First, I'd like to ask for help with Kega Fusion. I just reinstalled the emulator on my computer after making a clean install of Windows 7, and I cannot get Japanese Mega CD games to work (Pic related specifically since it's the only one I have). I've test my other Sega CD games, and they boot just fine. However, whenever I load up my Mega CD game, the emulator doesn't register either of the images files at all. To explain specifically, if I just opened the emulator and chose the game, I get a message from the American Sega CD BIOS saying to telling me to open the CD tray (With a similar message appearing all the same if I manually set it to boot the Japanese BIOS). However, if I open the Mega CD game after opening another Sega CD game, then the emulator just acts like I pressed "Hard Reset". I even tested my physical copy of the game, so I know it isn't because I have a bad image file. Can anyone, please, help me figure out what the problem is?

Played on original console Suikoden Tactics way back, found it shitty. Gave a second chance since nothing new is good aside from muh graphics and hitted on pcsx2. Well, for the new standarts off "good" the game is very solid! I am liking it now. Maybe it's not that it was bad at the time but my standarts were higher? And with time the standarts got lowered to fit the description of what people think it's good? No season pass, no dlcs that add things that should be there on the 1st place, no store to buy power ups with real money, you get easily underleved if you don't grind so it's very challenging if you don't…Yeah, it's a good game aside from the shitty Kyril soyboy…

Who has done that thus far in this thread? Personally, I don't care whether you go buy the original console or play the game through an emulator. I just use emulators because it's easier to rip a game and then play it rather than go hunting down a system and spending $40-$60 on it. The only people who I can say are fags on the vintage scene are those saying "CRTs are the only 'true' way to play older games" and bitching about how "important" scanlines are. The only time developers took scanlines into consideration was when making light gun games (Because of how the screen refreshes).

Retroarch isn't an emulator, technically. The emulator is still in the core, which contains all the emulation code. Retroarch is a simple windowing layer and rendering API. You could pretty easily use Retroarch as a UI for a game, and load it in as a core. It wouldn't be emulating anything; it would be using Retroarch as a simple UI and timing layer (as well as handling controllers, memory, speed, audio, and various other things through it).
So RetroArch is where I'd suggest somebody just wanting to get something playing, but it's still technically Mupen.

Mupen is primarily developed on and for Linux. Mupen 2, I recall, is more difficult to use, because it's distributed just as a command line program and library now. You need to use something like Retroarch or one of the third-party UIs to have a GUI, and they were all shitty a few years ago. Retroarch really is one of the better options, given that it was one of the bigger motivations for Mupen proceeding without an official GUI.

LibRetro's cores often (as in the case of Mupen) use newer forks with more features and more frequent updates than the standalone mainline branches of the emulator in question.
Also, latency is lower than many standalone emulators, due to other features of LibRetro itself, such as DRM/KMS on Linux, or the upcoming "lagfix" rollback feature.

xbe are the executables of the games
If you're sourcing your XBOX dumps from an HDD ready collection then it(s very easy just launch the default.xbe in the game folder, if there's another xbe then it's very likely some specific part of the game (PD orta has a separate executable for the PD port, NGB has a separate executable for the minigame etc) and you can also try to launch it directly, it might work better than the main game sometimes.
If you're looking at an .iso it depends which type of .iso it is, regular .iso should be extracted through CXBOX tool which will give you the game folder same as the HDD ready dumps
True 1:1 .iso like ones from the Redump set need another tool to extract them (don't remember the name), they're not very practical since they all feature incompressible padding, you're very unlikely to even find those publicly so I wouldn't worry about it.

What has the one to do with the other?

Hence why the PS2 has only one semi-functional emulator and one slowly being developed.

Just because the hardware is apparently simplified does not mean making an emulator is easy. The PS2 and PS3 are magnitudes more complicated machines than the GBA or the SNES. Hell, we don't have 100% accurate emulation of the SNES yet, despite decades of effort by various people.

That isn't the case at all. The real reason Xbox emulation had been dead was because any talent was poached by microsoft and the only people who had been contributing to it didn't really do anything substantial until the last few years.

