Unofficial RetroArch (0.9.7) Standalone Emulators

STLcardsWS has released a nice collection of Standalone RetroArch Emulators. He used the official RetroArch 0.9.7 Release (except the Imame4all core) and also added Blackotoo's PS3 emulator uniform pack, which looks really nice on the XMB (see the video below).

Unofficial RetroArch (0.9.7) Standalone Emulators - PS3 Homebrew - YouTube

I decided to make the libretro cores of RetroArch into "standalone emulators". Many people has expressed a desire for the multi-system emulator to have the cores split up. Some of you may have done this already, it is a easy process with the design of RetroArch & the great tools this scene has provided. All the Standalone's are from the official 0.9.7 Release of RetroArch (except the Imame4all core). I used Blackotoo PS3 emulator uniform pack for most of the Images & Sounds. Below you will find some issues that occur when making these as standalone emulators. Each libretro core is a Standalone system (which is basically "eye candy" on the XMB for the cores that have multiple systems)


Important Notes:
  • These Standalone Emulators are not multiMAN/mmCM Compatible. (Booting Roms from multiMAN will not work (official 0.9.7 does), Return to multiMAN does work)
  • These are Unofficial PKGs (However each core is from the official 0.9.7 release except IMAMe4all)
  • IMAME4all: This libretro core was made by the RetroArch developers but it was never officially released for the PS3 as they have plans for a better MAME port in the future. So any issue that arise from this core will not be fixed or attended to as it was scrapped for the PS3)
    • MAME 0.37b5 Romset is required
    • Saving/Loading is broken and will not be fixed
    • Some Games on the 0.37b5 romset will not work (part of the reason why this older port was scrapped for the PS3)
