/emugen/ - Emulation General

Is there a way to create/edit custom rdb files for use with custom playlists in RetroArch? I'd like to get some custom icons set up for playlists containing specific series rather than systems. Not to mention it's mostly translated roms and whatnot so the auto-playlist maker doesn't pick them up.

Kinda wish the playlist stuff was more robust because as it stands it's only really for nointro sets.

News:
The latest retroarch nightly has implemented netplay over most cores, including a netplay browser to find games. All you need is the same game and core as the other player (and maybe some open ports).

Still my favorite byuu post ever

Anyone gotten N64 working on netplay?
Me and my friend have SNES and PS1 working fine but N64 always instantly disconnects

was the XMB menu in RA finally fixed to scan for headers or something?

i remember PS1 games ending up in the Saturn menu because both used cue/bins

>>166424042
Anyone know where I can download a preconfigured frontend like emulationstation setup with all emulators and bios included for Windows PC. All that would have to be done is to add roms? The wiki has nices resources for roms but nothing of this nature.

>>166425978
Well emulationstation is a simple frontend to set up, but you'd still need to do a bit of work yourself.

Ok, I was hoping for preconfigured images, something like the configured builds available for Raspberry Pi but with the emulators available for PC like Dolphin.

>>166438467
You are one lucky son of a bitch. Pure envy.

>>166438896
Literally why

The only value in Yabause is its debugging capabilities.
It has been outclassed by both SSF and Mednafen

>>166439804
Also apparently actual Yabause development has been at a standstill and progress is being made in uoYabause which is different from Yabause.

OK, on the advice of someone here, I got a DS3 controller. It is now plugged into my Mac. It won't map in OpenEmu, and all it wants to do is blink its four red lights at me.

What is this Nipp sorcery?

>>166442323
No we clearly told you to get a ds2, DS4 or xbox360 wired controller.

>>166442820

Nah. XBox360 doesn't even work natively in OS X- it requires a special driver.

Same with DS2, only it requires a converter.

Actually, all the developers interested in improving Yabause (rather than turning it into a Patreon gravytrain) just quietly moved to uoYabause.

I gotta say it.
While the HD remaster is certainly more technically impressive with its new lighting engine, I still prefer the original with a texture pack and post-processing effects.
A game made around the cel-shading graphics style shouldn't selectively include soft shading. It just looks weird to me.

Dolphin was able to get a significant performance increase after porting to 64bit and further optimizing their JIT.

>>166445534

That's because I've been shitting up the thread for the past year or so in my free time (or when I'm bored).

It's fun to think some of the blatant lies and misinformation I've posted here as fact may have caused someone some genuine frustration and stress.

>>166477097
Dolphin has been working on their 64bit JIT since 2004
It took 12+ years of active development for it to catch up to 32bits.
Do the math yourself in case of PCSX2.

>>166478126
Not him but
http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Where-can-I-get-this-x64-build?page=2
It's getting somewhere at-least, they've worked on it a bit since 2014 just most of it is hidden from regular users because it's not quite ready but it's not that far from usability.


>>166477681
Fast forward™

What is better, N64 emulation on PC or N64 emulation through Dolphin (wads)?

>>166479382
Depends on the game, but for most stuff I think Dolphin+VC is the preferred method.

>>166478126
>It took 12+ years of active development for it to catch up to 32bits.
To be quite frank, I don't believe it took them 12+ years to catch up to 32bits. I'm pretty sure the emulator was closed source in 2004 iirc and different people worked on the emulator throughout the years. Even if it did, I don't think that's important because they are amateurs. Only reason I used them as an example is to show that x64 does have good potential for a performance gain.

Dolphin devs still haven't figured out that having a portable shader cache is a good idea. That's something I would have done early on.

This makes me think, how far we can go?

>>166476194
>Gameplay-wise I prefer the wii-u version though
I agree with you on this.
While emulating the Gamecube release with enhanced resolution and textures, in my opinion, looks superior to the Wii U re-release, the Wii U version added quite a lot of improvements to the base game in other areas.

