@mdarr007 said in 64 bit Retropie for Dolphin?:

Anyway it seems Dolphin is not available to me on my new Pi4 for some reason

As @sleve_mcdichael mentioned, installation needs a 64bit OS and also a recent OS. Do note that the Pi4 is underpowered for running Dolphin (Gamecube or Wii games) and the games will not run fullspeed on the system.

@mitu Oh that's good to know ! I tried running it on the non-Lite, thinking I wanted to avoid missing libraries and the likes (and that for my box64 testing purposes, it was probably best to have a full GUI available), but it probably created issues instead. I'll definitely do that then, project's back on track :) Main issue I had was when compiling MAME libs, any idea if it's still a massive RAM hog ? (if so I had precompiled them anyway, but the compile is probably quite outdated now)

Also just realized, had I double posted ? My first attempt to submit left the page blank and hanging, and when I clicked back to the forum's main page, I was shown my own post, still ready to submit, so I assumed it was a saved draft, sorry for that if it ended up being a double !

@Lolonois Thanks for the guide link too :) Gonna come in handy !

@ranaday789 With the pi I want to squeeze every bit of performance I can and 64bit can be slightly faster than 32bit if the emulator is properly made for it.

In my tests, I'm not sure if it's 64bit or if it's bullseye (I didn't try 32), but I got a significant boost with lr-snes9x on my pi3b+. This is with the few alterations I did to the retropie-setup script so it's not properly optimized.

Here are some benchmarks though they're from benchmarks apps and not emulators:

Who here would be excited to emulate 3DS? I think we probably would have enough power to do so with overclock. I’m basing my assumption on the fact we can run some GameCube games at full speed with overclock on 64 bit

@ioortropie

Based on your previous answers it sounds like PulseAudio is not starting on its own.

Try systemctl --user enable pulseaudio in the terminal, and reboot.

If you still have no audio please post the output of pacmd list-sinks.

@mitu Thanks again for your help.
It appears to be every Emulator, nothing is working now. Will start again and hope it works.

so , the only benefit to run retropie on 64bit system (on raspberry) is use dolphin-emu

Check out this thread if you really want to push for Gamecube on the Pi.
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/28459/latest-gamecube-developments-on-pi4

From reading that, some games work ok, but many others are not likely to run well enough to enjoy playing them. Running Dolphin is a pretty big job for a Pi 4.

EDIT: As development continues on the various drivers and even Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit, this situation could improve. But keep in mind many of these things are outside of the control of the RetroPie project.

Is there a non-interactive way to run the retropie setup script?

Anche io ho stesso problema ho netbook n130 con Ubuntu 16 lt e ultima versione di retropie 4.5 ma in tutti i packetstage non trova Daphne per installazione..Qualcuno ha risolto o può aiutare?

I tried it on a 32-bit installation of ubuntu and I must say it runs okay. However I don't know if it is really Dolphin 5.0.
It says "Dolphin f94cd57".
