True, but it's still unnerving how all standalone Genesis emulators on Windows are abandoned projects, and closed source to boot so no one could take them over (the other ones are even older than Kega and a lot shittier).
We all know sooner or later the pajeets at Microsoft are going to release an update that breaks it beyond all repair.
Someone really should at least take PicoDrive and build a Windows standalone emulator on it, with an interface similar to Kega, at least we'd have an active, open source emulator. Too bad the emulation cabal autists only care about Nintendo crap, meanwhile we have literally dozens of standalone NES emulators on Windows in active development.

Shills for what? Who do you suspect is being paid to shill a free emulation front-end?
>>16055657
No. The emulation code is identical. It's all about the interface. Retroarch allows you access to a lot of shaders for things that you might like which work across any core, and give you a consistent interface across emulators, but because of it trying to be a general emulation front-end, certain specific things are a pain in the ass (one instance I can think of is that it's not possible to assign one one button to multiple inputs, which I would like to do for a lot of N64 games).
If independent does what you want in a better or more convenient way, stick with that. You use retroarch if you want:
* Consistent controller handling
* Cross-emulator shaders
* All your emulators and games available via one interface
* Retroarch's UI in particular (particularly useful if you are setting it up for an HTPC, because you can always navigate the entire UI with only a controller)
Other than those things, it doesn't matter what you use. The netplay code is different as well, so you're best off experimenting to see which works best. It's all Free and Open Source, so you should always try both and use what works for you, and check once or twice a year to see if updates have turned the tables.

>>16055856
>Yeah, it's not like other emulators like puNES and Snes9x allow shaders.
Yes they do. I didn't say they didn't. I said RetroArch gives consistent shader handling that lets you reuse the same shaders across different emulators. Why the fuck are you arguing against something I never said?
> It's sub-menus, upon sub-menus, upon sub-menus…you need fucking map to navigate that mess of an interface.
That's not what "consistent" means. The settings navigation is a mess. Accessing your games is selecting a game and starting it, and then the quick-menu is the same for any game and system except for the emulation-specific options menu. The interface isn't the best, but it is consistent.
> Doesn't higan and Mednafen already support multiple systems, and does well?
Yes, they are multi-system emulators, Retroarch is not. Retroarch is an emulation front-end for emulation cores. Different goals. Higan and Mednafen cores are also available for RetroArch because they have different goals.
> Every single controller is different.
You configure your game-pad, and it works with the default controls for every emulator. You can configure it for by-emulator and by-game if you'd like, but the point is that you are capable of configuring once and using it everywhere.
> See the above point about puNES and Snes9x.
puNES and Snes9x do not have cross-emulator shaders. You've completely ignored the qualifier.
> You do know that you can use programs like Launchbox, make custom BAT files, or use Ice to add games to your Steam library (But, then again, only fags use Steam anyway)
I do. What's your point? I never said that RetroArch is the only thing that does it, only that it does it.

I can. Git gud, queer.
>>16055860
>it seems like a massive waste of time for both the devs and users
Its primary goal is just to save time for devs. The main point is that programmers making an emulator can ignore and skip developing a UI, controller handling, most of the audio handling, huge portions of the rendering core, shader handling, and most of save state handling. Libretro is a development API first and foremost. As a programmer who has targetted Libretro, it's way nicer than hand-cobbling the controller handling, audio handling, rendering context, and a UI in Win32, Qt, Gtk, GLFW, SFML, or SDL. Programming a functioning NES emulator, it's not uncommon for three quarters of your code to be just UI shit that you don't want to have to do.

Oh, that's right. It's ironic that you bring that up, because they both use RetroArch shaders now. They didn't in the past. Yes, RetroArch is so shitty that both emulators you suggest have switched to using their technology.

"shill" means paid marketer. You really think I'm being paid by them? I don't have anything to lose, because I don't program targetting Libretro anymore (emulator programming isn't actually all that fun in the long term).

Over a year ago, they were as optimized as they were ever going to get. Talking to the crew on GBAtemp back then in regards to the 3DS version, the only way that they could increase the performance and optimization would be to scrap everything from the past 4 years (2-3 back then) and start over from scratch, or tell folks deal with it and buy a New 3DS. Meanwhile, PicoDrive and Snes9x independent get released and blow RetroArch out of the water with no slowdowns on a regular 3DS (Unless you're playing Sega CD FMVs or SuperFX games).

Well I'm a winfag so building stuff from source is such a fucking massive pain in the ass that anything else is better including setting up a buildbot, supposedly setting travis / appveyor for a github repo is very simple and it works automagically so that's why I'm suggesting it, thing is it needs to be your repo so that's why you have to fork it.

