@a1rwulf Many thanks for the tip. I added those commits and it compiles and launches fine!

I had tried a few days ago compiling using mainstream mupen64plus, i like to be as up to date as possible, but it would not compile and was throwing errors I did not know what to do.

Something along the lines of:

Code:
error: /tmp/ccqkMgZK.ltrans0.ltrans.o: requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against 'co_active_handle' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC

Ah OK, that's bad - seems they reintroduced this error again.
Thanks for posting this.
This error happend to me a while ago - it took me several days to trace the issue and finally the guys from retroarch fixed it on their side.
I'll need to get in contact with them again.

Meanwhile you'll need to stick with the state of my fork.

I had a short look into it.
Following commit fixed this compile error:
https://github.com/a1rwulf/mupen64plus-l...e3e111e82a

Unfortunately there was a refactoring done which reintroduced the former version of libco:
https://github.com/libretro/mupen64plus-...8a4fc530f3

Not sure why.
If you have some spare time you could take the changes of the fix and reapply it on top of the current master.
Nonetheless I will check if we can get this mainline again.

Is this an OpenELEC test build or did you compile on your own?
There something weird with the snes-mercury core.

Have a look at the very first page of this thread, there are plenty of builds available thanks to garbear & friends Smile

thanks ill try it out.

Awesome progress so far!

Really looking forward to a new RPI2 build. I installed the latest available one (2015-10-27) today and was able to start some games, but couldn't play them because the buttons for my wireless 360 controller don't seem to be recognized in the controller configuration screen.

Yeah that commit fixed it. Had to make a slight amendment as libco has now moved from the libretro dir to the libretro-common dir. Also had to tweak patch 02 > http://paste.ubuntu.com/14247094/ as the line numbers did not match, thanks

Only issue I am now having is that the analogue stick is no longer working in the emulator. It works fine on the controller setup dialogue in kodi, It previously worked perfectly (the last OE buld by garbear with n64 support) and I pushed the keymap to peripheral-joystick. The right analogue stick is working as Cup, Cdown:

Code:
<feature name="cdown" axis="+4" />

            <feature name="cleft" axis="-3" />

            <feature name="cright" axis="+3" />

            <feature name="cup" axis="-4" />

But the left analogue stick (as an analogstick) is not controlling the movement of mario:

Code:
<feature name="analogstick">

                <up axis="-1" />

                <right axis="+0" />

If I run through the setup of the controller and made a change and then look at the timestamp of the buttonmaps last modification, if reflects the recent change, but in game it is still not working? I'm so close!

Any ideas?

I'm not up-to-date with the latest changes of the peripheral.joystick code.
But it seems that there's sth going wrong with the axis handling:

Do you have a system for debugging?
Maybe @garbear can help here?

Did you do any manual changes - if not it seems to me like something went wrong with this build.

Code:

According to your log, game.libretro.bsnes-mercury.so is looking for a libstdc++ version that's different than the one the system is using.
Can't think of any case how this is possible in the cross-build toolchain of openelec.

Other systems like NES do work?

bibi · (This post was last modified: 2015-12-30, 12:06 by bibi.)

Hi A1rwulf,

Everything works fine with NES, when i launch a game it proposes me to choose between different emulators. Guess i'll have to wait for the next build.

Also, i tried to launch Tekken 3 (playstation) and i get another issue: it tries to launch with the Stella emulator (atari 2600), whithout asking me anything.
Is there a way to choose the emulator manually ?

bibi, I made that OE build and although I am not running that exact one at the moment, I tried a SNES game on my current build last night and all worked fine.

I'll upload a new build for you to try in a few days. Was hoping to get the analogue stick working on n64 games with latest mupen64 before uploading a build, but I have no idea what is wrong.
