Drybonz Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Hey guys... how do you set up a core to have different video settings than your default settings? For instance, I have hard gpu sync set to "on" for my default settings... however, in Mednafen Saturn core, it's just too much and causes some lag... I want it set to "off" only when playing Mednafen Saturn. I think I used to have it set up this way, but it's been a while since I have used Retroarch and I'm getting everything set back up properly. Any tips are appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Load the core and a game, change the settings to how you want it and then save a Core Over Ride in the Quick Menu, it's at the bottom of that menu. If you are having problems with performance that you can't use Hard GPU Sync you should look into using the stand alone Mendafen, it's slightly less resource intensive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drybonz Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 Thanks for the advice. I tried doing a core override earlier but it gave me an "error saving core", so I thought that must not be it. Does the standalone Mednafen have the gpu syn option? I haven't tried it in a while. I can run it full speed in Retroarch without the gpu sync on.

Lordmonkus Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 It doesn't have Hard GPU Sync but it does have ss.midsync https://forum.fobby.net/index.php?t=msg&th=1584&start=0& You may have to turn on Load Content-Specific Core Options to enable the Core Over Rides 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drybonz Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 Ok... I just enabled "load content specific core options", but still get the error saving override. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Not sure what would cause that error, you can try asking on the RA forums or Discord. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS76 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I was having that issue the other day saving stuff so I started a new build and that fixed it. It was a version of RA I had been updating since 1.36 and not sure if maybe something in the cfg somewhere along the line had changed but starting fresh fixed the save issues.

Drybonz Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 Thanks, DOS76... I asked about it on the RA forums and they said that the error comes from not having any content (a game) loaded in the core when you try to save the override.

DOS76 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 yeah that wouldn't apply to me as I did have a game loaded and it still wouldn't save. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drybonz Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 It sounds like there are some glitches with it... like it won't override certain settings, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
