I believed that Freedom Unite had such a shitty font intentionally.
Any reason why it isn't packaged with PPSSPP by default?

Are you fucking kidding me?
The reason why I can't play Daytona USA on my linux machines is because some retards refuse to release the source of a windows only emulator?

Absolutely not

why is emugen so dead

I thought with Cemu doing so well there would be more discussion

>>169401801
I had it running Link Between Worlds on a non overclocked phenom, it was like 40-60FPS, not that bad. That changes a lot, because the Pokemon games are a slowdown fest.

>>169401801
Citra is to 3DS emulation what JPCSP was to PSP emulation
A better, more optimized emulator is gonna pop up in half a decade.

>>169406843
why not just help citra get better since it's already working and it's opensource?

>>169406843
Don't kid yourself, most systems beyond Dreamcast don't have anything but a single playable emulator. NDS and PSP are an exception because they're both handhelds, relatively simple and in case of NDS there was a lot of autists willing to work on it like with all Nintendo systems.

>>169407159
So was JPSCP. Its not like PPSSPP popped up out of thing air. A lot of knowledge learned from JPSCP was applied in it.

>>169408180
>NDS and PSP are an exception because they're both handhelds
And what is a 3DS perchance?

>>169406843
JPSCP was coded in java according to the wiki, and it wasn't originally intended to be an emulator but a debugger, that's why something else came along. I don't see the same thing going with Citra.

>>169408524
I'd like to be proven wrong but I think 3DS is complex enough that starting a completely new emulator would be a waste of time for a potential developer, especially considering writing emulators is not the hottest thing you can do to land yourself a job

I don't know what it was about let's say N64 that made people write so many emulators of it, but I think coders nowadays would rather work on something that would make them employable, that's why you see such a decrease in new emulation projects and increase in paid shit like Cemu

>>169408958
>and it wasn't originally intended to be an emulator but a debugger
You need to accurately emulate a system's instructions to be a functional debugger for it.
There is a very good reason why most emulators have built in debugging features.

>>169409047
>starting a completely new emulator would be a waste of time for a potential developer
I beg to differ. Citra's code is low quality. Sticking to that code-base could actually hinder progress, at least for some developers. I know I've wasted time in the past by using someone else's low quality code instead of writing my own. If the code is of quality, then I would generally agree that it's a waste of time.

>>169409483

Actually, because the higher end cards in PC emulators freak the fuck out unless you're running in DOS. Tried it and nothing happened after installing the driver. Either I tried too new of a driver or it still doesn't work.

The Daytona USA re-release that was on PS3/Xbox 360 was in reality using a modified version of the Nebula Model 2 emulator. That deal with Sega is probably why you have never seen the source, and also why the 'source' he did share with MAME is not to be redistributed.

Add on top of that MAME being incompetent and not able to do anything with his sources and Model 2 emulation is not going to get anywhere fast. Plus, MAME sucks at making anything performant anyway, so if even assuming there were smart devs who were capable of backporting it to MAME, it'd be software only and dogslow.

>>169425035
Hmmm, do they do actual DLC for other systems? Their "DLC" set for the 3DS is just eShop games, and not actual DLC.

But seriously, yeah at least wait for objective Ryzen benchmarks. If what the current benchmarks suggest is true, AMD will finally have better per-core performance than Intel, making their processors better for emulation.

If you don't intend to invest in a new motherboard and want to stick with Intel's 1151 socket, the i5-6600 should handle most PS2 games well enough.
Of course, as >>169486580 said, overclocking with the unlocked K processor will net better performance for less than $20 more.

Not for me specifically but for archival reasons in general.
The model 2 had some of the most successful and popular arcade games of all time and the only emulator available will eventually stop working on newer OS's because the Source isn't released and it's not in development anymore.

Guys, I have a confession to make. I don't ever use emulators, I play all my games on real hardware(with flashcards/softmods). I only come here to shitpost.

I play Crysis 3 on 'very high' now.

yes it doesn't happen in retroarch.

How do I get past the "Couldn't determine system mode" error on Citra? I'm only loading .3ds files + the settings seem to have no problems.

Can you also use a controller for Citra?

>>169391752
So Retroarch is the most picky cunt of a program I have dealt with, why the fuck would anyone bother with this janky, clumsy mess of a frontend save for border overlays and Medafen Beetle?

>>169511586
.3ds files are encrypted which citra cannot read

>Can you also use a controller for Citra?
only in the bleeding edge builds IIRC.

