Emulation - Retro Gaming In Style

Seems like they recently update the RetroArch core but I still have issues with different games such as Metal Gear Solid 2 and Ico. It's just me?

Hi,

When launching Suyu Switch emulator it complains that encryption keys are missing, but before I have a chance to add them the app closes.

This happens for me on both 0.0.2 and 0.0.3.

Does anyone know how to fix?

Thanks

A bit of a YSK for noobs (like me).

I was setting up the RG35XX-SP with Knulli last night. They have an excellent little tool in the menus for checking for any missing bios files for the emulators. A few of the files I couldn't find anywhere, but I had similar (but not exactly) named files. For example, a DS emulation bios I was missing was dsi_bios7.bin but I had biosdsi7.bin.

Amazingly, the (I guess Batocera) developers include an 'MD5' hash of the required files in the message with each file name, so I was able to confirm these are actually the same files. eg for the file dsi_bios7.bin the MD5 was given as 559dae4ea78eb9d67702c56c1d791e81.

If you're not a software developer, you might not be familiar with hashes. They are basically a big number computed from every byte in a file such that if two files have the same hash, for practical purposes, the files are exactly the same.

To find the MD5 of a file in mac or Linux you just type md5 <filename> in the terminal (ed: md5sum <filename> on Linux - thanks @[email protected] ), or for little files like these, just drop them in an online MD5 calculator.

Over two decades ago, a small company by the name of Bleem! appeared and offered a unique product in the gaming market, the ability to play PlayStation games outside of the original hardware, in what would be popularly known as "emulation" worldwide, be it in Windows PCs at the time (Windows 95...

It's finally here -- a small 4:3 handheld that packs a punch AND with a high-resolution AMOLED display. Let's discuss all the reasons why I love the Retroid Pocket Mini, some of its promising future updates, and why it may or may not be the right handheld for you.

I absolutely love MinUI on my RG35XXSP, but I hated that it turned the power LED off. Initially I tried to fiddle with just disabling the part of the MinUI boot that turned off the LED, but then I realized that putting the console to sleep and turning it back on disabled the LED anyway. That was baked into the OS, and I didn’t want to recompile the whole thing just to disable that.

Enter this tool. It contains a script that gets set to run during boot to turn on the power LED and keep it on. It can also undo all of its changes by running the tool again. Since it does modify system files, I also figured out how to recover from any potential issues. I was unable to cause any significant issues during my testing, but the recovery plan is there nonetheless. Full documentation is available on the repo.

Let there be light!

Looks like they're going after forks or projects otherwise containing Yuzu code.
