Is Yabasanshiro emulator coming on retropie?

[grant2258]

@roslof i assume youve done all this

sudo apt install git cmake qtbase5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev libqt5opengl5-dev libopenal-dev libsdl2-dev
git clone https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause.git
cd yabause
git clone https://github.com/firebase/firebase-cpp-sdk.git -b v6.11.0 yabause/src/qt/firebase-cpp-sdk
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DYAB_PORTS=qt ../yabause

what i need you to do is goto cd yabuse where ever you cloned it

rm  .gitignore
git clean -Xfd
git clone https://github.com/firebase/firebase-cpp-sdk.git -b v6.11.0 yabause/src/qt/firebase-cpp-sdk
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DYAB_PORTS=qt ../yabause

edit changed this up a little due to the git ignore so all build directories clear as well

@grant2258 having trouble compiling, even after installing the libraries you listed above. Getting:

CMake Error at src/qt/CMakeLists.txt:27 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindQt5WebEngineWidgets.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
  project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "Qt5WebEngineWidgets", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by
  "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" with any of the following names:

    Qt5WebEngineWidgetsConfig.cmake
    qt5webenginewidgets-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
  or set "Qt5WebEngineWidgets_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above
  files.  If "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" provides a separate development package or
  SDK, be sure it has been installed.

I'm only a little smarter than stupid, so was planning to try running the executable posted by myzar a bit later, along w/his sample config.

I had to switch to the standard buster repo to install that dep i cursed it alot

@myzar is it not on the repo ? I need to grab a pi4 at some point.

[mechafatnick]

@myzar I'm glad it wasn't me! Thought I was Going mad :D

I couldn't get it to compile (probably because I needed to change repo!) but I managed to get the binary up and running. Thanks guys!

[roslof]

@mechafatnick would you mind sharing the steps to setup run the binary?

[mechafatnick]

@roslof I downloaded the binary Myzar kindly compiled: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/223836

Then added his run command to the saturn emulators.cfg:

@myzar There is also the build option based on https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause/tree/master/yabause/src/retro_arena with minimalistic ui (no qt required).

[pjft]

@barbudreadmon That should indeed work but, alas, from a few (incompetent) tries on my end and a few others we always hit an "unable to create EGL surface" message on launch. Fairly sure it's a compiler flag thing, but alas never managed to move past that.

Folks using xinit: you may want to create a file in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/named, for instance, 10-monitors.conf(or add to it) the following:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "Monitor0"
    Option "DPMS" "false"
EndSection

Section  "ServerFlags"
    Option "BlankTime"  "0"
    Option "StandbyTime" "0"
    Option "SuspendTime" "0"
    Option "OffTime" "0"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier "ServerLayout0"
    Option "StandbyTime" "0"
    Option "SuspendTime" "0"
    Option "OffTime"     "0"
    Option "BlankTime"   "0"
EndSection

At least on my end the screen would always turn off after 10 mins, when the X power saving features hit. This should disable them - and there are probably unnecessary flags there as well.

I've tried but it doesn't start i get

Fail to SDL_GL_CreateContext Bye! (Could not create EGL context (call to eglCreateContext failed, reporting an error of EGL_BAD_MATCH))

maybe because it's for xu4 not sure i'm not skilled enough :(

[myzar]

anyone can figure out how to hack the source to quit with a button rather than with a key ? I looked in the source but i can't find where is comparing with the keyevent , qt is also alien for me, i did that for the sega model 3 emu but i'm bashing my head without luck with yaba

if your using the pc.cmake comment out set (USE_EGL True) or unset it from your command line. I had to update nanovg as well

Also, Retro Arena paid devmiyax to port it to the XU4

Surely we could pool enough money to pay him too? Indigogo or something? Seems reasonable that he would want to be paid for his time.

I've tried without and i get a gl error GlxBadFBConfig , but this still uses xorg just not qt , so i don't think it's worth to waste more time with it

[grant2258]

@myzar would need a pi4 to test stuff to be honest not sure how all the gl is setup pi4 end will look at it if i ever get one!

fwiw this is what the default behavior is set too
option(YAB_FORCE_GLES20 "force to use OpenGLES 2.0" ON)
if (YAB_FORCE_GLES20)
set(GLSystem "OpenGL ES 2.0")
else(YAB_FORCE_GLES20)
set(GLSystem "Desktop OpenGL")
endif(YAB_FORCE_GLES20)

I tried the prebuilt 64bit yabause qt that you can get on the 64bit version of the pi os. 1950Mhz overclock. Sega rally. 45-50fps when racing.
lr-yabasanshiro on retropie = 30-40fps when racing.
I didn't try the 32bit version (if available) from the 32bit version of the pi os.

Is 64bit being looked into for retropie?

[pjft]

@Darksavior did you try the current 32-bit binary and compare? I'd be keen on seeing Mame performance on 64-bit though.

[Darksavior]

@pjft No, it wasn't available in the pi os repo.

[pjft]

@Darksavior sorry - I was referring to the yabasanshiro 32-bit binary here from the thread:)

I get fairly good performance overall - some games are better than others, but definitely a solid improvement over the lr- core in terms of squeezing a bit more performance from the pi.

Glad to see you testing out the 64-bit OS, looking forward to your impressions.

looks like devmiyax pushed 3.2.4 to github , this is the compiled bin

https://mega.nz/file/6t8xCDzL#WNdDaBFPvpDkzFHtWzfltPD6wu4z3MT0QjMNEf2vFak

Thats some good news I get a feeling he releases source after a few beta tests to fix bugs to get a somewhat stable code for people to compile. Im glad to see he working on need to test out the golden axe fix using the qt version on my linux desktop
