Is there any hope for Switch emulation? Did sending ninjas to assassinate the emulation devs really help Nintendo at all?

who fucked up the nintendo ds bios section in the wikiwhat happened to all the other options
>>563591245You'll need something with composite/S-video in it to blend the dithering.Try the guest-avanced-NTSC/ The Retro Crisis one or the Sonkun ones. Then, it's a matter of how much "I can't see shit" you can handle.
>>563596542>guest-avanced-NTSC/ The Retro Crisis one or the Sonkun onesGood choice for the fully 240p systems (NES/SNES etc), but don't bother for the "High-Res/PSX 480i" content if you're on a 1080p SDR display.The wiki warns against them for a reason: 1080p doesn't have enough vertical resolution to properly render TVL/scanlines and masks simultaneously without massive moiré patterns or crushing the brightness. On an SDR panel without local dimming, you can't compensate for the brightness lost from the mask and TVL/scanline simulation.https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Shaders,_presets_and_filters#Display_Hardware_Requirements
>>563596889The more I look at it, the more I thing all that shader craze is just a psy-ops to make us buy overpriced monitor. Also, Sonkun worked like a charm for the Saturn, blending that stupid checkboard patern, smoothing the jaggies a little without darkening, bluring the shit out of the image. Something the precious SDTV preset was not even able to do.As for PSX, I have still some testing to do.
after testing retroarch for the last couple of days i think i prefer standalone emulators
>>563598828>all that shader craze is just a psy-ops to make us buy overpriced monitorit’s sub-pixel math. You’re trying to fit a 400-TVL phosphor mask into 1080 horizontal lines. You literally do not have enough physical pixels to "draw" the mask and the image signal at the same time without massive moiré patterns or uneven scaling. It looks like dogshit because your hardware is the bottleneck, not because the wiki is a scam.The other killer is SDR. Any decent mask or scanline shader works by "turning off" or darkening roughly 50-70% of your screen to simulate the gaps. Your 1080p office monitor maxes out at maybe 300 nits. Cut that to 50 nits (globally) and you’re looking at a dim, muddy mess that looks nothing like a real tube.You need 4K+ for the density to align the mask properly (for 480 content), and you need HDR/OLED with proper dimming for the brightness headroom to lose 70% of your light and still have a punchy image.The choices are simple:Cope: Keep using raw pixels on your 1080p panel and pretend it looks "accurate enough".Scavenge: Find a $20 SDTV on Marketplace that handles 240p/480 natively. Just avoid "HD CRTs" and VGA monitors if you want the actual consumer look.Pay up: Buy a high-end display if you want the shader math to actually work. I don't recommend it though, fuck hyperconsumerism.
Another day another rpcs3 regression.
To the anon on the last thread that posted that pixeldrain on a screenshoot for a new PGS stand-alone build... You are a retarded nigger, you compiled a debug build not a release build so it can work if you don't have VSstudio installed because of some missing DLL, recompile it again properly.
>>563601016It's time for Refraction to merge it and end this mickey mouse bullshit.>NOOOO I'm getting mogged and bulled by a Vulkan engineer doing actual, meaningful work to the projectEat fuck, faggot. Merge it.
>>563599283>The choices are simpleor maybe use that SDTV preset for 480 content. I guess it doesn't try to simulate TVL, scanlines, or masks; it focuses on cable and signal aspects (w/ NTSC filters and shiet), interlaced flicker, gamma, and level remapping, along with some bezel and overlay effects etc etc.This is your only option if you don't have a capable display but still want to simulate the characteristics of a 480p system.

>>563599283I don't care. I'm not afraid of Pixels compared to many here. I just don't like very specific dithering pattern that I find far more ugly that some jaggies. Perfect exemple of that would be the walls of the manor in Clock Tower or everytime the Saturn try to do a transparency effect. So I'm only interested in a shader that can allow that kind of blending.Also, CRT shaders are useful only for 2D, for everything 3D upscaling/uprezing is always the superior choice.
>>563602654GSdx discord kitten sweeping it up for daddy.
>>563601640Your SDTV preset fail to blend the checkboard pattern on saturn game and bleach everything on screen. Thus, it's useless.
>>563603296>for everything 3D>I don't care>I just don't like very specific dithering patternIn that case, you should probably just use an NTSC or PAL signal shader (same shit with SDTV preset). Why bother with scanline and mask simulations? They aren't even accurate for 480i/p content anyway.https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Dithering#Shaders:~:text=Use%20a%20blurring%20or%20NTSC%20composite%20shader
>>563603478Yeah, I'm actually going to remove that Ymir preset in the next update. I agree, it doesn't look good.
>>563602798>>game's chock full of BDSM sex pervert shit, homoerotic imagery and bisexual colorsidk that sounds like Final Fight to me
How in the hell is Final Fight nearly as overt as Paprium, which had a marketing campaign gayer than Cho Aniki with some weird muscle faggot, was bundled with said character's speedo in the box, has dildos and a bunch of Mr Slave tier dudes in game, and all sorts of fruity colors everywhere? The one tranny no one would know about if it wasn't for the concept art? I can't believe people paid for something so grimy and weird.(You)
>>563605582Yeah that sounds pretty bad and definitely worse than Final Fight, but you're still downplaying how gay Final Fight was.There was a lot of weird gay shit in vidya in the late 90s and early 2000s.

I must be one of like a dozen people outside of Japan to get it working in an emulator. I posted my progress here some threads ago.
Man captcha is taking forever to load, it was okay before the "maintenance".
>>563586738It can't even emulate SNES at full speed unless you use an ancient, buggy, low compatibility version of snes9x with broken audio, so i imagine PS1 emulation isn't going to happen.
>>563602798I hate retro throwback media that uses """synthwave""" music.80s synth music was not that gay. It was kino. Synthwave is a product of modern times, and it sucks so much.>>563587925I stopped seeing screen tearing when i discovered what vsync and triple buffering does while using zsnes and nesticle in 1998.Also to answer your question - no.
>>563591245I played silent hill on an atrocious hand-me-down CRT in 2000. You had to turn it on and leave it on for about 20 mins for the tubes to warm up and the screen to become visible.The PS1 was hooked up with an RF cable.You could still see the dithering clearly."blending dithering" with composite is a fucking meme. If you want to get rid of dithering, you have to lower the signal bandwidth (increase the blur) until it's gone. There's a shader called TV Out Tweaks that does just that. You have to set the horizontal blur/bandwidth/resolution to 160 to blend dithering. There is some collateral damage though - It's blurry as fuck, it makes everything look shit, it fucks up text, the entire screen looks awful, etc, but hey, at least SOME of your dots will be smeared together.Your best bet is to just get used to it.
>>563624085just use duckstation with default graphics settings and built-in ntsc adaptive shader
>>563624085Or check the option in Duckstation to just get ride of it... or scale it in HD.

