I don't know what happened but every time I try to play something on RetroArch it's in slow motion (with slowed down sound and everything). The only ones that still seem to be working are NES games. This is happening regardless of which cores I use. I've tried to set it up from scratch again but it's still not working. What the hell did I do?

Your computer is not fast enough or you accidentally hit the slowdown button.

My computer is fast enough since until recently I could play these games just fine, so that's the good news.
I'm leaning towards the slowdown button but I've tried to hit the speed up button and nothing really happened. Trying to replace the config file does nothing either. I've just been playing using each separate emulator but I already miss how convenient RatroArch is!

Instead of starting a new thread, I just want to throw in my two cents here.
I had like, a GUI-only version of the same issue. Lunching the program takes a solid minute when it used to boot instantly. Launching a game, same thing. Sometimes it would just crash altogether. Sometimes, _sometimes_, after a clean install it would go back to its originally functionality...until something or other caused it to start running horribly again. Sometimes completely shutting down my computer and rebooting would help, but that's stopped working all of a sudden, too.
I have an i7 with a Geforce 6gig 1060 and 16 gigs of RAM, so simply not being fast enough to run it seems...unlikely.

They often don't update the cores, scared of breaking it or vice versa- without extensive amount of testing it becomes all over the place after the updates. |

They often don't update the cores, scared of breaking it or vice versa- without extensive amount of testing it becomes all over the place after the updates. The unified interface/launcher of RetroArch has become kind of a necessity for me ever since I installed it on my HTPC. I can use a single 8bitdo bluetooth controller to launch RetroArch from within Kodi, find whatever game/system I want to launch, use a combination of keypresses to exit the game and get back to the main menu, etc. If this were all running on my computer, I wouldn't mind firing up each individual emulator to get the best performance. But when it's all running on my TV, it's simply too much of a pain to have to dig out the keyboard and mouse (or, in this case, a BT mini-keyboard with trackpad that I have sitting in the remote caddy in case something crashes). |
