great day for our mushi pork schizo
ParaLLEl-GS/PGS fixes ugly seems in UI and text elements, when upscaling.Very nice.
>>568690131seams*ASL.
>>568690131Yes it has been doing that for over a year, where have you beenhttps://www.libretro.com/index.php/lrps2-the-new-playstation2-core-with-a-brand-new-lle-renderer/
>>568689963are the CV1000 games emulated accurately on fbneo?if not this is great news
>>568690406CV1000 has been accurately emulated on fbn with blitter delay and such for 2 or 3 years
>>568666154He's actually the guy who's built at least one of the PCSX2 PGS Windows binaries, I already use it, and LRPS2 needs to do everything PCSX2 does.
>>568690502really?you dont have to change any settings and shit?
>>568690532You don't even have dualshock 3 to play pressure sensitive games yet you keep harping about it>>568690609You need to set CPU speed manually for each game iirc, search FBNeo CV1000 blitter on google
>>568690683I have two. Okay, what about all the other special controllers you apologetic simp? What about automatic FMV aspect ratio adjustment in widescreen? This is why we'll never get a complete PS2 core or PCSX2 w/ PGS. >ah whatever it's just a little shit in my cornflakes I'll eat around it
>>568678879>removing motionblur from racing gamesI hate brownoids
>>568690853The most important part is that PGS was built with shaders in mind and retroarch provides that in spades. It's more important that hooking a fucking guitar hero controller, because it affects every game.
>>568690853>What about automatic FMV aspect ratio adjustment in widescreen?Using 16:9 patches in the first place means you're stretching UI, acquire some taste and play in 4:3 like it was intended.
>>568690872The problem with that situation is that most people are not aware that there were different motion blur techniques and implementations in the past. Per-Object Motion Blur is cool (Crysis, some PS3 exclusives etc.) because it only applies motion blur to geometry that is actually moving in the 3D space of the world, rather than applying a general motion blur filter.https://x.com/Dachsjaeger/status/1566850012163735552https://reshade.me/forum/shader-suggestions/6703-very-close-to-per-object-motion-blur-request-a-small-tweakhttps://vsrecommendedgames.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Games_Featuring_Advanced_Physics#Unveiling_the_Hidden_Link_Between_Visuals,_Sounds_and_Game_Physics
>>568690980>this old faggot line that isn't even true and doesn't even consider that even without shaders it's an accelerated, far more efficient alternative to software/CPU rendering, PGS has shaders in Maister's build, and you can apply shaders to any program externally anyway
>>568691797Missing feature's a missing feature. Replace the standalone if you want everyone to use your program with a unique feature, Daniel. Otherwise I need both Retroarch and PCSX2. I'm tired.
Sample and hold displays already blur any moving object to shit, I don't need additional smear included in the graphics pipeline.>>568692008You ok buddy? TM's build for arch has only 1 shader, his own, and it's not very good or even accurate.
Fuck it. PS2 will forever be in a shitty "you need both", Switch emulation tier state on PC then. It's fine.
>>568692286They're both pretty good for PS2 emulation all things considered. 3DS however, has literally 0 good emulators. Panda3DS barely works, and Azahar has 3 extra frames of lag.
>>568689963>holds breathOkay good, it's not Exa-shit, sigh of relief. Charlatan fucking kikes.
What's the best Sega Saturn emulator? I have played some Saturn games on my old laptop and I love the console but I dont seem to find a consensus on this take specially given how unstable Saturn emulators tend to be compared to other more popular consoles'
>that'll be $4,000 tax n tip for a 16bit remake of Gimmick sir/madam>what? this would be a $5 Steam game or we could have been slightly less jewish and sold it for $20 on Switch? My good saar, this game deserves bespoke arcade hardware that isn't just a budget PC with a security dongle marked up 8,000%
>>568693625mednafen
Day of the exa emulator when? I want it just to bankrupt these retards on principle. I won't even play it.
>>568693625mednafen or beetle saturn for RA.YabaSanshiro if you need upscaling but I never liked this emu and the last time I've tried it, the UI was completely borked. Maybe it's good now idk.Ymir isn't there yet but it's a promising one.
It's worth noting that SSF is actually not too bad and works on really low specs. You're better off w/ Meds/Beetle though. My first instinct is to recommend in Ymir if you're the kind of newb to ask questions, as it works with most games and the UX won't make you want to McNutt.
Never mind ciggy pointing out audio cutoffs and literal 1-frame glitches (the one in that Samurai 2D platformer was literally a fucking frame in the char select screen) in obscure titles. It will probably work for you.
>>568701457The problem with Ymir for beginner is the complete lack of shaders. even Mednafer has decent options.
I think healthy emu development demands ADHD and the ability to jump between a million titles. That he's so addicted to Blizzard-slop isn't good. I can barely stand to play a single game for a week, let alone one for 'seasons'. Byuu said he had ADHD to Null before he 41'd.
>>568703507ReShade or ShaderGlass. >beginners>being able to configure a shader properly, being able to discern what a good CRT image is, caring about CRT shadingYeah no. They just want to get in and grill.
>they finally shat this constipated, prolapse inducing turd out>nearly 20% of Steam thinks it SUCKS.jpgWell, I still gotsta know after all this time. It's on topic because shaders are CRT/LCD emulation and I uh, emulated the Switch version. Yeah.
>>568705993What's wrong, /v/ didn't liked your outstanding opinion?
>>568707116I literally don't know anything other than it's an Awakening clone that took forever to come out, and that it isn't glowing doesn't bode well. I don't have an opinion yet.
can somebody explain to me the constant whining about PCSX2 and the obsession with the PGS fork? I unironically cannot understand what's the difference between them two, the nightly build of PCSX2 is working flawlessly and has been for years
>>568707308No explanation I give you is likely enough because you sound like a pleb and since it's 4chan any reason I give will just be downplayed by you but here goes: It's basically software level accuracy/stability with all the effects intact, with the ability to raise the resolution, and it's a hell of a lot faster than software mode. Hardware GSdx has come a remarkably long way, but some games still hate it, and it's still reliant on a ponderous amount of hacks. It's hardly agnostic.
>>56870723990% of indie games is just coping better games that came before, be it the games the dev played when they were child or previously succesfull indie games (or even AAA games but without the budget). Here, an opinion, can use it if you want, it's free.
and as I've explained a million times, to get it:>you can use Retroarch which is missing all the special controllers the standalone has, and a few other features>In Windows, you can go through the humiliation ritual of grabbing MSVC and building it, which requires time and effort that the developer could just cut out for you, but won't>You could get it fairly easily in Arch Linux, but are you enough for a sperg for that?>or you can rely on ciggy not to poz and spy on you with his buildThese are problems that could be solved if TheMaister and Refraction n staff would just work together for the user's sake, but emu devs hate users. The group us all in with brownoids who ask them stupid questions.
>>568707509>some games still hate itwhich games? I'm trying to determine if I need it or not, I'm on arch already, no retroarch
>>568708547For one, just about any game with bloom will have the bloom offset or magnified wrong when you raise the resolution. Pick any game, what I said likely applies. Generally the promise of downsampling or raising resolution without breaking the post-processing is enough of a selling point. As for what games are outright broken regardless of resolution, I'm sure that number is low anymore, but they're still out there.
>>568708547https://wiki.pcsx2.net/Category:Software_rendering_only_gamesThese, as far as ones they know about.
Lots of games also have shitty off-by-one seams when you raise the resolution too, which typically isn't a problem with PGS.
>>568708861I see, I might be genuinely retarded but I can't even spot the issue and I feel like I won't if I'm not actively looking for it>>568709407>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFQT_W8AiXchow is Mercenaries 2 in any way broken?it could be that I haven't played on original ps2 hardware for over a decade who knows
>>568710830Like I said I do have to think about what truly *requires* SW or PGS now, but for me the selling point is glitchless downsampling/upresing and avoiding those times you have to apply hacks/workarounds to GSdx. I'm sure over the years you've had those moments where you just have to fall back to software or 1x hardware. I know I have.
>>568711035I had shitty hardware up until 2020, so I wasn't into PS2 emulation until that pointnightly build comes with a fuckton of patches and hacks, and all the essentials are enabled by default, I genuinely don't have to do anything>you just have to fall back to software or 1x hardwareI never had to revert to software, ever
>>568712103Most of the upscalings bugs are small things, some misaligned effect, some weird lines in some text, that kind of things. It's not "Half the graphics doesn't renders" shit and you can technically finish the game without issue. Also, you could also check the issue list on the github to have an idea of kind of problems could exist.
>>568707239It's autistic obsession by "perfectionists" whom spend 10 hours configuring and setting up the emulator, and 10 minutes playing the games.>>568711035>for me the selling point is glitchless downsampling/upresingWhat if you just play the games without bumping the resolution 10 notches? Do you even play the games at all?
>>568713619Like I said, you'll just downplay it. I should have just posted a goatse image at you and been done with it. Fuck yourself.
>>568713808>>568713619
>>568713808Looks like I struck a nerve there :)
>>568689963>CITY CONNECTIONEhh don't celebrate too early
scanline sync on RA introduces serious stutter but I think it's Nvidia's fault, because the same option on RTSS does the same stutters and I'm certain this wasn't an issue before.fuck Nvidia