>>563631681To be fair that's just effective use of the hardware, but if the game calls for uneven terrain the shiturn's performance is fucked unless the dev has XL2 tier optimization skills.
>>563633852>that split in half PS2+CRT conceptThat's so fucking retarded looking lmfao. Well memed. >>563584803This actually looks pretty good, but I would never sacrifice this much of the screen for this for a real play session.Bezels just seem good for webms more than anything honestly. I don't know what kind of sick freak would play a game like this on purpose. Any time I play one of those arcade ports with borders? That shit gets turned off first thing. You DO know the only reason the Super Gameboy had them was because the SNES couldn't scale the Gameboy's resolution to full screen without issues, and they wanted to do something with all the blank space on screen, right? See for yourself. Try to get a Gameboy emulator working with integer scaling in progressive mode on an NTSC 15khz TV. The native 160x144 resolution won't work without a 240p container/being shrunk, and 320x288p won't work without rolling or cutoff, and the SNES sure as shit wasn't gonna hardware scale it to 480i with bilinear filtering. So the whole reason we have these stupid copes to begin with was because the SNES just couldn't fullscreen GB games.
Kek it was obvious this slow fat-ass wasn't the last boss.The real deal is a bitch, i'm gonna change my build to use missiles and see i can deal with it.
>>563624085I dunno how much of what you perceived as dithering was PS1's lack of texture filtering + aliasing or an actual dithering pattern across the screen. That RF wouldn't blur it significantly is doubtful. The composhit meme is real, to an extent anyway. The waterfalls wouldn't work if it didn't.
Is RPCS3 a lot better recently? I tried it a few months ago and it crashed on literally every game almost immediately. I looked up recommended settings and all that, Tekken 5 ran fine but every other game I tried either wouldn't load, crashed in the menus, or crashed after a very short period of gameplay. Pretty much all the games I played were allegedly among the more stable ones too. Eventually I ragequit out of the whole thing and uninstalled it after way too much fucking around for almost no reward. I'm using Linux Mint on a Legion 7 laptop with a 3080, 32gb ram, ryzen 9, so it should be comfortably good enough hardware. I ask because I've seen a lot of stuff saying it has drastically improved in recent months and now is stable on at least half the catalogue. But people were saying shit like that before I initially tried it too. Is it actually better now? Is my experience normal? Because I see people raving about it and yeah I'm sure it's a great technical achievement to even get it to that level, but I don't see how anybody could recommend it to anyone even for novelty value based on the experience I had. But the same people raving about it will say 'yeah it will always crash eventually on every game lol you can't expect it to actually WORK'. Weird stuff. What's been your experience with it?
>>563636134I DID IT!Also i just take a look at Mathias and kek yeah i gonna need to make a new build from scratch for that.
Remember when emulators used to be developed in private and devs only teased WIP screenshots
>>563640749>devs only teased WIP screenshotsI swear a modern emu still does that, it's called "RPCSX" or something.
I need 2 more Ymir bugs
>>563631027NTA but Radiant Silvergun looks absolutely outstanding on Saturn and i'm not convinced it could run that well on the PS1.There are a couple of examples of 3d games looking better on ps1, i've never heard of Street Racer being used as an example though.
Looks this time the "maintenance" actually work.
>>563637815>Is my experience normal?Not the constant crashing, that is something on your part.Probably the laptop gpu.But yes, Rpcs3 is a piece of shit is prone to crashing.And it is getting worse with regressions and them not even fixing any errors if they don't actually have the hardware type of the report.
Apparently is taking some time for to post, maybe because everyone is trying to at the same time.
You need 5K (2880p) to get anywhere close to emulating mask pitch of a Trinitron. Even more for shadow mask.
>>563645340Depends on the Trinitron. A BVM (what I assume is the first image in your pic), yeah maybe, but a consumer-line TV should be much more doable with lower resolutions.
is there any point in using shaders on a laptop with a 1366x768 screen?
>>563651494Probably not a CRT shader, but something like sharp-bilinear might still be OK.
>>5636514281080p isn't even optimal for 240p, regardless of TVL. It's "doable" at best, but for 480i/p? Not a chance. On top of that, you need HDR and some kind of local dimming.https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Shaders,_presets,_and_filters#Display_Hardware_Requirements
>>563653972Yeah, 1080p is definitely a non-starter for 480-line resolutions, but for 240p it's passable enough. It can simulate 540 and 360 TVL Trinitrons using 2-pixel and 3-pixel masks respectively, which roughly correspond to mid-range displays. Again, not ideal, but it can definitely work. It will, of course, require some kind of brightness compensation, so in a way it is cope, but well, if you're still stuck on 1080p in current year, you kinda have to do that regardless.1440p is, I think, where it gets pretty swell, still not ideal, but nice enough where I think you can be satisfied unless you're hellbent on getting as close to the CRT experience as physically possible without an actual CRT. This resolution lets you go up to 720 TVL, which is very nice if you're shooting for a high-end PVM look, but it can go down to 360 TVL if you want a more consumer look, while doing it better than at 1080p. And here, I think, slot masks actually also become viable.
I was reading the No Intro wiki about their naming conventions and I think not even Sonic fan wikis have this autismo.
>>563654952I'm not even a BVM/PVM Pro broadcast CRT fetishist. I don't care about high TVL; I don't like that "barcode" look, and I never had it growing up anyway, so there's no nostalgia there for me. I don't care about RGB or S-Video either, most of us used Composite (or RF for older systems) back in the day.But like you said, it’s still not an "optimal" setup. It doesn't look great even for 240p content. 1440p is fine for 240p, but it still falls short for 480i/p. Resolution is only one piece of the puzzle; you really need per-pixel emission and high enough luminance to make it work.At this point, just use an actual SDTV or EDTV for 480p/i systems. Or, just drop the mask and scanline filters entirely and use presets like SDTV one on the wiki. No point in dropping thousands of bucks on a digital toy with a two-year lifespan.I’m just hoping we eventually see proper analog signal emulation instead of just trying to simulate that with post-processing shaders.https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Shaders,_presets,_and_filters#Full_Signal_&_Cable_Emulation
>>563657289Indeed, at this point, the monitor itself is the key to everything. Even a 4K monitor will eat shit authenticity-wise if it's one of those cheap panels that can't go above 400 nits or so.Still, if you are OK with a bit of cope, 480-line content IS doable even at 1440p. You just have to besmirch any semblance of scanlines and just focus on emulating the mask and fiddling with parameters to mitigate the hit to brightness, which shouldn't take much since you're not dealing with scanline gaps at all. Here's a lazy first attempt with a preset I already had on hand for 240p content, just adjusting so that it doesn't trigger interlacing and to reduce some vertical blur.
>>563639796A funny thing, of all the AC of the Arena, MAthias is the only one who always know where you are. You can't hide from him.
>>563658965I used that scene for my demo as well lmao. Did you use any signal/cable/NTSC shder? It looks way too sharp (talking about the framebuffer output, not the shader). Did you increase the internal resolution in the emulator or something?
>>563659408>Did you use any signal/cable/NTSC shder?Nope, it's using guest-crt-advanced-fast only.>Did you increase the internal resolution in the emulator or something?No, it's using the software renderer, though deinterlacing patches are on, so maybe that has something to do with the increased sharpness.

>>563645340Good enough, 1440p
Why is PPSSPP the only emulator with actual texture scaling?You figure something like PCSX2 should be able to add it pretty easily since they have all the code to support texture packs. It feels like you could just vibe code this into the emulator in an afternoon by pointing the AI at the way PPSSPP does it.
>>563584531Yes, I saw another anonymous user's recommendation in another thread and decided to test it myself. There really is an updated version of Sudachi on archive.org, available only for Windows. I confess I was quite surprised, as it ran my games with the latest update without any problems.
>>563668043With 1440p you can emulate most systems in integer scale in full screen, right?

