Revision as of 00:02, 16 September 2020

This page contains standalone emulator options for systems that will run on the RP2.

For the preinstalled emulators on the RP2, it is not recommended to update the apps, as the Retroid developers seem to have chosen these builds because they run well on the device.

(*): The Taki discord (under #retroid_pocket) has pinned .cfg files for DC controller, Mupen64 Plus FX controller + emulation (game settings) and preconfigured DraStic settings with instructions.

Dreamcast Configuration Tips

Configuration for Dreamcast is done through reicast, and then ROMs played in flycast as it has better performance. Download flycast here and open the APK using File Explorer. The latest 6 MB versions are noted to perform better than the 11 MB builds.

Open reicast and click on the DC bios and format memory card 1. For controller settings, set the ports of all to none, and the port for Android Playstation to A. Click Map, and map the buttons to their appropriate locations - you may not need to map all buttons. Click Done, then Done again. You may now close reicast.

Launch flycast, which shares a config with reicast, and load and play your game.

If there are issues with the controller, you may need to modify the .cfg file in flycast. To do this, go into the directory path for flycast and find the folder named mappings. Inside, there should be a file names Android_Playstation3.cfg. Open the file, scroll to the bottom, and erase the line for deadzone value. This should not be needed if reicast 20.02b or newer is installed, or if you have used the .cfg file from the Taki Discord.
