RetroDECK 0.8.2b
Release date: 2024-07-17
NEW Warning - Do not upgrade to 0.8.2b!
There is a bug with 0.8.2b that makes the scraped data not move to the correct folders it should. A hotfix patch 0.8.3b will be out to fix the problem.
Notice - Ryujinx Issue:
There is a reported about Ryujinx not working as well as it should, please read more in the Known Issues page. We are working with the Ryujinx Team to to solve it in a minor upcoming patch 0.8.4b
Thanks: Ryujinx Team - TSR Berry
We would like to thank TSR Berry of the Ryujinx Team for working with us and helping us making Ryujinx better in RetroDECK (and Linux) over the recent months.
TSR Berry is still hammering things out (related to the issue above), but Ryujinx should have a better handling of symlinks on Linux after TSR Berrys work is done. This will make everything in RetroDECK more clean with various subfolders and allow us do more things later on.
If you are using a standalone Ryujinx outside of RetroDECK this will also benefit you as you can use symlinks.
We hope to do a tiny update 0.8.3b when all the fixes are in.
Updates
Everything was updated to their latest version where possible.
- Emulators
- ES-DE
- Engines
- RetroArch: Stable Cores and Nightly Cores
Framework upgrade
We upgraded KDE Framework to 6.7, the original plan was to do this during 0.9.0b but we manged to squeeze it in now thanks to new PR's in Dolphin and Primehack.
RetroDECK Configurator
Added:
- A new
Empty ROMs folder removal
tool. This tools cleans up empty folders fromretrodeck/roms
. It's for those users that don't want to have a bunch of empty subfolders populatingretrodeck/roms
to keep it slim and clean for the games they play. - A new
Rebuild removed ROMs folders
tool. It's for those users that did not want to have a bunch of empty folders populatingretrodeck/roms
and ran theEmpty ROMs folder removal
tool. But then realized after a long bit of pondering and regret that they still wanted them. Or it can be used by those users that accidentally deletedretrodeck/roms
subfolders while moving files around (you know who you are).
Fixed:
- A problem with
.chd
compression that was introduced in 0.8.1b. - A problem with multi-file compression tool that prevented some file types to be properly converted that was introduced in 0.8.1b.
CEMU
Added:
- Added microphone blow input to R3 (this only works is some games).
Fixed:
- A problem with audio output on when docking and undocking.
- A problem with input for certain users, reset CEMU after the update and it should work if you got an issue.
Dolphin
News:
- Dolphin have implemented RetroAchievements, but we have not added autologin via the Configurator yet (it will come in a later update) as this was a last minute addition to 0.8.2b. But you can login manually by opening the Emulator via the Configurator and login via the achivemnets window under the tools menu.
Duckstation
Changed:
- Duckstation is now out of the rolling release, the build should be more stable now albeit we're still using tested nighties.
RetroDECK Framework / Backend:
Added:
- Enabled a self-hosted Gitea repo for disaster recovery.
- Added headless states for some functions (this will help to migrate to the Godot Configurator)
Fixed:
- An issue where second level subfolders inside retrodeck folder were not correctly placed, this caused errors on ES-DE as
themes
anddownloaded_media
folder could not be found after a reset or first install.
