[4.1-stable] FAQ

[Fishou]

I know it has been said somewhere else, but having information about the needed romsets for pifba, fba_libretro and mame in this update would be an nice addition to this post, as I think it will change for fba_libretro.

[uzanto]

@substring It was an idea to add to the FAQ I think it's something that will be asked a lot.

[poumtaq]

And nintendo DS? Because that list is from the beta, right?

[rockaddicted]

The goal of a beta release is not to add new features, but to fix bugs.
Anyway do you know an open source emulator able to emulate NDS on rpi ?
On PC ok, and will be added later. But on rpi...

@rockaddicted

No, I know that retropie uses two cores MelonDs and Drastic that works very well in ARM processors, see Android that are similar processors, I have not tried the truth, only Drastic in android
But thanks by the info.

[rockaddicted]

MelonDS works well on arm ? you must have an i7 cpu to be able to use it with a good framerate.
About Drastic, I told you an open source emulator, and it is a closed source... So it will never be added on recalbox.
For your information all "emulators" on android market are fork/rebranding of known and legit emulators.
Medusa still in alpha dev, desmume unplayable on rpi (will be added on pc and maybe odroid) an melonds strong pc necessary.

[NeeeeB]

And that's very unfortunate for Drastic (closed source), because it runs really well on mid range android device...

@rockaddicted said in [4.1-stable] FAQ:

I understand, and said that Drastic works well in ARM, MelonDs I do not know, but I understand that they are forks, I had seen that somebody out there had implemented the drastic in an image, and I do not know why I expected you to implement it as experimental also, anyway thank you for the clarification, and forgive the inconvenience. A greeting.

Hi,

I am using a multi-boot image with recalbox and OSMC and upgraded 4.0 to 4.1 unstable back in April. What do I have to do to upgrade to 4.1? Do I have to wait for a new multiboot version with 4.1 stable? Any chance I just hit the update button and everything works fine?

[rockaddicted]

@marcdk backup your system, switch updates.type to stable in the recalbox.conf and try to update.

[MarcDK]

Ok, I try. I changed the config to "stable" but available update tells me "not connected" Does that mean, I did something wrong or is the update still not up?

[kelv]

@marcdk same here

it takes time for the DNS to update worldwide
