Having some trouble getting multidisk games brought together in RetroArch. I followed the tutorials of how to create m3u files and manually added them into my playlist, but as soon as I try to load them, it crashes retroarch immediately. All the tutorials I watched that used this were on Windows.

  • RetroArch refers to each actual emulator as a 'core'. This is because, instead of downloading the actual emulator itself and running it in the background, the 'emulatey' part of the emulator is.
  • Maybe for auto updates, so that you always have the latest version of RetroArch and the latest version of the cores. They also mention in the article that releasing only a few cores at a time will help them focus on reports from users for only a few cores at a time, allowing them to polish those cores without being overwhelmed by bug reports for 60 different cores.
  • RetroArch is a open-source / cross-platform front-end for emulators, game engines, video games. It's the reference implementation of the libretro API.

RetroArch is coming to Steam as a free download on July 30, marking what appears to be the largest non-commercial emulation launch ever on Valve's digital download storefront. The news came on Friday via an announcement from Libretro, the open source development collective that maintains the RetroArch launcher app for a massive range of operating systems.

In an email interview with Ars Technica, Libretro's Daniel De Matteis claimed that the software's impending launch did not require any conversations with Steam over the storefront's rules about emulation. However, there does appear to be a fuzzy dance going on with this launch, as Friday's announcement includes the following curious claim: 'While there is nothing particularly [sic] about RetroArch or the Libretro API that has anything to do with emulators, most do.. use it for this purpose.' We're not sure what other use case is enabled by RetroArch, honestly. Its menu system revolves around finding, downloading, updating, and booting 'cores' that are dedicated to emulating classic video game consoles, and by default, it leads users to cores that advertise compatibility with games from popular consoles made by Nintendo, Sega, Sony, and others.

Valve doesn't appear to have any public-facing rules about whether emulators are allowed on Steam, and poking around Steam reveals a few limited emulator apps. A pair of announcements about rules for Steam's discussion boards, meanwhile, make patently clear that discussions about emulators are expressly forbidden—and are classified as a 'piracy' topic. Valve representatives did not immediately answer our questions about RetroArch.

The version of RetroArch coming to Steam on July 30 will be identical to the one you could otherwise download from RetroArch's official site, though the team is limiting Steam's launch to Windows 'to make sure we can handle the demand' before adding MacOS and Linux options down the line. Thus, whatever you download from Steam won't include any emulators, per se. Instead, the app will direct you to emulator download options with only a few clicks through its default, online-connected interface. Crucially, RetroArch does not include download links within its app to console-specific BIOS files. For most RetroArch emulators, you'll need one of these to boot any software, and if you don't rip a BIOS file directly from your legally owned console, you may enter a legally gray area as a result. (The same goes for whatever games or ROMs you load into said emulators, as well.)

Advertisement De Matteis tells Ars that this Steam version has been in the works 'for a few months now,' and he expresses specific interest in using Steamworks' Web API for future RetroArch builds. If such features are built, he says, that would create a fork in RetroArch's build distribution; until then, what you download from RetroArch's official site will be identical to the builds on Steam. (In a long-story-short explanation, De Matteis says that the Web API may prove necessary for the following red-tape reason: 'There are certain licensing 'how many angels can stand on the head of a pin' issues that pertain to the Steamworks SDK and how the GPL license interprets what constitutes a system library or not.')'We have bandied about the term 'cross-platform game console' a lot, and a lot of people might not really know what that means,' De Matteis says. 'But we hope as we add more and more platforms on which RetroArch can run, people will start realizing what we're going for—and why porting applications to the Libretro API is such a powerful and compelling thing that has nothing but positive benefits for users and developers alike.'

This article has been updated to clarify emulator availability on Steam.

Presentation

RetroArch is shipped with a lot of shaders. There is an overwhelming array of them and we can't show all of them on this page.

Here are a few common examples:

Shaders can also be used to display the handheld border:

Shader languages and shader presets

Shaders are small programs, and they are written in specific programming languages. RetroArch supports 3 of these languages:

Retroarch steam banner
  • CG: Old, deprecated format. Might not be available if RetroArch is built without Cg runtime support.
  • GLSL: Shader format available to OpenGL. Wide range of platforms including phones and tablets.
  • Slang: New and recommended shader format, when available. Compatible with Vulkan, Direct3D 10/11/12, OpenGL Core, WiiU and Metal renderers.

Depending on your platform and the way you have configured RetroArch, you need to use one of these shader types. Swindon town twitter.

RetroArch is also able to stack these shaders to create a combined effect. These complex effects are saved with a special extension:

  • .cpg for CG
  • .glslp for GLSL
  • .slangp for Slang

The shader presets can also have parameters. This means that you can tweak them to fit your needs.

Downloading and upgrading shaders

You can download or upgrade the shader packs for the 3 types in Main Menu->Online Updater.

Loading a shader preset

To enable a shader preset, you need to have a game running.

You then trigger the menu and you should see a Shaders entry in the Quick Menu.

Go to Load Shader Preset and choose a preset file.

For this example, we used shaders_glsl/crt/crt-geom.glslp.

Configuring a shader

Retroarch Steam Launch

In this example, we have set the Menu Shader pipeline to OFF and the Background Opacity to 0 in the Settings->User Interface->Menu to be able to preview the parameter changes in live.

Load a game and apply a shader preset that supports parameters like shaders_glsl/crt/crt-geom.glslp.
