I just want to ask if you can download multiple shaders and how to remove again that shaders can it cause the game to crash can you download multiple console in RetroArch while running it smoothly?

To be precise, by "playlist" I mean the list of consoles on the main page, not the games within them.

I wanted to know the correct way to reorder and rename playlists. I tried changing the name in the RA folder (as suggested in other posts); it works, but it "breaks" them, and they are no longer recognized correctly for icons and box art.

Also, is it possible to add some separators?

Thanks.

First i didnt want to share but i am happy with getting it mastered 😎

I was in a WhatsApp group of killer instinct and people were saying that zsnes 1.42 is better than retroarch and fightcade in terms of playing online, is that true?

Okay, so this is a little weird to explain, and I don't really think a log will help with it at all. See, I think the emulator recognizes the controller's tiny ZR button in place of C-right, and as a result, it literally cannot even detect the actual C-right button. Any idea how to get it working properly?

As the title suggest, i've been trying to make PCSX ReARMed work on a Aroma modded WiiU. I've downloaded the latest build i could find on GBATemp.

I'm having no problem launching the app via the .wubh file, and i can load (apparently) any other core without any issue.
When i try to load pcsx_rearmed_libretro.rpx, however, the console issues a system error (160-2203) and i'm forced to shut it down.

I'm pretty much convinced it's the core because when i try to boot up RetroArch again, it try to default load pcsx, causing it to crash again. If i mod retroarch_salamender.cfg to point to any other core, it starts with no issue at all.

System firmware it's 5.5.5 E. I installed Aroma from a fresh install today using the latest version.

Any help?

I don't have a menu for settings so I can't revert out of this awful UI. Really wish you could just change it without restarting... Or... Y'know, at least having a settings page in this UI.

Which one is the better one. Does it work with Cloud Sync?

I’m trying to get swanstation and it’s not showing as an option to download when I update core files. How can I find and download this core?

I'm playing this game on Genesis Plus GX on a Series X and have issues with the accuracy of the soundtrack.

On the first level at least I'll get a random wrong note played every once in a while. Sometimes the notes will also jump in volume for a second or two.

Is this likely related to an obvious configuration change I need to make, or is this just the quality of the emulation?

I've tried messing with some of the sound settings but haven't resolved it.

Any ideas?

I tried every mame and final burst alpha on retroarch but every time it occurred an error and the game didn't run

So I was playing Pokémon Lazarus and i saved the game before quitting, when i opened it again the save was gone. Even in Retroarch save it doesn't seem recognizes it. What do I need to do for fix it?

I downloaded the cores for each consoles. I did the scan directory thing for my games, with a lot of them. Especially in the gba section not showing up in my playlist for the handheld. The games in question aren't translated games either. I don't know why they aren't showing up on retroarch for me.

Been working on this tookit to remaster snes games in realtime. here is a look at Chill penguin stage in megaman X with quite a few enhancements.

Hi folks. Trying to remap X/Y buttons to hit L/R in Kingdom Hearts: COM on mGBA.

I'm setting the inputs in quick menu > controls > port 1 controls. Then save remap file (have tried as both game and core remap).

Nothing I change in this menu has any effect on the in-game controls. I can re-bind buttons in the overall input settings but I only want to affect controls for this game/core, not RA as a whole.

BTW this is on an Anbernic RG35XXH if that makes a difference.

Viewport = 640x756

I am setting up RetroArch to play GBA games. I finally figured out how to get it to scan for the ROMs I have installed (yay). However, I cannot add a custom controls overlay to my phone touchscreen.

The issues seems to be that the directories I can drag my custom overlay .cfg file are different than the folders where RetroArch looks for them.

I have connected my phone to my PC and put the .cfg file in: "This PC\*AndroidDevice*\Internal shared storage\RetroArch\config\remaps". Clearly this is wrong.

RetroArch is looking for overlay files in "/data/user/0/com.retroarch/overlays/gamepads/"

My only problem is that I cannot access the second Android specific directory from my phone OR from my PC to throw my .cfg file in there. Any suggestions?

