So just to set everything straight before I spend $40 on amazon. If I have these 2 items, I can play Skyward Sword on dolphin:

1) wiimote with motion +
2) dolphin bar

That's it, correct?

My laptop has builtin Bluetooth

>>175797134
You also need a nunchuck if you're going that route.

But an anon itt recently ported motion+ emulation to mainline Dolphin, you might want to try that out first.

Check the previous thread >>175794643

>>175797134
Oh yeeeeaaaahhhh, suuuuuuuuuuure

>>175797804
it looks really awkward playing on 360, I'll stick with the wiimote

>>175797925
wats this mean?

>>175797804
The nunchuk should be able to be emulated I think, with that Hybrid Wiimote option.

>>175798331
I tried playing Mario Galaxy with a mouse and controller before, and holding it in one hand isn't very comfortable.

N64 emulation is so fucked up, Banjo Tooie is still impossible to run without glitches no matter what you do. NONE of the N64 emulators work properly whatsoever.

" Emulation is a process for playing classic games that anyone can do with no issues. It's easy: with the emulator, you select the game, and play. Simplicity transcends to become art as the thought of an "emulator" washes away and you are sucked into the seamless game experience. Afterward you sell your old game systems, as the emulators have perfected the games better than even the original console could have. Simple, elegant, gaming bliss. Emulation General~ "

bitch about it here instead of github

I've been playing Megaman Battle Network 2 on my 3ds, and the entire thing has played fine up until the end game. Attempting to transition into the WWW post-game area causes the game to consistently freeze, and occasionally make horrible screeching noises while this happens.

This is the patched VC version that modifies the transition to flash less, so I'm wondering if there's something fucky with that?

I cannot find a single thing on google about this, and I would prefer not to start the entire game over again because it's a bad rom, or something fuck.

>>175804295
Interesting, I had a similar problem with 1 on PSP's gpsp

I tried to set up my ds4 for ps2 emulation, but ds4windows doesn't seem to recognize it. It appears as wireless controller in devices, but ds4windows appears empty in shared and exclusive mode. Does anyone know what's wrong with it? I'm also using windows 10.

>>175804295
What patch is it exactly? It might just not work on real hardware.

>>175805501
It was fine up until this one specific point, which is what I find so odd. They're the Virtual Console patches for the Wii U that were dumped a long time ago, and applied to a rom which was then converted into a cia for installation on a 3ds.

>Nobody on either The Rockman EXE Zone (Where the patch is hosted), or 3dsiso (Thread where I downloaded it) seems to have experienced this problem
Crashing when accessing the post-game isn't as bad as EB's piracy protection, but damn if it doesn't make me salty

>>175807172
Yeah, I bet it just doesn't work on real hardware, which the 3DS essentially is for GBA, unlike the Wii U.

You should be able to just dump the save, install the unpatched version and inject the save into that though. Not sure if JKSM can handle GBA saves or not or what can, but I'm sure it's possible; ask >>>/vg/hbg

Also make sure you're actually running the game at fullspeed and that this isn't just an issue with you having a toaster or ayymd CPU.
>>175818728
Ditch that shitty office CPU. Get an i5 from the last 5 years, like a 4690. Also consider a 1060/580 GPU instead. that 570 isn't gonna last at 1080p/60FPS high/ultra.

>>175823676
games run at full speed tried to use the wiki settings but it makes you see most of the lights through walls.
went back to the previous settings and actually after getting used to it its not so bad.
i ran into a new problem with the map though.
running it on software mode eliminates the map problem but i want to be able get rid of it on hardware mode.
any suggestions?

It's a popular game, so I'd try some googling if you haven't already and see what turns up in the PCSX2 forums for those specifics issues. Easy things to try would be changing the renderer to DX9, OpenGL etc, using a different rendering resolution and playing around with hardware hacks

Tetris Grand Master 3

>>175829928
Tetris The Grand Master 3

The arcade machine actually runs a modified version of Windows, so you can get a loader for it and run it natively.

>>175829928
The one where the pieces start to go invisible. That shits insane.

>>175824251
i though that its a popular game and there should be no problems to emulate it too,but it seems that the only way to fix the map is to switch to software mode.

>>175830041

>>175830024
>>175830041
Not that guy but what's so special about this version?

>>175831809
I have it, but I have no idea where I got if from, so I guess I can upload it.