Even if we were pozzed by fags, fedoras, and feminists to the point of no return you're threat to anyone. You're just dumber semites that stumbled upon a natural resource.

Aaannnddd DONE, now to FOR ANSWER.
>>568724404When I'm done with this gay planet I'm done. I'm okay with that. In a few hundred years when we're all collectively going ass-up for mohammed or some other cultural apocalypse, or melted down for AI biofuel, it will not be my problem. WASP style R-selective families cannot possibly beat back these tides.

>>568715958>>568724118Yeah RA is BSing me again but after driver cleanups I got it working.But it's still stuttering a bit, and RTSS's solution doesn't, there's no problems with it, only it's harder to get tear line into a decent place. And yea that's the thing they need to improve somehow so it automatically places it on top or bottom of the screen.In any case I don't really need it because run ahead/preemptive frames are really good so I just keep vsync on with nvidia reflex forced on and it's ok.
>>568690406as anon said it's been good for a while and seems accurate automatically on fbneo (RA)It beats the pc port of some of these games when it comes to latency too (like DFK)
so is Teknoparrot malware or not? why is this rumor even a thing?
>>568725323>Anyway, PGS is extremely important and worth usingok I'm sold, how to I compile this on Arch?
>>568734764kek
>>568693625Mednafen/beetle. If you have a toaster and can't use it, then SSF is the next best thing and even has features Mednafen lacks, like proper deinterlacing and alpha channel transparencies.
>>568725190Will you move on to the other autistic AC franchise after this? Ace Combat
>>568736956I dunno, I kinda just said "hey grok how do I build link below?" and ended up with it.https://github.com/Arntzen-Software/parallel-gs/blob/main/misc/arch-pkgbuild-pcsx2/PKGBUILD
should i start with the first pokemon games on gb/gbc or can i start with whatever game i want?
>>568737975Recently, Beetle Saturn gained the option to dedither transparency meshes, and some new deinterlacing options. Nice improvements.
>>568741337Oh, really? Thanks to danny claude assisted vibe-coding I guess.
>>568740374Start with this:Pokemon Yellow Legacy (v1.0.10).zip. Fixes all the bugs.or Pokemon Fire Red.
>>568746137Or pureRGB if you didn't like Yellow change.
>>568693625Mister FPGA(i am told its an emulator by many here, or was that in the crt threads? i dont remember)
>>568746137Fire Red is a third gen remake, so better Yellow Legacy or pureRGB for a true 1st gen feel.
>>568707308Ever used ParaLLEl renderer for N64? It fixes tons of issues, and even allows for upscaling without the issues that the regular hardware renderers have as a result of upscaling.its the same story here with ParaLLEl-GS.
>>568743409your seethe about Danny is hilarious
>years old bugs still not fixedThe seethe about danny is deserved.@claude @grok pls fix this shit in his stead.RA really pissed me off today. laggy, buggy, ultra poor af framepacing for no reason at times, and now for whatever reason it no longer use Hardware flip, no idea why.
So, i tested the post claude beetle core: First, the saves doesn't work unless you go the menus to switch to the old mednafen format. Second, I've tested their "true transparency" option, they admite having lifted it straigh from Kronos and, from what I see, the result look different from the Ymir implementation... and worse.
>>568739280I was thinking of playing the series, especially after the announcement of the eight game but i dunno if i would just after Core, it would prolly be too much.Also For Answer is fun kek.
>>568703824ShaderGlass adds input latency.
>>568707509Hmmm...sounds pretty gay desu
are front ends like ES-DE resource hogs?
>>568755862ReShade doesn't, though, and PCSX2 + PGS has its own shading options. Whether they are to your taste or not is another thing, though.
>>568747771AFAIK I'm the only one who's fucked with the MiSTer Saturn core here. Every time a certain anon has posted Saturn emu bugs here, it seems not to have them. Hissatsu had a 1-frame blip during a screen transition that happens in emus, but that's the only time I've seen it act equal/worse than emus.
vimm downloads are down
Why do I see so much stuff here that I am not aware of when it comes to emulation? I just drop my games in a folder, run them and then fiddle a little with the settings if something looks bad. Am I doing things wrong?
redpill me on parallelgs pcsx2
>>568768656High-res + super-sampled textures + super-sampling multiplier = HDSuper sampling by itself = downsampling. Haven't fucked with the CRT shit yet. Sharp backbuffer can have weird results. Play with it a bit.
>>568768656Up the SSAA to kill the jaggies, still be blurry a little, the more you go, the more your GPU will heat. High-res scanout and super-sample textures will help with killing the blur, but may be buggy on some games aaaand will make your GPU heat even more. Everything beyond is TheMaister own inbuils CRT shader machine, have with it until it "looking good".
WHYAREYOUDYING?
I've seen this character somewhere and I'm going crazy trying to remember where.
>>568753874the only person in these threads who actually plays games.
>>568756206Yes. I configure Launchbox to KILL itself after I launch a game, because i dont want it to run in the background. After it launched my game its served its purpose and i'll just start it again if i need it again
Remember when someone at citra fucked up because all these sort of people do is fuck up and a commit started tripping everyone's antivirus? Then it was found to be calling home to a server in China.
>>568761591when my superstation arrives i hope it gets me to actually play some games.Thinking of downloading the game manuals, put them on my tablet, inplug the internet modem, and hook it up to the crt, see if i can finally kick my social media (forums, imageboards and youtube), datahoarding and workaholic addictions, and hopefully play some games
>>568783031unplug the modem*
>>568748164Unfortunately ParaLLEl-GS only allows resolving to 2x native at best instead of having the option to not downsample at all. Other than that it's almost perfect.
>>568752796>>568753832poor Charles, you can't learn how to properly configure Retroarch overnight, it's a lengthy process
>>568784116what do you mean only at 2x?it can upscale the internal resolution up to 8x or 16x i dont remember which.
>>568785452After the upscale it forces a downscale back to native, or 2x if high-res scanout is enabled.
>>568785578>>568784116it was made for CRT shaders, read TM's blog
>>568784512who?>you can't learn how to properly configure Retroarch overnightThat's for sure and I had years to find out, but the issues I'm currently facing are new for me (not to mention the new features that aren't properly implemented).I got around them for the most part but the voodoo dance magic you gotta do to get this thing to work is really annoying
>>568787289It looks decently HD with SSAA + super-sampled textures. Enough of this meme.
>>568787791can you elaborate what you mean by hardware flip issue?and I have no problems with frame pacing on RA, what settings are you running?
>>568788153It looks pretty low res, it's just 2x framebuffer which means 896p in the best case
>>568785578not if you check the ''high-resolution scanout" checkbox.
>>568753832Worse how? It looks fine to me.
>SUPER ZSNES is built on top of fucking UnityHoly cursed.
>>568788317I'm fine now. It took a lot of effort and dancing around bugs, but I got everything dialed perfectly again. I just think it shouldn't take that much effort and testing. It's no wonder people think RA is laggy and shit when any random update can trigger different behaviors for critical stuff.>hardware flip issueWith PresentMon, you can check the way Windows delivers frames to you with the least possible latency. You want the "hardware" flips, any of them are fine, but the higher level the better. Controlling this shit is pretty hard, as any random thing can trigger Winblows to use the lower levels. For me, RA on my monitor is just stuck on the lower one, but on my TV it's on Hardware Independent Flip, which is good because that's where I actually game. It's a complete mystery why RA doesn't like my monitor.>frame pacing on RADepending on the settings, the video just doesn't look smooth, that's bad frame pacing. I use RTSS to check the graph, but it is misleading sometimes due to the way RA works, so I trust my eyes more. I can tell when shit doesn't look smooth, and there's nothing worse than stutters. With default settings, RA is great at this, but when you use latency reduction tricks like runahead, scanline sync, or automatic frame delay, and reduce the prerendered frames as low as possible, that's when RA can shit the bed a bit. Framedrops or stutter will happens when you stack every latency features and complex shader on top so you have to go in and find a good balance. It's not a hardware issue (the 7800X3D does nothing), I assume there can be too much for RA to handle everything at 120FPS (shader sub-frames for 60fps content effectively run the UI at 120fps). I'm testing Cave 1000 games on FBNeo (having a lot of fun with DDPDFK); these run on SH3 CPUs, so it's a bit demanding. But I managed to get something great (much better and less laggy than the PC ports).
why is it so hard to find nintendo ds roms on internet archive?do they always get taken down?
>>568795543First of all, all CV1000 games have 2 frames of lag which is pretty easily run aheadable with fbnSecondly, you are correct in saying that flat graph on RTSS doesn't necessarily mean good frame pacing, you can check ra's inbuilt statistic overlay to check frame present deviation, it's a good metric for 60 fps games (not so much for 30 fps because some cores present duplicate frames unevenly)
>>568796824damn you're right, cant find a full romset... Should have scraped Myrient when you had the chance i guess.

