RetroDECK 0.8.2b

Release date: 2024-06-XX

Updates

Everything was updated to their latest version where possible.

• Emulators
• ES-DE
• Engines
• RetroArch: Stable Cores and Nightly Cores

Freedesktop upgrade

We upgraded freedesktop 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 from retrodeck/roms. It's for those users that don't want to have a bunch of empty subfolders populating retrodeck/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 populating retrodeck/roms and ran the Empty 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 deleted retrodeck/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.

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)