>>563668043now try pcsx2
Is there anywhere I can read up on how complete redump and no-intro sets actually are? I mean officially released games obviously because the aftermarket crap is never going to end
>>563633852what's your setup anyway? PGS on RA? or pcsx2 with reshade?also nice laser build
Anyone got no interlacing patches for the FMA games?
>>563674076none of the built-in PCSX2 deinterlacing methods working?
>>563673884That's just a bezel preset from duimon mega bezel pack.I use PGS on RA as my main.
>>563674281They're all just variations of ghosted and blurry.
>>563674915If none of those work and there’s no patch available in the repository https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2_patchesthen you’re probably cooked. You can't solve dithering or interlacing problems with post-processing shaders.
Not strictly emulation related but redump seems to have no standards when it comes to pc dumps.Alien vs predator 2 primal hunt second cd is broken and can't be installed. And guess which version is used for ALMOST ALL of the iso you can find on the web minus the obscure russian sites?Fucking clowns, i am gonna have to recheck manually every console game as well now.
>>563624085I just use composite on my crt and have the sharpness turned down a bit.
>>563674915PS2 games are meant to be blurry.
>>563676496That guy’s issue isn't actually hardware-accurate behavior, you shouldn't be seeing that blur from the deinterlacing method. But yeah, PS2 rendering pipeline was naturally blurry to begin with (+448i and composite signal blur etc)
>>563674879I see, ty I'll check the bezel pack
>>563644820Why wouldn't it, exactly? It's not that polygonally dense of a game and the PS1 can move plenty of sprites (as polygons) around. Maybe some of the larger 2D backgrounds would need to be nerfed, or a raster effect might need to get cut as seen in Silhouette Mirage or Mega Man 8 from Sat to PS1. It would run fine.
>>563679469nta but Thunderforce V had way less going on in term of 2D sprites and layers and yet the PSX version still couldn't run it without massive cuts to the 2D assets and removed a lot of effects and it looks very off in most of the game. There's no way Radiant would have looked anywhere near as good. I still wish it was ported, the gameplay would have been the same anyway and I would have played it sooner if it was on psx.
>>563645259Sega's 16bit era was weird.They made all these amazing arcade games and then didn't port them to the megadrive or saturn.Instead, they made home versions that were different and not as good.Examples are: Shadow DancerEswatMoonwalkerRevenge of Death Adderetc.
>>563645340You need millions of hz to simulate the electron beam accurately too.
>>563675207What happens? Is this due to securom?That's why you download scene releases and clones from torrminatorr.
>>563679919I think Thunderforce uses more VDP2 raster/mode7-y shit than RSG and to be fair I think more talented/less lazy hands could have ported it more faithfully. Not to say anything of Saturn's library but the hardware just isn't great and even its 2D edge isn't massive. It can do raster tricks like heat haze and refraction/water warp better, and it can have some slightly larger backgrounds in memory, but that's it. You have to keep in mind, the MO back then was to just cut it if the other platform didn't have the hardware feature, instead of recreating it for the other machine. In defense of the Saturn on the topic of 90s port quality: SOTN could have been much better on the Saturn if it was more adeptly retooled for it and wasn't handed to the C-team chucklefucks in Nagoya. Oh no, don't just expand the viewport for a native Saturn resolution like a human, frickin' scale the assets and bake in terrible aliasing everywhere.
It's been two days, jan-jans, unclog this fucking toilet.
>>563680809Revenge of the Death Adder was a 32bit game and would have required the 32x at the least for a passable, but not great, port. System 18, which most of those were on, were generally ballsier than the Megadrive, faster CPU, better video hardware, but yeah... probably could have gotten a little bit closer to arcade on some of those, anyway. IMO Shadowdancer MD is better.

What a weird and pointless project. I distinctly remember a Godot remake existing already, and it was JHDev2006's SMB1R. It's a neat novelty having an expanded view for the SMB Deluxe content, but I find SMB1R's physics too NSMB-like for my tastes. Gonna stick to emulating the original on Mesen.

so i have been emulating on this old laptopis it just me or are retroarch cores slower than the standalone emulators?
>>563728482>uncultured swine??If you’re implying I should just use a VGA CRT, that doesn't actually solve the interlacing or dithering issues with emulation. You either need the original hardware on an actual SDTV, or a proper internal fix. PP Shaders don't cut it.
>>563728721yes, bloatarch is bad
nons, I need your advice.What's the budget yer good way to emulate up to 5th gen while displaying on a CRT?A MiSTer?

>>563730618>that doesn't actually solve the interlacingIt does if you run it at an interlaced resolution idiot.
RPCS3 now fetches settings automatically from the wiki
>>563735736I don't think the 360 can output 240p.
>>563719494Use a 15khz CRT, apply a shader externally, or make a feature request for mesh blending and/or shaders.
>>563708185
>>563735796Nigga, calm down.-> MOST <- VGA CRTs do not -> natively <- support interlaced scan modes. On top of that, an emulator's framebuffer output doesn't function like a raw analog signal; you can't simply toggle an 'interlaced' resolution mode and expect it to resolve the internal interlacing artifacts of a PCSX2 game on a VGA monitor.You are missing the fundamental point: software emulation on a PC doesn't interface with hardware that way. Simply forcing an interlaced resolution in Windows won't magically transform a high-frequency PC monitor into a low-frequency consumer TV. Because the emulator renders to a digital buffer, you will never achieve the authentic phosphor bleed or the specific 'combing' effect produced by original hardware. To truly address interlacing and dithering on a VGA CRT, you must use the emulator’s internal deinterlacing solution and blending algorithm/methods. Relying on the monitor's physical scan method is a misunderstanding in your case; any other 'fix' is just a hack that fails to address how the software actually processes the image.
>>563736338Request to who?
I don't want to work anymore. I just want to falsely report problems all day and self-fulfill prophecies of emudevs being malignant like a zionist rat.
>>563736656Guess you're screwed then.
>>563737060>le pretend I don't know what you're talking aboutThis is what a leftist does in discourse. I know you're not a fan of that kind of person, yet here you are acting like one. The Ymir dev obviously, if you're that retarded and forgot what we were talking about like a goldfish.
>>563736656(cont.)Unless PCSX2 has a low-level way to bypass the host OS display stack and interact directly with the analog output timing (kinda like CRT emudriver but it should be built-in), which the devs will never bother with.Modern GPUs and APIs abstract the hardware. The emulator doesn't 'see' your CRT in that way; it sees a virtual canvas. By the time that image reaches your VGA monitor, the 'fields' have already been mangled by the framebuffer logic. Even with CRT Emudriver, you're just seeing a pre-processed image already. You can't fix that at the monitor level.>>563737440Pretty much. Until they develop better algorithms that can actually fix it properly, we're stuck with these half-measure fixes like 'no-interlace' patches. The current deinterlacing methods just aren't good enough.
>>563710669Every Godot game or project I've tried feels like it's loosely held together by Elmer's glue and popsicle sticks.
>>563741325I was playing dome keeper (godot game) with my overclocked gpu and I press F to use a gadget and it literally shut down my computer, twice.and the game shutters like a bitch when compiling shaders, it's a fucking pixel art game.

>>563744637They'll just rely on workarounds like no-interlace patches or 'half-assed' algorithms such as MA, until they find a better solution/algorithm worth baking into the emulator. It makes sense, as they have to prioritize more crucial tasks with their limited "resources".

I refuse to believe no one between the game engine, OS, and GPU can find a way to accelerate shaders despite it being a woe even normies have known about for years now.
>>563746465Some guy explained it in his blog sometimes ago, we're still using shaders like it was the early 2000's, problem is shaders where lightweights thing back then. With today muh UE5 graphics and muh low-level API, shaders are bloated things that can't be compiled seamlessly anymore unless you recode the whole way we do shader or we stop wanting more and more photorealistic graphics, but the GPU manufacturers will never allow that (Even if the IA is now their main customer, not the PC gamers).

I think later versions of Godot use Vulkan and have some shader comp/async built in but of course the Cruelty Squad faggots don't use it.

>>563754898>löveOf course, how could I forget that engine!? There was an incredibly soulful Pac-Man remake made on that engine that goes above and beyond any remake I've played thus far. (It goes out of its way to not only include mazes from official Pac-Man games, but also various clones, hacks, and fangames.) It's only in the demo phase so far, but from what's available, it's REALLY good.

Man, feature creep is real. Every time I think to myself, "my Windows/DOS pack is just about done," I think of something else to add, change, or tweak to make it a teensy bit better. I've been told that it's not a good idea to have DirectX 8.1 on Windows 98, since it can lead to some compatibility issues, so I tested a utility to remove it and install DirectX 7.0a instead. So far it looks to be working perfectly, but more testing is needed, as we all know how Windows 9x can quickly become unstable when you take shit out and put other shit in that wasn't present in the original installation. And I'm still not done testing the DOS stuff, either. I also feel like I could add just a couple more games... it never ends.

turn off the lights, room goes pitch black, fire up the Trinitron SDTV, the high-voltage 'thump' resonates in my chest, look at the screen: it’s not just a flat image, it’s three electron guns firing a stream of particles at 20,000 volts, hitting the aperture grille with microscopic precision, the phosphors glow with a depth that makes the sprites look like 3D jewels, motion is so fluid it feels like looking through a window, not at a screen, realize we traded this literal miracle of physics for "thinness" and motion blur, cultural stagnation all the way, we're cooked.https://youtu.be/sj1fBCCK72QAAIIIYY AAIIIYYY
>>563734316MisterPi or an ewastebox + legacy AMD card (I can vouch for a 7870) + vga-to-component transcoder (~$40) + GroovyArcade (Arch Linux distro designed around CRTs... prepare to talk to LLMs and devs on Discord to get it working how you want) are the best ways to go about it. I have both hooked up. The ewaste setup will run 6th gen and even PGS at native res, but machines without run ahead will be a frame or two slower than Mister and you'll be fucking with it a lot more. Mister is far less fiddly and runs equivalent to about +1 runahead Retroarch setups, but you're limited to 5th gen. That said, it has some moments where it'll outshine current Saturn emulators, or even PS1 emulators, but they are very few and into "ciggy-core" territory. Both routes will cost you about the same unless you have the parts for the PC on hand. MisterPi is reasonably priced at $170 or so for the full version the addons you want. For composite + MisterPi you'll want this https://is.gd/VekgTL or similar. You'll need a different transcoder on PC for composite, the VGA-to-component one won't work.On PC, you WILL need a transcoder + analog-out card to get lagless 240p out instead of 480i. If you cheap out and use a simple converter or card with RCA/svid out, you won't get the desired results.
>>563775957[cont]GroovyArcade does have 240p out support for analog Intel and Nvidia cards/motherboards, but it's a bit dicier overall. You could also just use CRTemudrivers + Windows but it's limited to AMD, and in my experience it's just not as fleshed out as GroovyArcade. Changing display types between 15khz and 31khz or 31khz + 120hz if you're using a VGA monitor and a TV isn't as graceful.

