Atomiswave using Flycast core in Retroarch


Johnny T

Recommended Posts

** EDIT ** I've moved on to DeMul now... going to try and set that up instead. I've found a guide on that one so hoping it will work better. Thanks

 

Has anyone managed to get Metal Slug 6 working using the Flycast core in Retroarch?

When I load it up the audio is really choppy and so is the movement.

I'm having problems with other games too.

I have the following files in /retroarch/system/dc/

awbios.zip

naomi.zip

naomi2.zip

naomigd.zip

When I start the game I get a message saying "Please upgrade to MAME romsets or expect issues"

Can anyone shed any light on this? 

Many thanks ?

Just tried now, mine runs with great sound and movement isn't choppy, although I have glitches, the sprites become black boxes from time to time. 

This is with Flycast in RA. 

I use Flycast in RA exclusively for Atomiswave and no black boxes for me. Options make a pretty big difference with this core, what settings are you using Johnny T and what are your specs?

I have had the same problems with the Flycast core. See if disabling "threaded rendering" in the Flycast options makes any difference.

Make sure you are using the latest MAME romset for the games, rather than the old bin/lst games.

All works fine using Flycast with default settings, though tweaking to your liking will obviously help further.

** EDIT ** for anyone else who finds this. DOS76 is a saviour who created these bat files to extract the correct MAME roms from your collection: 

Thanks Derek! 

** EDIT No.2 ** In the _Naomi.bat file from the above link there's a few tweaks due to MAME changing the names of some of the roms since the file was created....

Just point it to your MAME roms folder, no need to move the roms.
