Hi @substring and others.
The master branch of my reicast fork should work fine on a Pi. I tested it and made sure to keep performance to an acceptable level. It adds a number of features compared to upstream reicast: shadow volumes, clipping, render to texture, multipass rendering support and a number of bug fixes.
The OIT branch (fh/deferred-shading) on the other hand is very experimental and require desktop-level cpu and gpu (and OpenGL 4.3). It also only works with NVIDIA gpu at the moment and has a couple of bugs, but I intend to improve this in the coming weeks.

@harrym said in MAJ reicast/libretro:

des jeux nds sur rpi3 cool! sinon il existe un moyen pas trop difficile de mettre a jour soi-même le core reicast sur le rpi3?
je n'ai pas trouvé d'autres topics sur ce sujet...

Tu peux essayer mon fork: https://github.com/reicast/reicast-emulator/tree/fh/mymaster
C'est une version standalone qui tourne sur Pi avec tous les bug fixes et features possibles pour cette plateforme.
Malheureusement NAOMI crash au boot.

@flyinghead Hey ! Welcome on board, glad to see you here

Thank you!

how does your reicast fork work compared to skmp's in terms of performance ? like ... does the date finally get saved ? We've also spotted a bug of improper exit of reicast with some dirty die here and there, not cleanly deinit-ing SDL2 which can cause some problems on some boards using GBM rather than FBDEV.

Performance should be similar to skmp reicast although most features I added do have a slight performance hit.
I also integrated fixes for clean exit, so that the date and VMU are properly saved on exit.
