libretro/beetle-lynx-libretro

Standalone port of Mednafen Lynx to libretro, itself a fork of Handy.

beetle-lynx-libretro's Issues

Add support for headerless (NO-INTRO) romsets.

Handy can run them (Not sure if they did it the "right way", like NESTOPIA or by hacks)
Either way, if you do decide to add support for it (as you should cause no matter the scene drama, headerless is the way to go) consider studying the way NESTOPIA dealt with it, a database that maps each rom correctly instead of just passing whatever the hell there is to pass onto the emulator.
In the case of the Lynx that should be ezpz, as the library consists of about 80 games...
Thanks.

Tested on Wii u

Block Out pause button bug

Block Out

Is there supposed to be screen tearing in this core?

Every game I've tested exhibits screen tearing on both my 60hz monitors. Vsync is enabled. I never owned a Lynx so maybe this is how it looked? My the actual Lynx had screen tearing?

[Wii Feature Request] Wiiflow Lite plugin

The core freeintv don't work as Wiiflow plugins, when entering the game he goes back to the Wiiflow Lite menu...

bug wrong retropad buttons never got fixed

It's fake

  { 0, RETRO_DEVICE_JOYPAD, 0, RETRO_DEVICE_ID_JOYPAD_B,     "A" },
  { 0, RETRO_DEVICE_JOYPAD, 0, RETRO_DEVICE_ID_JOYPAD_A,     "B" },
  { 0, RETRO_DEVICE_JOYPAD, 0, RETRO_DEVICE_ID_JOYPAD_L,     "Opt 1" },
  { 0, RETRO_DEVICE_JOYPAD, 0, RETRO_DEVICE_ID_JOYPAD_R,     "Opt 2" },

but actually
Joypad B = B
Joypad A = A
Joypad L = Option 2
Joypad R = Option 1

@LibretroAdmin you don't believe me?
try this game or more games
Dracula the Undead (USA, Europe)
or this game
Zaku (USA) (Unl)
they told me which buttons to start or select/mute games

[Feature Request] Core for Wii?

Hi there, just wondering why this core is not available on Retroarch for Wii.

Atari - Lynx (Beetle Lynx) won't open my roms

Atari - Lynx (Beetle Lynx) won't open my roms (Error loading content)

Atari - Lynx (Beetle Lynx) does not open my roms I get the message (Error loading content) when loading atari lynx roms in .lnx and .zip format, I don't know what to do, the video driver I use was GL and the VULKAN, I already restarted my retroarch and it remains the same, I also already put the original Bios that Retroarch asks for and even so it does not load the roms.

With the Atari - Lynx (Handy) if I load the roms, but I want to try the "Bettle Lynx", what could be happening? I use the latest versions of Retroarch as well as the core.

bugfixes and improvements for both handy lynx emulator cores

The two cores have different bugs and features, @LibretroAdmin better fix them at the same time

These fixes shouldn't be hard, because they are all handy

Beetle Lynx

bug: Block Out (USA, Europe)
The Pause button will no longer work. you have already pressed it once and cannot press it again
This games can't be played because it's paused completely

bug: libretro wrong button name and wrong button binding
Opt 1,Option,Opt 2 should be Option 1, Pause, Option 2
Rename the Option to Pause, Rename Opt 1 to Option 1, Rename Opt 2 to Option 2

Don't change the position of these two buttons, bind them as the correct buttons