Yeah, I've gotta object to this, too. Aside from other poster's point about GBA emulation before hardware shipped, also around that period current-gen systems like the N64 & PSX were getting better-than-native emulation, including commercial emulators like CVGS & Bleem! that could play retail games straight off the CD drive. Not to mention that emulators had total coverage of all prior-gen 2D systems with. Late-90s were definitely the peak years for emulation.
The temporary (final) lead consoles gained over PCs with the 6th/7th-gen, and the opening of massive holes (OG XBox, PSP, PS3, 3DS) in emulation coverage for extended periods were a major black eye on emulation. Nearly every major windfall for emulation since has come from Nintendo releasing hardware 1 or 2 gens behind the curve.
Also, for your general argument, wouldn't the availability of 1st-party emulation on newer consoles (Nintendo VC, PS Classics, etc.), or even used games before then, cause the same effect?

iirc its only certain back-end options that are unrelated to the API's. You still need to swap out OpenGL and directx in the graphics options and OpenAL or Xaudio2.

If you read more than one post you would know the answer to this question. This ties into emulation in that when said companies provide their own emulation, and it doesn't sell enough to warrant interest due to a good amount of gamers who would be interested instead emulating it for free, then said companies get a false impression that those games are not a worthwhile market to cater to with new games.

It still needs more work.
But if you have processor equal to Intel i5 with 2.5+ GHz, 16 GB RAM and use canary versions you should be able to play almost every game, unless it has some game specific gamebreaking bugs.
Also Citra is harder to use with keyboard than majority of emulators. Or just my keybinds suck.

I've heard two versions, first is obviously pressure from the rights holder of those roms, especially Nintendo and Sony, second is that Archive simply restricts big archive with lots of traffic (based on the fact that for a time you only had to get an account to bypass restrictions)
Doesn't matter either way since you can get that shit faster elsewhere and verifying roms isn't exactly the hardest shit ever if your source is iffy..

Perhaps a bit of a tangent, but did anybody ever attempt emulators that ran on the 3DS itself for other 3D systems, like PSX, Saturn, N64, 3DO, NDS, or early GLIDE/D3D/OpenGL PC, to exploit the 3DS's autostereo screen?
80dd5b No.14642521
>>14642076
The game needs to support 3D itself. 3DS games render two different images at once at different camera angles to get the 3D effect. A game which only pushes a single image at a time cannot produce a 3D image.
dbeeb6 No.14642699
>>14642521
Not true. I've tinkered with stereo 3D on PC games/emulators (usually red/blue anaglyph), and it's super easy to force stereoscopic output even on games that don't support it, with results varying from perfect to adequate:
1. Actual dual cameras, usually requires game-specific mods, perfect.
2. Geometry transformation, requires scenegraph access, occasional minor clipping artifacts. This is the approach used by Dolphin and most modern "forced stereo" drivers:
https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2015/05/13/a-second-perspective/
3. Depth transformation, merely requires Z-buffer access, good depth but occlusion is noticeably artifacted. Used in most "legacy" stereo drivers.
4. Postprocessing, works on the 2D framebuffer (analyzes motion/perspective/focus), low quality and laggy. Commonly used in TVs & set-tops for "upconversion".

You're confusing framerate with resolution. Stereo mode on the 3DS halves the horizontal resolution from 800 columns to 400, but framerate is uneffected. A number of games, such as Smash, run at 60 FPS in stereo.

VMWare & VirtualBox both have similarly uneven hardware 3D acceleration, that primarily targets D3D9 & OpenGL 2, with anything below or above that not working very well or at all. Fortunately, most games from the D3D8 era and earlier also have software renderers as a fallback.
Really, the state of post-DOS pre-Vista PC retrogaming is abysmal, the most we can hope for is that PCem development picks up, or that the freetards hold their noses long enough to port DLLs from WINE/ReactOS back to Windows.

Emulation's a good way to experience games we might've never got to play. Terranigma / Marvelous / Gimmick! are all good and I suggest you play them. Terranigma is a Zelda-like but more action based. Marvelous is also a Zelda-like but more puzzle based. Both I feel are better than Zelda's action and puzzles in their respective categories. Gimmick! I could recommend alone for it's aesthetic and vibes but there's also a charming platformer underneath. I feel every emulator enthusiast or SNES fan might already know about these, but I don't see much discussion about them. Do me one better and recommend a better obscure SNES title if you can.