>>175831891
It has autistic attention to detail in how blocks rotate/fall/etc, and it has a save feature where you save your initials with a password and it remembers you, and you rank up by continuously playing well over many games. The top rank is Grand Master, and only like a dozen people have achieved it, and all but one are Japanese. It's pretty hardcore.

>>175824187
Disable auto sort in Video settings, and disable whatever the other two settings are that are next to auto sort. I think you check the boxes to disable. There will be some graphical glitches in some games specifically from the lack of auto sort, but without disabling it the emu will run 5 times slower. Enjoy! I don't even know if Shenmue works properly like that, so have fun finding out for yourself!

Okay here it is. It's a self-extracting archive and the loader is already in there; that's just how I got it.

Just run TGM3.bat to start and pad_config.exe to change keys. You could probably find another loader too. This one is doesn't seem that great though it works well enough for me.

Are DS emulators just fucking dysfunctional trash? Because holy fuck I just tried one and it's the worst emu I've ever used. It literally can't even make menus in FFIV work, runs worse than ps2 emus and the dev is apparently a humongous cuntwaffle. I'd be better off emulating a fucking phone to run it.

>>175834020
Just buy cheap refurbished DSL/i with some cheap flashcard. Or hack your WiiU.

>>175834127
Or emulate a phone for the only game I wanted to play on it that's also on a phone.

eah, they all have negative points. NO$GBA is trash but it runs on toasters, Desmume gets the job done but sucks for a lot of reasons, Drastic is Android Exclusive because Exophase just never ended up porting it to UWP and MelonDS is just a baby.

Supposedly, using DraStic through an Android emulator is the best option but I never really tried.

Yes, of course I am, you're clearly underestimating it just because it doesn't fit your high standard for one or other reason. Even a fucking i3 2100 is an absolutely decent CPU nowadays.

I heard Odin Sphere runs pretty well on RPCS3, but my game gets stuck on the trophy check.

Anyone else experienced this with this game? How do I fix it? Apparently I just have to keep relaunching the game until it goes through? Seems kinda silly.

>>175884826
Yes.

>>175881826
No, he means the mGBA core. RetroArch is just the frontend to play different emulators. It has different cores for GBA.

>>175880196
Cg was what they originally used, because it supported both OpenGL and Direct3D9, and worked on PS3, and could be used compiled as HLSL for Xbox 360. However, Cg was discontinued by Nvidia and doesn't support OpenGL contexts higher than 3.1, nor DRM/KMS context, so this format is considered to be on life support.

The GLSL format was considered to be a "compatibility" format for mobile devices, evolved from the older XML shader format created for bsnes, since Cg did not support mobile devices at all. Originally, they were just Cg shaders that were converted with a Python script and Cg cross compiler, but now there are many hand-ported ones due to some issues with the automatic conversions. They are used on PC as well with the OpenGL renderer, especially if using higher OpenGL contexts or DRM/KMS.

Slang is a newer format that uses a combination of glslang and SPIRV-Cross to compile GLSL code to SPIR-V code, then performing reflection to the SPIR-V code and disassembling it back to the high-level language of the target renderer. Currently, it is only used in the Vulkan renderer, but it appears that Themaister has plans for it to be a replacement for Cg as a cross-API shader format.

>>175881925
Cg uses 'profiles' to determine what features are available on a given graphics driver. Some drivers only used the lowest profile that supported the minimum features, so shaders that made use of features that only exist in higher profiles would fail to compile on those devices. Nvidia cards supported all profiles, quite predictably.

Actually, it turns out that it's not random. I just looked this up and someone worked it out last year. Scrubbed ISOs can now be properly unscrubbed.

It's the only right way to store these discs for archival, and you can't know you have a properly dumped and unmodified copy unless it isn't scrubbed.

>>175986057
You're compressed copies are removing the padding, so they're technically 'incomplete' too.

Only because Redump is retarded when it comes to systems that use junk data. They shouldn't be archiving that shit.

it's been a while since I last used dolphin. does vulkan make a big difference?

>>176013291
Lemme break it down for you simply.

A xin-mo controller is for arcade buttons and joysticks. All the buttons are wired into the controller which looks like a circuit board. It has a usb cable on the end.

Now you can set it up for 1 player or 2. The problem is a lot of linux based systems only see it as 1 controller and completely ignore the input of the player 2 buttons.

Now I know it seems like it should be as simple as mapping the buttons through the UI but sadly its not. All player 2 buttons are completely ignored until the OS can properly see the device correctly.

So the system sees it but is confused how to make use of it.