>>563846480>Man, you're still playing that game?Aaa naive summer child...
>>563846641I know the series lol, I love the game too btw.
Just never could get into any mecha game. They're a bit more fun when you have a stupidly elaborate control stick/throttle setup like Mechwarrior with HOTAS or Steel Battalion, but always a little ways in I'm like "yep, got it" and saunter away. I love From's dungeonslop though, even those janky PS1 games. They're like Ultima Underworld for retards, never could get my head around all the runes and weird shit in that game, and comfy.
>>563846641I could never enjoy those games, I don't think they ever made a good mecha game, all gundam games are awful awful awful
>>563847779I think mechs require you to have puzzle-piece train-brain and soi out at the mere concept of a walking tank. People who like these games basically have a fetish. You either got it or you don't.
>>563847991it's such a shame because you can see the pieces for a great game are there, creating your own mecha, mixing and matching different weapons/body parts, big robots fighting, pilot skills/levels, etcand yet all games are mid at best
>I've got a 400th issue with your name on it, Striker
>>563801936xBRZ-looking filter.Yikes.
>>563848435I kinda liked Front Mission 3 anyway, but what you're talking about is another issue with these games; they are bogged down with the fetishistic micromanagement of the weight/components and other fiddly shit and when it comes to managing a squad it gets to be a little much when you just want to engage in the core combat/strategy. Into The Breach actually ended up being a bit more fun to me because it's more to-the-point. Front Mission 3 also has this weird system of skills triggering randomly. Still a cool game, though.
>>563848327hitler had to emulate being aryan because he was too jewish to play on real hardware
>>563850229So it was all a lie after all... how pathetic.Well, hardware was expensive as fuck during "Die Weltwirtschaftskrise", so emulation was the only way, you know...
>>563845772Standalone, you can assign screens to different monitors and otherwise separate them to different windows, which has some useful applications. Also, last I checked the core doesn't have the DSi DSP/sound fixes so some games will run at 2fps and/or sound like shit. It's also just a huge bitch to sideload DSi games and you end up needing the standalone anyway. The only thing the core has going for is built-in librashaders. You have to apply them via shaderglass standalone.
>>563848893I added xBRZ too.
>>563857812this looks awful
>>563857812It's what I've always wanted, the whole game to look like it was drawn by a palsied child with sharpees.
ArtCNN is a mpv scaling shader made for watching 1080p anime in 4K. When is RetroArch going to add a AI shader that was actually made for old games?
>>563787796I told you niggas before, if you manage to tear his project down I'm releasing everything any updates on that? An anon had sent emails to QEMU and WineHQ allegedly
can't believe no one made the perfect crt shader using Claude already
>>563865294CRT shaders require a lot of pixel peeping if you want it to be accurate, Claude is not good enough for that yet

>ps1 game recs doesn't mention which games require analog face buttons for optimal experience

>>563870834oh i'm retarded then/traumatized from emulating mgs3
So I have an important question. How the fuck is /tg/ able to have a pdf share thread in the open and /a/ able to have their own secret manga archive and yet neither this thread nor /vr/ or even /v/ can have their own? Even if it just covered up to 5th gen that would be enough for most people.
>>563573212I haven't played emulated ps2 for a while. Some search said that retroarch ps2 emulation is still unstable on Alpha, and PCSX2 would be a better option, but the thing I enjoy doing is using saveslots to savescum a lot (mostly on RPG games to test routes/choices), but last time I checked PCSX2, only the nightly version had a "controller compatibility" for the use of saveslots, and they suddenly added a patch which broke the save system, and made any game crash when trying to save/load with slots.That was some time ago (not sure how long, maybe 1-2 years). Have there been any changes and is there a stable version with controller support for the menu? Any recommendations?
>>563775943>we traded this literal miracle of physics for "thinness"What's worse is, we had the choice between LCD (garbage) and Plasma (perfect blacks and zero motion blur). And everyone chose LCD and today we still haven't got panels today that are as good as plasmas as OLEDs are riddled with motion blur and about half a dozen other serious flaws.Masses will always choose form over function.

>>563879083Meant to quote >>563791405
>>563828237Doesn't matter. Low res graphics look better with CRT shaders. You absolute retard.Jesus, if you want to get technical then emulating arcade games must only be done with a slot mask shader instead of an aperture grille shader and it must have a specific TVL count that has to be set manually in the parameters....
>>563801936Remember "eagle engine" and "2xSAI" that came standard with zsnes. They looked like that, and even back then, everyone laughed at how SHIT they were.
>>563816515>ive never used a real CRTYeah we know.
>>563879591If that's the case, explain this masterpiece.
>>563879087Yes, and some arcade CRT monitors also have some nasty burn-in. I've witnessed a few Ms. Pac-Man and DK machines with burn-in, with the most recent being a "Class of 81" Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga cab that has Ms. Pac-Man's maze burned into the screen.
>>563816515Peoples here like to pretend the like to play older games but they in fact hate how they look and just can't stand the sight of some pixels, so they will destroy their image by turning it in a blurry mess and then gaslight themselves into thinking it's how it's supposed to look. They don't want CRT shaders, what they want in bilinear filtering for 2D graphics.They are the reason the PS2 is that blurry, because some vaseline on the screen was better that the dreaded pixel.

Not sure if anyone here may know but...is there any tool I could use to "auto translate" what is being played on my PC?I mean, I have heard of some "auto translators" you can install in yout cell phone (but actually don't even know if they are real) and I wonder if something similar may exist which I could use to place a "screen area" which would be auto translated.There's a bunch of old games who never got translated which I wanna play.
did the recent pcsx3 update lower the system requirements? i wonder if i'd be able to play demon's souls on my 16gb hd630 laptop
I feel like an idiot because I completely forgot how to use yuzu and its forks. Haven't touched yuzu/eden/criton in months and now its telling me my area key can't be found whatever that is. I have the prod keys and firmware installed. I was just using it last year perfectly, now I forgot what I did to run games. Also this little error locks my Windows Explorer completely in Sudachi until I click ok.Ryujinx and its forks however, work perfectly so I don't remember what I did to get yuzu/eden/criton/sudachi working.
>>563920234Have you tried keys and firmware from 19.0.1? Supposedly, newer firmware won't work on the latest Sudachi.
>>563920547Just check the prod key page. Didn't realized there were different prodkeys for different emulators. Whatever old one I had must have been for Ryujinx and probably deleted my old yuzu based one. I ended up downloading the latest one for Yuzu and it works on sudachi. Real confusing mess.

>>563923064Their post history/username(s) please? I gotta see this.
so I'm a complete fucking noob when it comes to emulation and I really want to emulate the PS2 for Psychonauts, God of War, Sly cooper series and Silent Hill.I know that emulators have system reqs but that doesn't mean it'll run any game properly if they clear it. I have picrel as a PC, it's pretty mid imo but it runs BG3 with no issues so...will it run the entire library PS2?
>>563925953Psychonauts PS@ was a bad port from the Xbox, which it was designed for. Just WINE the newer PC version. It's decent.
>>563926732what about XEMU?

