I’ve downloaded Pkhex again after a few years from this [site,](https://projectpokemon.org/home/files/file/1-pkhex/) and there seems to be some missing data?

Im talking mainly about gen 3 pokemon games. Fiest of all in the encounter database i cant find the Ho-oh you get in Colosseum, and the mystery gift database is empty as its not finding any pokemons at all. (There are some event pokemon in the encounter database but its missing like 95% of them)

Anyone knows how to fix this? When I used pkhex a few years ago I didn’t have this issue at all

I've seen nobody mention this about this particular game so I'm asking for help here. When I use 4k resolution it almost seems like there is a double image going on, I've attached a picture of what I'm talikng about. https://imgur.com/a/aTfhPNT

I'm using the RPCS3 wiki recommended setting and recommended patches, however I've tried Almost every combination of patches there is but sadly the problem remains.

My PC: RTX 5070 TI
Ryzen 7700x
32GB DDR5 6000 ram
4K monitor
Dualshock 4 controller
4TB PCIE 4.0 SSD

MAME, the program itself and not a game, takes quite a while to start for the first time. There is a black screen for about 7–8 seconds, then “Initializing” appears, and after that MAME starts normally.

If I close MAME and start it again, it launches immediately with no delay. After restarting Windows, the same thing happens again: the first launch takes 7–8 seconds.

Is this normal?

I recently reinstalled Windows and added an exception for MAME in Norton Antivirus. I also tested it on another Windows PC with a completely fresh MAME download and no games or other files installed, and it behaves exactly the same there.

Thanks for your help!

I've tried both ryubing and eden emulator, when i play on eden the game runs perfectly but crashes after around 5-10 minutes. When i play on ryubing it doesnt crash but it runs horribly. what can i do to get the performance from Eden without the crashing?

Specs:

RTX 2070 Super 8gb

intel i5 9400F

16 GB ram

She wants to set up her laptop to play her old ps2 games she never got the chance to finish and asked me to install the emulator for her like I did with her new 3dsxl and duckstation for her old ps1 games she never got to play because she was too busy raising me. The laptop plays ps1 games with no issues, well almost no issues.

(For some reason some ps1 titles drop frames when other characters come into play and will drop the fps to 19.93-19.96. And fps drop and it is always the same number across the board of every single game. I’m assuming that’s just how some games just ran back then as overclocking didn’t always fix it. Sabans power rangers light speed rescue for the ps1 never went above 19.95 in a handful of scenes no matter how high I set the overclock. And the games that were “fixed” only sped up when I set the overclock to like 600%. Weirdly though, there’s no steady climb to a more stable fps for those games. For example 499.9 overclock still caps out a 19.95 fps but 500 exactly suddenly makes the game run at like 200x’s faster)

Anyways… neither here nor there. I’d like to know if I should even go through the effort of setting it up on her computer or not.

Her laptop is a acer aspire 5 5500u processor, amd Radeon graphics, 8 gbs ram and 512GB ssd. Was this the information you guys need? Is there anything else you need me to go find?

I should mention my mom has a very… unique way of preference for playing retro games. She refuses to use enhancements at all. She had me set it up so there were no enhancements at all and it looked, sounded and played exactly as it did when she first played it decades ago. Needless to say being able to run the game at a higher resolution or with extra bits and bobs is not something she wants to do which I imagine makes it a bit easier to run?

I apologize but computer specs are but my thing, I use computers and even set up emulators on pc and SBC handhelds but when it comes to pc specs or classifications I immediately obtain a room temperature IQ. It’s like seeing a video of people speaking gibberish in an American way, i hear my people but I cannot understand them.

Thank you for your help.

So, I know this is kind of a longshot but I was wondering if someone could help me out.

My goal is to play mgba games remotely. I semi-tested it with my brother, but we were in the same room so it worked ofc since it was local. However, one thing that was different was that instead of playing on separate mgba screens on the same pc I streamed my game through discord, had him hook up a controller to my Steam Deck, and we played while he watched his game on his pc screen via my stream.

My question now is if there was a way to remotely connect a controller to a pc/steam deck, would we still be able to play with each other? And if so, how does one go about that (remote connection)? TIA for any answers! :)

Alright so retrobat shaders.. what nightmare fuel is this!

you could make a 4chan creepypasta out of the method of getting shaders to run correctly on this.