>>175967487

>>176013919
Dunno if it's still buggier but it seems to overall be a decent speedup especially if you're using an AMD card.

>The problem is a lot of linux based systems only see it as 1 controller and completely ignore the input of the player 2 buttons.
I hear you but how would he have been able to see that both controller were detected and seemingly able to be configured if that was the case.
I mean I'm not him so I can only speculate but I doubt he came up with some other solution but wrote something that makes it seems like he misjudged the issue to begin with, that would go a step beyond "nvm fixed it :)" in terms of being a faggot.

I got the next OP pic right here.

Beetle PSX HW in Retroarch, Spyro 2. It's fixable, but the game is WAY more fun with wobble graphics. I'm too lazy to make a video but basically textures are constantly wobbling all the time, not in a sickening way, just making it really funny to play. The worst(and funniest) the wobbles get is the pause screen and journal, which is just comical how wobbly it is. I cherrypicked the most ridiculous screenshot of course.

Settings:
>Software Framebuffer ON
>Adaptive Smoothing ON
>Internal GPU 2x
>Texture Filtering SABR
>Internal Color Depth 32bpp
>PGXP memory + CPU, I use memory only bc laptop but memory + CPU makes textboxes look better, memory only has slight glitchy look
>PGXP vertex cache ON
>PGXP perspective correct texturing ON

To fix, turn PGXP perspective correct texturing OFF. It's because Spyro uses an interesting way of texturing with LOD, I don't know how it works but basically it's special.

>>176027505
that is fabulous. you should make a webm, if the wobbles move.

Higher than native resolution, making things sharper

I'd argue the right almost looks like an early PS2 game.

>>176040371
do the devs plan on adding that to Mednafen?

Does Majora's Mask work in Citra? Is Citra a force of benevolent good to all?

kys

>>176041959
Yes.

>>176041713
I don't think so.

The retroarch port has it, but it doesn't work perfectly, along with all the other PGXP fixes (I think), but it doesn't work perfectly and has quite a number of bugs.

Do you emulate to enhance the games or to achieve a authentic look and feel?

>>176042729
Why not? Rendering games at higher than native resolution is one of the great things emulators can do for games with 3D models.

>>176043208

I emulate because I don't own every console along with flashcards/modchips/real fucking games

Improved graphics is icing on the cake.

>The retroarch port has it, but it doesn't work perfectly

Works just fine here. Might have some seams in 2D surfaces in some game or other, but those issues are to be expected.

>>176043405
Well I haven't used it in a long time so they might have fixed a lot of stuff.

>>176042110
What kind of b8 is this even?

>>176042606
Thanks

God Hand is a great game that everyone should play. Devil Hand is the greatest boss fight ever in any video game. Oh and hard mode is fucking **HARD**

>>176044152
Of course I fucked up the spoiler. Keep forgetting I'm not on 8 c h a n

>>176042110
Is there a problem with the remake? The only thing I know is that you can save anywhere.

Not the Anon you're replying to, but (You) first.

>best version (visually)

>>176049903
240p isn't the best version of anything, visually. You can do a bit of upscaling in citra, but that'll cut your framerate down quite a bit.

>>176051320
Upscaling isn't demanding, the problem is that Citra itself is a demanding emulator, you need some top of the line i5/i7 to emulate some games at fullspeed, not to mention the Geometry Shaders issue, and others.

>>176051320
Upscaling is literally free unless you have integrated-tier GPU, the emulator is CPU-bound like most.

>>176051320
>You can do a bit of upscaling in citra, but that'll cut your framerate down quite a bit.
No it wont. My 750ti doesn't become the bottleneck until 8x resolution, which it still runs at >70fps unlocked (game is 30fps locked).

>>176051652
how does that even work. why does FPS go down in normal vidya games when you increase the resolution?

>>176051952

because they are GPU-bound

>>176051952
"Normal vidya" is several orders of magnitude more graphically complex than a motherfucking 3DS game, so unless you've got a poverty-tier GPU it'll handle it effortlessly.

>>176052057
so CPUs are more efficient at upscaling graphics than a dedicated card for graphics? technology, man.

>>176052443

I think you fundamentally misunderstand what the architecture of an emulator looks like

>>176052650
probably.

>>176041959
The boss fights are fucking ruined in the 3ds version. Especially Twinmold. That fight was infuriating. How the fuck was I supposed to know that he healed when he went back underground???

Has there ever been an actual case of purple skies "in the wild"? It seems to be only something that happens in emulation.
