@TPR Hi i just tried it, too. But i had a strange outcome:

I don't know what that means, but the emulator is running (and quite well, from the few games I tried).

HotD still has no sound, though. Maybe you can point me to other problematic games and I try those? I don't have High Velocity to try...

i found out what to do, with esc of keyboard i open the menu of emulator and there i can config

thanks

@mitu Ah thanks for the advice. Turns out I only have the Pi3 so even if I could somehow set up the thing to recognise I had a Saturn emulator on it, it's like you said it more than likely wouldn't run very well or even at all. And to think I spent all afternoon browsing the thing's files to try and find a backdoor. Oh well. Sticking to pre 1995 consoles for now it seems.

@sleve_mcdichael Thank you so much!!! I will definitely give this a go once I returned home from work.

edit: It works and now I am able to update to 4.8. Thank you so much!!!

@dankcushions said in Questions about yabasanshiro standalone emulator:

@projectfirestart sega rally works for me

I have to rectifiy this a little, it works in fact, but i have a crash when race begin that i can't trace, it happens first time i load game, then crash to Emulation Station, if i run game again it seems to work.
I am unable to find a specific pattern, happens both championship and time attack mode. It's weird but it happened also on libretro version and issue seems gone once enabled HLE Bios, but standalone version dosn't have that option...

@barbudreadmon thank you very much

Resolved!
I changed the ppa directory of the video drivers, and updated the mesa and the vulkan, I noticed that there was an update of the video drivers, then I updated the retropie. Thank you all.

@DeFarro said in lr-yabause stopped working after system update:

here is my error

Yeah, as i said, the "drive is empty" message meant it was unable to read your dump for some reason :).
It might be worth mentioning, i backported dump format support from kronos to yabause last year, which means it supports chd, cue/bin in a zip, and cue with multiple bins

@kam3chan said in How to install Sega Saturn on RasPi4 retropie:

I also looked under optional packages, but didn't them listed there.

It's not in the optional section, it's in experimental (as stated in the doc page). Even so, the core has some bugs on the Pi4 (graphical glitches) and for the moment it's not fullspeed.

@shavecat this is still an area that is work in progress. My advice is to wait until an official module (besides yabause) is released. At the moment compatibility and performance is a bit iffy.

@simpleethat I just checked my es_systems.cfg and Saturn isn't in there so that must be the reason. Thanks

Quick question, for Yabasanshiro standalone, I set my controller with the UI interface, but I don't know how to set the analog joystick properly (analog ->x,y,L,R) . It doesnt seems to work.

BTW, like PPSSPP, with Yabasanshiro standalone, if you have a touchscreen with your Pi4, the UI is touch sensitive and works well

@mitu said in Build module of lr-yabause needs some lovin':

I had a PR ready, but forgot to submit it - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/2831.

Ha! That's what I'm confused about :) I'd a look at the repo a few hours ago and thought "damn old, doesn't compile, fix needed", but now it's pull'ed and up to date. Thanks for that. But I loved waking you up :)

There are also a couple GBA titles to check out.

@Rion Seem to work now. Funny how the product page has 2 confirmation added: one for acknowledging it's a pre-order and one for I UNDERSTAND THIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE NINTENDO SWITCH (?). I wonder what troubles the CM guys went through to add those.

@John_RM_70 said in New Sega Saturn libretro core : Kronos:

The odroid xu4 has a awesome Sega Saturn emulator, at early stages, but it's looking great for a single board computer.

@barbudreadmon said in New Sega Saturn libretro core : Kronos:

I'm not sure support for boards like the odroid xu4 is likely, because i know a few people who tested standalone YabaSanshiro on this board and were disappointed, and libretro-kronos is most likely slower than YabaSanshiro on this kind of board. However i intend to buy one of those to do some tests.

Yeah, i know those videos, and i know people who tried the real thing too.

@notthesame having a saturn "2d games emulator" running on pi3 is still totally unrealistic. Usage of gles3 is actually there to help with speed so you would end up with only the sh2 improvements over the old yabause, which means an emulator running at 10 fps instead of 5 fps. Don't bother people with pointless things, thanks.

On a sidenote, kronos is now available as an alternative saturn libretro core. It still requires a somehow decent computer (i think a dual 2.8ghz cpu with a gles3/gl3.3 compatible gpu would be able to run this pretty well)

I've seen saturn emulators having slowdown on an intel core i3 @ 3.4Ghz, don't expect to run those on a raspberry pi 3, neither raspberry pi 4, neither raspberry pi 5, except perhaps if someone create a dynarec (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_recompilation if you don't know what i mean)
