RetroArch CE (Unofficial - Community Edition)

PS3 RetroArch CE (Unofficial - Community Edition) Beta 4

I noticed an issue while we were testing original CE releases but forgot to report it at the time.

I had the previous official RA installed/setup and was comparing the two releases, checking confirmed working features were also working in the CE edition.

Setup (folder names etc) exactly the same but I could not get cover artwork to work in Retroarch CE (Ozone) GUI.

If anyone else can confirm this issue we (@STLcardsWS) can add it to the list.

Re: crashes and instability, latest official releases have changes to the way RA loads cores and roms which are supposed to improve memory management and particularly performance on console(s) which suffer most (less memory) https://www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-9-4-released/

Retroarch team says that PSL1GHT controls are working again.

I hope sometime in the near future we will see the return of the XMB theme for RA on PS3.
I honestly don't like the current theme. Maybe it's just me and/or my HDTV, but the smaller font bothers my eyes.

I tried 1.8.4 to see how the XMB theme looks, and its really nice. Unfortunately though remapping
controls seems to mess up its menu. For now I will stick with 1.9.0. CE because usability is more
important than looks.
 
Any way to return directly to the playlist when you exit a game? Every time I exit a game (close content) I'm returned to the main menu instead of the playlist I launched the game from.
 
Hi,

Is there any way to bring up the on-screen keyboard in game? Just like the RA menu one when we press ∆. There are some games that needs keyboard inputs in game.

In the hotkeys menu there is an option "on-screen keyboard", but It seems that binding hotkeys to gamepad buttons doesn't work (It maps the gamepad button, but It says N/A next to button name). And I'm not sure if that "on-screen keyboard" is an in game keyboard or simply the RA menu keyboard.

Thanks in advance.

Keyboard in game menu is core dependent, some cores have it, other not.

Ok thanks. I would like to use it with DosBox-svn core. Do you know if DosBox core have keyboard support?

And... there is any chance we can get DosBox Pure core? As far as I know, that core has save states support (and It that case I wouldn't need keyboard input).

The last cuestion: I'm trying to play World Rally Championship arcade rom. I read in a forum that It runs ok with FB Alpha, but It freezes PS3 with the current FB Alpha core que have here. Any walkaround?

EDIT: I see here that DosBox-pure have both save states and on-screen keyboard support, so It would be nice to have this core:

EDIT2: Actually, after updating cores, World Rally Championship works with Final Burn Neo core. Great.

Only DosBox-svn works.
 
Hi again,

Is there any way to turn on turbo button 'per game'? To enable turbo button I have to enable It in the main settings menu, under Input section. But It aplies to all games/cores. Inside game's controller options when a game is running, I don't see any way or option to turn on/off turbo button.
 
Thanks for this nice starting picture btw.

snes8x2010 worked fine with Super Mario Allstar and Top Gear.
Nostalgia woow o0 I remember I needed an ntsc to pal Converter cause my snes was European but the game (Top Gear) I owned was US/Ntsc Version
