Raspberry Pi 4B 4GB and the Sega Saturn
-
@dreamcastkid said in Raspberry Pi 4B 4GB and the Sega Saturn:
no frame skipping on or flickering fireballs
One of those statements is false.
Just to be clear, the fireballs must flicker, they do in all 2D street fighters afaik, flickering was an effect used to fake transparency before 3D systems, it is about showing an element for 1 frame then not showing it in the next one, and repeat.
If your fireballs don't flicker, then that means the frames when the fireball is invisible are skipped, and you have frameskip on. -
@barbudreadmon Sorry, but that video was horrible. I compiled a version of Yabause/Sanshiro last year/early this year and played Sega Rally significantly better than that and that was just a goof to see what was could be done.
see link below.
So don't get too down based on that video.
Found the old thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/24568/is-yabasanshiro-emulator-coming-on-retropie/268?_=1613102464587
Follow the instructions there(you will have to piece them together somewhat but its not that hard) and you should be able to build a standalone yabause/yaba sanshiro that plays sega rally decently. Not completely without frame skip but way better than that video shows.

I know the situation, actually i was the one who recommended to use standalone and to forget about the libretro core i wrote.
With standalone version it will be significantly faster :- because you won't have to go through the libretro api for gl rendering, the most significant overhead you'll get with a libretro core over its standalone version is when opengl/gles is involved
- because standalone version of yabasanshiro is offloading part of the rendering to a subthread, which is something impossible to do with the libretro api
-
@barbudreadmon How do you go about installing the standalone core on the pi 4?
-
@zering clone the pi4 branch with
git clone https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause.git -b pi4then follow the steps at https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause/tree/pi4/yabause/src/retro_arena#retropie-on-raspberry-pi-4 to build it ? -
@barbudreadmon Thanks. I've successfully cloned the branch but when I try the first cmake command I get a bash command not found error. Is it possible there's an error in the syntax?
-
@zering i think that command line expects you to run https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause/tree/pi4/yabause/src/retro_arena#get-source-code first
-
@barbudreadmon Thanks, I got it working. Very impressed with the results. Finally I can play Panzer Dragoon Saga again!
-
I followed the instructions to install standalone yabasanshiro for my Pi 4, and it's up and running. I tried a couple of games, and they work great! However I'm having one minor issue I'm hoping for help with. It says in the README that select is hard mapped to Show/Hide Menu, but even after mapping select manually through keymapv2.json in ~/.yabasanshiro, it's not recognizing select on my controller. I can only open the menu with Esc on a keyboard. Also, I need to use a mouse to navigate or interact with the Yabasanshiro menu. Is it possible to do this with just a controller? Sorry if this is a dumb question or one that has already been answered.
-
@zering I've done something wrong here.
Is this the order of code?
$ apt update $ apt install -y git python-pip cmake build-essential protobuf-compiler libprotobuf-dev libsecret-1-dev libssl-dev libsdl2-dev libboost-all-dev $ git clone https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause.git $ cd yabause $ git submodule update --init --recursive $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake ../yabause -DGIT_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/git -DYAB_PORTS=retro_arena -DYAB_WANT_DYNAREC_DEVMIYAX=ON -DYAB_WANT_ARM7=ON -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../yabause/src/retro_arena/pi4.cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/retropie/emulators/yabause/ $ make $ sudo make installI get all kinds of errors on the cmake line:

@adambegood you need to add
-b pi4to the git clone command -
Hey
im trying to update lr-yabasanshiro
But im getting this error -
Help ? :) -
@barbudreadmon Okay, thank you so much. I could have realised that, it was written elsewhere.
I've deleted the home/pi/yabause directory, but I still get
root@retropie:~# git clone https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause.git -b pi4 fatal: destination path 'yabause' already exists and is not an empty directory.Any idea how I reset that? Thanks very much for the help.

Help ? :)I think this is dealt with previously, if you scroll up. It rings a massive bell to me.

I already have it
i just cant update it -

Hey
so im trying to install the stand alone
following that
https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause/tree/pi4/yabause/src/retro_arena#get-source-code
but im getting errors
already at the startpi@retropie:~ $ apt update Reading package lists...

so its wierdAre you 100% sure you are logged in as root? I am pretty sure it would say root@retropie if you were, and those errors look like you're not also..
