lr-race for Neo Geo Pocket/Neo Geo Pocket Color

@celly said in lr-race for Neo Geo Pocket/Neo Geo Pocket Color:

Lr-fbneo doesn’t want to load any roms

lr-fbneo uses romsets (see https://github.com/libretro/FBNeo/tree/master/src/burner/libretro#emulating-consoles), but again i don't think it would play nice on pi0.

the fact lr-race doesn't play nice or even any better than beetle is weird, lr-race is optimized for psp (which i believe is less powerful than a pi0), maybe its dynarec(s?) were disabled or something ?

@mitu i took a look at the core makefiles, there is an optional DRZ80=1which seems to turn on something that looks like an arm dynarec.

mitu

@barbudreadmon Thanks, it looks like this may add some speed-up.
@celly if you want to re-test with the new added option, you can re-download the scriptmodule and re-install (from source).

celly

@mitu i will, thank you @mitu!

@mitu Ok I grabbed the file again and then updated from source. Now after I launch a game, it kicks me back to Emulationstation. I’ll get the log file if you want but at this point, I’m over it. Thank you for all your help, I appreciate it.

mitu

I actually didn't test the new build option in-game. I'll give it a test later on, no need to send the log. Thanks for testing it.

@mitu I couldn’t give up. After some google-fu I found a reddit thread about it with a working script. And man I gotta tell ya, this plays so well.

mitu

@celly This is almost identical to the script I posted in the first place. There's no discernible difference that I can see.

@mitu a typo at https://github.com/cmitu/RetroPie-Setup/blob/new-race-ngp/scriptmodules/libretrocores/lr-race.sh#L41 ? (rac_libretro.so)

mitu

@barbudreadmon Hehe, good catch. Fixed now.

@celly are you sure you've tested lr-race and not one of the other cores ?

celly

@mitu yeah, pretty sure. I’ve tested them all that were available for this emulator, lr-bettle and fbneo.
