DryFour Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Hello, I trying to get Retroarch to work with TG16 but only getting black screen in retroarch. Only 1 game works, Alien Crush game, the others get a black screen. GBA games works fine in retroarch. PCE fast core: Medanafen 0.9.28 Anyone experienced the same issue? Thank you
Fromlostdays Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I haven't done TG16 yet, but the first thing I would check is to see if all my roms are in the same format, and if that format was supported by the core. Walter:beerglass:
DryFour Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 The roms are all in the same format (PCE) as they all work in the demo version of Magic Engine. I would like to use Retroarch for TG16 for the bezel support I believe there might be a new core out 0.9.36 but i dunno where to find it.
Fromlostdays Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I realize I'm not being very helpful - I'm at work with no access to my personal computer - but have you turned off all the bells and whistles, like bezels? Are you getting the black screen launching through Hyperlaunch? Have you tried launching through the standard retroarch gui? Which retroarch version are you using? Have you read the module notes to see if you need a bios - I'm pretty sure you do for this. If you're using Hyperlaunch, could you post your troubleshooting logs? Get the games to launch in RetroArch Standalone first, then we can work out the kinks in Hyperlaunch. Walter:beerglass:
SIMPLYAUSTIN Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 most common problems with RA.... No BIOS or its in the wrong place Zip or not zipped Roms wrong format of roms wrong choice of file format wrong choice of core worng version Simply Austin's YouTube
Awakened Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Many Goodrom verified TG16 ROMs don't work with Mednafen because they're byte swapped incorrectly (Magic Engine is programmed to deal with that mistake I think, so they work with that). No-Intro ROMs work fine.
DryFour Posted November 14, 2014 Author Posted November 14, 2014 Thanks everyone for their input. Since the game dont launch on the Retroarch GUI itself and can only launch a limited numbers of title. What Awakened is saying makes a lot of sense. Since I dont have a way to get a no intro set and mine is already renamed to match HYperspin DB i will go purchase magic engine. Thanks everyone.