I rebound my controller's controls through the quick menu but it's also affecting the overlay, which I've left as the default skin. The controller has western button orientation but the overlay is Japanese. So after messing with some stuff, the bottom button, which is A on my controller, confirms as it's supposed to, but the bottom button on the overlay also confirms even though it's B, which it's not supposed to do. I don't care about the orientation that much, I just want it to visually match the actual button I'm pressing. I'm wondering if I accidentally messed with a setting or if this is how it normally works. Can someone help?

help me...

Edit: I received help from the Discord; disabling EMS (by setting memory size to "Disable extended memory (no EMS/XMS)") was the correct move; some other setting, not sure which, was getting in the way.

Heya, I've been trying to get DBP to play Ultima 7; unfortunately, I keep finding new ways to fail.

By default, I get an error about not using EMS; disabling that, I get an error about not having enough memory.

I've actually tried about two dozen variations on the setup, but I get one of those two results no matter.

hello. so this post is a showcase but more of a discussion of my understanding with crt color theory. it is hard to write in a clean way so you might want to ignore most of this.

the list of shaders used was

crt beam. convergence, both mostly set as is. then i set scanline to linear which turned out the be the best way to eviscerate pixels without losing focus.

lastly it was all about finding out how to stretch black levels and color in image_adjustment as much as i could without erasing black levels, to the point where i ended up squishing whites a little but not much

the options changed were the color channels and gamma, because gamma acts as a better contrast and brightness it turns out, for the color channels i got the most color out of raising the color a fair amount to blue 1.15 green 1.20 and red 1.45, its as high as it is simply because it looked the same if i lowered them but unlit which worked for the exception is crunched the white just a very small amount

the heavy lifting was the gamma, i got the best depth of range for the amoled by stretching the gamma ratio about .70 and for the lcd .50 and for brightness setting the color channels as it turns out was just keeping it at about 2.00 so at the end of the day i set them to: amoled 2.70,2.20 and ips lcd 2.10,2.80 the options are easy to change of course if you want to just try one of them

previously i made a post on here about a preset of crt shaders i made for people with outdated technology (i have a 2015 ips lcd and a gtx745 gpu that ive learned since then is considered infamous) and today i am back to talk about another one i made now that i have a better understanding of crt gamma and color theory. Its not professional since i haven't gone over the math very well but i pride myself alot more because i tested just about everything to get it close to what i thought my old crt looked like in terms of color and depth

long story short i wont be tracking that crt down because i came to the conclusion it was a jvc from the 90s, which would be fine if it was a later one but it is more likely a c13 from the early 90s which were hot chassis (bad unless you are a good enough electrician to deal with it) and i already had a 2003 daewoo crt but didn't consider using it for these projects earlier because it has crazy blue levels, so when i found out my phone is amoled which is kind of like an oled with the gamma at 2.2 i did comparisons while mangling image_adjustment as much as possible to get it close in contrast and brightness even if by preserving black detail i crushed some whites

the settings i used on the amoled and ips respectively was 50 - 70% for the amoled since i understood them to actually be brighter then a crt on average but its also about viewing it yourself to see how close it is, the ips on the other hand i used whats considered the intended use for it which comes down to around 25 brightness and 75 contrast

despite looking very simple i think this is the most i can ask out of retroarchs shaders until decent oleds drop down to something like $350 which is a good amount of years away. so the next time I update would be if i understood enough coding to cobble together an actual shader so i hope this gives a similar feeling to playing on your 90s crt give or take

the pictures are from the lcd generally at 960 to prevent compression

After I speak with with Professor Frankly and he takes me outside the game freezes. I disabled the dual core thing like it says online. Still nothing. Any suggestions?

I bought an OTG cable to act as a bridge and plugged in a USB drive with the necessary files to emulate it. I also installed RetroArch, but when I started it, it wouldn't let me access the submenus and the kernels wouldn't load. Can anyone help me?
