>>576980050Thanks! I'll do my best to make sure both Loonix and Winblows cores are made, not sure about Mac though since that requires a highly specific toolchain on Mac itself. (At least from what I hear.)

I have no idea why, but I came home and booted up RA, all the cores were gone, and redownloading the pc88 core magically fucking made everything workthanks anon, now where do I put that translator you linked?

>>577003405Sorry, bro. I was slow on the take. :(
so how powerful of a PC do you actually need to emulate up to, say, sixth gen? I've got an old Intel 1150 system that just needs some storage and the idea was a dedicated "Old Games" box. it's currently got my old 1070 Ti and 4690k in it, but only 8GB of RAM. could up that to 32 pretty cheap.
>>577028187I can run PS2, GameCube and Wii games on my dev computer, specs:Intel i5-7600T (5% faster than a 4790K)16GB DDR-2400nvidia GTX 1650 (a 1070 Ti is 80% faster)I haven't tested WiiU and PS3 games
>>576977790What's the go to site (torrents are fine) for PS4 roms nowadays?Everywhere I look just recommends the roms megathread which refuses to link any and bans discussion on anything past the PS3.I wanna play Gravity Rush.
why do people use frontends like emudeck?
How come 3ds emulation managed to mostly recover from citra getting killed, but switch emulation is basically no better than 3 years ago?
>>577039416Because as much as fun it is to shit on pablo, he can still do stuff.Ryujinx forks can't fix stuttering and yuzu forks can't keep adding hacks every week to fix the problems like the original dev.
>>577039416>Azahar that is just Citra with Artic Base bolted on top of it.You call that recovered?Also, Nintendo actively hunted down Switch emu and the people who made them. Citra was just a collateral damage.
>>577029242Oh, yeah, you've never told us if you're liking the Quest or not. What are your impressions? Is it immersive enough? Good battery life? Worth all around or just gimmicky for the price?

>>577044752>After pitching this idea to /emugen/ and getting told that it would be impossible to do
>>577044752So how are the subtitle being linked to what's happening in-game? Is it waiting for the cutscene to trigger through some flag? Fetching lines at the right time from a series of flags? Seems like this could be used to nigger-rig translations in a lot of games, really.
https://github.com/libretro/beetle-vb-libretro/issues/92Will Jean Claude van Danny roundhouse kick this issue?
>>577059883I just know he and Claude will. Saves me the work I was originally going to do.
>>577061901Nah definitely still do it if you can. I dunno if any of the Claude-arch fixes have been in core emulation. Just stapling on features and such.

>>577044752Cool! Seems like it'd be great for that recently-dumped Splatterhouse RPG for the NES.
>>576977790why the fuck does PPSSPP have so much inputlag on android man?all the retroarch cores run fucking flawlessly even with vsync on with the run ahead options
>>577079487Already has a translation patch.
>>577080467Awesome, I'll look into it one of these days!
>>577028187"Up to sixth gen" is hard to say.Because some PS2 games run on a potato, but some need a NASA super computer to get a stable frame rate.
>>577054945>So how are the subtitle being linked to what's happening in-game?My Mednafen fork intercepts all commands issued to the CD drive that say something like "jump to the sector at logical block address xxxx on the CD and read it" and checks if there is a subtitle associated with that address.Let's say we have an entry like this:$12345@2000 SUPER SPOOKY CASTLE IV: NOSFERATU'S REVENGE+3000 The last vampire bat is in captivity.+1500 Transylvania is at peace.When the game issues the command "jump to and read sector 12345 from the CD," mednafen will see that I've attached a subtitle to that address, start a countdown that lasts 2,000 milliseconds, then show the title message.3,000 milliseconds after that message, it'll show the message "The last vampire bat is in captivity."1,500 ms after THAT message, it'll show the message "Transylvania is at peace."I haven't implemented this for cartridge-based games, but it could probably work there too, at least for old ones like SNES and so on.Note that the only actually emulation-related part of mednafen I had to touch was the CD drive emulation, which is why it automatically runs in all the CD-ROM-based consoles it supports, and I did not have to go into the weeds of how each console's processor etc. functions internally.The way I designed the syntax, where the first letter of a line determines the line's function, also makes it possible to write extremely efficient parsers for this in a few lines of assembly, using a jump table.That's why I'm so optimistic that it could even be implemented in physical consoles with hardware mods:Intercept the messages that go to the CD, have a tiny microcontroller process them and read subtitles from a bit of flash memory, then patch the console's output signal to show text messages.Also, it doesn't have to be just subtitles. I envisioned this format having different tiers, where in upper tiers you could also program it to send rumble events, show pics etc.
>>577084775nta, but thank you, anon! It's always great to see good solutions coming around.
>>577041531I bought this thing for 120 bucks, at that price it would've been a good purchase even if it could only play Walkabout Minigolf and Thrill of the Fight.Haven't had this much fun in quite a while, it kind of rekindled my love for vidya.I slightly regret that I didn't get a Pico 4 for just a little bit more.>Good battery life? no, it's atrocious. I had to buy a battery pack which I now carry around with me during multiplayer sessions, which works fine for minigolf but not for action games.
asking it again because I got no answer on the past thread, but now is a different question: where do I get ique player roms? I'm trying to run some roms that I got from the internet archive but they don't run on gopher64

