>not emulating on GNU/Linux installed on a Mac
Here's the original image if you care. Paint.exe's object Wrap plugin won't work on the current version, so I couldn't give it a nice black outline.
Also used Arial black. Feel free to use another font if you want to.
So what are you guys emulating? For me it's pic related.
any processors you guys recommend for dolphin?
>>135843453
i5 6600k
>>135843662
sounds reasonable. According the the dolphin website i7's arent very beneficial for it.
https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/faq/
>>135843453
I've got an i5 2500K at 4.9 ghz and it handled everything pretty well with 4.3ghz even when using LLE sound so I imagine anything above that will work if overclocked a bit.
I haven't made a new one yet but we need the bump.

im trying to savescum on a game called mirai ninja on mame. i can save but wheneve ri load the graphjics get all corrupted and its basically unplayable. ive saved stated on many arcade games but this one (and a few others) dont really work. its a really old version of mame, like 5 years old. is there any chance of these having been """"""""""""""""""fixed"""""""""""""""""""" on a newer version, or an alternative solution? i really want to finish this game...

I feel like ppsspp is a bit topheavy to be a libretro core anyway. Too many settings, etc.
It's not as bad as trying to make say, dolphin into a core, but imo it's not the best suited for it, so I could see why there's not as much interest.
Not to mention, retroarch is all about portability, and is there anything other than a desktop computer and maybe some high-end phones capable of running ppsspp?
>>135855583
It's all Android exclusive shit.
>>135862170
PPSSPP also provide Android builds and won't run fullspeed on consoles anyway.
There's zero reason to use retroarch for this

So I've been wanting to turn my toaster into a cool arcade machine, but I've been seeing two main choices for emulators:
Fightcade
MAME
Any help? Is fightcade just another form of MAME? I can't seem to see the difference between them, other than the fact that fightcade has net play.
>>135884986
fightcade is finalburnalpha, and has a limited number of games it can play (though it will probably play 90% of what you want.)
I've been trying to find out what the aspect ratio of Front Mission 3, and google has failed me hard. Anyone know how to check the native resolution of a game on say retroarch for example? I'll try anything as long as its sure-proof.
I measured my psvita screen to see what it outputs to and got an aspect ratio of 93:70, resolution of 372x280, but it still seems off.

There's a reason most whites and East Asians are not into that type of music.
The root of the problem is our countries have become corporatocracies, and their interests have usurped the people's interests. Copyright was a deal meant to bolster the public domain with a limited monopoly. But corporations like Disney have made an absolute mockery of the concept (life plus 70 to 120 years), and will continue to extend it indefinitely so that Mickey Mouse never falls into the public domain.
Copyright was once and should become again 14 years long. And further, the cessation of official sales of a product should end said copyright. But we the people have no power to change the legal landscape. So our only option is civil disobedience. And the internet has empowered us greatly there. They can pass all the laws they want, and make the fines as great as they want. But they can't put us all in prison.
>>135899230
Because it doesn't appeal to their demographic?
Can a i5 6600 (no K) + GTX 970 run all games @1080p?
>>135902653
There's something intrinsic to the music that people with particular traits dislike. Whites and E.Asians both have those traits.

after all the information out there about their planned obsolescence 2 year upgrade scheme and the advent of DX12 and its performance benefits for only amd cards and theres still people out there willing to spend more sheckles on an inferior product. people are so stupid.

>>135906972
It basically will need to be hacked by someone nice and spread around to be good, because the bad things are fully intentional - namely the forced composition causing bad input delay, and the keylogger/monitoring part that reports regularly to a location that coincidentally happens to be where the United States' NSA headquarters is, which will take up bandwidth even if you don't care about genuinely amoral people having your passwords and private conversations.

i installed win10 back in november and it's still less responsive than win7. can't tell a difference between 8.1 and 10 though.

Alot of people have problems with Windows 10.

Emulators are going for Vulkan over DX12, and even then AMD has driver issues with DX12.

