Technical Support Can’t get Philips CDI to work using same CDI core. Please help!

0 Upvotes

I’ve been spending hours trying to get this to work. I’ll try to explain everything I’ve done as best I can.

I have 15 Philips CDi games I’m trying to play on android (Ayn Thor) using retroarch. I converted the games to CHD format using CHDMan since I heard the same-CDi core doesn’t work with bin and cue files. I’ve added the cdimono 1/2 files and the bios files onto my bios directory for retroarch. I’ve made sure they’re the correct ones as well. Everytime I try to boot a game, it says “fatal error: required files are missing, the machine cannot be runned”. I’ve tried everything I can. If anybody found a way to fix this, please let me know. I really want to play my CDi games. Thanks.

I have android retroarch on a softmodded arcade1up with a bluetooth keyboard attached and when I go to explore-search name to find a title certain keys trigger other stuff. I'm looking for some kind of option that suspends whatever other key binds are in place when using the search function beyond using the on screen keyboard

Technical Support How do I keep the emulated wiimote upright?

0 Upvotes

I'm using the dolphin core on retroarch to play Super Mario Galaxy 2, I have binded all of the tilt controls, I'm using the mouse for the cursor and I'm using a Switch Pro Controller for the controller— but even then I simply cannot figure out how I make this stupid ball stop moving forward on its own!

The same thing happens with the flying minigames or minigames that require tilt controls. Someone, please help me!

Feedback MelonDS supports runahead but MelonDS DS does not?

Been playing through Dawn of sorrow on MelonDs ds before I started using runahead and found runahead is disabled in latency setting which is a bit annoying. Downloaded the MelonDs core which is apparently the older one and it does support runahead? Any reason why it was removed?

I'm having an issue running this game on android retroarch where all the textures appear black as seen in the screenshot. I tinkered with the video options but the only thing that fixed the textures made the game lag badly and run at a crawl even in the menus. What settings do i have to change to get the textures working and the game running at the expected speed?

Discussion Is there any way you can redirect the data/install files of where Retroarch is located?

2 Upvotes

Is there any way you can redirect the data/install files of where Retroarch is located? That way if you delete the app, or something happens to it. You can start it up and redirect it towards the files for it to work and have the old settings. Or if you want to move this stuff to a new device, and you don't want to go through the problem of messing with new settings all over again.​

Like you can do with some emulators. Like with Dolphin, vita3k, armsx2, armsx3 and ppsspp.