Did you know that this game is still unemulatable?https://adb.arcadeitalia.net/dettaglio_mame.php?game_name=polystar
>>568816430That's not true but I can understand why the cons would outweigh the pros for many.
>>568816430Retroarch is literally the only way that anon >>568795543 can play ddpdfk with zero additional input lagFBN standalone only allows 1 frame of runahead
>backloggdzoomie coded shit
>>568827485>ddpdfk>1 frameonly mentally ill autists care about this
>>568827870Case in point, Retroarch can be very hostile and intimidating to retards.

I guess I just like fighting on here, lol. >>568827870>I just want to grill for chrissakes!Lead headed boomer brained shit. Discern or you're brown.>>568795543>>568752796>>568753832Picrel, WOMM.
>>568828451that's a pretty high latency for 120hz
>>568827870Fucking rude, I just want to have fun. Input lag is antifun.
>>56882857060fps comes in at ~16ms in any game even with vsync off/VRR. It's the best case I've seen. Get RTSS and test it for yourself. At least that's the stack according to RTSS/Windows.
>>568828451>I just want a thin <30yo on the regularYou're in luck, I'm about to turn 23 in a couple months.
>>568828765instead of fiddling with frame present, your cpu time is MUCH better spent running run ahead, which is 16.7ms per frame. RS has 3 frames of lag. your 7800X3D will probably cap out at 2 if you're lucky
>>568827485You'll be standalone on the 20th story before you 41 yourself into the pavement
>>568828570>>568828765[Cont] When I cap games to 119 in a 120hz VRR container, I get around 8ms.
>>568828901I have independent flip AND run-ahead 1 w/ Beetle in that shot. I have it as ideal as possible. Last I checked 2 frames is way too heavy for Beetle.
>>568828824If I could tolerate bussy like towelhead-kun my life would probably be so much better. :( I'm sure you're nice, though.
>>568828938You're missing the plot. Here's 16.8ms with waitable swapchains -1, but it's all useless, at the very best case you're winning maybe 12ms at the tremendous cost of compute power, which should be spent on run ahead instead>>568829058you can't run 2 frames because you have bunch of useless shit like shader subframes or automatic frame delay eating up CPU cyclesAll compute must go towards run ahead, because it's the most efficient way to reduce lag from computational standpoint
>>568829226That's alright, a friend is still a friend with or without benefits. :)
Alright first, the transparency fix in Ymir.
>>568829290whoops, forgot the screenshotyours is one ugly overlay btw
>>568829462Then the transparency fix with Beetle Saturn (lifted from Kronos).
>>568829662Looks better. Danny won.
>>568829290Ah, I'm not >>568828451 btw.For me I run 2 frames of runahead with 0 swapchain on DX11, that's the best result I got for latency, and it runs fine even with useless shit.Vulkan is just more laggy for me.
>>568829764You're correct in using d3d11, it's the most efficient API on windowsImagine new 2nm CPUs will be able to run 3 frames, now wouldn't that be cool
>>568829290I don't have frame delay on because I have VRR which makes it moot. VRR is effectively vsync and frame-delay off with none of the tearing artifacts or delay of vsync. >shaders adding latencyAbsolutely wrong. If anything it's some nano-second processing cost that no human would ever perceive. This has been proven. The only time it would add latency is if your card was so shit that it dropped frames from it. >shaders having significant CPU costThey don't. GPU if anything, and only when you dig into Royale and such, geom-deluxe (picrel) is lightishAnyway, Claude pretty BASED because vibe-Beetle is giving me 3 frames at 60fps now, thanks for reminding me about RS's built in lag.>>568829462Thank you looking forward to seeing how Beetle's is lacking as I'm sure you'll prove. I wasn't being rhetorical and I am curious.
>>568829662I see what you mean, it's like it's more opaque than transparent and not letting the background bleed through enough, if at all in this instance. Thank you for your example.
>>568830031I advice against EVER EVER using preemptive frames. They mask the fact that your CPU is too slow for 3 frames and the game will stutter every time you press inputs. If you can't run single instance 3 frames properly, then just get down to two. You can see that your 7800x3d is too slow for 3 frames because frame deviation is above 3%>Absolutely wrong. If anything it's some nano-second processing cost that no human would ever perceiveI never mentioned shaders adding latency. It's the opposite, activating shader subframes reduce latency, but that cost is never worth it
>>568830294Maybe? In my experience they've acted as more performant run-ahead frames with no drawbacks in my real world use. Run-ahead will stutter back when you're using too much of it regardless of CPU load, and my CPU is not stressed in this particular instance. Only 71% even with an insane run ahead in a slow core.
>>568830187And its worst in motion, for that thing is rotating.
>>568830525Oh, and not using sub-frames in my setup either.
>>568830525Preeptime frames are not easier to run than single instance, think of single instance as preemptive frames that are registering input all the timeTLDR never use preemptive frames, they're useless and will make your game stutter if single instance for the same amount of frames was not running full speed for youI don't think any CPU in the world can run RS w/ 3 frames rn
My CPU is much slower than 7800X3D and it can only do 1 frame. But it doesn't degrade performance, notice that despite core time being dangerously close to 16.7ms, frame deviation is kept low. If your deviation is above 3% in a 60 fps game, you're doing it wrong
Just use a lookin\'\ good.slangp.
>>568831534just slang pussy
It's nice to discuss tech shit, even with some different results/opinions regardless.
>>568829462>>568829662I honestly prefer the Beetle variant.
