Thankfully, thanks to Retroarch’s new desktop frontend, you can create and populate playlists manually in seconds. After what could be hours of waiting, you will still have an empty list in front of you. For example, good luck trying to automatically scan a folder filled with games for Sony’s first PlayStation in compressed PBP format.

Does your collection span multiple systems with large ROMs (like the Playstation, Gamecube, or anything newer)? In such scenarios, this “scanning” can eat up your whole evening.Īn additional problem is that Retroarch can’t recognize many popular formats, even if its own cores support them. Unfortunately, when dealing with extensive ROM collections, scanning a directory filled with ROMs to detect the games automatically can take a lot of time. That, though, defeats its very purpose, to be a frontend for hundreds of games on different systems. Retroarch’s game detection and playlist update features are great if you are using it to play around a dozen ROMs. With High performance selected, your CPU will stop unnecessarily throttling your games. Go to “Windows Control Panel -> Power Options,” then change the “Preferred plan” to “High performance.” This option may be hiding under “Show additional plans,” which you may have to click to see it. No matter which graphical settings you change, the game suffers a “dragging” effect on both video and sound that makes it extremely unpleasant to play.Īfter much poking around and futile settings tweaks, we found the solution in the simplest of places – Windows Power Options. These two issues often go hand in hand, and you may have experienced them in particular on some of the more demanding cores like the Vulkan-based PS1 core Beetle PSX HW.

It will work with the Vulkan driver (using very accurate if low-resolution N64 graphics).

Try without any cheats and without loading any save states.Next, quit Retroarch and reopen it, go to “Settings -> Drivers -> Video” and change the driver to “vulkan.” Now, open a ROM using the ParaLLel 64 core.

Try resetting settings or older versions and include if the issue is related.

Test in the latest git build in case it's already fixed.

i dont know which version it was Graphics backend (3D API) The newest retroarch build with up to date core Last working versionįew months ago.
