Updates for Game Boy Advance cores #3

Closed leiradel closed 7 years ago

leiradel commented 7 years ago

vbam-libretro should be working just fine, it just needs some tests to validate. The mGBA core should also be working.

vba-next doesn't support the memory map interface, so achievements won't work ok with it.

meleu commented 7 years ago

Are you talking about Game Boy or Game Boy Advance?

leiradel commented 7 years ago

vbam-libretro and vba-next only support GBA. mGBA suports GB, GBC and GBA, but it only supports achievements for GBA games.

meleu commented 7 years ago

Thanks, I'm going to update the core compatibility list.

leiradel commented 7 years ago

Please notice that I believe mGBA and vbam-libretro are working ok with achievements, I'm not 100% positive.

leiradel commented 7 years ago

Maybe mGBA should also appear in the Game Boy/Game Boy Color list, but as not supported?

meleu commented 7 years ago

No problem. @grenade44 gave some feedback on that retroachievements.org post, and he is using mgba. I think @Cabrunco tested some GBA cheevos in mgba too.

Maybe mGBA should also appear in the Game Boy/Game Boy Color list, but as not supported?

I agree.

meleu commented 7 years ago

@leiradel do you have something to say about vba-next?

leiradel commented 7 years ago

I already did! :)

vba-next doesn't support the memory map interface, so achievements won't work ok with it.

meleu commented 7 years ago

Oh sorry! :sweat_smile: I'll put this info in the list.

meleu commented 7 years ago

I renamed the title for Game Boy Advance specific If we have updates for other system, let's open another issue. :wink:

chewvodka commented 7 years ago

Will there be cheevo capabilities in mGBA for regular GB/GBC or when you say it only supports GBA that means never? By default, RetroPie (though you don't necessarily have to use it) runs GB/GBC roms in Gambatte. Is that a compatible core to check on? It does work as far as pulling the cheevo list..

leiradel commented 7 years ago

For now, mGBA will only support GBA achievements. For GB/GBC, I have a fix to Gambatte waiting to be discussed and approved by the libretro team. If you know how to clone and compile a libretro core, you can try the fix directly from my repository.

leiradel commented 7 years ago

@meleu I think we can close this issue, as the list has already been updated.