>>568829894>fullbright everything because lighting/shading was a major tax on the hardware>low poly budget because it was warping sprites into some crude facsimle of 3D>can't make anything but HUD transparent because VDP2 was incredibly hard to leverage in "3D"Saturn was such a butthole-ass looking system unless it was a prestige 2D game. Most of the 2D games looked like asshole too because DKC hit, and western devs had no taste. Inb4 /vr/ fanboy schizos.
and Japs at least understood all the hacks to make a half-decent looking '3D' game like Grandia, or the conservative models used in RSG. 90s western developers just didn't fucking get console games that whole era. It was PC or nothing from them then.
>>568834071I think it's because Japs knew ships looked good in 3D, which is why Earthion's opening animations don't look so jarring.
>>568833656What's going on with the shadows? Guy on the left doesn't have one, guy next to him is standing in white paint, and the rest are standing in puddles of piss.
>>568834596Looks like the shadow LOD drops off a few feet ahead of those guys in front. I was presuming the white was some sort of gameplay indicator.
oh he's cookin
>>568831737>different results/opinionsBased. Everyone improves their knowledge.>"nooo im right u wrong reee"Cringe. Kindergarten-level shitflinging.
>>568827929nah you're legitimately mentally ill bro>>568828714antifun is playing shitty shmups while being trash at them, and then blaming muh 1 frame input lag
>>568835075I haven't seen any drawbacks so let Claude cook I say, lol
>>568835115ddpdfk is pretty approachable, you should try it brosame can't be said about RA, it has retard repellent ui
>>568834926okay so no, I see a shadow behind them on that plane. I think what happens is when there's some sort of active player indicator under their feet, that kills the shadow.
>>568835115Skill issue + projection + missing the point, excellent.
>>568835247I'm utterly bored by shmups
>>568835115It's worth nothing that even the normies care about input lag, it's the one of the rare technical gaming thing they know about and try to avoid.
https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/b4b92a63-ebdf-4a80-98fc-dbfc8e8455d9
>>568835395I'm sorry to say but the reason why you can't enjoy shmups or use RA is cuz you're a little dim witted. Maybe jarpigs on duckstation is more up your speed
>>568835391skill issue is blaming negligent input lag for your incompetence and using it as an excuse to shill the most retarded emulation monstrosity the world has seen>I need muh retroarch for 3 games on ps2, 4 MAME arcades, and 2 N64 sidescrollers!11>>568835556it's worth noting that normal people who actually play games aren't perfectionists and unless the input lag is game-breaking, nobody fucking cares
>>568835584lmfao, that I forgot about that very relevant quote for years is killing me.
>>568835663thank God for that! I prefer to be dim witted than enjoying jap slop>jarpigsutter shit, ew
>>568835691You're the only one claiming lag is being used as an excuse for anything.
>>568835898how a hater of japanese games would find himself on /emugen/?
>>568835965nope, I claimed retroarch offers zero advantages over standalone emus>>568816430and then some autist responded with muh input lag on ddpdfk>>568827485try again>>568836079not all japanese games, just the shitty ones

>>568836179DDPDFK is anything but a shitty game
>>568836278sure, if you're 10
>>568836179>I claimed retroarch offers zero advantages over standalone emuCool. except that's objectively wrong.
Listen here. The rule is simpleIf it's not on libretro, I ain't playing
PadForge is britty gud now, arguably a replacement and then some for DS4Win. ML go brr.
>>568836415great, there's nothing objective here thoyou like tinkering with settings instead of playing them, that's all1 frame input lag is so minuscule it might as well not exist
>>568836637If someone hates something or finds the cons irreconcilable, there's no pro or objective benefit you can present to change their mind. I guess you might be able to convince others reading the argument, but anyone with any sense would have already researched RA and used it for its features. Just call him a stupid faggot and move on.
>>568836809>If someone hates something or finds the cons irreconcilable, there's no pro or objective benefit you can present to change their mind.that's mental illness amazing, we went full circle!
Someone getting filtered by RA's UI again?
>>568837189MANY such cases
>>568837189heh, another retarded filtered by QEMU
so qemu tard turned out to be RA hater, how fitting
>can't into irony>enjoys RAvery fitting indeedI was just mocking you for strawmanning with muh UI, but you're obviously too retarded to gt it
>>568831365I was just fucking around with 3 frames of run-ahead some more, and the game definitely rolls back when you pause it on 3, but is fine on 2. Are you sure it's really 3 in gameplay? I'd bet it's more like 2.
>>568838552if we're talking about beetle-saturn, it has 1 frame of lag on pause, 3 frames on ship movement and 4 frames on ship fire
Mina the Hollower is actually pretty okay. I don't think the soul-shit really helps it, but it doesn't hurt it so much either.
nothing like triggering a schizo to get the thread up
Beetle Saturn Raw, no transparency fix, no shader.
>>568840161Beetle Saturn with some shader, I swear it looked better on my screen and before webm conversion.
>>568829462I've never seen it on a real saturn so I can only say that this one reminds me more of the play station version than the beetle one.
>>568835181Since no perfect saturn emulation exists on github for ai to scrape, the most obvious drawback would be questionable accuracy. Aside from bugs/regressions.
>>568840493Beetle Saturn with the new transparency fix.
Does no one here actually have a fucking saturn to show everyone what it's actually supposed to look like?
>>568814569>>568814651you can switch between ParaLLel-GS and Vulkan/Software in PCSX2
>>568840856And finally, Ymir own transparency fix.
>>568841162what the FUCK is that aspect ratio
>>568840856>>568841162nice job from Claude.
>>568840856>>568841162Beetle is poppin' with color, that cone looks tastyYmir is dull and stretchedsad!

