Unsolved Virtual Jaguar - Atari Jaguar & CD emulator; Now new standalone app for Windows, Linux and MacOS.

I’ve been working on the Virtual Jaguar libretro core for a while, and it now has its own desktop front end. It runs the same core RetroArch uses, so options and save states work the same in both. The RetroArch core isn’t going anywhere.

What it does:

  • macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel), Windows (x64 + ARM64), Linux (AppImage, .deb, Flatpak)
  • No BIOS files needed. The boot ROM and CD BIOS are built in.
  • Jaguar CD support from .cue/.chd/.cdi
  • Library with box art, search, favorites, recently played, and a save states tab
  • Save states with thumbnails, plus “resume where I left off”
  • Per-game controller remapping, all 12 keypad buttons on a gamepad, Tempest rotary, mouse, light gun, Team Tap
  • RetroArch .slangp shaders (CRT presets bundled), integer scaling, aspect options
  • RetroAchievements (softcore/hardcore) and optional Discord Rich Presence
  • Cheats from the libretro database, plus manual codes
  • LAN link-cable play for Doom, BattleSphere, AirCars and Ultra Vortek (Voice Modem). It’s LAN only, not internet netplay (coming soon though).
  • Themes and a theme editor, any installed font
  • Dev tools for homebrew people: 68K/GPU/DSP debugger, memory editor, Object Processor list, blitter log, and a gdb stub

Unsolved mGBA problems - I could use some help

1 Upvotes

I just tried mGBA out for the first time on my little office style PC. I have had problems with an audio popping sound. I thought these emulators could run find on most anything in recent years.

PC specs

Windows 10 64 bit

i7-4770S CPU @ 3.10GHz

16 GB ram

Intel HD Graphics 4600

C: Samsung 850 EVO SSD 250 GB

D: Samsung PM851 mSATA SSD 128 GB (roms are stored here)

mGBA settings

Audio buffer - was on 1024 and I get frequent audio popping. I increased it to 2048 and get a

maybe 50% less popping. Resolution was set to 1920 x 1080 at first. I reduced it to 1440 x 960 at the same time but I don't know if that made any difference or the audio buffer made the difference.

I was wondering, is there an ideal resolution for a PC user to run this at (besides) the

resolution of the original GBA? Should I try to be happy with 720 x 480? I hate to see all that
extra space on my screen and a tiny game in the middle.

Unsolved How do I fix/hide screen tearing using RTSS?

1 Upvotes

I’m playing through the jak games again on OpenGoal and I turned off vsync (I know this setting fixes it and I know it must be off to use it with rtss) because I can bump the resolution way up without losing a bunch of fps.

I’m using a weaker laptop admittedly but it’s good enough to run at least ps2 games at an 2x resolution through emulation and jak 1-3 at 1080 using OpenGoal.

How do I hide the screen tearing because no matter where I look or test, the tearing never changes locations.

Am I missing something? Am I stupid?

Unsolved Help with getting games and classic Mac emulators running on windows 10

1 Upvotes

I have been desperately trying to get multiple classic Macintosh emulators working on my Windows 10 Home Edition PC, but to no avail. I have tried the V-Mac Core on RetroArch, but I can't seem to load the disc images to run the game Might and Magic on the emulator.
I have tried the VMac emulator itself and while I had some luck activating the emulator and attempting to install the game, it seems to get stuck in an endless loop of asking for the hard drive disk image and the data disk one image for Might and Magic.
I have also tried the Basilisk 2 emulator which always ends in failure because no matter what ROM file I use or configuration I use it always ends up with a not responding error and I have to close the emulator.
I have downloaded all of the BIOS and ROM files from Macintosh Gardens and other websites like that, but no configuration seems to be able to work with this game.
I have even tried infinitemac.org but when installing the game it says that the data disk 1 image is too full and can't create the desktop file necessary for installation as far as I can tell.
Any ideas on this? Has anyone been able to get these Macintosh emulators working and running games?
Thanks very much for your time.