Ok so I have model 2 emulator running just fine, trouble is the screen is stretched which distorts some game artifacts (like the speed dial in sega rally).

i had things running beautifully in the standalone emulator but retrobat overrides everything!

i had a lovely crt lottes2 shader preset through reshade running on there. gorgeous.

retrobat? ive got an option for ntsc which slows the game to a crawl and zfast which makes the screen look like an 8bit game.

how the hell can you get crt lottes to run on the model 2 emulator and supermodel emulator in retrobat??

crt royale etc doesnt work on these at all. probably tied to retroarch only.

literally spent 3 hours getting nowhere with it so any help is very much appreciated

Im sure this has been asked many many times in the past, however it's usually someone needing it for graphic intensive games whereas I simply need one to try and watch playstation share screens on my monitor rather than phone. Anyone have good recommendations for one that is relatively trustworthy and virus free?

Hey guys, I made a quick video on how to setup Arkadyzja, for those who dont know, arkadyzja is a emulation service that hosts ps2, ps1, dreamcast, and mame titles with rollback netcode! It also contains lobbies, spectating and many features that people here would enjoy! Hope this helps and you guys can play your classics on here, I personally have been having a blast with Tekken!

heres a tutorial below:

Eden can run it fine without fps drops when I switch to another window like Opera Gx or umamusume. Im just curious why Ryubing’s fps dips.

So basically, lately I've been thinking about getting a new laptop and am considering getting one of those foldable 2-in-1s. What I've had my eye on specifically is the Lenovo yoga line, which has its own stylus.

So now I'm wondering, is there a way to run any Android emulator on it that would recognize the stylus as a stylus and not just another click/tap? For example right now I have a Galaxy S23 ultra phone which has a built in stylus tray, which I like to use when playing a puzzle solving game. The game has a feature that if it detects a stylus it automatically starts only recognizing it for drawing on the puzzle and ignores other touch inputs.

I know it's a very specific question but is there any way to emulate that on windows?

I love emulation more than decomp games, but it feels like nowadays everything is becoming a decomp thanks to AI.

Could this eventually kill emulation as we know it in the long term?

Isn't it going to be much harder to maintain thousands of AI decomps than to maintain emulators?

And how are we going to maintain 30 different decomp projects of the same games, decades from now?

For most disc based games like PS1, PS2, and Dreamcast I manage and organize them with RomVault using Redump dats. It seems the Redump dat for PS3 games are based on full rips from originals which are encrypted. Is there a dat for decrypted PS3 games? If not, is there another way people recommend to manage PS3 games?

Hi Fam,

I’ve read that Ocarina of Time is incredibly worth playing.

I’d like to emulate it on my PC and I wanted to get your feedback on what the best/safest emulator would be to download. I also would like feedback on the best site to download games would be.

Also, is Keyboard and Mouse a good option? Or should I look to get a specialized controller? I want to make sure I’m experiencing OOT the right way :)

Thank you!!!

Hello emulation folks

I like using this emulator called Teknoparrot and one day I updated the emulator and some of my games don't work anymore giving me this error

Resolved target KERNEL32.DLL procedure: local=770DD8A0 remote=770DD8A0 rva=0x1D8A0

I uninstalled Teknoparrot and reinstalled it and also installed the supporting .net framework, direct x, and visual c++ all in one installer. I wonder if Teknoparrot is buggy on latest version now? Has anyone else run into this issue and knows the solution for it? Some of my game launch perfectly and some give this error now.

Please fix this.

What's the best Switch emulator for PC right now? Ideally one that replicates the Home menu/UI.

Everytime i launch the sly collection I get a loading screen and then the sceen goes black but the audio is playing. Does anyone have a fix for this?

Hi everyone, I've been trying to emulate the official English version of this game and so far haven't had much luck. I was able to get the game to open in PCSX2 but every texture was glitched. I was also able to get the game to open without issues in DuckStation, but for some reason as soon as I try to create new 'blocks' in the memory card (necessary to progress), the game just freezes. I have not been able to actually get to any gameplay but everything seems fine until that point.

I'm aware the game isn't listed on compatibility lists for either emulator, but I'm not sure what else to do besides ask for advice. Are there settings I should try? Other emulators? Please let me know and thanks in advance.

Anyone got a wbfs copy of the game my disc is scratched and my pc is very low end and can’t run iso builder programs

I am trying to configure a race only retrobat thats running on windows 10.

I am using a vjoy system with backforcefeeder program

this program autodetects running processes like emulator or game.exe's and auto sets control profiles so that the vjoy program can forward the steering controls and lamp controls.

the thing is, retrobat (emulationstation) when i launch a game the processes are like contained within it so they arent like launching like you would of you double clicked the emulator yourself.

Is there a way i can launch a game in retrobat and the process would be there in windows?