>>568841651of course it does dum dumit's a feature to fix saturn's inability to do transparencies
>>568841786Then who gives a shit?
>>568841905If you want to play accurate saturn experience, no one's stopping you5 frames of lag on Hyper Duel, knock yourself out
>>568841905The goal is to compare the option between Ymir and Beetle.
>>568841786Well then its not a fix if there was nothing wrong to begin with.
>>568842085There were 1001 things wrong, otherwise Saturn wouldn't crash and burn during its console generation
>>568842236No emulator can fix that failure that was the saturn but that has nothing to do with what we're talking about faggot.
>>568841292Ymir default one, should have checked the options before.
>>568842559Saturn's library is diamonds in the rough trapped inside a cell of shitty hardwareEmulation is the key to freedom>>568842604Ymir defaults to stretched aspect ratio? yikes
>>568842035oh well then I like ymir better because its smoother and less spastic.
>>568842703After you "fix" them all you are left with are playstation games.
>>568842940no one's forcing you to enable that option, sperg
>>568842940I'll take that as a win, the saturn library is awesome but the graphic ooooh the hecking grafix
Can Claude help yoink deinterlacer from ymir into beetle-saturn? asking for a friend
>>568843080I reject the word fix because zoomers can't stand the sight of dithering. If anything it looks worse with it transparent because it was never meant to be.
>>568845362How please, there's no "artistic intent" here, just the saturn being unable to render the effect properly and asking for "Crt daddy" to blend it for him. You would say the same thing for the playstation version that actually display a proper transparency effect, that they didn't understood the "artistic vision" or they were "afraid of the dithering" ?
>>568846338>How please
>>568846338>Crt daddyPlease, stop. My father was never home, and I was raised in front of a CRT television. I'm so triggered right now. And I know it's all supposed to be glass and electronics, but something deep down tells me that screen loved me back.
>>568840964whats a saturn
>>568849568whats a sg-1000?
>>568827870low input lag is key for shmups
>>568740374They're all the same. Once you've played one, you've played em all.
why did Near rename himself after a protagonist that got cucked? (and why did he obsess so much over a very 6/10 game that people only remember because of the cuckoldry in the first place anyway?)
>>568842032>5 frames of lag on Hyper Duel,Any more or less and you didn't beat the game
>>568827485is that really that demanding?i remember testing retroarch years ago to play dodonpachi and i got it to only 1 frame of input lag on my shitty laptop
>>568829662At least beetle is in the correct aspect ratio.
>>568831534Grandia is a mess of a game (visually), the more blur you can ad with shaders, the better.I play it on a CRT + i use the GTU50 shader which allows me to crank up the blur on both the X and the Y axis'. + i combine it with NTSC Adaptiove Composite shading to create a super monster shader.It ends up looking like it would have looked on hardware, on a 90s crt, which were much blurrier than the razor sharp 2000s era Sony Trinitron with component inputs that i'm using.
>>568834071RSG looks (and sounds) absolutely outstanding, even today.
>>568833656I love the way saturn (and ps1) games look, in their native resolution, with all their wobbly weird shit going on. Ditto N64 with its weird dithering and 17 different blur filters it applied to its image.It's what gives each of those consoles their distinct look and i wouldn't have it any other way.Warts and all or not at all!
>>568840493>I swear it looked better on my screen and before webm conversion.Video compression destroys shaders.
>>568692459azahar is that bad? I tried 3ds emulation 2 years ago and it was fine
>>568840161The waterfalls in Panzer Dragoon Saga are another good place to test transparencies.There's a part early one where a waterfall is blocking the entrance to a cave, you can park your dragon right out the front and just sit there and grab some footage.
>>568853697*early on
>>568841292It looks like 1:1 PAR. (which is wrong).Saturn games had a fairly wide horizontal resolution, 352 usually. Compared to 256, or 320 in most other consoles. So a 1:1 Pixel aspect ratio would appear wider than it's meant to be.
>>568842032>5 frames of lag on Hyper Duel, knock yourself outThe game was balanced around that. That's perfectly fine.I 1cc'd Strikers on the Saturn on the hardest difficulty. Even With all that input lag.
>>568854183>The game was balanced around that.the same arcade game has 1 frame of lag, retardo
>>568845362It's bonkers what people will do to avoid seeing dithering in 30 year old computer games.They'll destroy the image in an entire game, make text unreadable, completely fuck up colour and contrast etc..... all so a waterfall in sonic the hedgehog, which is only on screen for 3/4 of a single second during normal gameplay, appears to be """transparent""" if they pause the game at the exact right frame and stare at it.
>>568854012First of all, 320x224 is the most popular Saturn resolutionSecondly, Grandia runs at 320 width on the saturnThirdly, majority of 352 wide titles on the sat save from cps2 ports did not account for non square pixelsbasically you're retarded
>>568849568It's the home version of the STV Titan that ran on CD's instead of Carts.
>>568854457The thing is that even on a crt you still saw the dithering. It was blended and did its job but it wasn't perfect. Which to me is part of its charm. You just didn't see it as starkly as you would on an lcd. Except for the model 1 genesis which really did blend and blur the fuck out of everything.
Assuming that the way games were presented on original hardware is definitive or """intended""" way to play is midwit-core.
>>568854604The other way around. The Saturn was first then they were like "oh shit we already have loads of this shitty hardware lets make some budget arcade games on it"
I don't care what ratio is 'correct', but in my opinion if a circle isn't a circle I'm fixing it for my sanity's sake. I end up playing many Genesis and Saturn games in PAR/3:2 for this reason. IT t

It's clear that Striker is running out of steam. If he didn't tell libretro people to fuck off, then maybe, just maybe, he would've gotten some help (from Claude lol)
>>568912174>he didn't tell libretro people to fuck offFunny thing is he didn't even do it for his personal conviction. He just brought the subject publicly and people on r/emulation (of all places) told him to disassociate from them because "they're villains!!!". Just like a child obeying his mother.

>Based on "official" production figures (totaling exactly 160,636,885 units produced between January 2000 and March 2013), the PS2's sales record stands as a significant statistical anomaly. This is particularly evident when compared to popular modern hardware like the Nintendo Switch, which has yet to surpass the PS2's total despite operating in an era with a global population nearly 25% larger and a vastly expanded "gamer" demographic. By capturing such an immense share of a smaller global market, the PS2 achieved a level of market penetration that remains unmatched in the industry, solidifying its position as the highest-selling console of all time and the definitive hardware of the Y2K era.

Is there a known fix / workaround for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 getting stuck in loading screens on Ryubing? The game works fine 99% of the time, but every time I hit a loading screen there's like a 20% chance of it softlocking.