I don't keep up with MAME drama. Is there a reason why Evil Night is on the do not fix list? Did mamehaze botch his DIY sex change while it was running in the background?
>>563927181Sucks.
I enjoy Ares for the Genesis.
>>563945491Yeah ares has a good genesis core.
Do emulators ever regress or can i always update?
>>563953684It depend on the emulator. Sometimes it's both, they fix things, but also can introduce regression somewhere else.
>>563927181It's probably okay? Check vids/compat list/issues.>>563942946It doesn't suck as much as this anon lets on. Most games work, but it's not close to perfect.
>>563932128Proof? It's 3DO M2 which is probably a bit beyond most of their skills at this point, and certainly Haze's. From what I gather Haze is more of their PR guy and as far as dev goes he only contributes low-tier retard word like emulating bootleg Dollar Tree toys. He's hardly anyone that'll be tackling complex 3D hardware emulation.
>>563954781They go back and fourth really
>>563958126>4.0 DolphinIt was more than a decade ago and that just how emulator development goes, just play the fucking games.
FUCK THIS FAGGOT SHITTING MISSILES ON ME, FUCKING COWARD HIM AND HIS BUTT BUDDY!Old Avalon is amazing, fucking RAVEN'S NEST, damn you anon that made keep playing Another Age, i'm already at 70 missions completed.
>>563958126Making your emulator work with games agnostically instead of through hacks is hardly silly. Who knows what little known ciggy-core shit it also fixed.
>no wontfix/do-not-fix for evilngt/Evil Night anywhere in github or Mame Testers>he's some spurious nonsense because that's how BPD schizos rollOh, you.
>>563957137>Most games workThey work the same way ffx worked 20 years ago on pcsx2.Not something that can resemble playable. Wanna play Kotor? Save bug.Wanna play Halo? A huge list of problems.Wanna play splinter cell? Enjoy wonky shadows.Wanna play crimson skies? Performance sucks.List goes on. It still can't handle cutscenes on most games without entering slowmo.
>>563953684If an emulator is still being updates past 2020, there is constant regressions. There Is no longer any real testing period, modern emudevs just make random changes and push it out and then fix it by breaking something else.The R in Rpcs3 stands for regressions.
>>563962180Stated it's far from perfect, but it's at least at "give it a shot, it might be okay" level for most titles. You're not given many choices for exclusives outside of buying hardware anyway. Also stated he should just play the newer PC version of Psychonauts.
>>563962467Seriously. The amount of bootlicking RPCS3 gets on twitter just because they do some useless shit like getting 20 fps on Mac is insane. Like, why is Mac support even a thing to begin with? Meanwhile they are breaking games that used to run fine 3 years ago. Most people just benchmark God of War and then never touch on it.It's annoying how everyone boosts on how Cell is le meme cpu and we should be grateful just by the emulator existance. In reality, Cell was very well documented by IBM. This emulator has existed for over a decade by now and the requirements to run it just get higher every day. They make a lot of money from donations, too. I don't really hate it but they are simply doing the bare minimum, no need for drooling over it
>>563962180Crimson Skies is the only one of those one would reasonably want an emulator for. Apparently this is a regression and it used to run better? Dunno about Vulkan vs GL on it, would have to see for myself.
>>563963591> Apparently this is a regression and it used to run better?Yup, remember testing it years ago and working fine performance wise. Sigh.>20 fps on Mac is insaneIf only they actually focused on something desktop related. Most of their updates are stupid shit like ARM/PI or getting 2-3 extra fps in a game that can't hold stable 30. >Most people just benchmark God of War and then never touch on it.I would say it is demon souls. Everybody just focuses on that. And even that game got worse. Didn't used to need color buffers and performance is much worse than years ago.>run it just get higher every dayCan't wait until they require windows 11 and its AI bullshit, tanking even more performance.

I have given up on crt shaders for ps1 games. Downsampling is all i need.
>>563975378I put a simple scanline filter on top of it, both on PS1 and PS2, because of the fmv's and low res 2d elements like hud and assorted sprites.
>>563953684Hello emugen newfag
>>563977064>PS2Doesn't need it.
>>563978947The HUD and sprites do, they're mangled without it, really bad.
>>563979103Just use a crt shader intended for 480i content and then turn off anti blur in the options. Sony had that blur there for a reason.
>>563977064That's what i do, downsampling (paraLLEI-GS) with a scanline.slang.Bretty gud.Also look who's back.
>>563873516What are you asking?Both /v/ and emugen have their own wikis.If you mean downloads - hosting games is a bit different to hosting manga coz the size and bandwidth involved is enormous.So, there is a page on the emugen wiki with hundreds of links to download sources.

>>563909563Yes.I tested https://github.com/bquenin/interpreter sometime ago with the PSP version of Corpse Party on PPSSPP (for reasons) and it worked decently.It's MTL at the end of the day, but the sentences were readable enough.
>>563993032>that VNThe most unforgettable horror porn game I've ever played. No other game had a bunch of elementary schoolers gangbang a teenage girl against a wall. And the teenage girl loved it. No other game I've played had a 17 year old bishonen guy drink a 14 year old girl's piss and chase her down the hall to rape her, only to wind up getting anally raped by a 32 year old fat man. I still remember the scene where a 16-17 girl was hiding under a bed as her same age best friend was having sex with that same 32 year old fat guy on top. She heard every moan, bed shake and sound. In the wrong end she was discovered under the bed by her friend and made to join. A most terrifying scene was when an unwilling girl relives another girl's sex memories. The girl in the memory consented but the reliving girl didn't. It didn't matter that she was mentally screaming, her body in the memory did all the motions and actions as in history. It's like mind control rape except the victim was fully aware. Another scene the same girl and a friend were almost raped in a magic sex ritual, saved by the girl's older sister, and the backlash made the older sister want to rape her younger sister and friend.The loli in this pic is freakishly lewd and once disguised herself as a teenage girl, fucked a boy until he nearly came, transformed back saying>You thought you were having sex with a highschooler weren't you? I'm an elementary schooler all along!And leglocks that boy, forcing him to cum inside her unprotected, when he screams in fear upon learning this. This isn't even getting into the tentacles, the gay sex, the lesbian sex, the incest, the sequel's mother/daughter lesbian scene, etc. The first chapter alone contains lots of lesbian sex scenes with an unavoidable girl masturbating in the bathroom. Truly horror is intrinsically connected with sexuality.

>>564010768Armored Core 2: Another Age. PS2. PCSX2 with PGS I think. SSAA to the max plus hi-res scanout and super-sampled texture option on. Work like a charm on these games.
>>564011281Thank you.I'm guesing my 1060 card wouldn't be able to handle something like that...
>>564011437PGS is very heavy on the GPU at max setting. Regular PCSX2 with his Gsdx will achieve a similar look while being less demanding, but the hud and UI will look funky here and here. Nothing unplayable.

>>563993032>>564007626managed to make it run and it seems to work...Any recommendations on how to change the game screen position so it doesn't block my view? in the git page seems to have a border for the game, but I'm not sure on how to do that on retroarch.
>>564013886It seems the "inplace" option instead of "banner" and reducing the font size is better, it blocks the view, but helps a lot. Thank you again.
>>564014336>>564013886and again I realized the "inplace" translates line by line and sometimes it makes less sense. So... how can I move the game window so I place the banner sometimes and switch to inplace other times when needed?I'm not sure which option may help me, I'm using retroarch with swanstation for psx.
>>563993032>>563909563Can never have enough tools like this, and I'll be trying it. I've had decent luck withhttps://docs.lunatranslator.org/en/This can actually dig a game's Japanese text strings out of memory as well as capture via OCR (online and offline options)
>>564014741I mean, I want to do something like in the example image, but I have no idea how (if possible without strange images in the border thing).
So I'm trying to play the Saturn version of Crime Patrol in Mednafen and not only is there distracting garbage at the bottom of the screen, the game is unplayable because certain enemies don't respond to being shot. The "accurate options" falls on its ass once again.