AMD has driver issues with everything. At this point AMD might as well just shut down their PC GPU business and just make console APUs
>>135907763
if you skipped 8.1 then how could you.
>>135907893
considering you get an inherent boost in performance from the api that nvidia wont see and the dx12 performance increases that come from more direct hardware access that benefit emulators so well there should be no question.
>>135908092
there are already emulators out that utilize dx12 though.
>>135908649
although I can agree that forcing updates seems draconian. there really isnt a reason not to update your security loopholes. Their reasoning behind it is sound as well. they want everyone on windows to have the newest os on the most recent build to make optimizing games much less of a hassle kind of like how consoles are easy to optimize because of this. I mean its really not necessary but devs these days are lazy and this is ms way to combat the problem.
>>135908843

dx12 will show retroactive performance improvements all the way back to the 7000 series. since nvidia changes their architecture every two years they wont see any improvements unless they make a new one designed to take advantage of the new api's improved hardware access. they havent announced anything to suggest this.
>>135910991
considering its industry standard it would be suicide to do anything to compromise the customers trust.

>>135910426
>sure but they wont show any performance increases.
AMD's DX12 performance gains have more to do with AMD's crappy DX11 performance than anything. Nvidia pushed the limits of DX11 by designing their architecture to exploit it, and therefore DX12 brings fewer benefits.
Does anyone know the name of the game where you were supposed to build a city? I think it was on ps2.
>>135914137
no it has to do with optimized hardware access. nvidia doesnt into that considering their whole business plan is based on planned obsolescence. their business practices are highly illegal they are just counting on the law not catching up with their shenanigans.
>>135912483
this is a problem. You are completely deluded if you think that error dumps would be all there is to it.
I don't think you really understand what is at stake and you should know better than to think that anybody here has an irrational fear of the kind of things these monsters are capable of, and it always fucking starts with seemingly innocuous concessions.

Lot of work for ??? benefits that are apparently just for already-bad graphics hardware vendors. Why wouldn't you just upgrade to 7 instead of all that?
>>135916923
Lots of work is relative. The effort is for peace of mind and feeling like you aren't being sold against your will.
If you have a pfsense router https://www.pfsense.org/ or a router with custom firmware http://dd-wrt.com its pretty easy to do.
Hell I even have a VM running a thing called pi-hole just for blocking ads on the network. https://pi-hole.net/
None of it is difficult. You set it up and don't have to worry about it.
Sure you can install Windows 7 but you are still sending crap to Microsoft. Block it once on the router and ALL the computers on your network are protected.
>>135916827
>implying they haven't just been better about hiding it
The NSA can just force them same as Microsoft. Did you think this whole "make virus spying OS and give it away for FREE" thing was Gates' idea or something? They don't have a choice, and if they don't neither do Apple.
The only safety is open source "LMAO NO GAMES, HOPE YOU LIKE MANUALS" operating systems, simply because they can't hide anything with the source shown. Welcome to the dystopian future.
>>135916827

>>135919253
>Why?
Its obnoxious and I'd rather spend my time doing other things. If I have to remember or look up commands to install the os then its a failure on their part as far as I'm concerned because other distros wont waste my time on nonsense.
I've used linux for years and adore the hell out of it but telling anyone to use command line for things like installs and updates is insane.
I've put in my dues doing shit like looking up monitor specs to configure X just to get something to display over the years. I'm old, tired, cranky and done with that type of bs.
I don't even dislike command line, it just bothers me to see software present options and functions without describing them right there when there's plenty of room to do so on the prompt/panel/window - and instead make you go through reference documents to find it. Plenty of Linux developers know about immediate-teaching design style though, so it's not really something I'd call an OS problem.SP just needs to catch up a little is all. Description text with the options would clear up all retardation-related user complaints instantly.

they are going to have a real hard time making American soldiers kill American citizens. the military is no threat to the American people. but win10 is really the only option right now for pc gamers. and besides the nsa shit you dont have to worry about ms looking at your hard drive, as soon as they got caught doing this any company that creates anything with a pc and doesnt want that data to be leaked would either just unplug the internet from those computers or start to migrate to apple or linux. ms hasnt got to where they are by stealing intellectual property. emulation will still be a thing dont be scurred.
>>135923654
you can still opt out of the user experience program on win 10 if you want but all its for is to catch problems early and be able to fix them without having to have people contact them with the problems first. considering most people on pc are normies this is a good thing.