>>568911171>>568910118Ymir already has this, and you're sperging out. Some games look better in 3:2/PAR. 90s developers were extremely sloppy regarding these things. Some considered it, some didn't. Some games have a mix of assets that clearly look better in 4:3 (which makes sense in that Lupin screenshot) and others have a bunch of circles that look like vertically squished ovals.
>>568929549yikes, none of those aspect ratios is correct
>>568928201I was actually using the latest OG Ryujinx when I first encountered the issue and switched to Ryubing to see if it had been fixed (it had not). However the performance is noticeably better on Ryubing so I've stuck with it.
finally found a list of exclusives of ps3/360 titles for me to emulate, i never knew there was a hellboy god of war clone.i dont want some faggot to show me how good halo emulates on xenia no one fucking cares, this shit is already on pc
>closed wontfix>was told my issue was some sort of Steam conflict even though Steam was mentioned nowhere in my repro steps nor am I launching it at any point in my process>whole wontfix response written like GPT>refer to this issue if you're still having problems :^)>attempt to create another issue>only collaborators allowed :^)Okay fuck PadForge then jesus fucking christ lol. I understand both ciggy and AI derangement lefties just a little more now.
>>5689302094me it's pirated rewasd
>>568930209
>>568930738meh it's back to DS4Windows for me, but of course Schmaldeo bitched out under the pretense of an AI protest. Assclowns. Assclowns everywhere.
>>568930043can you please share that list? I looked at various lists of exclusives and never seen that game on any of them.
>>568920938>>568927274The Switch Xenoblade Blade games have a shit ton of problems and no Switch emulator or fork is going to fix it unless someone steps up fully continue development and not make endless useless forks. All the Switch emulators and forks have the same problem basically. You can still try to levitate some of the problems though. 2 isn't TOO bad and I might as well tell you some issues and fixes because all the compatibility sites are gone because retards thought using github issues as a compatibility list was a good idea and achieve.org can't trace inside each topic.>Xenoblade 2-Crashing: Set your GPU speed to extreme or the highest setting it can go for whatever Switch emulator you're using, doesn't matter which, they're all the same. That should stop majority of crashing and freezing. Can still happen but super rare so save often before you warp to places. This also fixes/levitate random freezing when you open up the main menu. There may be some other setting you can try but I forgot and can't remember the site I got the compatibility information from but I think the GPU setting was the main issue.And just for measures before you check out Xenoblade 3>Xenoblade 3Runs fine but has some serious graphic breaking issue when it comes to this one map/continent because of a certain effect Valkan can't handle or some shit. Only solution I found was to switch to OpenGL and even then, I still had graphics breaking but restarting the emulator fixes that. I ended up just playing the whole game in OpenGL because you're constantly going back and forward to this one map/continent. Just sucks that the game looks and runs like ass with OpenGL. Seriously after fooling around with this game I honestly I stop listening to anyone who recommends using a certain Switch emulator/fork to fix an issue because none of the shit works. I'm saving you the time and effort.

>>568931064Jesus switch emulation is grim.
>>568931485Half that stuff is available on pc.Doesn't list demon souls????
>>568931723i did not make the list, i liked it because there was some obscure stuff there that no one mentions
>>568931818Bayonetta,gta,tekken are obscure now?????
>>568931890>there was some obscure stuff there
>>568931595Yeah I pretty much almost given up on Switch emulation. Nintendo won that battle. Sticking with 7th gen and older and never been more happier not dealing with Switch emulation.
>>568931485thank you for sharing the list for me <3I thought i had ever single console exclusive downloaded but i was missing hellboy somehow.
>>568932691what got my interest on the list was knights contract, quantum theory, 007 fps that has a pc port but its garbage and inversion (game not on the list but its a hidden game that i know of)
>>568933083also a bunch of gow inspired superhero games, inversion has a pc port but like 007 its unplayable
>>568933083NeverDead also seems alright, its only 5 hours long so i could finish it easily.
>>568929920Well, then.... You're fucked.
>>568930209DS4windows or Joyshockmapper.>>568930868
>>568930868I'm still using the pre-schmaldeo build and never had any problem with it. At some point, if it work and ain't broke, no need to fix it.
People here talking about 8th gen. I am going to be dead before i can even go through all the 90's and early 2000's stuff.
>>568930209>Anyone who disagrees with me is a leftie or ciggy
>>568934450Trim the slop a bit. There can't be that many early 90' games worth playing honestly
>>568935019There Is actually too much good stuff. Slop was practically nonexistent back then. And i am talking about gems and actual popular stuff. 93-95 was batshit insane in terms of game output.Even bad stuff like the ripper has comedic value.
>>568935581can you recommend some games? I've barely played any games atall, i finished maybe 15 games or something
>>568936326Do you have any genres you specifically like or would like to play/try?
>>568937131I like anything with a story.Sonic Adventure games, Zelda games, Red Alert 2, Starcraft games, Phantasy Star
Worked fine up to this part. Escape from Butcher Bay day one also worked """""fine""""" but goddamn...
>>568937131I’m just a man: shmups, FPS, and driving sim/cade, nothing else. RPGs aren’t my thing, RTS games are solid but I don’t emulate them since I play them natively. I also really enjoy turn-based strategy games like Ogre Tactics and Shining Soul.
>>568886907highest compatibility
>>568939559>Zelda gamesAlundra,Crusader of centy,Landstalker,Terranigma,neutopia,legend of oasis,beyond oasis,brain lord.> Red Alert 2, Starcraft gamesDark reign,war wind, kknd,other westwood games (emperor battle for dune, tiberian sun),warcraft 3,conquest frontier wars,homeworld,warzone 2100.>Phantasy StarFront mission(more of a srpg), live a live,luffia, breath of fire 3,wild arms series,treasure of rudras,energy breaker, lapas,oriental blue,linda 3.>Sonic Adventure gamesIf you are specifically looking for the super speedy style platformers, can't help you. minus sonic, there isn't much. but here are some platformer with an actual story:Klonoa 1 and 2,Tomba 2,Rayman 2,Psychonauts,Threads of fate ( interesting mix of jrpg and platformer),Pandemonium. There Is also the jet set radio, but i don't know will you like that.
>>568934684Nah I've argued with all you fags at some point and I know the differences, but in this instance I see why ciggy hates devs who lock feedback down, and why AI politicizing freaks hate people who basically replace not only their development but their whole frontal lobe with AI.
So I guess now I've got to run PadForge on multiple machines and see if I encounter the same shit. Fun. It could be my BT stack or drivers/device IDs they are fucked up too.
how do I emulate crystal meth? I'm broke and I need my fix
Okay, I just sped through 300 ether cylinders -> choose your hairstyle in an hour and a half and I think I am done with this game and any more like it. If the Japanese really think it's okay to have the same bullshit "tch, nothing personnel but I haven't unleashed my full power yet" bullshit event scene after every drawn out boss fight then I hope someone reclines a train seat into their bug face, forever.
>>568947354>anyway, time to play Spongebob's Shovelware Safari because I'm a early zoomer/late millennial who's been fetish-poisoned by western animation. Much better!
>>568947842I never got into most of these modern cartoons. Gummy Bears and Rescue Rangers was the last cartoon series I followed on TV. Didn't become a furry either.
>trying to get some retarded obscure game to work>while i have tons of games already installed that i want to play
>same shit on another machine, Steam not involved in breaking inputFuck you, you vibe coding furry faggot.
>cod but its 007
Why does Hotel Dusk make its textures look like this? No wonder no one attempts texture scaling on DS.
>>568911781On the other hand, fixing an obscure game might break something in a handful of other games.
>>568954294That's just called being shit. The games all worked on the real system.
Bring this character back. sailor uranus, King from SNK, you know what I mean.
>>568887092Requires breaking away from using the crutch that is Walker's old ass PCem code, and no one is mentally ill enough do a rewrite.