Not sure if there's a better way, but this kind of seems to work (coudln't scale lower because I'm not sure how it'd take a "non-scale" resolution).

okay so what the hell is up with azahar? i just got it and alright, sure, .3ds isn't supposed to work anymore... so why does this one .3ds game work, but the others don't, as per the screenshot? If it's because they're encrypted, then I tried running them through the decryptor, but nothing happened... I assume they're decrypted? So apparently changing the file extension from .3ds to .cci works... but except it doesn't, so what's going on here? the roms work normally on citra, so uh
>>564045685azaharplus
>>564045774Thanks that did the trick, I just don't understand what the problem is, one .3ds works but the others don't? Strange
>>564046343they supposedly reverted the 3ds stuff and you should be able to use all of them but who knows or cares really
azahar plus is not recommended in the wikiwhy is that
>>564046472Yeah, that's why SMT IV works, but I just don't understand why the others don't, maybe it's a specific type of decryption or like of the rom that it just doesn't like? who knows>>564046513Probably because it's the same thing as azahar except it has support for .3ds roms
>>564047598so why is that .3ds is not supported anymore?all the games on vimm are .cci anyways and thats where im getting them from
>>564048581>.3ds is not supported anymorewhat?doesn't citra support these anymore or am I missing something? (all my roms are .3ds and I haven't played since like 2 years ago).
>>564048837you said that azahar plus supports .3ds so i assume azahara doesnt?
I just got the news that citra got discontinued 2 years ago...
>>564049856its azaharplus now
>>564044339It doesn't remove Denuvo, it just make him thing he run on a legit system and install. Also, the cpu load is a myth, stop using a 2005 XP machine.
>>564048581as far as I can tell, .3ds is not a "real" file extension, it's what the groups distributing roms online called them out of convenience - .cci is what the actual technical extension is. Azahar stopped supporting them for a while (but started up again) to distance themselves from the piracy scene in hopes that it will stave off nintendo's lawyers>>564048837Citra's been dead for a while now mate>>564048923It does now officially, azaharplus' main thing was that it supported .3ds (which is now moot) and it allowed you to download system files from the official servers, which is still valid but not as big of a deal honestly
>>564052602It's not universal but it's not a myth either, some devs are retarded enough to put the anti-tamper checks on the hot path.
>>564052636>.3ds is not a "real" file extensionWhat a retarded fucking take. We're talking about rom dumps here. Giving it an extension at all is just a matter of convenience.
>>564055549well the azahar team agrees, that's why they reinstated support for it
>>564055392Some devs, yes, still a rare occurence. UE5 kill more performance on itself that Denuvo these day.
>>564055763nta but people for some reason need to feel vindicated for piracy, and then they feel like they need to have some sort of a moral reason for getting mad that they can't pirate stuff, it's silly
denuvo ALWAYS wastes cpu cycles doing it's retarded verifications.
>>564052636No, retard, Azahar supporting whatever arbitrary extension name does not make Azaharplus "moot". Azaharplus supports encrypted roms, Azahar doesn't. The name of the extension has no value. In fact, pablo pretends to moralfag so much but no one would even know the "official" extension(cci) if SDKs didn't leak and people looked at them.
>>564058612? why are you so mad at me when you can't even understand what I said, i said that specifically the fact that azahar now supports .3ds makes the fact that azaharplus also supports it a moot point, dickheadi've never said that that's a good or a bad thing either, learn how to read above a 3rd grade level
>>564058816You are a waste of oxygen.
>>564062245okay nigga
Luna mogs that interpreter in this instance.
Interpreter just can't figure it out. I wish Luna had inplace/overlaid translations in OCR mode. It was about to be merged but the lead dev nixed it saying it was too janky. Sad. I should probably learn how to compile his changes.
>>564045685No idea, i ended up re-downloading my roms, all "decrypted" apparently there's no problem with the file extension anymore you just need to make sure they're decrypted but even that is bullshit, i had a bunch of decrypted roms but they simply didn't work.Ended up getting the .torrents from minerva and re-download all my 3ds roms at once, it took much more time than direct download but at least it was just set and forget.
>>564066843also note that I had to turn the shader off for it to even quarter-way work
>>564036970I'm liking AC3 minus the music, the HUB theme is weak compared to the other ones.Good upgrade on textures and particles, it's just keep getting better.This series is insanely good.
What CRT shaders do we like for the PS1?
>>564067618I feel like maybe there's some sort of protection against pirated roms, maybe? Like the program can detect that somehow, and that it locks it off... I have no clue otherwise though, like other anons said though azaharplus seems to work fine
>>564075606Maybe some of these "decrypted" roms have not been properly decrypted, hence why the Myrient romset work fine will roms from other sources don't.
>>564076264Also possible, maybe the ways to decrypt roms have changed over the years... All the decryptors consider them decrypted already, and some do still work while others don't... Your guess is as good as mine though
Wtf are you people doing? Everything decrypted i got from ziperto works on azahar if you just rename the file.
>>564076727some tools don't set a flag in the ncch header to signify that it's been decrypted. most tools can automatically detect that, though. maybe azahar is just dumb.

Hi everyone, just an old person trying to figure out what the cool frontend is nowadays. I used to use Retroarch for its shaders and ability to never interrupt gameplay but I can't get it to work properly under Linux
>>564108550Retroarch is still the most popular and most used in that domain. As for your Linus problems, can you detail them a little?
>>564108770>can you detail them a little?NTA, but that's what I'm wondering. Works on my Deck with the Flatpak.
>>564108770It's the scrolling. I can't stop the backgrounds from shimmering. This wasn't an issue on my Windows install, but maybe I'm just stupid...
>>564112460Not a linus user so I can't help. Can be a Retroarch bug, can be a bug with the graphic backend (Vulkan, etc...), can be a weird interaction with your distro.
I may try to install Azahar later...but for what I have seen here, it doesn't seem to support .3ds.Is there a way to decrypt my .3ds files to whatever extension they use now? I'm not sure if there's a way to get the roms again (some are undub and such).
>>564113834If your games are already properly decrypted, just changing the extension should be enough, also, Azahar seem to have walked back from that decision and accept .3DS again.
>>564113834There's supposedly a bat script you can use on Windows, but I have no idea if it works on Azahar. Probably because I've been bothering with Tanuki3DS instead, which seems less stagnant by comparison.
>>564113997>Tanuki3DSgonna check that too, last time I used citra it was before all that nintendo thing and I didn't even know they removed it.but yeah, it's mostly for games that weren't that really famous on the west (except the uncensored version of bravely default where they don't use diapers instead of panties).
>>564114667>diapersSome would view that as an improvement.
>>564113834Just use azaharplus, give it keys, and don't worry about the encryption status of your roms.
>>564116740are there keys for 3ds? I don't think I've ever used such thing, I know there are firmwares to download on the internet
>>564116740>give it keyswhat does this mean?

so...which option would be better of emulating psp?I remember using ppsspp on my old tablet long ago, but I wonder which would be good for pc.Is it better to do it in retroarch? I mean, I really like retroarch menus and customization, but I'm not sure which core would be good or if the support is still on alpha or something (like for ps2).
>>564140549ppsspp is still good
>>564140478He was the guy who implemented Dolphin's current ubershaders, believe it or not.https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2017/07/30/ubershaders/
>>564140595Thank you, I'll search for it then (it was good long ago, I hope it has joystick compatibility for the menu).
>>564140743It does I'm pretty sure
>>564140741That don't work and eat more resources than a crypto mining center?
>>564140804Thank you.It seems to work really nice (I just installed it and could run my iso), I'm not sure if there's a way to config the video to use filters.
>>564141368What filter would you use?
Good god, I just wanted a N64 emulator. When did stuff get so fancy?
>>564140858They work, they just don't work in Vulkan and they won't fix it, and I've been using them since the 1060 days so they aren't that heavy.
>>564141458Just use ares bro.
>>564141423I don't even know where to config that, I just installed it and it looked like that by default.
>>564141508Sharing shaders with UID's would worked well enough for most people, they should have just went with that.
>>564141423maybe something so the letters don't look "chipped" (or maybe that's due resolution).
>>564141847Bro psp games ran at a lower internal resolution than ps2 games. Of course they look like that.
>>564141934oh... I was hoping for some interpolation, even if it makes it a bit... blurry, but yea. I mean, my snes games look a bit better than that.
>>564142061I suggest you emulate a different system then.
Yeah your emaciated bug physique isn't pulling it off.
>>564142162sorry for saying unreasonable things, I just wanted to know if there was an option like that. I remember it looked way better on my tablet long ago, but maybe it's because I'm doing it on a way bigger screen now as you said.
>>564142247>maybeThe psp's screen was only 4 inches long so yeah I'd say thats it
>>564141508>they just don't work in Vulkan and they won't fix itWhy? That article actually says stenzek not only made the ubershaders but also dolphins vulkan backend? I guess if its busted then that explains why they wont fix it since I don't think ive ever seen stenzek return to someone elses project. Usually he's there once and then never again.
>>564141687How is that better than something that works with every game right from the rip? Sharing shaders is far from ideal: They break down the road after the emulator changes enough. Some sap has to play a stuttery mess before distributing them. The games people share them for are completely arbitrary. I don't know what your weird deal with ubershaders is. They work fine... in OpenGL and D3D.>>564142701https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12934Yeah, go figure. Wontfix :^) Also am I supposed to believe some PCFX coomer whipped this up?

