Update the Rice plugin ? #638

Closed MastaG closed 4 years ago

Hi, I've been testing Parallel-n64 on my XU4 for a while. Please merge: https://github.com/libretro/parallel-n64/pull/637 as this fixes the segfaults when stopping the emulator on all arm platforms (including Android).

It seems on the XU4 (OpenGL ES) only Rice and GL64 seen to render games in full speed. Glide64 and angrylion are really slow and bugged (but perhaps they target the regular GL libs which are software rendered since the XU4 only supports ES).

So GL64 renders most things fine but has very small polygon clipping issues. Rice is almost perfect but has this nasty issue where the camera glitches out in DK64. The game is really smooth, but the camera stutters in some way. I believe this was fixed in later releases of the Rice video plugin.

So my question is whether it's possible to bump the Rice plugin?

IMO there seems to be little reason to use this emulator if you're not using angrylion/parallel. if you want to use HLE n64 video plugins, just use https://github.com/libretro/mupen64plus-libretro-nx
