beetle-pce-libretro Odd behavior with Rastan Saga II

Odd behavior with Rastan Saga II

Open kwyxz opened this issue 7 months ago • 0 comments

Hello maintainers,

I am using the latest commit of mediafen_pce (372184b402852f9b3a3f1663ea676ffa910f6e48) and seeing a rather odd behavior when running Rastan Saga II (No-Intro e998693ab9d694eebe66e5942fd5137e Rastan Saga II (Japan).pce)

The game starts properly, but after skipping through the start screen and the intro text, it attempts to switch the screen geometry multiple times. Here's the log I see on the retroarch command line :

See those multiple "SET_GEOMETRY"? When those happen some visual glitches appear as Retroarch attempts the multiple geometry switches. Afterwards, the game runs fine on a Linux PC.

However, this causes various unexpected behaviors on handheld systems:

on a Ambernic RG35xx SP running muOS (some lightweight Linux variant), Retroarch crashes and the system goes back to the menu
on a Retroid Pocket 2S running Android this causes the whole system to crash hard, forcing a hard reboot

Interestingly enough, no such behavior happens with mednafen_pce_fast on any of the three platforms :