>>568944352I still need to try this, would be great for 90s PC joystick games.
>>568954693>>568956872Well what do you know, I'm playing Sakura Wars right now.
>>568658441Any way to have the PS3's PS1 and PS2 emulators output be on their native resolutions? (240p and 480i)
>god of war 3 is not on nopaystationbruh
>>568976814Nopaystation basically grab anything that is on Sony server, if the game add never been made available digitally, your fucked.
>>568976990>killzone 2-3 are also not thereomg god dude, at least ascension is in there, fucking hell
>>568976683PS3 can only go down to a minimum of 480i IIRC, so I doubt it for PS1 but PS2 should be fine (at least for some of the games, most games are actually 448i).
OK, at least infamous 1 and 2 are in there with all their dlc, jesus
is redream still recommended for dreamcast?
>>568977645DEmul is better than that paid software since you can actually play Seaman on it.
>AY, I'M FLOATING IN HERE, I'M FLOATING IN HERE!
>>568970717It's mostly good except it seems to fuck up Sony pad emulation, and he pulled a fucking Stenzek LaFrance on me when I tried to point it out.
>>568979982>what motherfuckers said global warming would do in 2020s
>>568980150>except it seems to fuck up Sony pad emulationAh, guess I'll keep using schmaldeo's DS4Win.
>>568986269That's what I'm doing, unless he fixes it after the Sabbath
>>568987458Sucks that schmaldeo Stenzek'd his own project too.
can you play gameboy/gameboy color multiplayer games from a gba flash cart?*i know the gba link cable doesnt allow multiplayer gaming to old gameboy games but there is a trick to it needing two cables. i just didnt want to draw that entire thing lel
>>568992115No, you need a GB/C flash cart, not GBA because those emulate the legacy hardware and not good enough for link cable. You also need a GB/C link cable.
You should honestly just use two GBC emulators connected via LAN. What a monstrosity. It also isn't emulation at the end of the day.
If screen-looking isn't an issue, RA's Sameboy core supports 2-player via splitscreen pretty effortlessly. Frustratingly, none of GBA cores have this functionality. The MiSTer core has this built in, even. Claude, you know what to do.
>>568977870No, never was.>>568977870>hitchmul lol fuck no, that hasn't been the go-to emulator in over a decadeIt's Flycast and it isn't even close. It also emulates the Seaman mic.
>>568950390Welcome to the emugen vortex. I have loaded games you wouldn't believe.
>>568997969>It also emulates the Seaman mic.That's awesome, gonna try it out on my Deck sometime! Sad that DEmul's the only option if you want to emulate Planet Harriers though...
>>568998792I was gonna mention that exception, but of course emugen's usually on the ball. It's not a great Hikaru emulator, but it's the only one we've got. I wish the flyinghead would take that on.
>>568733934I used it on a shitty HTPC to play P4AU before it was rereleased on modern platforms and it worked fine despite my hw being shit, which wouldn't have it possible if it infected the PC with malware that hogged the resources and fucked up System32 or w/e, so I'm inclined to bellieve a jealous fag started the rumor and gullible retards believed it.
>>568733934>>568999435>have been possibleFtfm.
>>568658441how come no reliable index for updates/dlc exists for PC emulators like it does for tinfoil?
>>569000506Bro that is an insane undertaking.
>>569002637there was like 3/4 different free shops every year for like a decade is it really that big a deal?
>>568973776Hat's going on with you?
>>568977541I wonder if there is Homebrew that can force 240p on PS3 since 480i is only on analog mode.I mean Sharpscale shows that it is possible to at least have a better scaler for PS1 games on PS Vita, I hope someone ports it to PS3 (and also forces the non-BCs PS3 PS2 Emulators to have a 1080p option) because I want to play PS1 and PS2 games with integer scaling (The PS3 has that as an option for DVD playback, so it is there).
>>569011704enable deinterlacing and meshed transparencies

man ps3 emulation is really making me jump through hoops>games are bloated to hell>direct link downloads are useless for so many games that people actually want to play since they are 40 or 35 gigabytes>download nopaystation>tons of games people actually want to play are not even there>find torrent>the game is encrypted>"ok how the fuck i do this shit google">download updates>download patchesholyyyyyyyyy
>>569027354You forgot:See dlc file being shared without rap files,making them useless.Redump has a lot of dlc without license rap.And once you get everything, the emulator is pure shit. 7th gen + emulation is just not worth the hassle minus ds/wii stuff.Also, you can download iso and keys from minerva so you don't have to decrypt anything.

>>569032453thx good lookin'
>>569033235Over your testing have you found any new favorite games? I figure if anyone has found hidden gems, it's you. PS1 or Saturn.
>insta-closed due to a lack of github forum discussionWow this guy is irritating. Butthurt about my comments here, guy?
>>569033436Casper, King's Field 2 and 3, puchi carat, Expert, on PS1. Virtua Cop and House of the Dead on Saturn but I prefer the arcade versions. Blazing Dragons as well.
Kyuutenkai on Saturn and PS1. Stuart Little on PS1 and the PS2 sequel. Muppet's Monster Adventure on PS1. Ku-on on PS2.
>>569034551FYI Blazing Dragons can be played via ScummVM. Game needed mouse support badly and ScummVM fixes this issue.
>>569034986Works fine with a controller. It's just a point and click there's no urgency.
Trag:Mission of Mercy on PS1 is great as well.
>>569035673Just feels sluggish to me and mouse has been a genre standard since King's Quest V, so... I'll be using it.
and I dunno, if they can get fucking Cheech in the game they can whip up a driver for an official peripheral that makes sense for the game. The mouse was around in the west since 1995 and the game came out in 1996.

Dumping your own NAND to emulate is the same sort of insanity as buying a Retron 5 or some sort of basedsumer cartridge loading emulation device and using your own cartridges. Absolutely silly and redundant.

DuckStation warned me of an update. When I tried to update it didn't work. I went to the site and also could not update from the exe. I don't know what's going on.
>>569046993Bro. No. Get real.
I was encountering troon profiles in the middle of nowhere on dating sites in the early 2010s. It was definitely kicking around then, and in the tech communities this cancer has been festering for ages. Burger "Becky" Heineman anyone?
It is a physical impossibility for anyone born with a vagina to care enough about the SEGA Saturn to reverse engineer it to this extent, let alone emulate a whole bunch of others and run a forum. The burden of proof really is on you here. The closest women have come to this is being a pretty face for gaming youtube channels run by their boyfriend. It is an engagement grift.
>>569047549>>569047294>>569047095ok then, how does hunterk even know xe's a troon/woman? ryphecha never announced it
>>569047761Ryphecha has definitely cleaned up his online presence in recent times. Reddit profile deleted, I don't think that username is active anywhere. It makes sense for them to be in communication as he was a core contributor, and I'm sure hunterk insisted on his behalf for a reason.

