Posted by Sorer The problem in melonDS is another one. It constantly reconfigures the MMU, which triggers the recalculation of a lot of stuff which normally is only done once at the start. Though when looked at the problem, I tried the game in desmume (latest from git) and it worked fine there. Posted by Lestari If you use the software renderer you can try enabling filtering. This makes the image a bit blurry, but it usually looks better than non filtered scaling at any non integer scale. ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go!

if you're using the OpenGL renderer it's likely a driver bug.
If you do use the OGL renderer, can you try switching to the software renderer by going to Config->Video Settings then select Software. It shouldn't matter if OpenGL display is enabled. ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go! "clearly you need to mow more lawns and buy a better pc" - Hydr8gon |

bumping a post because you didn't receive an answer in a few hours is considered rude in a lot of online forums.
I don't like making posts without actual content, so let me rant a bit about this. Like many open source projects melonDS only has a single lead developer Arisotura, in melonDS's case there's also me working on specific things like the JIT and there's the occasional pull request on github. MacOS is niche, while it might be more common among hipster web developers it's even less common among people working on emulators than it's share on the total pc market. Not only that but apple doesn't do developers a favor. They get away with this on the phone market, where they have a share big enough. But on the desktop market they only hurt themselves by cutting support for OpenGL or requiring to use objective-C, besides other things. Microsoft gives out free VM images for web developers to test how well they're websites run in internet explorer or edge. Admittedly that's not microsofts effort, but it's possible to cross compile application from linux to windows. What do you have to do if you don't have a mac and want to compile mac applications, besides buying one? Setting up a mac os installation in various shady ways, I hope you see my point. ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go!

the DS microphone is very flimsy and primitive and so it's quite easy to hit peak with it, which is exactly what games seek for. Microphone input doesn't work well because there are all kinds of mechanisms on software and hardware level made to prevent just that. And white noise doesn't hit peak often enough.
When experimenting with this I recorded a WAV file via a little test homebrew on my 3DS, it works atleast to inflate ballons in Mario Kart DS: https://kuribo64.net/get.php?id=htnjCD3D8UDID4v0 ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go!

I'm not a linux expert, but try right clicking the file, then select properties or something like that and then permissions. There have to be a checkbox where you can set the file to be executable ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go!

this is a bit of an mess and I want to apologise in advance, because I'm partly responsible.
Via the homebrew app store an old version (as of a few days, I already contacted it's maintainer) of my switch build which includes the JIT and neon optimisations is available. For some reason I decided not to stick with Hydr8gon's file structure. All of the preparation files (bios7.bin, bios9.bin, firmware.bin and romlist.bin) need to go into /melonds while the roms go into /roms/ds (conviniently the place I already had my roms when I started with the new frontend  ). You better download the newest version yourself here
The libretro core currently doesn't contain any of these optimisiations, so it runs quite badly. ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go! "clearly you need to mow more lawns and buy a better pc" - Hydr8gon |

> 1: A dedicated microphone button. Lots of ds games use the microphone and sometimes its unplayable without them. A simple button input for the mic would be great.
assuming you're using my JIT+other optimisations build, it is already implemented, press down the left stick. > 2: Cheats/datapacks. Lots of content in games are linked or hidden away to events such as Pokémon WIFI events. Cheats would make these roms be able to be fully played. Arisotura is currently working on cheat support for melonDS. It's still WIP and will be integrated into the Switch port once it's done. ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go!

more sophisticated debugging options are planned once we get the GUI issues sorted out (see https://melonds.kuribo64.net/comments.php?id=112 ) ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go! "clearly you need to mow more lawns and buy a better pc" - Hydr8gon |

1. melonDS is accurate enough not to require AP patches
2. even if you would have to apply anti piracy patches, it's smarter to get hold of a clean rom first, because you can always apply the patches yourself afterwards ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go! "clearly you need to mow more lawns and buy a better pc" - Hydr8gon |

it's already implemented thanks to Chagall, though not yet in the latest version
see here: https://melonds.kuribo64.net/comments.php?id=110 if you have Github account you can download the build automatically compiled with Github Workflow, otherwise you can wait or build melonDS yourself ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go!

yes, master is what's going to be the next version. Our work method is relatively simple. ____________________ Take me to your heart / never let me go! "clearly you need to mow more lawns and buy a better pc" - Hydr8gon |
