It was a pretty old nightly (generally use older ones for playing, load new ones over the network for testing), though it was working fine for weeks before it went bad. I still reckon it's some kind of corruption or data rot in the SD card.

Ugh, but those HBL errors, seem pretty common.

@ploggy, any luck?

Hey, one dev decided to take a stab at this but he may need to ask a few questions.
If any of you can help hop in https://discord.gg/011l9DB6qWt9B4bzO

Thanks
The mian core retroarch.rpx will crash to black screen and need a hard reset if you try to use that. They have to use one of the other cores to start. (if that is what you are asking first.)


@QuarkTheAwesome I can talk in roughly 2 minutes. And say how i got mine running. lol

What are peoples' experiences with the most recent nightly like? I could move from core to core loading ROMs, but quitting a game from the menu always hard locked the Wii U with a black screen. Any time I loaded Star Fox 2 after that time I tried to resync my Pro controller while it was running has led to a DSI error (even though it worked the first time prior having to resync) - very strange.

I followed the usual practice of replacing retroarch.rpx with a renamed core (mGBA) - now reverting to 9/27 seemed to fix everything for me for the time being.

bparker06 has just pushed a patch that should fix a crash that happened during controller initialization. Let us know of any other crashes you manage to reproduce with the latest nightly (might take a few hours before the build is on the buildbot server).
Thank You guys for looking at this I'll test it out as soon as the build is up :)

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