>>169511829
oh okay, is there a desktop program that can decrypt them? I don't have a 3DS with Decrypt9 at the moment

>>169511950
We need the keys from the ARM9 bootrom. There are some people that have dumped it, but they're moralfags.

Hey guys, RPCS3 progress report for this month is going up in a few minutes.

>>169512328
RPCS3 is doing VERY well. Persona 5 is already in-game, along with Bayoneta and quite a few others. Multiple builds are being pushed every day at this point. You should check out our discord!

>>169511761

>>169512698
They aren't very playable at the moment, but the fact that they even go in-game is incredible.

It's been pretty fun watching the live updates on the discord. The guy developing it is doing it full-time from when I understand, so I doubt it will be abandoned.

>>169513176
It really depends on how complex the games are. Minecraft, for example, visually is almost flawless besides water being a little wonky. The FPS on there is around 25-30.

Persona 5 I believe is still in the single digit FPS range, and the graphics are broken.

Also, here's a screenshot of the PS3 version of GTA:SA.

>Many users seem to take it as a personal affront when an emulator doesn't work absolutely perfectly on the 486 that they fished out of a dumpster, or when there's a slight graphical glitch in their favorite game that nobody's ever heard of, and thus, not gone out of their way to test. They demand, whine, cajole, and get downright insulting towards the developers, which might very well work when the person they're yelling at is making minimum wage at the local Piggly-Wiggly and has a manager who will appease them just to get out of the store. But it doesn't work to pull that sort of behavior on someone who doesn't have a manager to emasculate them by forever reneging on company policy.

It was dead until the last month when RPCS3 got a patreon.

I'm sure you all must get this question constantly, but I'm tearing my hair out over here.

I've got a laptop with a 970m and I'm trying to run ePSXe. I've got the 2.9 Petes, I've changed the stretching and render mode to 1, but I'm STILL getting the Missing Render Texture Extension crash. I cant get this thing to boot on ANY config I've tried. Is this a known incompatability, or what?

RPCS3 monthly progress report is live right now.
It is still being edited a bit, so please understand if there are still some errors.

>>169518216

I got cemu up and running earlier today and have gotten both bayonetta 1/2 to work but theres a small issue thats annoying the shit out of me
All of the cutscenes audio/video desync almost immediately. In bayo 1 its less prevalent but in bayo 2 cutscenes will randomly hang for a second or 2 making the desync much worse
The game runs at 50-60 fps ingame normally so I have no clue why the cutscenes are like this

Is there some fix my googling has failed to show me?

>there will never be a good PS1 emulator

>>169522065
epsxe is fucking awesome.
stfu

I'm using XEBRA because I'm too stupid to use plugins and whatever else is required for all the other PSX emulators. how exactly do I change the button inputs? I've got the controller menu open, but it doesn't seem to change anything after I press OK, so I'm probably doing something wrong.

I'm mad about MAME pretending they give a fuck about 'accuracy' yet none of their drivers reflect that. You need look no further than Model 2 to see that.

>>169537658

They have been sitting on this code for at least 2014 too BTW. Possibly even years earlier.

MAMEdev is corrupt and engages in withholding sourcecode, because Elsemi likes to make exclusive contracts with Sega.

>>169535171
;_;

>>169538086
Forget the source code, is there documentation of the Model 2? If so, someone could write a new emulator.

>>169538326

No source = no documentation

>>169538629
Source code and documentation are two different things. If there is documentation of the various components of the hardware, then someone could implement new code that emulates that hardware.

>>169538791

What do you think these 'docs' are that MAMEdev is sitting on that Elsemi gave them next to sourcecode?

It's probably all stolen docs too as usual with these 'emudevs'.

>>169541484

Elsemi never 'legit reversed' jack shit, unless you consider stealing Sega docs to be 'reversing' and then selling stolen shit back to them. Great conman that one, as most people in MAMEdev.

>>169539947

LOL, Logan never did any reversing at all, biggest joke is on you for thinking he is anything more than a glorified porter.

>>169577631

>>169494312
No one can answer that. Someone needs to make a Geometry Shader code that is compatible with all the emulator actually built-in code and ask for it to be merged with Citra's master repository, if it has no issues, then that's it. The thing is that nobody could ever kniow WHEN the fuck will someone give that a try.

Use the lilypad input plugin and map either Dpad to analog or analog to Dpad.