He's just being a shitter, he does the same shit every so often, maybe the wiki admin will just start putting out builds to replace m64p, he's pretty cool when it comes to those things, without him PCSXR would be stuck in limbo and the WM+ build of Dolphin would be lost to time and completely outdated.

Doesn't have the same pad, and if you immediately dismissed it how can you know any of its merits when your experience is according to yourself using it and then immediately discarding it.

For any 2D games, pic related. Super Nintendo has one of the best controllers in general. It can also work for modern games because of the 2 joysticks and 2 shoulder buttons and 2 triggers. Haven't been disappointed by it yet, at least on PC. It can also work for Switch and mobile, haven't tried mobile yet, but sometimes it takes too long to connect to Switch.
Playing 3D games with it isn't that bad either, fairly comfortable for me at least. But I won't pretend it's perfect and that better options don't exist.

From the looks of it, the biggest flaw is just the shape. It lacks the "handles" of the playstation/xbox/gamecube controllers, which I expect makes it more unstable, awkward to hold, and especially harder to use the shoulders. Considering the dpad is basically the same thing, why not just use a playstation controller of some kind?

The original Classic Controller was designed the exact same way. That's why I advise going for the CCP.
>Considering the dpad is basically the same thing, why not just use a playstation controller of some kind?
It isn't, and don't be fooled to think that it is. Though, if you do go for a dualshock, I remember hearing that you should get the original first and second gen models. I can only account for the DS3 that it does indeed suck.
>>16090206

So because I express the "wrong" opinion, gained from my own experience, of a "universally accepted" opinion which comes from anonymous sources, my entire argument is dismissed?

Your picture says otherwise. The Saturn used the same pad as the Genesis. Now let's move onto something which I think you haven't really addressed: Do you dislike D-pads that are crosses instead of discs? Answering that would solve a lot more.
382afc No.16093889
>>16090204
If you have no problem holding a Super Nintendo controller, there should be no problems with that. It's actually surprisingly more comfortable than it looks. The joysticks are spaced out more than on the Classic Controller and the controller itself isn't as thing and flimsy to hold. As someone who absolutely hates the Classic Controller, even the ones with handles, I highly enjoy this modern Super Nintendo replica.
2D games is where it shines though. It's absolutely perfect for Super Nintendo emulation considering it's the same only with a slightly varied layout.
I have yet to experience a controller I enjoy more than the Super Nintendo's.

I like both, even segmented ones. The Saturn one is just the best one.
5a8e07 No.16094264
>>16093896
Now, that's what I disagree with. I don't like using the "disc" D-pads because it feels like the it's "too loose" in control or the textured cross on the discs messes with the flow of changing input. To be fair, I haven't tried the Neo Geo control pad, so I don't know how that compares, but all my experiences with discs, thus far, haven't given me a good impression. With regular cross D-pads, the ones that I have tried, and liked, belong to the Wiimote, CCP, DS Lite, and PSP. The ones I have tried and didn't like have been the DS3 (Too stiff and solid), the Dreamcast controller (Too much height), the GC controller (Just feels cheap all together), the 3DS (Servicable but too restricted, ironically), and the Wii U gamepad (A bit too tall).

>I'm not sure what you're doing but I've never had to remap much
Probably since you never unplug your controllers or put new ones in. Meanwhile every fucking time I play on my friend's retro-pie, we have to rebind controllers when one of us plugs a new one in and Niggerarch decides the new controller should be the controlling the interface. And that's usually after when putting new roms on it and some never get detected.

Because it's barely enough and I fail to see anything justifying needing that, chankast had WinCE running on 2010 mid end hardware, even Demul itself wasn't anywhere near that bad in earlier versions prior to WinCE support, so there's obviously a performance issue, and considering the dev left basic function such as disk swapping and savestates completely broken for about a year it's fairly obvious there's something not being done that could be

"Playable", meaning you'll get various issues and poor performance but a large chunk will play well enough to be realistically completeable provided you have a fairly decent PC (2500k @ 4+Ghz and something in the ballpark of a 750ti but bigger is better up until something like a 980ti)
If you have a good CPU with more than 4 core (5960X, 8700k etc) the vast majority of games will play just fine in SW mode with only a very small chunk of games still being an issue.
As for TWoC I assume you mean the Crash game which iirc might have issue but nothing completely gamebreaking just the usual broken effect.
You can always try Dolphin for that game in particular.

Is there a way to fix Portrait of Ruin's audio crackling in DeSmuME? I thought it might be a problem with the emulator but I ran a few other roms and it's only happening for PoR.

