I tried Mortal Kombat II under MAME 0.78 3dsx on my N3DS and I'm getting about 40 fps in fights. Pretty good!

Would it benefit from kernel access in a cia build?

Not really. If the CPU cores in MAME had dynarecs, then yeah, but at the moment they don't.

How would launching it under something such as Xenoblade turn out?
Probably not well; pdapanda tried that unsuccessfully a while back:
Well, it works with Smashbros too,but won‘t work with Xenoblade3D
Depending on what the exact issue was preventing it working, you might be able to launch MAME 2000 under Xenoblade, since it doesn't need as large a .text, but FBA and MAME 2003 are probably out of the question.

What emulator are you playing this on, is PCE fixed?

It's on MAME 2000 emulator

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

What is the FPS ingame? How is the sound?


So far on MAME 2000 has the BEST sound and FPS is near Perfect it's like 59fps

So that's pretty good!

Awesome. Splatterhouse 3 is my fav of them all and runs decently on the Genesis core.

Do you notice an appreciable difference between MAME 2000 and 2003?

neogeo/cps2 testbuilds:
http://buildbot.libretro.com/.aliaspider/ra_test_01_11_2015.7z

can you try some of those games that didn't work before ?
I am completely off pace with how fast this thread updated the last few days.

Questions:

  • Is there newer build for the neo geo and CPS2 of the post I quoted
  • Does the new build added to the nightly build link on the OP or these are different
  • Is there we can organize for easy to track these build?

The improvents in the test build were applied to the nightlies.

I hope there is a save for rotation, the screen display the vertical roms correctly only when the rotation is disabled.

I've just tested Abe's Odyssey. The cutscenes run at 45-47 FPS. Gameplay seems to be full speed at 59 FPS.
The pcsx tests continue,

Heart of Darkness : cutscenes at 51-52 FPS, gameplay full speed at 59 FPS

My only concern with this emulator is that even at full speed, the sound is crackling almost all the time with all the games, which is pretty annoying.

I just tried Mega Zone (Konami) with MAME 2000, and it worked great. You just need to screw around with the video settings a bit, and turn on bilinear filtering. It's blurry, but quite playable. I suspect it'll be the same way for other vertical games. No more having to turn your 3DS sideways!

What is "samples"? I mean I'm using FBA (N3DS, 9.2 in .cia) and I have interest in it. I understood that it is small pictures of each games? So I could select my games in FBA with pictures and not lines of text?
Someone can try to teach me how?
Thanks, guys.

    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
