[Vita/Retroarch] Loading a new DOS game without deleting the config file crashes the Retroarch
First of all this is a perfect core and I am very happy to have it for Vita.
Issue is, if I try to load a new game after exiting core, it crashes the Retroarch. If I delete the core cfg file, content is loaded fine again.
Would you please upload your DOSBox_pure.opt in data/retroarch/config/DOSBox_pure/ ?
There is something wrong when entering DOSBOX PURE START MENU in dynamic CPU mode, you need something like auto mode. Thus, if you have some performance demanding real mode games, just switch to dynamic CPU mode in the game, and back to auto CPU mode before exiting or restarting for now.
I am also waiting for a bugfix.
This is exactly what I have observed for the issue.
If I have left the CPU Core as Dynamic, it works perfectly during game play, but after closing the content and trying to load a new one, it crashes Retroarch. Going back to Auto for CPU Core in settings and closing the content afterwards, everything is fine.
So, this is the issue (core should not be crashing the retroarch even dynarec is selected and closed as is) that should be fixed.
Sorry for the late response but I don't have means to test the Vita build myself. Is this still an issue nowadays? The startup procedure of the core has been greatly reworked since this issue was created, so maybe it is not relevant anymore.
Closing under the assumption that this has either been fixed or is not applicable anymore.
