Release Emu EX Plus Alpha ported to the Pandora
- Thread starter ptitSeb
- Start date
I am having some issues with those emus (at least GBC and SNES) on my CC Pandora. I suppose this is related to the GPU drivers, but I couldn't find one that works properly. Basically it seems that a portion of the screen gets updated slightly later than the rest of the screen (the top right quarter of the screen). So this is not exactly tearing, since it is related to a square area, but it looks similar. Can you have a flawless experience with those emus on a CC Pandora please?

I have the same behavour on my Gigahertz. I think it's the way the screen is refreshed...

Still fresh, damnit!
Reminds me of the Wiz screen refresh issues. Surely there can be no link though?

For those interested, I updated my builds with the latest sources.

Thank you so much ptitSeb! Actually I was quite excited by Seldon's report about the tearing fix. So I downloaded the latest version, and indeed the tearing was fixed (for example in the GBC emu)! A huge improvement!
However, when I ran the GBC emu again, the tearing reappeared! Very strange, since I was indeed sure it had gone last time I had launched it. Now every time I launch it, the tearing is there again, even after a reboot. I'll try to investigate more, and see if this tearing may have another cause.
Thanks for the great work!
(btw, do you think it could be possible to remove the vertical dotted line on the top right corner of the screen, obviously coming from the Android version? It is useless on the Pandora since the space bar can bring the menu, and it would be less annoying for people who like full screen games)
Edit: ok, I have a pattern. If the config file exists in the corresponding appdata folder of the GBC emu, the tearing is back. If I delete it, the tearing will be gone on the next launch. When I quit, the config file is recreated again, and from this moment, all future launches will have tearing. I hope it will help fix this issue once and for all, because those emus are really good. Thank you!

So I suppose the saturn emulator does not perform very well on pandora?

About the UI element coming from Android UI, I'll see if I can remove it (I'll just remove the 3 doted png by putting a blank picture
).For the tearing, it's very strange, because the config file is suposed to reflect exactly the config used. But it seems it's not the case, and 1 element is writen in the config but is not active at first start... Interesting find !

Those dot's can be removed by setting On-screen Input Setup -> Open Menu Button -> Off. No need for any special fixAbout the UI element coming from Android UI, I'll see if I can remove it (I'll just remove the 3 doted png by putting a blank picture

Merci, bonne année aussi.
I have stated cheking at the issue. I confirm I reproduce it, but haven't found why it does this. it's a very strange issue I must say.

Ok, thank you. That's good if you can at least reproduce it on your side. Maybe it's not a bad value written inside the settings file, but is more related to the code logic (it may take another initialization path if the settings file is present in the appdata folder). Anyway, good luck with this one!