power comes from numbers. I'm not worried.
>>135926903
GLideN64 supports LLE, though. Heck, even Glide64 supports LLE now, thanks to purplemarshmallow cut-and-pasting GLideN64's LLE code into PJ64's Glide64 fork. It's very buggy--far buggier than GLideN64--but it works.
So there's really no excuse.
Also, HLE allows for some rather nifty visual enhancements. All you can do with LLE is texture mods.
>>135927451
Coincidentally, PJ64's RSP recompiler can run Factor 5 games now.
>>135927572
I had to add the fixfpulocations hack myself. There could be some hidden stability issues, but otherwise it runs at a comfy 60VIs with very few graphics glitches aside from the obvious LLE triangle problem.

Five years ago, this screenshot would have caused excitement and amazement. In 2016, it attracts little attention.
What happened to us?
>>135928919
N64 missed the window to be relevant. When N64 emulation is perfected, 5-10 years from now no one will care about it.
>>135928884
I don't think you understand how N64 emulators work. LLE graphics is really not that hard to do because the bulk of the work is done on the RSP plugin. You just need to handle the RDP side of things on the video plugin. PJ64 is primarily LLE.
>>135929025

Has the same fate befallen Xbox 360/PS3 emulation? Will anybody care about 7th gen consoles in 2 years?
>>135929194
90% of the games can already be played on pc at higher resolution and better fps so probably not.
>>135929402
Why are we even here, then?

>>135929049
>LLE graphics is really not that hard to do because the bulk of the work is done on the RSP plugin.
RDP is way harder than RSP, hence why there's no RDP recompiler.
>>135926903
I don't think you know the difference between HLE and LLE.
It looks to me as if Gonetz is working all week, and then spending a few hours of each night on the weekend debugging GLideN64. He's fixing a fair few bugs. If he can keep up this pace, he'll bring GLideN64 up to Glide64 levels of game compatibility before long. And then the only remaining problem before it can become PJ64's main video plugin is ensuring that it can run on a wider range of hardware.
The second problem is fixing GLideN64's LLE. The main problems are performance, broken depth buffer, and no fog. The foundation of GLideN64 is very good. A majority of bug fixes improve both LLE and HLE compatibility.
Purplemarshmallow and HatCat are also working on z64gl, and have made some significant improvements. But z64gl lags way behind GLideN64 in a lot of areas.
>>135926668
Lost cause. He hasn't even fixed issue #875.

LegendofDragoon is handling that. He's just a bit procrastinating. He ummed and awwed for months about fixing the RSP recompiler for Factor 5 games, and it took purplemarshmallow to actually do something about it.
And that something was simply making the Semaphore Exit hack only apply to a few games (such as World Driver Championship) instead of everything. https://github.com/project64/project64/pull/1033
Gonetz is currently focused on fixing bugs that GLideN64 has but Glide64 doesn't. Coincidentally, Glide64 crashes Jet Force Gemini if you open the config menu while the game is running unpaused.
>>135932158
>LegendofDragoon is handling that. He's just a bit procrastinating.
He can't even run it properly nor compile, based on his posts. So it's probably up to Gonetz.
>Coincidentally, Glide64 crashes Jet Force Gemini if you open the config menu while the game is running unpaused.
But at least PJ64's Glide forces it to pause. Sucks to crash a game because of opening the config..
>Gonetz is currently focused on fixing bugs that GLideN64 has but Glide64 doesn't.
I get that, but issues that are easy to fix should be high priority.
Does anyone know the game on ps2 where you drew creatures and then you would battle them?
>>135932932
>But at least PJ64's Glide forces it to pause.
No, that's controlled by the emulator.
>Sucks to crash a game because of opening the config..
JFG has some eccentric buffer behavior that causes it.
>>135933587
>No, that's controlled by the emulator.
How come only that plugin pauses the emulator? It doesn't pause when I open Jabo's Video config.
>>135934023
>How come only that plugin pauses the emulator? It doesn't pause when I open Jabo's Video config.
Jabo's pauses the emulator for me. What version of Jabo's? What version of PJ64?
>>135934196
I'm using Jabo's 1.7.0.57-ver5 and a build of Pj64 2.2 which is about 1 month old. I have "Pause emulation when window is not active" disabled.
>>135934524
If you disable that, the emulator won't pause when you open the GFX config window.
>>135935174
>If you disable that, the emulator won't pause when you open the GFX config window.
With most plugins, this is true, but not PJ64's Glide64 or Lemmy's D3D9.
>>135935373
Probably a bug, or an intentional hack. It's not supposed to behave that way.
>>135935684
I think it's an intentional hack. I do think a proper solution would be better. Just realized though, that I'm not sure if I tried the very latest PJGlide64 with WX removed. I'll have to try updating and see if it still pauses the emulator.
>>135936476
I tried it, and it still does.
>>135932054
Many mobo have some USB ports that for some reason don't work as well as others, probably something to do with power delivery or something.

