Runs fine on Wine, use that.

>>106139739
Even better, use one of the multiple other solutions. Check PS emulator cores available for retroarch (or any other libretro-compatible stack, like Kodi)

>>106139674 (OP)
wayland xisters....

>>106139810
>retroarch

>>106139840
The cores exist, which means the larger project for those emulators exist. I'm not gonna do the googling for you, anon.

None as good as duckstation.

Give me examples or you're larping and this is a bait thread

>>106139914
mednafen is more accurate without needing daily updoots.

>>106139674 (OP)
What is it about consoles and emulation that attracts the seriously fucking deranged? I'd expect it to be mostly middle aged faggots wanting to play games they enjoyed in their childhood but no, every time I hear from one of these fucking projects it's ALWAYS because one of the tranny maintainers had another fucking melty. Get. A. Fucking. Grip.

>>106139968
Examples of what? Are you well?
>>106139991
It's also not nearly as performant.

>>106140016
You're looking at it from the wrong perspective, something I suspect happens to you frequently. Emulator users are by far the most entitled and aggressive of all software users. They will demand that your free project accommodates all their very specific needs, even if you're screeching about a fork they had nothing to do with.

Usecase for the duck when the swan exists?

>>106139890
ebussy should implement a feature to uninstall software from people's computers

>>106139674 (OP)
Yeah, it was totally because of the users..

>>106140054
now THIS is a USE CASE!

That dev is a massive drama queen. If it wasn't for arch he would have just found another reason to cut support. Don't even understand why people still contribute code for his projects.

what's stopping someone from forking the last GPL version of Duckstation and just copying all the fixes since the license was changed?

>>106140097

Is that how you deal with all of your problems? No wonder why you're perpetually pissed off and ignored.

Gayland moment

>>106140057
i aint reading all that
@grok summorize this for me

I'm going to ask here, I'm sorry:
What is the .bin.ecm format and what is the difference with .bin or .iso? What is it preferable?

>>106140057
not reading anything from a braindead zoomer that doesn't know how paragraphs work.
Are zoomers really this illiterate?

>>106140355
>wayland doesn't tolerate schizo jeetcode
based

>>106139674 (OP)
use retropie

>>106140361
run the cue file if it's there, otherwise the iso.

>>106140361
ecms are compressed images, bins are raw binary data and typically have a cue sheet with them to tell programs what to do with said raw data. As far as I know ecm compressed images are really old and you should maybe find a better source of rips if that's what you're dealing with. I personally prefer the bin/cue format over straight ISO, but either works.

>>106140370
>not reading
>Are zoomers really this illiterate?
Apparently.

>>106140432
Do you not understand how paragraphs work either?
No one is reading a huge ass wall of text with no formatting, you wouldn't pass a basic english class writing like this lmao.

>>106139674 (OP)
the AUR is a mistake and no one can prove me wrong.

>>106140172
Agreed, steznek is an emotional cry baby, I can't believe people don't know about his other shit stirring dramas, this guy is insane people should just forcefully take DuckStation from his hands. I'm just glad PCSX2 doesn't have to deal with this guy anymore and the devs there are more sensible than him

So how good is DuckStation compared to the other PSX emulators? Is it the most accurate?

>>106140539
he is the only reason pcsx2 is in a decent state. I don't think many people remember how dogshit that emulator was before he joined and made massive improvements to it.

>>106140389
>>106140430
ty, what is the reason that .bin files sometimes come fragmented?

>>106141332
It was indeed dog shit, doesn't mean he isn't a schizo cry baby. He may be a good programmer but he is not right in the head. Blows up in the slightest criticism

>>106141634
just the way it is with psx games when you rip them. The cue file tells the emulator what to do with them.

>>106141634
sometimes the image is split so that each "session" of data is in a different binary file. There will be a main data track in one bin file and the rest are audio tracks usually. The cue sheet will probably tell you what's what.

Just patch the build script or spoof a non arch distro.

Emulators routinely support ips patches for proprietary roms and isos, you should be doing the same for the emulators themselves. And Nintendo doesn't respect the "copyright" of emulators, neither should you.

>>106140372
Correction: everything is undefined behavior in wayland so you need workarounds to make things work properly

>>106141742
>>106141854
Thanks now I'm starting to understand

>>106141879
>Just patch the build script or spoof a non arch distro.
The dev got so pissed at arch xe's nuking duckstation from ENTIRETY of linux

>>106140057

Duckstation dev samefagging for damage control award

>>106139674 (OP)
Honestly he's within his rights to be annoyed that arch kiddies keep asking him for support when forked AUR packages he didn't make turn out to be broken (all because they seethe at the very thought of something other than le cool hackermans pacmans packages but refuse to compile it themselves). Still, the way he is responding to it is retarded. There are ways to filter support requests without sperging out like this.

