Hacking Emulation RetroArch/Libretro Thread: PS Vita Edition! Nightlies Included

[Lineacero]

@frangarcj. Thanks for adding two cores, especially Vice! very nice

Why exactly is it that the Vita barely performs better than the PSP w/ certain Retroarch cores? Perhaps the 400mHz CPU? I would imagine parallel coding to utilize the 4-cores is much more daunting of a task than throwing more hertz at the thing, but I'm not sure if that's why.

No one optimizes retroarch to run better on the ps vita. it just gets ported over like every other system gets a port of retroarch. I'm guessing the only systems that retroarch gets optimized on are pc, mac, android, and ios. Goodluck with anything else.

Can anyone shed some light on why I can't save TG-16 Bonk's Revenge? Beetle PCE Fast is the core. I click on save state and it acts like it is saving to slot #0, then resets. If I then go to Load State it just starts like a reset as well. Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance
Edit Nevermind

Saves work for SNES 2005, I am puzzled.

Are you on sd2vita through Mlthaku?

Sorry I didn't mention that I use PSTV. Enso and a usb stick. I was still on 1.6.9 and updated to 1.7.0 and no change.
Update- I was able to save sometimes but not every time. Does still reset on occasion, not sure why.

Can't seem to find the controls-to-keyboard translator thingy (called the keymapper or something similar) in the DOSbox core in the latest stable.

New retroarch 1.7.1 yeahhhhh

Doesn't look like it built properly.
https://buildbot.libretro.com/stable/1.7.1/playstation/vita/ has a retroarch.vpk that's 3421 KB
https://buildbot.libretro.com/stable/1.7.0/playstation/vita/ has a retroarch.vpk that's 93917 KB

v1.7.1 is still broken. :/
Specifically, the delay in initializing controls, broken networking, and broken Cheevos.

You are dealing with MAME2000/2003 Roms and Drivers on a Vita. About as good as it is going to be until someone develops a later Build of MAME for the Vita.

 

[saenfry]

does cps3 still laggy?

 

[Smoker1]

Wondering: I am trying to create Cheats for a few Cores, but I can not get VitaCheat or even GoHANmem to come up. I take it this can not be done on the Vita?

 

[Imhullu]

How well does Doom work with prboom? Is there sound? How does it all work?

 

[rsn8887]

It works very nicely with music and sound.

I wrote a post about it (how to install etc.) here on wololo:

Hello everyone. I have a problem with the core Spectrum-fuse ,, When loading a spectrum rom for the first time, it loads it well, but if I want to change the spectrum-fuse game either by looking for it or looking for it, it gives me an error and closes me retroarch .. Can someone confirm it please? Thank you.

Don't know about that specific core, but I don't get problems changing games. You need to close the game you are playing, then open a new one.
