[nevmind]

Platform / OS / Hardware: Android

Precondition.

• install Flycast 2.3 apk
• install ES-DE_3.0.3-26

Test Procedure.

1. Run ES-DE in Android.
2. select button on any naomi game to set altemulator to "Flycast (Standalone)" which means Flycast standalone app.
3. See if game is launched correctly or not.

Actual Result : Just display Flycast gamelist screen. and doens't start game.

Additional Info. : Flycast 2.0 : no problem Flycast 2.1 : no problem Flycast 2.2 : has problem Flycast 2.3 : has problem

Flycast 2.3.2-164-g33d1afdb in Android Playstore (Git Hash : 33d1afdb) : has problem and
1 more problem -> cannot be recognized as standalone emulator by following es_find_rules.xml of ES-DE

<emulator name="FLYCAST">
    <!-- Sega Dreamcast emulator Flycast -->
    <rule type="androidpackage">
        <entry>com.flycast.emulator/com.reicast.emulator.MainActivity</entry>
    </rule>
</emulator>

So, I have tried modifed following es_find_rules.xml -> can be recognized as standalone emulator but doesn't launch game.

<emulator name="FLYCAST">
    <!-- Sega Dreamcast emulator Flycast -->
    <rule type="androidpackage">
        <entry>com.flycast.emulator/com.flycast.emulator.MainActivity</entry>
    </rule>
</emulator>

Are u changing package name of MainActivity? Need to specify clearly to ES-DE team. So they can change es_find_rules.xml correctly.

updated more information about this bug

This regression is due to this change: 87fdd203b57fae24ae25e30613726f6a8a6fb2a0, which was included in 2.2. I will push a fix soon.

I also changed the name of the main activity from com.reicast.emulator.MainActivityto com.flycast.emulator.MainActivity but this is a recent change and doesn't impact v2.2 or v2.3. The Google Play version does have this change as you found out.

So is this something that needs fixing on flycast side? Or should we talk to ES-DE as well to update the activity name?

[flyinghead]

A fix is also needed on the Flycast side, which I haven't committed yet.

When is next fixed version supposed to be released?