I've been keeping personal documentation of games I've been interested in and have been recommended. It's not big, but it does have a lot of older titles. It's enough to get lost in or be a bit much to look at, which is why I've been wanting to convert it into chart form. No tags either makes it difficult to navigate. Best I can do is separate them by system. I've been wanting to make a recommended list of movies and books too. But /tv/ and /lit/ are fags.
GameCube Chart definitely has Reddit written over it. I was surprised it included Animal Crossing and WarioWare, but no Wario World. I feel some sort of rating could be given, like which games you should play first or which could be recommended to fans of the genre or easily recommended to anyone. I came up with a sort of system like that if you're interested in having me explain it.

So I downloaded Cemu 1.11.6b, Breath of the Wild 1.5 with DLC. I have the FPS++, 30fps lock and LWZX crash workaround graphic workaround.
Specs are Ryzen 1600 (not oveclocked), gtx780 and 16GB RAM.
I get this bug where the screen first sort of freezes (the game doesn't) and I go to the save menu and back it is fixed, except it is not. Some textures get fucked, basic texture fuck ups. The game is not very playable in that state. It can happen while just walking around or sometimes after a teleport it seems. Any ideas? Maybe I should try an older Cemu version?

I think that might be caused by the non-separable shader cache,
But first off try the game as close to vanilla as possible with no graphics packs and just the base game + update, if that has any issue then you're already doing something wrong.

>>14679892
Already tried that. Tried going to 1.4.1 version of the game, went as back as Cemu 1.11.1, tried some other graphic packs, no packs, different cemu settings, nvidia settings. Nothing fixes it.

I saw that in someone's Nvidia setting Shader Cache was off and mine was on so I decided to try with that. Played for half an hour (one of the good times when it doesn't happen immediately) and it happened again. God damn it. Other than that the game is very much playable.

You don't seem to know what you're talking about at all, and you seem to actually think intel is better than AMD when it comes to quality.
A CPU outside of an unstable one can't cause those issues, and if that was the case the issues wouldn't be limited to one specific program, if the issue came from the very CPU itself other people would have had the same issue which doesn't seem to be the case if you wanna shill intel you can do so someplace else.

Lakka is reliant on Retroarch so if you plan on using actively developed emulators you'll be left behind.

Nothing actually wrong with the actual hardware, just the proprietary driver being very shit, vast majority of OGL on AMD issues can be fixed by just running the open source drivers,
obviously the problem is easily fixed on the dev side by just going Vulkan, where everyone has shit support so AMD doesn't really stand out.

>Cemu is OpenGL-based
Wait, what!? Never paid that much attention since my machine is way too old to run it, but I always assumed it was Windows-only because DX12 was used before Vulkan's release, like Xenia.
Reading a bit about it on other forums, both "sides" of the discussion seem to be under the bizarre impression that Vulkan/DX12's big benefit would be performance, as opposed to bypassing bugs necessitated by the inherent hackiness of emulation.

CEMU is heavy on the draw calls iirc so yeah it could benefit it globally, it already benefits NGC/Wii very nicely in Dolphin, but for AMD in particular the OGL drivers are just THAT trash.

It would actually be counter-intuitive to run CEMU with an API other than OpenGL. Because the actual WiiU uses OpenGL. And CEMU is basically just recompiling WiiU GL calls
With Dolphin its different, They can afford to use Vulkan or DX because the Gamecube and Wii both used a proprietary graphics API (Simply called "GX" in official documentation.) so it didn't make a difference with development workflow
dbeeb6 No.14694741
>>14694533
Pretty sure the Wii U also had a "GX2" API to be used for more performance intensive titles, while OpenGL is mostly just for shovelware, like the GCN/Wii (and Sony's consoles, which also had their own alternative to OpenGL before Vulkan). This is in addition to what I can only imagine are substantial amounts of direct GPU assembler in hacky console tradition.