>>106142457
>do shit for free
>be ok with people using your time and work
>people shit on you because such is the human species
>seethe like a schizophrenic
the guy is legit mentally ill
how can you be so submissive yet demand respect/gratitude?
you surrender all that when you do shit for free like a naked comatose prostitute

>>106140057
truly the darkviperAU of the emulation scene

>>106142718
ive seen a video from this guy before and he seemed normal
whats wrong with him

>>106139674 (OP)
idk the drama but I've always used PCSX and it's nice.

>>106140057
damn nigga

I really want someone to make a fork and dare him to try and sue them lol

>>106144853
I get the feeling he'd bankrupt himself in lawyer fees before he lets some guy violate his super special loicense.

>>106139674 (OP)
Mednafen is better anyways. I don't get how anyone can stand duckstation's UI. It's literally the worst emulator UI.

>>106140259
Retroarch should take it a step further and work on developing and fixing existing free cores
It's certainly happy to distribute nonfree Genesis cores, but BlastEm does not even start right now

>>106146873
They don't have the developers to do that, the entire thing is patched together with duct tape and bubble gum. It's just a front end and it barely holds together.

>>106142825
>darkviperau
he gets easily triggered by random schizos posting misinformation about him and easily falls for the bait.
he's self-aware about it and wants to fix it, but only after he posts 5 walls of text on twitter, 3 reaction videos, a long youtube community post on why he's falling so hard for the bait, and another long youtube community post on why in retrospect that was stupid. Pic unrelated

>>106139840
Didn't the dev have a falling out with them too? I take his side on the Wayland issue but he seems pretty autistic himself, which should actually be surprising to no one.

>>106140057
Incidentally, Schizokek DID end up falling out with the PCSX2 team, throwing a fit and then quitting some time after this was posted. All it takes is for him to miss his meds for a couple of days and he'll burn every bridge he can.

>>106139674 (OP)
>duck station
>nice
Pick one

>>106146909
And yet no one else can make the great CRT-filters that retroarch has. I think other emudevs are just jealous.

>>106147012
Why not take his side now? His point is reasonable. Arch users are whiny and he doesn't want to deal with them any more.

>>106147881
That's literally the exact same meltdown he had over Android users before sabotaging his own app. He's a histrionic faggot who's whinier than Android and Arch users put together. He can eat shit and so can you.

>>106147873
Shaderglass just werks

>>106140107
correct website overage argentinian shartyGOD, you have to stay

so he's angry that arch users went to the aur which has a broken pkgbuild, and as a response he deleted the pkgbuild from his repo? cool story
>>106140057
this shit is unreadable

>>106147873
>the great CRT-filters
That's like someone making the awesome anal glue nobody needs.

>>106141634
with bin/cue, each bin is a raw image of a cd track. typically, the first track will be the data track, that is, an iso9660 filesystem. and the other tracks will be music, literally like an audio cd (and i do mean literally, like you can play them on a cd player)
many early playstation games used audio cd format music, it's very high quality, but takes up a lot of space on the disc

>>106139674 (OP)
>switch to a retarded license
>have a melty when script kiddies ignore it and make their own packages
This is on the developer. It's not hard to just block and ignore annoying users. Get a fucking grip.

>>106150940
He's not wrong tho. Winturds ignore mednafen's existence because cli programs are spooky to them.

>without exception, every community that gets "enriched" with diversity becomes a toxic shithole
really makes you think!

>>106139875
The best thing about duckstation is that it doesn't have a total shit interface. Your replacement is retroarch, the shittiest interface known to the emulation world. I'm not gonna spell it for you, anon.

This is a nothing problem. Download the appimage and even if in the future he decides to abandon linux support, you'll have duckstatioin on your pc forever. Why would you use the AUR when the official appimage self updates is something I don't get but regardless of that this is a nothingburger.

>>106152030
Shouldn't the interface be the least important thing about any emulator? Just setup your controllers and add the game or whatever but like 99% of your time using it would be playing the game in fullscreen. Retroarch seems like a spaghetti mess so I never bothered with it but I used pcsxr back in the day and it was fine.

>>106142484
to be fair if I gave people software, they break it and immediately started complaining about it I'd be schizophrenic too

>>106152320
I'd rather use NESticle