If there was some way to completely remove the weird lighting issues and have it look more like an enhanced Gamecube version, it would be the definitive way to play the game for me.

Of course, since Cemu will never go open source and they're not going to research and add additional features for people unwilling to pay for it, the Gamecube version will always look better.

>>166480078
>Dolphin devs still haven't figured out that having a portable shader cache is a good idea. That's something I would have done early on.
The whole shader cache thing isn't something that was present until latter versions though, at-least that's how I recall it

>>166480164

>>166481294
Are any of the NES games reprogrammable like with TASBot at AGDQ to make them play snake or something? That'd be another layer.

>>166481729
Probably but I don't think many people have tried ACE of that level on NES.

>To be quite frank, I don't believe it took them 12+ years to catch up to 32bits. I'm pretty sure the emulator was closed source in 2004 iirc and different people worked on the emulator throughout the years

Dolphin was made by ector (hrydgard) and F|RES and they were the only people working on it until it went open source. hrydgard left the project after PPSSPP took off while the other guy was pretty much retired when the release happened. The x64 build was already announced back in 2006 and it ran better: http://ngemu.com/threads/dolphin-x64-dual-core-announced.82697/

Shit, I still remember the day it went open source

>>166482315
I like that the animation doesn't play every time you change the wind direction.

>>166481294
>The whole shader cache thing isn't something that was present until latter versions though, at-least that's how I recall it
Perhaps you're right. I still think it's sad how CEMU implemented portable shader cache first. Dolphin devs still think it's a bad idea for some odd reason. I don't know why anyone would look up to those devs. I wonder if it's because they don't want to "copy" CEMU's idea.

>>166482657
Well I've seen people get issues from borrowed shader cache on CEMU (mostly worse performance) so that may be also another thing they're trying to avoid.

>>166482315
Severely reduced length of triforce gathering quest reduces the busywork and padding.

>>166482657

They don't want to "copy" CEMU's idea because the CEMU developers have threatened them in the past.

>>166483220

Not reduced, just rendered optional

Where were you when Ryphecha denied her divinity and so doing became the Queen Mother of Retrogod?

I just had a thought. RA's new netplay - does it work in the PSP core?
I'm assuming not, since it's a one person per console thing, but it could be good if they did get it working, allowing for stuff like MonHun and Dissidia to be played over the net but also potentially side by side on one screen.
That said, they'd need to resurrect the core as well.

yeah, me and my friend played Monster Hunter pretty smoothly and cohesively with the evolve VPN

We tried the coldbird shit but it never worked when connecting with users during quests unless you do something with your router

>>166509953
Speaking of, can you get 3ds titles directly like wii u ones?

I don't see any 3ds titles on the wii u usb helper

Pardon my ignorance, but what's the difference between Cg, GLSL and Slang shaders?

>>166513371
CG is the old format, GLSL is the alternative because CG has some caveats, slang is for when you use the vulkan backend because neitehr CG or GLSL will work.

>>166511905
How does Evolve work? And why isn't there something seamless?

>>166513957
I havent played in a while so if I can remember you make a group and invite your friends to that group kind of like skype, install the virtual network device and it gives you an IP address

put that IP in PPSSPP and it should work if I can recall

>>166513957
>And why isn't there something seamless?
I'm not sure what you are asking, are you asking why isnt there something that can be utlized without going through this roundabout path?

Well there technically is, you have to use the coldbird.net server which works like modern multiplayer, but does not when connecting directly with other players; for example in monster hunter, you can see other player in lobbies but you can not connect with each other when the quest starts or in Tekken, you can see matches but the match will not start

Now, you can get away with this by changing something in your router settings and I cant remember what it is, but apparently it could be a potential point for security risks or something

>>166514473
specifically this URL for the coldbird servers

https://pro.coldbird.net/status/status.xml

>>166514473
The thing you have to change is DMZ which is like spreading your asscheecks, and that's why I asked why there isn't anything seamless, as coldbird clearly isn't. If it were it wouldn't be dead as fuck other than the N*ruto/Dr*gonball shit.