>>569049150You already know the reality of the situation, I’m just reminding you. There's nothing special or extraordinary about me, and I’m not doing anything special here either. But the people we're indirectly dealing with are fucking demonic, evil and doing horrible things to manipulate us and divert our attention from the real problems. Unless we look out for each other, we're cooked. Don't fall for the traps, I got you. But you need to do your part too.
>>569046404hunterk is the opposite of Danny: a good PR guy, who says the opposite of what's in his mind, if it's necessary to keep appearances and peace.

Emu bros, I need advice. I'm new uploading video essays (how original) and I'm wondering if I should record my footage with shaders or just raw pixels. I'm Italian and I upload my stuff in Italian so, yeah, I'm not going to bother any of you with my voice like Video Game Esooooo terica.
>>569059004only raw pixels, preferably integer scaled at least on Y axis

>>569059004Video compression RUINS shaders. so dont use shaders, because they will look like dogshot after youtube is done compressing them, even at 4k quality.Not only that, but unless you fullscreen the video and the resolution is identical to the viewers screen resolution, the scaling of the video will ruin it even more.Also, video essays are to put on in the background, not look at the screen.
is the only way to fix those white seams to put the game on the default resolution and turn on fsr?

Is there a way to have both working dpad and analog working at the same time with Saturn emulation through mednafen+mednaffe? I tried using the 3Dpad option over in the Input devices settings but it doesn't really work right, it just disables the other or doesn't work at all. Sometimes I just like having both dpad and analog that's mapping the dpad controls at the same time without needing to restart the whole damn emulator. I'm just so used to playing PS1 games on my PSP this way.
>>569073054yes its called retroarch

>>569070446Strange. I'm not able to boot into that one, though I can boot into other games. Some that I can't start in Beetle (like Black Tiger) I tried with and w/o the LLE block, and SH2 cache. What did you do differently?
>>568858853Right, so you're playing a game.A circle appears on screen.You pause the game and grab your ruler and measure it to see if it's perfectly round.It's off by a millimeter so you tear your hair out and start fiddling with the settings.Jesus fucking christ man. You're worse than the "sonic waterfalls must be transparent when i pause the game and stare at them" crowd.
>>568885569Same, because they have bug fixes and superior translations than the US versions.

is this still the case?https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Mednafen#Width_size_corrections
Honestly, it's stupid to fret and fight over. So long as you aren't going Kostas tier off model and stretching it to 16:9, it's fine. This shit was hardly a science even then. To me, these days, I want squares to be squares and circles to be circles, with a little leeway depending.
>>569090457How did 4chan fuck me on this one? It opens in the correct orientation in paint.net, the Explorer preview is portrait, and the properties clearly show 3060x4080.
>>569077568>I think they finally fixed the frame pacing in 30FPS games too.Big if true. Will test as soon as I can.
Since we're talking about aspect ratios, I always thought that, if I wanted to replicate a CRT's, all I needed to do was set it to 4:3 and done. However, some people say it's incorrect and there's some extra math involved. Like, for instance, the correct AR for the Super Nintendo would be 64:49 (!!!). Does anyone know how to explain it to this dumb anon?
Wait, why the newest version isn't the one on the top?

I am trying to get the dlc for fire emblem awakening to work on citra. I am using the nightly 1898 build because as far as I can tell it's the most recent one that will run on my antique ass pc. I installed the .cia file for the dlc using the menu, but when I try to access it in game I get an error saying it can't find a sd card. if I right click on the game in the emulator menu and click on "open dlc data location" the folder it takes me to is empty. if I back up a few levels I can see that the dlc data seems to have been installed in a different folder with a name that doesn't match the game's id. copying the files into the other folder doesn't fix the problem though. does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Wiz works in Yabause but not Mednafen or Ymir. Saturn emulation is a joke but I'm not laughing.
>>569127714wut?
>>569128783Whether Wiz or some other obscure shit works is irrelevant. The first emu to provide enough CPU headroom to runahead actually good Saturn games to 0 frames of lag wins.
>>569128783Just kill yourself, seriously. Do it.
Saturn runs at two different DARs depending on the res modeBut that is irrelevant, 90% of sat library should be ran at 1:1 PAR because artists didn't give a fuck about rectangular pixels >>569076694
>>569128872>winsHAHAHA I CAN RUN 5 GAMES AT NO LAG AND THEY ALL HAVE BROKEN GRAPHICS.Wow, so much winning.
>>569130159they don't have broken graphics already on either of the 3 emulators
Come to think of it, Striker3X is spending a tremendous amount of time and effort to make an emulator that is ~almost~ as good as mednafen. Imagine how much efficient it would be if he just set out to improve on mednafen code, which has now ceased development, instead of starting from scratch.
>>569131093Mednafen is already perfect, what is to improve?
>>569131191delulu ahh nibba
>>569131191It lacks features1. Good deinterlacer2. Faster loading3. Used to lack meshed transparencies too4. no HW renderer to free up CPU cycles + no upres
Okay, for a tie-in game that ended up having to partly do its own thing, this is a pretty big level admittedly.
>>569132239something must be done about 16:9 stretching out uisupermodel allows to retain 4:3 on ui when stretching to widescreen
>>569132337That's the game's native widescreen mode, they just sorta do it to themselves on this one.
>>569132412You mean they do jack shit to account for 16:9 for static textures many such cases on ps2

>>569152573>It's probably too complicated a troon labyrinth for anyone to improve meaningfully outside of a UX forkwhat is beetle-saturn
>>569152851Literally a UX fork. The only reason we know or care about it is because we didn't want to use that UX-less troonslop that is the standalone. See: Mupen. He also contributed to the core at one point. All these years later and we have one very small enhancement, and no SH2 or actual core Saturn emulation improvements. You'd almost have an argument with Beetle PSX.
I hate looney troons but those faggots are the only ones who spent their lives improving emulation.
and in Mupen's case, it takes a literal genius prodigy like TheMaister to improve on it. Too bad he's too autistic and anti-user as well.
>>569153020does original mednafen even have deinterlacing? if not then 2 enhancements, more to come courtesy of Claude sama
>>569153125Yeah, it really does take their perfect storm of intelligence, mental illness, and male-centric manchild tendencies to get anything done with replicating bing-wahoo toys. You will never, in a million years [Lynch-voice], see a woman do this.

>40% price increase on the shitty-on-arrival and laughably dated DeckMember when you'd get a deal on old tech? The fucking state of computers these days. The state of everything, really. It's like the elites have looked at the sea of brown faces and wiggers and have (perhaps reasonably) decided we're all 3rd world shit, to lump us in with them, our money and labor isn't worth anything, and we deserve nothing.
>>569163927have you considered that deck remained the same price, it's just USD that has devalued?
>>569164153I have, but I don't think anyone else's currency has increased in value either. I think the standards are lowering everywhere because of the brown geneslop being pumped into all 1st world nations. This will continue until ML/robots get good enough, then they'll kill/sterilize us all wholesale.
