Add New Cores on Batocera, Nintendo DS and Saturn

MajorCabjones

I really enjoy your work and i use batocera on a Odroid Xu-4 recently i notice a very nice performance in new cores for theses systems.
DraStic for Nintendo DS
lr-beetle-saturn for Sega Saturn

You will add theses cores on Batocera?

Thanks for the attention and sorry for my bad english.

nadenislamarre

it's in my todo list.
however, among around 150 others lines.

MajorCabjones

nadenislamarre Maybe in 5.6 version of batocera we can see?

MajorCabjones saturn is a system with very bad emulation, not so sense to add like a preference, better add ps2 a system working 95% fine.

MajorCabjones

qanba lr-beetle-saturn runs 100% faster on RPI3

MajorCabjones

qanba But, if ps2 runs 95% fine on Odroid XU4, its a nice add

Redfield

MajorCabjones how did you get lr-beetle-saturn to run on rpi3?

qanba

nope, ps2 its only pc version. aniway saturn have no system working fine.

Redfield Retropie, Experimental Menu

Redfield

MajorCabjones I see, thanks for the info!

i've tested lr-beetle-saturn on x86_64, but it crashs (segfault) at boot, so, until i found why, i will not include it.
I will retry on xu4 once i'll work on it.

Redfield

@nadenislamarre Having a working Saturn emulator on XU4 would be incredibly cool 🙂
Already thanks a lot for putting so much time and effort into Batocera. If u keep up this speed it will surpass Recalbox in popularity very soon.

nadenislamarre

i've tried to compile the core saturn for xu4, but i get an error about an x86 asm instruction ;-( Not sure it's compatible with arm.

MajorCabjones

nadenislamarre A youtube vídeo trick's me, Beetle saturn is compatible on x86 and x64 only... https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/9058/lr-beetle-saturn/2

sorry for waste your time...

Any progress with Drastic?

nadenislamarre

no, i'm not working on that at all.

Redfield

? I thought it's supposed to run on RPI3 and included in RetroPie? Or was this false information?

MajorCabjones

Redfield False... sorry.

Redfield

nnnnnnnoooo..... D: so my last hope is trying to run Batocera on compute sticks for Saturn support 🙁

I noticed that in the retropie there are several reports and demonstrations of the Nintendo DS core working well, ally, very well in the game of New Super Mario Bros ....

So I also ask, if possible, to add DraStic core to the batocera, it would be very good, if it were possible!

Youtube videos show perfect working of this experimental core of the retropie in Raspberry Pi 3

i've added nitendo ds for the next release. for x86 x86_64 for the moment. i will to test on other plateforms.
I will need testers for the rpi3
