstation) designed around creating shortcuts for already installed games and emulators,

>>163111523
>frontend for the libretro api
so, this isn't a good way to describe ra. it may be technically accurate, but it's tomatoes in a fruit-salad. it's better to refrer to it a modularized emulator, or multi-emulator.
RA supposedly is catering to a console crowd, being that it's cores are primarily consoles, the gui is designed for a gamepad etc...so, try explaining even what an API is to a console peasant and keep your drool-rag handy. The fact that you confused them in the first place should be the concern, but take note how they don't give a shit and will call it an emulator anyway.

>>163113652
>The fact that you confused them in the first place
But I didn't confuse shit, I saw some guy comparing launchbox to retroarch (because they're both frontends lolol) and I didn't feel like wasting my time explaining how retroarch and libretro work together so I just referred to libretro+retroarch as just retroarch

>>163111523

This is probably a retarded question but I can't find anything about it online.
When using VBA-M diagonal movement is weird, in that if I press up in any moment while pressing left (for example, it works in any direction) it keeps going diagonally indefinetly even when I release the button. This happens with every game, yet it's the only emulator that has this glitch for me.

It is safe to assume someone could use that code to port the real bsnes v0.73 (or classic/plus since they are just improved v0.73) to libretro with minimal effort.

I doubt anyone will do it.

Now I'm curious as to the significance of this exchange.

So, of course, this being 4chan, not another word will be mentioned about it.

>>163171029
What? there isn't any significance, despite what people believe No-Intro sets aren't perfect, they've contained multiple bad dumps in the past.

Go fuck yourself you autistic, rule-quoting, odious piece of spewed shit. You don't even help keep the goddamned thread alive, I'd wager.

Take your OCD ass elsewhere.

Rulefags shit up the thread worse than the supposed rulebreakers.

Just report and move on if you think it breaks the rules instead of incessantly complaining.

SHould I buy a PS2 or just settle for ps2 emulation?

Will Endrift save DS emulation?

Who knows? He's evidently quite proficient in ARM-based coding and processor knowledge, and for some weird reason has no trouble branching out into the Zilog-based Gameboy line. Combine that with lengthy unemployment and I'm not sure where it could end.

Me? I'm just happy he saved GBA emulation, however redundant his Gameboy forays are.

Maybe if the RA devs donate to him..

>>163181068
Don't you have anything better to do than rail against some anon posting innocous artwork? You might have a point if he were posting artwork of a single anime/cartoon character over and over but it's just fucking scenery...

>>163181601
What if I donate to him at the same time I donate to RA devs?

>>163181758
He's posting this 'art' by this 'Joakim Olofsson' fellow with every single post of his. It's completely unrelated to the thread and provides nothing. It's the definition of avatar faggotry.

>>163181891
Why does that bother you so much, exactly? Is it your autism?

>>163182030
Thank you for not posting one of those terrible drawings with your post, avatarfag.

No no, you don't understand! Right now his 'spergers are being rustled at hypersonic speeds!

So far as I know, furfags still claim a gender. Although he uses the tumblr special snowflake term for it, once you get past all the convoluted bullshit designations and weird symbol he's basically saying "I am a male furfag." on his personal account.

Perhaps you were thinking of Saint Ryphecha?