How playable is Crisis Core with PPSSPP?
It kept crashing at the first fight with OpenGL. It got better with Directx9 but it's still crashing randomly during fights for me.
A lot of the helpful links are on troubleshooting problems with emulators but is there any directory for what sites are actually worth using for downloading games, specifically PS2 ISOs?
I just left my computer on all night to download 2GB at like 50kbps for a PS2 iso from coolrom that ended up just being corrupted. The frustrating part is I own the game, the disk is just proper fucked because I was retarded as a child.
>>135951513
The later gen stuff is trickier. Torrents are preferable, given the large file sizes. Most trackers should have a healthy stock of ISOs.

Is there a way to generate jpn0.pgf files for use with PPSSPP?
I found some tools which allow me to convert .ttf files into .pgf, but they never generate a jpn0.pgf, resulting in issues with Japanese games which rely on that font file.

dear emugen, i know this isn't a place to discuss about games itself, but i'm gonna play my first final fantasy game that isn't from the tactics series.
what's the best title to start the series? would it be a mistake if i played final fantasy iii (vi) first?
i have all of them ready to be started on my full retroarch archive.
Is DeSmuME X432R still relevant? The latest build I could find on emucr is almost a year old.
>>135957531
It would only be a mistake playing the newest ones first, make sure you play the PS1 games at some point though.
>>135957531
VI is the best, so every game after will seem like a disappointment (except maybe VII).
You should probably start with VI or VII though. Go big or go home.
>>135957726
>Is DeSmuME X432R still relevant?
The scaling got ported to libretro (not sure if it got ported to upstream), so no, it's not.
>>135957780
alright then i'll start with VI tonight.
this music and intro hit me real hard while i was testing out the roms
https://youtu.be/RDMWp1oLoA0?t=222
thanks guys
>>135957916
I don't know what that means, could you elaborate?
>>135958208
The only think X432R did that the regular Desmume didn't was higher internal resolution scaling, so models in 3D games would look better.
Then, Desmume-libretro (the version Retroarch uses) added in the scaling at some point
I don't know if the regular Desmume ever added it in, but either way, X432R isn't relevant anymore
Speaking of Desmume, what is happening here? Official Libretro Upstream support?

Lost a memory card last night, looking to get a similar save file back.
>>135966495
I still need to play that game but I feel like it's going to be one of those very enjoyable games so I want to wait for the right time so I appreciate it fully.
Is there a way to stop retroarch from pausing the game when I press the Home button on my 360 controller?
>>135963826
>>135964736
I'd still recommend getting the Ted Woolsey Uncensored patch, though. It fixes a lot of problems with the game, both localization and bug-wise.
>>135968619
>holding bug fixes hostage in order to force people to endure a shit translation
There's a special layer in hell for all those involved.
>>135968819
The fuck? That patch keeps all of the Woolsey flavor while taking out the legitimate censorship and other such nonsense, like the leap of faith shit that made no sense for me even as a kid. Also, all those bugfixes were from other patches. They just got aggregated into one patch.
>>135967578
>>135966495
I pray you don't hit my feels with it. Every time ive tried to play the game, something went wrong. If i don't get a save file around the point that i lost, i will probably never try again.

Everything is ruined for everyone for all time.

purplemarshmallow's pull request wouldn't have worked without LegendofDragoon's help.

I was playing Another Century's Episode 2 on PCSX2 no problem for the past couple of days on full speed on my laptop. But today I started it and its running at like half speed now. Any clue what the problem could've been? It started to get laggy after I used my first save state.
