Libreto Core? #1160

Closed thanone2 closed 3 months ago

Your suggestion

I am suggesting that a libreto core be made for Retroarch, then I believe that there would be an easier time porting the emulator to other platforms, because you would only be compiling once per update, and it would be unlikely for problems to occur because the Retroarch team would be the ones to port their own app to other platforms.

Someone already asked about this in #323, the gist of it is "this is a low priority for us, but anyone else is welcome to step in and create a PR to make it happen."

This is kinda an obvious enough suggestion that it doesn't need tracking unless someone is actually working on it. As of now it's very far outside the scope for the current team so I will be closing this Also your assessment that it will make porting easier isn't correct. It can help a little bit in some regard but the actual blockers wouldn't be resolved. Plus the mountain of work it would require to turn Cemu into a libretro core would offset any benefit.

ok, sorry, but thanks for the explanation!
