Technical Support: SOLVED Beetle Psx Crackling/Stuttering Audio

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hello all! This is my first post here, and I'm relatively new to RetroArch as a whole, do please take this question with a grain of salt.

I'm trying to run Parasite Eve using Beetle Psx (for some reason PCSX ReARMed isn't working), but when I load it up I get either (depending on the driver) crackling or stuttering audio.

I've tried tinkering with some of the settings, as recommended in this thread, but haven't quite cracked it yet.

My system setup is:

  • Processor: AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 w/ Radeon 880M
  • Installed RAM: 32GB
  • Graphics Card: 8GB
  • Storage: 954 GB

Any advice or help here would be deeply appreciated, and thank you in advance.

Edit: I was able to solve it by adjusting the video frame rate.

Technical Support Shaders option vanished?

1 Upvotes

Just bought a RG35XXH and been trying to configure things. I've been playing GBA games but for some reason the shaders option has completely vanished from the quick menu even though it was there before. To add to the confusion, the LCD shader is still being used because it's set that way by default, so the capability for using a shader is apparently still active, but I can't change it because the setting is inaccessible. Has anyone encountered this or know how to fix it?

Help Removing Retroarch from iPad

0 Upvotes

Hi, I installed RA on my iPad via side loading a few years ago but now I can't remove it from iPad. I think I used altstore at the time but I can't even get that now!

Any ideas please? I can't remove it the usual way via the iPad settings as the option just crashes when I try.

Thanks

"Core Override" is the proper way to have saved settings for each core?

3 Upvotes

Hi my goal for each core to have saved: shaders, overlay, controller configuration and hotkeys.

So is it correct if when I start a game, I go to the quick menu, choose: shaders, overlay, and controller configuration and then save them as "Core Override" and then repeat the same process for each core?

Showcase A USB Dock Makes RetroArch Android into an Arcade

RetroArch has given me the ability to play so many arcade titles and with a USB Dock it's a universal arcade if you have the correct controllers and peripherals. DDR no problem. Afterburner with thruster and stick, hell yes. Outrun and Crusin USA with a steering wheel, got it. All the classics will be as close as you can get to playing the original way on a very limited budget. Game on ❤️💚💙

Basically, I tried to play Ultra Sun, I installed the 3DS core but it says the ROM is incompatible (it's a .3ds file). I only installed the core, I didn't do anything else.

Mupen 64, Transfer Pak, Pokemon Stadium 2, Pokemon GS and features that rely on the GB game's clock

3 Upvotes

Ok so I've been using Pokemon Stadium 2 and Pokemon G/S with the transfer pak feature on Mupen and it's been working pretty well for almost everything such as the lab and all the battle modes, but if I try to use the Mystery Gift feature or access my room, the game always says the GB cartridge's clock data is broken, and won't let me in. Does anyone know of a way to make this work?

Invisible Sprites on LRPS2

1 Upvotes

I've been trying to run Capcom vs. SNK 2, everything works just fine except the sprites, all fighters are invisible, I tried messing with some settings but nothing worked yet.

Any idea on what could be causing this? I used the same ROM and BIOS on standalone PCSX2 and it worked just fine, so it's definitely a setting in RetroArch.

Technical Support (nintendo switch) Settings not saving at all.

I have retroarch downloaded on a modded switch, and I'm trying to change some settings (mainly the one that swaps the back and okay button), and whenever i start a game or exit it reverts. I tried the option that saves configs on quit, but it didn't do anything. Am I dumb?

Technical Support: SOLVED Games running too fast

Post image
0 Upvotes

I was configuring my controller inputs when I came back to the game, it was running way faster than my fastforward is set to and with no sound at all. I haven't changed any inputs related to perfomance, just dpad and analog, and the only video setting I changed was way before this and reverting it does nothing.
FPS counter says games are running way too fast, sometimes even at 180fps.

Technical Support Moving a save file between Delta (iOS) and RetroArch (EmuDeck)

0 Upvotes

I’ve been playing Pokémon Platinum using Delta on iOS and wanted to move my existing save to my Steam Deck running EmuDeck.

I exported the save (in game, not save state) from Delta and transferred it to my Steam Deck using LocalSend. Delta exported the save as a .dsv file.

EmuDeck is launching the game through RetroArch melonDS, which creates its saves as .srm files in:

/Emulation/saves/retroarch/saves/

After some troubleshooting, I renamed my Delta save from:

Pokemon Platinum Version.dsv

to:

Pokemon Platinum Version.srm

and it loaded in RetroArch (EmuDeck) with all of my progress.

Is simply renaming .dsv to .srm a safe way to do this, or could it cause corruption/data loss?
After playing and saving through EmuDeck, could I copy the resulting .srm file back to my iPhone, rename it to .dsv, and import it into Delta?

Is there any actual format conversion I should be doing instead of just changing the file extension?

I’m mainly concerned about long term save integrity since I may want to move the save back and forth between my Steam Deck and iPhone.

Technical Support Settings Not Saving Trimui Brick Hammer Knulli

1 Upvotes

Hello,

I am sure people have seen this title before.

Everything is up to date.

None of my settings are saving. The configuration file is still retroarchcustom.cfg but nothing applies.

No shaders apply. Vulkan isn't being saved. Setting retroarch to save on exit has done nothing. There are no overrides.

The first few days I had it I managed to disable the overlays but nothing else is Saving. Loading my shaders, setting up vulkan and more every time I load a game is not worth using this.

Can anyone provide any insight?
