3 DS Roms doesn't work ??

Barida

I know many have the problem and I have also searched a lot for solutions, I just can’t get any further. My 3DS Roms are decrypted and run great on my Win PC with the emulator Citra.

But in Batocera they just don’t start whichever emulator I use.

A question I need to copy files to the Bios folder to start them, if so which ones?
Have also read that some of the Roms in ZIP packs to start them, unfortunately, that doesn’t work for me either?
Can someone give me a tip why it doesn’t work, maybe I have to decrypt it differently?

Thanks for the nice help

You mean Libretro Citra? (You can choose betwenn Standalone Citra and Libretro Citra under Game Settings, Per System Advanced Settings, 3DS, Emulator/Core)
For Libretro Citra there is an easy fix, see here:

Den Emulator den ich unter Win verwände ist https://citra-emu.org
In Batocera habe ich beide hinterlegte Emulatoren versucht kein Erfolg
Jetzt habe ich wie unter dem Link beschrieben die 3ds.cfg erstellt kein Erfolg muss ich die Datei noch Aktivieren oder irgendwo eintragen das sie verwendet wird ?

Dann weiß ich ehrlich gesagt auch nicht, warum das bei dir nicht läuft.
Bei mir funktioniert 3DS einwandfrei (sowohl mit standalone Citra, als auch mit dem Libretro Core).

Welche Version von Batocera verwendest du denn? Und wie lauten die technischen Daten deines PCs? (CPU/Grafikkarte)

So I have the latest Batocera version 5.26 my PC has CPU Intel i3 6100 RAM 8 GB GPU GeForce GT 1030.

Do I have to create the 3ds.cfg file via Putty? Have I simply connected via FileZilla and just right-click and create new files and entered the line?

I got the YouTube video under your post https://forum.batocera.org/d/2405-3ds-not-working https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-how-to-use-3ds-citra- emulator-decrypt-3ds-games.391316 / and I noticed that when I just see my Rome as in the video simply see citra.exe Start the game does NOT have to start the citra-pt.exe and the Rom can load it with it stay in contact ?

Thank you for your help

I also tried it out of curiosity with the cell phone app Citra whether it is not because of my ROMS unfortunately they run there perfectly because my cell phone is too weak 😊

you can try older versions of batocera:
https://updates.batocera.org/x86_64/stable/last/archives/

and/or the current beta of 5.27
https://updates.batocera.org/x86_64/beta/last/

by the way… did you enable nvidia drivers?

Barida I had the same issue with 5.26 and Citra. Going back to 5.25 fixed it. I also use a GT1030 fwiw.

Barida

Thanks for the answers

Then I’ll try an old version, I just have to think about how I can do that so that I don’t have to copy my 1000 games again. Can you reset the version without copying all the data again?

Joinski your links are not working or working at the moment
I’ll report when I’ve got it right

But thank you very much for the help great community

you can always down- or upgrade batocera without losing your games.
just follow the wiki

Well I tried it now with version 5.27 and 5.25, unfortunately without success it would have been too easy
Yes the Nvidia driver is active

I just hope for version 5.28 and will keep trying, but thanks for the nice help.

don’t know what the issue is on your side.
for me 3ds (with either citra standalone or libretro citra) works on the current beta of 5.27 (my test-system: i3-9100 + nvidia GTX 1050 Ti).

what is written in the logs?

I don’t understand anything ??
