matebox Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Hello i have a problem with Retroarch chart using Dreamcast, you crash and tells me: Microsoft Visual ++ Runtime Library "Runtime Error!" (This application has requested the Runtine to terminate it in an unusual way.) I've put the BIOS in the System folder. The Dreamcast core crashes the program. "Retroarch.exe has stopped working"How can I fix?Thank you :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 This is a RetroArch issue, and it's hard to pin down. I've seen some reports of users saying that their game rips were causing it and after they changed them out it went away, I've personally avoided that by updating my version of RetroArch, some say redownloading the core, re-installing the Microsoft Visual++ Runtimes from the Microsoft site, so I guess take your pick in where you want to start.

matebox Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 Thank you, which runtime libraries are installed? I tried it with 2015 and does not work ... you can download the old core reicast?Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 So demul is generally the suggested emulator for Dreamcast, but obviously RA has it's benefits. I don't know what runtime they use, but their site should say. Otherwise, you can't really downgrade cores, nor should you ever really need to, I meant more that it could be corrupted so just try re-downloading it in the Online Updater. The same corruption can happen to RetroArch it's self, or it was accidentally compiled wrong, or had glitches during compile. Try updating to the latest RA version, or a version or two back if you are on the latest. After that, cause I do think of those as the easiest steps, the next step is to find a different rip of your game. It could simply be a bad rip.

Lordmonkus Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 I would highly recommend Demul or even NullDC over Retroarchs Dreamcast core. Maybe one day it will be good but we are far from that day yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxic Taz Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 if you still need help with this check out simply austin tutorial. [[you need to download his pack in the desc. then drag the extracted DC folder into system folder within your retroarch folder and done.]] dont know why it isnt in the download of retro when all the other systems just work. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 It's actually BIOS files that are linked, so I am partially tempted to remove the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxic Taz Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 thats what made it work without the runtime error for me. drop and drag the bios to the system folder. select the Reicast core and load game. thats what i was missing and i dont know where else to get the files.

SentaiBrad Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 From Google. Unfortunately it's a very bad idea to re-distribute roms and BIOS', so while it's certainly helpful it can be a bad idea to re-distribute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
