Black screen with MupenPlusNext GLES3 on GlideN64 RDP

Open VinceBT opened this issue 6 months ago • 3 comments

I cannot manage to load any game with GlideN64 enabled.

RetroArch version: 1.21.0 Mupen core version: 2.8-Vulkan 7c7f110 Device: Samsung S25 Ultra I know that I am trying to launch a romhack but it fails with any other roms as well I tried to force Vulkan and also tried to force gl I tried Parallel RDP but I have 1 fps I tried Angrylion and it works but the render is awful Here are the logs of me launching the rom, waiting a few seconds then closing it

Using old --libretro behavior. Setting libretro_directory to "/data/user/0/com.retroarch/cores/" instead.

Many Samsung S25 Ultra users on reddit are reporting black screens in Retroarch beyond the Mupen64Plus-Next GLES2/3 cores. In general vulkan video driver is required to avoid black screens on other cores such as PPSSPP.

Even with vulkan though N64 cores though either display a black screen while the game runs in the background (you can hear the audio and menu cursor sounds but no video) or outright crash where they did not used to on older hardware.

I have both a Samsung S25 Ultra ( Snapdragon 8 Elite / Adreno 830) and a Samsung Note 20 Ultra (Snapdragon 865+ / Adreno 650) using identical Retroarch versions and configurations. The Note 20 can successfully render using gl + Mupen64Plus-Next GLES3 and GLideN64 and is essentially a "control device", if I copy exact working configuration from the Note 20 to the S25 I get the black screen on the S25.

As with the other user above I have tried just about every combination of video driver (gl or vulkan) with Mupen64Plus-Next GLES2, Mupen64Plus-Next GLES2, ParaLLEl and RSP / RDP Plugin. The only working combination is vulkan driver + Mupen64Plus-Next GLES3 + Angrylion which comes with obvious drawbacks such as inability to upscale and use hi res texture packs.

I believe the issue with this extends beyond this core and possibly beyond Retroarch and may be related to changes or new requirements of the Snapdragon 8 Elite / Adreno 830 or its use of OpenGL. Other emulators on Android are also showing compatibility regressions and glitches that are not present on older devices such as the Note 20 Ultra. Dolphin using OpenGL for example now has text display issues in Mario Kart Wii on the S25 where it did not the Note 20 Ultra.

I will also post additional logs from both my Note 20 Ultra and S25 Ultra tomorrow if it helps with the investigation.

This is possibly a duplicate of or related to this issue:

Yeah not a duplicate but related. When switching to Vulkan, I can get some of the other cores fixed, like gpSP, but Mupen blackscreens even with Vulkan forced. Only Angrylion works but the rendering sucks.

Some shader issues gonna get a fix out soon

m4xw avatar Jun 30 '25 12:06 m4xw

Is the issue still persisting? might need the 2nd fix i didnt push yet then

m4xw avatar Jul 29 '25 11:07 m4xw

@m4xw, did you push a fix in a nightly?

If so I can test it today.

How can I test it ?

VinceBT avatar Jul 29 '25 17:07 VinceBT

Hi @m4xw

I dowloaded the 7-30-2025 Nightly and tested. Unfortunately, still getting the black screen when using Mupen GLES2, Mupen GLES3 and paraLLEl.

Here is a log from my GLES2 test:

retroarch__2025_07_29__23_22_21.log

A few lines stand out:

....

The MSAA option is now missing in core options and seems to be called out too:

[Environ] GET_VARIABLE: mupen64plus-MultiSampling - Invalid value. [Environ] GET_VARIABLE: mupen64plus-EnableN64DepthCompare - Invalid value. [Environ] GET_VARIABLE: mupen64plus-EnableShadersStorage - Invalid value.

...

Then is starts acknowledging gl is in use:

[Video] Using HW render, OpenGL driver forced. [Video] Using configured "gl" driver for GL HW render. [Android] EGL: GLES version = 2. [EGL] Falling back to eglGetDisplay. [EGL] EGL version: 1.5. [GL] Found GL context: "egl_android". [GL] Detecting screen resolution: 0x0.

Then this:

[EGL] eglSwapInterval(2) failed. [EGL] #0x300c, EGL_BAD_PARAMETER

The struggle seems to all revolve around OpenGL functionality.

Also other cores like mGBA are still blackscreening with the gl core but work properly on vulkan.

Hi @m4xw and @VinceBT,

A user on reddit found a workaround for this. In the Android OS Settings you need to Enable "Developer Options"

Once you do that go into Developers Options under OS Settings.

There is an On / Off option at the very top, flip to Off then back to On.

Scroll down and there is an option called "Experimental: Enable ANGLE"

Turn it on, it will restart your phone. After that the gl core now works in Retroarch for all cores and Mupen with GLideN64 now works with no Black Screening!

While this does work for Retroarch N64 cores, it does cause regressions in other applications, some non-Retroarch emulators on Android and my RCS Text Messaging stopped working until I turned off "Experimental: Enable ANGLE" so it is not a full solution but should give a lot of hints on where the issue lies.

Just thinking out loud here.

The challenge with the S25 / Snapdragon 8 Elite and potentially future Qualcomm SoC's is that they simply aren't compatible with the current Mupen cores but older devices have no issues.

Perhaps instead of "fixing" the current cores which might break compatibility on older devices, maybe a better approach would be a bespoke Mupen Core and paraLLEl core for Snapdragon 8 Elite and higher.

JamesSDK avatar Aug 16 '25 16:08 JamesSDK

actually pushed a fix for gles2 that was giving me issues on some devices, maybe try it once its on the bot

m4xw avatar Aug 20 '25 14:08 m4xw

Thanks @m4xw I will give it a shot once it flows into the nightly builds.

Is the the change you made exclusive to the Mupen GLES2 core or does it help with the general gl driver issues affecting all cores on Snapdragon 8 Elite chips sets?

JamesSDK avatar Aug 20 '25 21:08 JamesSDK

I tried both updated GLES2 and GLES3 and got no changes, still black screen

VinceBT avatar Aug 22 '25 01:08 VinceBT

thats concerning

m4xw avatar Aug 25 '25 09:08 m4xw

Hi @m4xw,

I also tried GLES2 using the 8-26-2025 Nightly.

No change, black screen but audio and controls work.

I don't think this is an issue with Mupen GLES2 or 3.

The black screen happens whenever to any core uses the gl driver.

Again, you can make this work but turning on the Experimental ANGLE option the Android Developer options and it will fix and core that uses gl core and prevent the black screening.

JamesSDK avatar Aug 26 '25 04:08 JamesSDK

Same black screen problem on a Galaxy S25+ using Retroarch 1.21 stable or nightly, and from F-Droid. I tried enabling ANGLE drivers in developer options to test as a workaround, but it is greyed out on my device. Turning dev options off and back on does not enable it.

I tested several .z64 roms in standalone M64PLus FZ, as well as Daijisho, ClassicBoy Pro and Lemuroid (libretro) downloaded from Google Play store. The games work in every other emulator on the S25+, even those using libretro cores. The games also work on Retroach 1.21 on my Galaxy S23. Thankfully there are alternatives to Retroarch. Unfortunately, they don't integrate as well with frontends (Beacon, ES-DE, etc).