>>564143265>Also am I supposed to believe some PCFX coomer whipped this up?Just look up the earliest mentions of Matthew LaFrance on the archive. That should be enough to tell you how seriously you should consider the claim.
>>564020351NTA but that looks like typical underscanning that would be stretched beyond the bezel of a CRT.You can crop that with retroarch, i think there's even a specific core option in beetle saturn to fix it.
>>564149074Are you on something. I posted a screenshot of ymir with the full overscan area visible and it's not there.
>>564018151SSF is an emulator that's been around since the mid 2000's.Ymir does nothing SSF didn't do 20 years ago.>>564073052I emulate on a 15khz CRT so for ps1 i use a combination of -Interlacing shaderand-GTU50 to tone down signal bandwidth and correct the gammaIf i'm in the mood for composhit i'll use the adaptive shader in the "NTSC" folder.
>>564100047You can adjust the blur in every CRT shader.

>>564149275Except have compatibility above 40%?
What's the point of Nintendo sending a DMCA to Eden's github repo containing only the CI builds but not to the repository containing the source itself? It's like they only care about keeping people from using the emulator not about devs supposedly breaching their copyright by implementing their crypto routines.

Hello! Get the kids outta the room
>>564143265>How is that better than something that works with every game right from the ripYou wouldn't have to deal with a wontfix like you posted
>>564143265Ideally with UID's there would be a database of them and you'd be able to autodownload them before playing. If only one guy has to deal with stuttering for each version of dolphin thats perfectly fine by me.
Yeah, because it worked so well for Ryusak? Between different shader between AMD and Nvidia, shaders version changing between emulator update or gpu drivers. And finally retards managing to upload corrupted caches somehow. Sure, such a better system. By the way, if you precious repo get taken down because drama, well... Just ask Ryusak.Ubershader is a great system, not matter how much you hate Stenzek on principle or the Dolphin dev incompetence.
>>564157564i wish i could use retroarch for everything but the cores run slower than standalone emulators
>>564172917Are you retarded? Did you even read the article? UID's a vendor independent. They are basically configurations for the emulated gpu that are then turned into shaders. If you have a database of them you can compile all of them before you game runs. They're not a shader cache retard.
>>564173435That litteraly what Ubershader does, even the precompiling before start if you check the option.
>>564174882Its not the same at all. Why do you think they were considered different options to solve the shader stutter problem? And why ubershaders took far more work just to be busted on nvidia gpus in the end? Ubershaders attempt to emulate the consoles entire gpu pipeline in a shader. Of course there are going to be bugs that will never be fixed.
>>564175443Still better than you shitty Ryusak 2.0, cope and sheethe.

>>564149828>ciggy defending an emulatorNever thought I'd see the day. SSF wasn't quite that shit, though. It was at least ZSNES level passable for a long time.
>>564187654It's depend. If you want some enigmas then Laydon, if you want more plot, Ace Attorney, if you want some original way the DS was used, Hotel Dusk. If you want to go vrooom Ridge Racer.

I am actually kind of nostalgic for the halcyon days of ciggy gossiping about Matt, even if he's clearly not Stenzek. I want more kino classics like how this doughy weeb's family dropped a tree on someone, how he couldn't bang some Portuguese broad, his leftist cringe, and the bug porn obsession He at least works on translation patches so that's somewhat emu adjacent.
>>564189328There's always that one person in these sorts of generals, isn't there
>>564187741>>564188514I actually got through most of Ridge Racer DS but the later stages are seriously bullshit and you can't make any mistakes, also steering with the touch screen was such a dumb gimmick that almost no other game tried it again. And nearly all of these are puzzle/adventure games so they are pretty similar >>564188225I wanted to start Ace Attorney but I felt it would be tiring to get into when there are so many games so I should probably take breaks between them.
>>564190895>I wanted to start Ace Attorney but I felt it would be tiring to get into when there are so many games so I should probably take breaks between them.The cool thing about ace attorney is that it's practically episodic, so you can finish a case, or maybe just do half a case and then take a break for something else if you want

>>564244605I’ve never understood the blind worship for this midwit filtered slop. The "pure" turn-based combat is just a glorified menu-mashing simulator, a complete waste of time compared to anything with actual interactivity or hybrid systems.Onn top of that, visually it’s a total disaster. No amount of CRT shaders can fix the jarring asset mismatch between the low-poly Lego models and the pre-rendered backgrounds. It looks like a collage made by a toddler. If you want to see actual mastery of the 32-bit era's limitations, look at Resident Evil 2 or 3. They actually understood how to blend 3D assets with pre-rendered backgrounds without it looking like dogshit.

It's either gonna be fat chicks (who you CAN judge by their appearance; it means they are mentally ill or lazy enough to let other shit break down) or if you luck into a good looking one she'll be some cluster B-ridden piece of shit who is aware enough of her power but too toxic to hold down a high value man who knows his worth. Sorry, the nice looking trad one with a good heart isn't for us. Maybe society will break down enough and you can smash some idiot's skull and take a decent one for yourself.>>564251547He does find legit bugs (sometimes) but it's hardly the point. He just wants to call emulators shitty and developers lazy or malignant. If he cannot find legit dirt on a dev he'll find some communist weeaboo freak and say it's him. I wish I knew what his actual problem was, or why he doesn't just use flashcarts or softmods.>>564253193Why don't you use flashcarts or softmods, ciggy? If you want to preserve and play these games for free the hardware is out there; a computer costs money just as a console does. You're infinitely unimpressed with emulation and you cannot be made to say a good thing about an emudev or an emulator with a gun in your face. I'm convinced you'd take the bullet first. Let me take you at face value and good faith and presume you are merely out to raise standards... what is the gold standard of a good emu for you, can you name one that passes it? Why would you call Ymir shitty here while working with the dev on his github? Do you think he'd appreciate that? No one has an issue with your bug reporting, it's the clear weaselly contempt you have.
>>564279775Gimmie yours you fat slut.
>>564279979
>>564279775As always leaving me in suspense as to what these supposed non legit bugs are. I'm sure you'll tell me one day.
>>564270390There are no such things as shaders. You've been lied to.