>>577083436>but some need a NASA super computer to get a stable frame rate.Examples? Not doubting you, I've just yet to run into a game my main PC couldn't run upscaled at least 4x (1080 equivalent). Then again, my main PC is a Ryzen 9 5900x, so I might be a tad biased. My GFX card isn't much better, though (2060 Super).
>>577092696Haven't ran it in ages but IIRC ZOE2 had some really heavy parts. Perhaps it's more optimized these days and/or CPUs are just better. Unrelated to PCSX2 but if you wanna see some truly awful performance, check out Rogue Squadron 3 in Dolphin, especially the Revenge of the Empire stage.
What's the verdict on fantasy console emulators/emulating hardware upgrades?
>>577095546I think they're really cool, but it'd be even cooler if there was a way to make a workable Loonix binary out of M2's Mark V emulator.
>>576958317This phone has a ~450dpi display and is absolutely god tier for emulation.I figured out the issue, there's a setting that changes the shaders to act on a per frame basis, it's called sub frame sometingThere's a 2nd option for rolling scanline but that breaks everything.Then CRT Guest comes in and the result is flawless and beyond beautiful. Gameboy and NES especially look amazing.
>>577091209please emubros help me on this one (the wiki doesn't clarify about that)
>>577099537Chinese websites? May also need a VPN to torrent
>Vulkan ubershaders no longer seem broken in DolphinThought I'd never see the day.
>>577099871Now if only Dolphin would work with Steam Remote play, I can't get it to detect the streamed in controller inputs at all, even if I do the trick of hooking up 2 controllers to my PC first and swapping in the new 3rd one. Also not sure if my friend was only seeing a black screen, it's been a while.Too bad there's no retro arch core really.
>>577095546Aftermarket hardware upgrades and custom chips for dead console are gay in general, just like new games are. Let them rest in peace.

Yesterday I was fighting Yunalesca in LRPS2 and she was facing wrong direction because of inaccurate EE float calculationsI sufferReliquary doesn't work because I'm on 5070To this day, you can't properly emulate FFX
It's over. The end of the last Mega Man game. Rock kills Wily and the former is arrested for ableism. There's a huge robot scare and the government bans all machines, except for politicians and millionaires. No more games were man. A fitting modern ending for this classic series.
>>577130912Is this still your vibe-coded pr for PCSX2?
>>577143898You can still use regular ass GSDX with reliquary. Use it for that fight... Unless the saves are not compatible between standalone and shart, it wouldn't surprise me.Also, I'm pretty all those problems are caused by the crt update from PGS. Since LRPS2 never bothered to implement that because of RA extensive sharder support, that may be the reason why you don't have problem with it.
>>577150010>you can still use regular ass GSDX with reliquaryit can't scale 2d sprites properly

My tokens finally reset, so I'm now brainstorming how I should get these damn lines not to appear in Dragon Hopper. Last time I checked, VBjin and Red Viper didn't have those issues, so hopefully they serve as a good reference for a hack I'm about to implement for Beetle VB. Is Dragon Hopper the only newly-discovered game with graphical issues, or does Zero Racers have issues too?
Looks like I won't be using VBjin as a reference after all, it's actually worse than Mednafen/Beetle VB and still has those line issues.
Who would've thought some guy on the Android side of Reddit would be the most helpful for my testing endeavors? This whole DSP thing was giving me a headache, and I can't thank the dude enough.https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/comments/1jmpac6/comment/mkoc8on/

Holy fucking shit, Claude actually did it! Looks like I'll have to start building some libretro cores and upload them here.

>>577217926Legendary, anon.
>>577194045>>577194579>>577194274I've found the Wii version easiest to manipulate into 240p with scanlines, but it's a process no matter what. PC version has fucked scaling too. Game unironically needs one of those memecomps.
>>577219710Guess it's worth a vibecode attempt with DolRecomp, though I'm not sure how well that'll pan out.https://github.com/ExpansionPak/DolRecomp
https://github.com/bonelag/STranslator/actions/runs/30341944263This guy's LunaTranslate fork alllmost replaces Interpreter for overlaid/in-place J-to-Eng translation, but has too many bugs in practice and isn't nearly as seamless as Interpreter. It does produce better translation results, though.

Literally what is the point of a recomp when it's no different from running it in an emulator? Decomps sound way better to me.
>>577306259>coping
>>577307502>Decomps sound way better to me.Probably because they're WAY more involved. I'm sure LLMs could probably do those too if you pointed them to headless versions of Ghidra/IDA, but it's a lot easier to get a hacky recomp implemented.
>>577307502One nice thing about them is that they're a little easier to link to dumb broads you want to introduce old games to. Not that you can't do this with most emulators, but you could very easily make a zip file or installer with the game, recomp, batch file, and shortcut to it on the desktop. I think a lot of people freeze up at emulator setup and see it as too much work. There's also the chance they won't have the shader comp issues and bugs emulators might have even under the best circumstances. Overall, I find the pretty redundant and in the worst cases inferior to conventional emulation, but a good recomp/decomp with unique features is respectable especially if the platform it's on sucks to emulate.
Github seems to be broken, but after many F5, I managed to download SkyEmu and it seems the save for my GBA game is compatible, even if I didnt download the BIOS, I hope is going to be fine.
Is picrel still worth using if it hasn't been updated in over two years? I mostly wanna use it with Mednaffe for PC Engine and PSX since I'm sick of RetroArch's UI.
>>577319287>Is picrel still worth using if it hasn't been updated in over two years?If the lack of an upstream Dragon Hopper fix is any indication, it's probably not worth using. (At least for Virtual Boy.)
