  1. Does Super Famicom need bios? I'm having problems getting the roms to work. When I use bsnes_balanced I just get a black screen and can only get out of Retroarch by ctrl, alt, del to kill the process. I tired another core and that one would just give me an error that it fails to load.

  2. I suggest using the stand alone version over the Retroarch core.


    Yeah I think that's what I'm going to do. Still need to work on button mapping with Xarcade sticks. But I tested the stand alone in my cab and worked perfectly and looks nice. So yeah think I won't put more time into the Retroarch core.

  3. I have been trying to get this to work but cant get past this error "Failed to load ppge_atlas.zim"

    The PPSSPP folder location is RetroArch/system/PPSSPP

    In that folder I have the assets and memstick folders. And the zim file is in the assets folder. I'm stuck at the moment.

  4. Yea, I don't want to talk down a present from your wife, I feel bad for doing that, but I'd rather be honest. [emoji23] There are some people here who've had good experiences with Seagate, but every Seagate drive I've ever had failed quickly. I have a 500GB Western Digital drive from 2008 still going strong. You can tell if it's USB2 or 3 by the USB A port (the side you stick in to the PC). If it's Blue, it's USB3. If it's any other color (usually White), it's USB2.


    Haha right I'm the same when she gave it to me I was like oh... the drive I'm setting up is a 1TB and it's filling up fast. Ha who know have Mame CHDs would take up so much. But she said return it and get the right one. I guess she picked right drive but than 2nd guessed and did the external.

  5. I couldn't find much for USB so I'm guessing USB2 also. Thanks didn't know that about Seagate. Might return it and get a different one.

  6. Not necessarily, it depends. If you have a USB2 drive (or, oh god, a USB1 drive) then yea. Even if LaunchBox doesn't see too much of a difference, the seek times alone would be much better. I have even an internal 5400RPM SATA3 drive and it blows USB1 and 2 out of the water (USB 1 is pretty much non-existent now). If you have a USB3 or even an mSATA drive then it wont be so bad, as long as the drive and cable specs actually meet up to the proper standard. Some "budget" stuff might not come close to the proper speeds. If you are talking about a SATA3 SSD or even an M.2 SSD, then LaunchBox wont really even use the faster speeds. The average seek time will still be much higher, general performance could still increase, but LaunchBox doesn't actively take advantage of the speeds. My 5400RPM 8TB SATA3 drive runs LaunchBox and all my games just fine, with some room to spare. My OS though is on an SSD which helps, which helps the most. I also want an SSD for certain games, like Fallout 4, Skyrim, etc, but those are extreme cases.


    This is what my wife got me for my birthday I never did tell her what type just 2TB. 9ee46329db680245e6705cf69c3e3e8e.jpg

  7. All that option will do is replace box art with clear logo's. You need to go in to the Keyboard Mappings or Controller Buttons menu, check the Switch View option, go to your list of games and press that button until you find a view, that uses clear logo's, that you like.


    Thanks mapped the keyboard and now have the perfect view for me thanks@SentaiBrad

  8. I have a few clear logos for the games. And I can't get them to show up instead it's the text of the name not the png.

     

    Is there a setting to turn those off that I might of missed.

  9. I have been fallowing the videos to get this going. Ha hoped to be faster next to hyperspin and less of a pain.

     

    But I can't get Retroarch to work in launchbox. When I to play a game it's like it try's to work but nothing. And I noticed the play count change each time I try to play.

     

    The roms work if I right click and start Retroarch and load the core.

     

    Should have it all setup per the video.