>>564280335Stop with the mealy-mouthed "I don't know what you mean" shit and be a man. We've talked about them in the past (VFKids demo, several CRT/overscan artifacts, behavior on hardware, etc) but lately your issues seem a bit more legit. Maybe because you know better now, or maybe you know people will call you out. Answer the other questions please. What's a good emu or dev in your opinion? Why don't you use hardware if your standards are so lofty? Why did you feel justified to claim Matt LaFrance is Stenzek when he clearly isn't?
>>564243856and why call Ymir shitty when you're working with Striker? That's so fucking slimy.
Fuck and make up already.
>>564284139No, I want this schizo to give me answers. Actually, I'm positive he's not mentally ill, or insane anyway. He's just a bitter, evil fuckhead.
why is theme selection on /vg/ broken when it's working fine on all other boards?
> Ymir at the point where it seems to run every game as good as or better than Beetle/Medslaugh at this retard, 500 times
>>564286558It was a question, not a statement, asked to someone who's testing both. I don't test a million shovelware pantsu and pal sports games to know.
>>564276878Does this just werk once you updated to mesa git and are there actually benefits for emulators shown by benchmarks? The former was easy but I am much too lazy to do the latter by myself.
>>564287741if you already did the former which is the difficult one of the two then why not do the former? it should become obvious to you if there was an improvement. if you check the git provided in the link there is performance numbers shown but not about emulation specifically
>>564287031And those also fail on mednafen.
>>563573212Internet Appliance emulation when?
>>564291681Weren't some of these just gimped BIOSes and/or OSes on bone stock x86 hardware? Check into what's emulated in MAME, QEMU, and 86box.
Hmmm...
>>564292182Very cool, Refraction, the PGS merge now please.
>>564292182>"may" significantly increase system requirements!Kek, just add PGS for fuck's sake.
>>564292571I'm sure any formal request will be met by some internet omega-male horse shit. "I don't know what you're talking about" "they can submit a PR if they want :^)" nah fuck the end-user and overall betterment of the project. It's not his and it mogs his recent output so baby won't support it.
>>564278731i have completely forgotten
>>564292182... does this works like... taa?
>>564293991
>>564292008>Weren't some of these just gimped BIOSes and/or OSes on bone stock x86 hardware?yes, but the disks were not preserved
>>564295072big welp on that then, not that you'd really want to emulate this. It's just not special at all. This is arguably less interesting than haze tier handhelds.

Later I can dig to find some stuff.
>>564297941Taking these for the wiki, always good to have the new updates documented.
>>563573212i pretty much made my own LG/Goldstar studioworks preset off the latest Guest reshade update by devilsingh at libretro
>>564298607agree
Some cancer missions left to complete.
>Azahar working on MSAAmight be cool
Rpcs3 has automated game settings based on outdated wiki stuff.Great, now i am gonna have to disable this shit every time i wanna play a game.
Can I emulate WarioWare SHOVE IT UP YO ASS GAME yet?https://github.com/wheremyfoodat/Panda3DS
>>564316650>https://github.com/wheremyfoodat/Panda3DS>Last commit 2 months agoAnon...
>>564271681Some of those claims in that wiki are complete bullshit.Especially the one about dithering being blended.I played silent hill on a terrible CRT in 2000, via an RF cable, and i could still see the dithering. It was clear as day.
>>564318596It can vibrate up a troon's ass, what more is there to be done?
>>564319131Sir, I do not believe you. I have a pee-ass2 I can play the stupid game on right now, with composite and I bet my ass the dithering is mostly transparent. You may be misremembering how jaggy and unfiltering it was as dithering.
Guess I gotta hook the stupid thing up only for some anon to move the goalpost on me for my efforts.
>>564320038NTA, just to chime in to say:1. This may be obvious, but dithering is visible if outputting from s-video, component or VGA. All of my old CRTs which accepted one of those connections did that.2. Some high-end consumer CRTs can actually show dithering through composite. I was actually surprised at this, but saw it many times on a friend's Sony Wega. I assume it also happens with PVM/BVM. It would be cool to have some confirmation.I have nothing to add about RF though. Dithering always blended with it. Then, again, I never used RF with a good TV, so there's that.
>>564323563Never used RF of my life, the "lowest" I've gone was composite, aka the default cable bundled with the console back in my day.
where do you get xbox rom now that myrient is downminerva only has torrent, no ddl, and xbox torrent is slow af
>>564309047right side looks like it just had vaseline smeared on it.
>>564324656r*msf*n
>>564324189I'm from a poor country, so manufacturers bundled only RF here. The reason was probably because our TVs were shitty and took long enough to have composite inputs. I think it happened in the later half of the 90s. Personally, I saw it as a decent improvement. A neighbor had an SNES hooked through composite on a 21-inch TV and it looked so much better than what I had.
>>564324849stuck
>>564319131>I played silent hill on a terrible CRT in 2000, via an RF cable, and i could still see the dithering. It was clear as day.Well, you can update the wiki to reflect that?Add something like: 'RF may not fully mask dithering on all CRTs, though Composite will most likely blend it properly'>Some of those claimsWhat else is wrong with it besides your point about dithering?
>>564325438vimm has it but its slowwww toowhy everything is slow todayi hate old games
>>564325438I could get through Clownflare verification on my end, but my ISP sadly blocked it because Spectrum's "Cujo AI" is a piece of shit. Getting around the SSL block via TOR didn't work either, so I'm just as fucked as you are.
>>564327184In the meantime, I suppose these links from archive should be good enough.https://archive.org/details/metal-gear-solid-2-substance-usahttps://archive.org/download/microsoft-xbox-xemu.xisoready-software-collection-part-2https://archive.org/download/microsoft-xbox-xemu-ready-software-collection-part-3
>>564328221thanks anonthis one says its xemu ready xiso files in the descrip but when i click view all to get dl links they're all in iso?
>>564329108nvm he says they're just wrongly labeled extensions, but it's weird because the file sizes are larger like the original redumps, xiso should be smaller filesizes
>>564329108Those links to a Xiso collection, yes, it's normal there all listed as ISO because the complete format name is .xiso.iso. These links doesn't have everything but everything they had is Xemu ready.
>>564324656minerva is going to die because nobody seeds shitthats why torrents suckit was all a lie about being a myrient backup
>>564332203Yes, I think so. Frankly, the ideal middleground for a proper service would be: very simple, old-school and lightweight interface (like Myrient was) + direct downloads + only individual roms (no romset downloads) + download limitations (decent speed, but single downloads only, no external managers allowed).Anything more than that would entail more money than someone is willing to spend. A good service with longevity is better than an outstanding one that soon fizzles out.
is ftp the only way to import a save for xemu? my god
>controller works in joy.cpl>works in browser gamepad testers>works in steam input tester>even works in ryujinx>can't get it to be detected in Eden/Sudachiwtf is this shitI tried looking around for possible causes but can't find anything on it, especially since almost all of hte results are from android emulation
>mgba had configurable rewind speed merged in 2023>https://github.com/mgba-emu/mgba/pull/2902>doesn't actually exist in any release of the emuDid he remove it? Why? Rewinding is so slow.
>>564306441I emulated this over 10 years ago and that menu upscaling bug was still there. Incredible.
>>564332203Nah, you're just a zoomer for not seeing torrents as flawless. ;^)
>was gonna see how SH looked on my CRT>forgot I gave someone my composite adapter for my SiSTer>no blank CDRs to boot on my peeass2>just don't have the spoons to load it in popstarter tonightBleh.
>>564324656Never heard of that site but I get my xbox roms from google like everyone else. Maybe try not being dumb zoomer.
>>564282116So the long awaited reveal is that out of 304 reports there was...1 that happened on real hardware. Which I closed when It was confirmed. Real smoking gun there Woodward. Lay off the lead paint.
>>564349630Don't forget the mesh fog you tried to sell us as a bug too, and several other CRT/overscan artifacts on Duckstation over the years. So why Matt? It's funny as fuck, but why?
Your practices are a little less dubious toward Ymir, but your contempt still shows and stinks. People like you are a perceived grievance away from scorched earth mode.
>>564349987Yeah here's me doing that.
>>564350128Don't know how many times you have to be told an emulator's primary job is to spit out the GPU output and anything the happens to it after is an effect to be applied.>might beDefinitely is. Cool time-waste.
>>564350506Yeah the 8 seconds it took to read that is time the dev will never get back.
>>564292437>>564292571Build it yourself or keep crying
>>564324808Games look better that way.
>>564345509>peeass2Depending on your ps2 I think the dithering and the fog can be different from a ps1.
https://sourceforge.net/p/hpsx64/discussion/general/thread/f0fcd3447e/#216eGod I hope he embraces it. We might get a PS2 emulator that doesn't suck
>>564352454>ainope, welcome to bug and regression cityLike rpcs3 but worse.
>>564351018No ill just keep using LRPS2 on retroarch while you keep fiddling with your busted renders, maybe one day you'll get something as good as PGS.
My brother in Christ, I’m busy emulating Medal of Honor: European Assault on PCSX2 w/ AA1. Could you start the next thread? God bless.Ciggy
