If you use RetroPie >= 2.5.0 you can use hardware upscaling. Open /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg and set:
video_fullscreen_x = 800
video_fullscreen_y = 450Now you can enable 1920×1080@60hz and your Pi upscales 800×450 to 1920×1080 for free.
There is also a nice side-effect. You can use shaders with 1920×1080@60hz.
gizmo98ParticipantZelda is working with rice plugin if ScreenUpdateSetting=5 (/opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfg). But it is slow.
02/17/2015 at 19:46 in reply to: What Retropie-image is recommended to use with RPi2 at the moment? #87850gizmo98Participant2.5.0 beta ;-)
gizmo98ParticipantIf you recompile both emulators you can test if neon optimizations speed up anything. Update RetroPie-Setup and open it with “sudo __platform=rpi2 ./retropie_setup.sh”. Select mupen64plus and mupen64plus-libretro under source based installation.
gizmo98ParticipantYes. Zelda is not running at the moment. You can search google to find the right settings. Plugin is gles2n64.
If you find a solution please post it.
The mupen64plus-libretrocore should run zelda. Romdir is /retropie/roms/n64.
gizmo98ParticipantDownload SD card image 2.5 beta. All older SD card images have no RPI2 kernel.
gizmo98ParticipantAn overclocked PI2 should run really fine. Do you really have a PI2?
gizmo98ParticipantHere is a list of all supported controllers:
https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-input-sdl/blob/master/data/InputAutoCfg.iniYou can find and modify this config file under /opt/retropie/configs/n64.
gizmo98ParticipantPlease use /retropie/roms/n64-mupen64plus
gizmo98ParticipantYou can edit key mappings in /opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfg and /opt/retropie/configs/n64/InputAutoCfg.ini.
gizmo98ParticipantNice :-) This reminds me that my PI 2 is still not here :-(
gizmo98Participantgizmo98ParticipantThere are two n64 emulators. Each has an own rom dir (n64 and n64-mupen64plus). Both have the video plugins video-n64 and video-rice. Some games run better with the rice plugin, some run better with the n64 plugin. If you use mupen64plus-libretro press F1 and go to core settings. There you can change the default video plugin (needs restart). The default video plugin of mupen64plus can be changed under /opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfg.
gizmo98ParticipantSounds like you are using RetroPie 2.3 or a early 2.4.x release. Please try this:
gizmo98ParticipantCortex-A7 is a 32bit core. Libretrocores can almost profit from more cores because audio and video run in own threads. There could be a slight performance boost if everything is compiled with -fpu=neon and -mcpu=cortex-a7.
gizmo98ParticipantThere is only one raspbian image for rpi and rpi2:
http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/release_notes.txt
If videocore libs are equal retropie should work out of the box.Debian wheezy could be better, because it is a armv7 optimized distribution.
gizmo98ParticipantThe bios needs to be in the same path as gpsp. So but it in /opt/retropie/emulators/gpsp.
gizmo98ParticipantYou could remove the ARCH SDL2 package and build your own SDL2 package. If cubox supports GLES, configure SDL with GLES support (./configure –disable-video-opengl –enable-video-gles).
If you have no pi or mali gpu emulationstation must be tweaked to use GLES.
https://github.com/Aloshi/EmulationStation/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L14
Line 14 must be changed to:
set(GLSystem “OpenGL ES” CACHE STRING “The OpenGL system to be used”)gizmo98ParticipantStep 1: Download Retropie 2.4.2 SD card image:
https://www.petrockblock.com/retropie/retropie-downloads/download-info/retropie-sd-card-image-v2-4-2-beta/Step 2: After the first start close Emulationstation with “F4” and type:
cd RetroPie-Setup
sudo git pull
sudo ./retropie_setup.shSelect source based installation and choose mupen64plus.
It could be possible to run step 2
with SD card image 2.3. But it is not tested or recommended.gizmo98ParticipantDo you use retropie 2.3? N64 emulation is broken in retropie 2.3. Retropie 2.4.2 has a working slow n64 libretrocore. If you use 2.4.2 you can try a source base installation of mupen64plus. This emulator is working again and should be much faster than the libretrocore.
gizmo98ParticipantSource based.
gizmo98ParticipantOk. Both games are running fine with the latest version.
gizmo98Participant@sanpollo
Your config is merged now:
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/supplementary/RetroArchConfigs/USB_Gamepad.cfg
@herbfargus
Please use controller registration (retropie-setup.sh) or basic controller configuration (emulationstation) to create a autoconfig file under /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs. The config file must contain the controller name.gizmo98ParticipantMetal Gear Solid worked with 2.3 and crashes at startup with 2.4.1.
Gran Turismo worked with 2.3 and crashes if you select and start a course with 2.4.1.I have not build release21. Retropie 2.4.2 should contain release20, because release21 was merged on Sunday.
https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/commits/mastergizmo98ParticipantJust added a potential fix:
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/commit/8f3ffbc4e46d19a9768aa1391fb2dfae81496d3egizmo98ParticipantCould be. I had the same problem with 2.4.1 and replaced sixad driver with a current bluetooth daemon with sixaxis support.
https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup/blob/bluez/scriptmodules/supplementary/bluez.shI will take a look if sixad runs again with the right path.
gizmo98ParticipantHi 7lucky7,
Please update your retropie setup script and install the experimental mupen64plus module. Mupen64plus standalone should work now.
gizmo98ParticipantJust use SD Card image 2.4.2.
gizmo98ParticipantI played around with wolf4sdl before. I couldn’t test it because i had no good game files.
https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup/blob/testing/scriptmodules/emulators/wolfenstein.sh
Do you have any shareware sources?
gizmo98ParticipantRetroPie 2.4.2 has a gamegear retroarch core. Please use this one instead of osmose.
gizmo98ParticipantPlease use 2.4.1 Beta and copy the gab bios to /opt/retropie/emulators/gpsp.
gizmo98Participantvideo_smooth = shader filter linear!
gizmo98ParticipantIf you use themes and if you have scraped many games, emulationstation flickers and is not usable with 128MB.
gizmo98ParticipantYou can try to compile 4do-libretro:
https://github.com/libretro/4do-libretrogizmo98ParticipantTry sdl2 instead.