Have you tried messing with the emulation settings? I know I had to play with them to get the opening in Lux-Pain to play the audio correctly.

DC with Demul is fine, although ive only tested capcom, arc system and snk fightan games with it. The only games from that list ive had a problem with are the US releases of Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, US release of KOF 99, and SPF2X matching service. Either fps drops or grahpical glitches that are major

I have. I turned off Advanced Bus-Level Timing, set the dynamic recompiler to 15, and set the Synchronization mode back to Dual, and I guess that fixed the crackling, or at least minimized it enough that it's not noticeable. It seems like it's running a little shittier than Dawn of Sorrow, but maybe that's just a problem with the game itself.

Xaudio2 just made it worse, and I don't think changing to to Cosine made a difference. It looks like the crackling is limited to ambience and FMV audio, but the strangest part is that opening up an options window and canceling out of it stops the crackling. I have no idea what to make of this so I'm just gonna roll with it, I guess.

First, you're a fag for thinking that because I'm pretty certain that just all of us have our computers hooked up to a television, so you'd be sitting in a chair in the first place. Not a couch.
Second, how is having an "all in one" application more "convent" than just having the different apps with the way you just described it?
<Playing games on my 3DS, I am already able to "sit on the couch and flip through all of my emulators and games with my controller", and all the software actually fucking works without any problems or slowdowns.

Fuck that shit. I have used many different systems before - Windows, Mac, Linux, Amiga, OS/2, BeOS - and no interface ever left me so absolutely stumped the way Retroarch does. Nothing about it seems to work like I would ever expect anything to work. Everything is just wrong.

What's even richer is that the PPSSPP "console GUI" does exactly what Retroarch is attempting to do AND IT DOES IT BETTER!

I'll admit I really like the classic rgui Retroarch interface and never had a problem with it. It's simple and to the point, perfect to use not only with a gamepad but also solely with the keyboard without a mouse You just have to remap the interface function buttons because the default layout is completely retarded.

N3DS, you can inject SNES roms and have them work flawlessly, the emulator is also great in case you need cuck shit like cheats and savestates, the Vita really shouldn't be emulating more than PSP and PS1.

The two standalone emulators this >>16107698 guy mentioned, FPSE for PS1, PPSSPP for PSP and Drastic for DS this one in particular is really fucking good, worth the $5 but try to pirate it, word of advice: none of the "cracked/pirated" apk's work, there are only two ways you can pirate drastic, one is by getting the latest release from apk pure/wherever you want and using lucky patcher to get the full version for free, the other is asking someone who bought drastic to back it up with titanium backup and restoring it on your device with the same app.

Ultimate ninja heroes 2 is the best; large roster, most polished gameplay UNH3 went for an arena shitfest ala smash, the other game is a 3D beat em up ala senran kagura, the arcade is short but good and has a secret boss if you don't die and use the ultimate arts to finish every fight, and lastly the story mode is a 100 floor actually 200 floor, once you reach the top and fight the boss she tells you it's all a ruse and leaves, now you have to do it all over again but this time there are very few items laying around, no shortcuts and the enemies always have 2x attack and 2x speed at the very least survival tower mode that has you fight against random "possessed" characters in order to progress, you can pick up boosting/healing items if you deviate from the path or even find shortcuts that warp you to a higher floor, it's pretty good for a portable shonenshit game.

You gave him a bunch of emulators he didn't ask for. And is probably long forgotten about the thread.
That said there is at least one pirated version of Drastic that I have and it works perfectly fine. Well, not completely perfect. It is a little wonky about loading save states, but once you learn its trickery you can have them work too (basically they don't work except if you start the game by the continue button and then you can load in any other save state too).

The way it handles combat is pretty unique. Instead of moving next to an enemy to attack them, you move through them. So if you've got a unit with 6 movement and 5 enemies grouped up next to them, you can move through and attack all 6 enemies.

I've done extensive PS2 emulation. I have an upper-mid range PC (i.e. My PC was high end at one point but time has moved forward) and 99% of the games I've cared to try could be made playable. Most games can actually be upscaled & made to look extra nice without a noticeable drop in performance, given you have a nice enough PC of course.
When you first boot up a game in PCSX2 it might be semi broken but their compatibility wiki is very actively maintained and it features the specific settings you need to use to get the best results for every game. Should you run into problems just go ask them there.

Mednafen is super fucking easy to use. Literally just drop the rom onto the exe. Press F1 for the barebones menu/options. It's literally all you need. The GUI add-ons are just for people intimidated by things they're not familiar with.
