Majora's Mask Bomber's Notebook Crash #247

Open KiwiZelda opened 4 years ago

KiwiZelda commented 4 years ago

Hi all,

You'll have to forgive me - full disclosure, I'm not a coder. I have managed to get homebrew software running on my Nintendo Switch and have all kinds of fun with it, so I'm not totally ignorant... but if things get technical on this thread I may need extra explaining.

I'm running retroarch on my Switch (OS: Atmosphere 0.10.5), with the Mupen64plus Next core.

Majora's Mask is running into what I am aware is a common problem - the Bomber's Notebook. I understand that the Notebook renders at a higher resolution than the original game, which may be the source of the problem. However while others seem to report a garbled screen or a blackout, the problem I'm getting is slightly different,

If I enter the Notebook and then press B to exit within a couple of seconds, it exits fine. However if I scroll through the Notebook at all, and then press B to exit, the game/Retroarch invariably freezes and then I have to bring up the Switch menu and force close Retroarch.

I have checked and I am definitely running Mupen64plus "Next", as opposed to the old Mupen64plus. I only downloaded and installed Retroarch in the last couple months so it should be relatively up to date.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Any fix?

I think the video linked directly above by zerofalcon might have been useful, I can't remember. Worth checking it out

I tried that video, the patch is good(dpad items, bug fixes, etc). But the notebook still crashed sadly
