Vice 3.0 LIBRETRO WIP

Very WIP port of VICE 3.0 for libretro .

minimal Libretro arch port (minimal nuklear GUI)

Use it at you own risk !

Supported platforms : Linux Win64 Android emscripten

Source base: https://sourceforge.net/p/vice-emu/code/32520/tree/tags/v3.0/

M3U Support and Disk control

When you have a multi disk game, you can use a m3u file to specify each disk of the game and change them from the RetroArch Disk control interface.

A M3U file is a simple text file with one disk per line (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M3U).

Example :

Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems).m3u

Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems)(Disk 1 of 3 Side A)(Game).d64
Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems)(Disk 1 of 3 Side B)(Surface).d64
Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems)(Disk 2 of 3 Side A)(Dungeon).d64
Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems)(Disk 2 of 3 Side B)(Populace A).d64
Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems)(Disk 3 of 3 Side A)(Populace A).d64
Ultima VI - The False Prophet (1990)(Origin Systems)(Disk 3 of 3 Side B)(Populace A).d64

Path can be absolute or relative to the location of the M3U file.

When a game ask for it, you can change the current disk in the RetroArch 'Disk Control' menu :

• Eject the current disk with 'Disk Cycle Tray Status'.
• Select the right disk index.
• Insert the new disk with 'Disk Cycle Tray Status'.

Note : zip support is provided by RetroArch and is done before passing the game to the core. So, when using a m3u file, the specified disk image must be uncompressed (.d64 file formats).

Build instructions

LIBDIR set to retro_system_dir

Add WANT_RGB565=1 to make for RGB565 16 bits depth (32 bits depth default)

Setup core

Copy the data folder to LIBDIR .

Linux

CC=gcc make -f Makefile.libretro -j10

Win64 (crossbuild)

make -f Makefile.libretro platform=wincross64 -j4

Android standalone toolchain Build

export path to your standalone toolchain like

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/standtc/bin

make -f Makefile.libretro platform=androidstc -j4

Android ndk Build

export path to ANDROID_NDK_ARM and ANDROID_NDK_ROOT like

export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=/opt/ndk
export ANDROID_NDK_ARM=/opt/ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/prebuilt/linux-x86_64

make -f Makefile.libretro -j10 WANT_RGB565=1 platform=android
