Retrix(LibretroRT) is a massive project aimed at porting all libretro cores to UWP. It currently supports Nes,Snes,Sega Master System,Sega Game gear, Sega CD, sg 1000, Playstation, Gameboy, Gameboy advance, and many more to be ported soon. This guide will cover installing Retrix for your xbox one console.


[1.] Download ProjectPgeasus (If you already have ProjectPegasus this step doesn't apply)
https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/raw/master/ProjectPegasusSetup.exe





[2.] Once Installed just open it up and select RetriX. Now just wait for it to download. All you have to do now is Sideload Retrix on to your Xbox One (If you don't know how, follow the full guide here https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/blob/master/binaries/Installing APPX Packages.pdf )

[3.] Enjoy! :yayone:

Retrix brings with it support for local 2 player something we have not had until now. It also opens the floodgates to every single emulator that is currently inside the scope of the libretro project. You can see a full list here https://github.com/libretro

I had been sitting on releasing Retrix for quite a bit now but it has finally reached a point where it is stable enough for release. Credit goes to Albertofustonini for creating and maintaining the Retrix Project. Credit also goes to @kingtut for advocating for a Libretro/Retroarch port for Xbox One. You can follow current development on the official github page https://github.com/Aftnet/LibretroRT

Hello guys!!

Firstly I would like to congratulate @Absestos for the emulator: its awesome!!

I've been trying to play some PSX games (on Xone) and had some problems. The same happened to CPS2 (Final Burn) games. So I wanted to know:

Is it possible to list the ROMs extension compatibility for each system?

Thanks in advance!!

Yes thats true that they run really slowly and thats so sad as it could be the best emulator in retrix app. It could be amazing if someone tried to make psx emulator with pcsx source code as its the only one working emulator on xbox one so far. Problem is that only those programmers from xb1emu have done it yet.

Oh that's a shame man, I thought the emulator was a lil bit more mature :(

Btw the problem I was having with PSX games were the slow motion and the FB I'm using a zip file but it seems doesn't work with the version I have.

The web console accepts the appxbundle retrix file but not the dependencies zip as i think it needs a proper extension now instead of zip. Anyone know the solution. I get a framework dependency failure.

Open the zip you will get the x64 dependencies

you can install them at the dev portal which is your console ip + port number it shows you on the dev menu on the xbox one
