somakarma Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 (edited) Anyone get Star Wars : Rogue Squadron (N64) working on Retroarch? - tried with mupen and parellel, and different ROMs, no dice. Edited June 15, 2018 by somakarma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 That is a known problematic game along with Indiana Jones. I think the Parralel core with the Angrylion plugin enabled will play it and I also think that the Mupen core will as well with a certain core setting enabled but I cannot remember which setting it is if it does. The stand alone Mupen64plus https://m64p.github.io/claims to load and play it fine out of the box with no tinkering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somakarma Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 How to activate angry lion plugin without game loaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Load up a different game first, change the setting and then close it out, the setting should save. Then you can load up Star Wars and see if that worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Can probably edit the retroarch core options file in notepad++ too. See line 108 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 Uh oh - After i edited retroarch core options in notepad (and reverted back), Retroarch is no longer booting up at all with any N64 game in Launchbox, and wont boot when right clicking to load it without game. Strangely, NES and SNES games run fine and Retroarch runs when booted from its orginal folder. Any idea what i've broken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 1st I would try editing it back and see if it fixes it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 back to "auto"? tried and not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I mean if that was all you changed I don't know why it would break it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 You can reset it by opening the retroarch-core-options.cfg file in notepad and delete the block of text for parallel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 yep tried that - even tried a PC reboot, not working, then switching to Mupen64 but still not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Check in your \Retroarch\config\ParaLLEl N64 folder for a config file, delete that or move it somewhere else and see if that fixes it. Also, is not loading any N64 games at all or is it loading to a black screen ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 nothing in the \Retroarch\config\ParaLLEl N64 folder N64 games (and retroarch loaded in LB) doesnt run at all. I see that SNES and NES run because they have their own config set up in 'Extra Command-Line Parameters' -- N64 does not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Can you show a screenshot of your Associated Platforms window for Retroarch and your Nintendo 64 platform ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 Just added a -c config\parallel... and it now works in N64 -- but retroarch still wont load via right click game -> retroarch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 so how to get retroarch running in launchbox without it referring to a config line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Same as any other emulator. At this point I have no idea what you have changed and done so I don't know what to tell you other than recheck everything and take a look at the tutorials.

somakarma Posted June 16, 2018 Author Share Posted June 16, 2018 cool, thanks, i'll check out the vid after a bit more sleep... no idea what i changed either but i'll put it down to messing around with this kind of stuff at 2am! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoozwah Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 If you want to play the game and don't care about emulating it I think it's on gog. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