I'm pretty sure there is no such thing as a "fully finished feature" in the first place because nothing in software is ever truly "finished".

It's true, though.
I mean, afer about 40%, I just played it for the sake of having it completed.
Only redeemable point is visuals/anime sequences (both thanks to Ghibli).
The catching monster aspect is nice but too grindy. Because you have no real influence if a monster wants to join you or not.
And what I found to be disappointing the most is the fact that you don't get to draw the runes like it's the case in the DS version of it. Which fucking sucks because the game already has little interaction with the player already.

The combat never evolves. Your AI companions are awful and hinder more than help in a fight by using up all their MP skills as soon as possible, meaning you have to expend MP heal items on them so they can use spells again.
When your monsters evolve, they're weaker than their base version until you've leveled them up about 10 times.
All the sidequests are boring stuff like "catch a thing, random chance of it actually being caught" or "deliver this item" or "kill 10 of" or just fetchquests.
The story is OK but it's very stop and start due to the grind and shit inbetween and it becomes a bit crap after the first half of the game.

I really wanted it to be good, but I didn't stick around for post-game. It has some great moments and I'll always remember it for them, but mostly because my friend and I played it together and now have tons of in-jokes about it.

I wish it was a film. I do not think I want to purchase the 2nd game.

>>166567893
Desmume has a bunch of settings that, while they make the games look better, they break stuff and make performance go to shit, generally the amount of bugs in Desmume and NO$GBA is the same, but the performance of NO$GBA is better, so generally you want to go with it, NO$GBA can also emulate some DSi stuff, while desmume can't.

Oh shit, it happens on my laptop too. Same area in windwaker and the FPS halves with a precompiled shadercache. (was 15 before).

>>166567654
You'll need to dip your hands in all the three available to find whats best for you and the game you are playing
In general you'll be fine with Desmume but it is absurdly hardware intensive for how inaccurate it is. Also the mainline has fucking trash UI customization for some reason
Your next best thing would be No$gba which trades off accuracy for performance. Its also your only choice if you want to emulate DSi games.
Then there is Drastic which you'll have to play using >>166567792
Its actually less hardware intensive than Desmume especially for high resolution rendering and even has less glitches than it in some titles that I tested. The only problem with it that I encountered was audio crackling which requires fiddling with the latency settings.

>>166569130
What emulator? Mednafen-beetle allows cpu overclock.

>>166569347
PCSX-Reloaded with pgxp fork. It also has cpu overcloking but im using it wrong or something because the framrate gets worse with that.

I already did once. Couldn't get it fully open because one of the screws was stuck.

@166575923 (not giving you)

Does this need to be posted in every emugen?

SP is actually an experimental, top of the line prototype coding AI which exists in an AI development lab somewhere. Its only time not spent rambling about politics or coding Retroarch is system down time for maintenance.

Here's how I have mine for a PS2 controller. The layout of the buttons is the same, so you shouldn't have problems binding it on X360 pad.

Square - A
Cross - B
Circle - C
Triangle - Y
L1 - X
R1 - Z

I usually rebind first 3 Genesis buttons and save game remap to

Square - B
Cross - C
Circle - A

Because fuck having jump as circle in most games.

What rom do I need for playing Streets of Rage 2 online?

You need to use whatever version the other person is using.

The hash is made up of just zeroes, that's why I'm asking.

>>166578354
Thanks

>>166578765
Oh yeah some cores still don't show up the rom's crc. People tend to use the no-intro USA version.
Anyway, looking at the lobby right now I can see that the only 2 open sessions are just for testing purposes and no one's playing.

Something is very wrong here.

PCSX gets pretty regular updates. Sometimes multiple commits a day.
