![]() ![]() ![]() Naturally, when you have the specs of the most powerful console on the market, performance for hobbyist emulators years in the making would be the last thing you would expect to worry about! So, it is just that-instead of performance, you have plenty of bugs to deal with. For the most part, 3D retro games ran fairly well, and smashed everything out of the park where performance was concerned. When I first tried out RetroArch on the Series X, I was impressed. YouTube and the rest of the World Wide Web is your friend! Is the Sun Shining Any Brighter Now? Not because emulation is illegal (it is not), but because guides can go out of date quickly and making one goes beyond the scope of this article. Just a heads up, this is not a guide on how to get RetroArch or other software on your Xbox console. And although I do not primarily use my Xbox console for emulation, I did want to come back and see how the small emulation scene on Xbox has grown, and what better way to do that then to load up RetroArch once again, a year later, and see if the hoops to emulate games on my Series X are worth it. Despite bugs and some frustrations, the Series X proved to be a viable option for running hobbyist emulation software through this nifty program. To start with I got Mario 64 Native 4k 55-60 FPS on the Series X this evening.A little over a year ago, I got around to trying RetroArch, a frontend for numerous game emulators, on the Xbox Series X. Ideally people will explore all their favourite games and report back their settings and performance they are getting (and on which console). I'll update this post as and when we get more information. This will then open up 'Suggested Cores' scroll down until you find 'Sony - PlayStation 2 (PCSX2)' click that and your game should start. Now open the Retrospection app, go to 'Load Content', 'Downloads', 'PS2 Games' and then click whatever game you want to play and then the top option that says '.bin.' at the end. This is where you will need to drag your games to, so Retrospection/LocalState/Downloads/PS2 Games.Īfter that's all done and make sure everything has finished sending over to the Xbox (you should see a bar at the bottom showing current progress) you can go onto the xbox and click stop on the FTP app and quit the app. i literally just called it 'PS2 Games' but name it whatever you want. On the right hand side again we wanna go Retrospection/LocalState/Downloads and you need to make a folder for your PS2 games, right click on downloads folder and 'Create Directory'. This is where you will want to drag the PS2 Bios you downloaded earlier (find the PS2 Bios folder where ever you saved it using the left box and then drag to right into the system folder) congrats you have done the system bios part. Double click again and look for 'System'. Double click and then go to 'LocalState'. On the right hand side in the top box under 'Remote Site' the second folder should be the one you want as it will say Retrospection. You should now be connected to your Xbox.įrom here on the left of your screen will be local files on your pc and the right will be files on the Xbox. Don't worry about the username or password part leave those blank and then for port enter 21 then click 'QuickConnect'. At the top of FileZilla you will see 'Host:' and you will need to put the IP address of your Xbox that shows on the FTP app. When you open it click 'Set Local Folder' then go down and click start. Once everything is downloaded, open the FTP app on your Xbox. (follow this step any time you download any other system bios or any games) ![]() Open 7-zip and find your PS2 Bios you downloaded and right click, click 7-Zip and then 'Extract to' and follow the same step for whatever game you have downloaded. Ok now last thing to download is FileZilla. You will also need to download whatever roms you want to play (and legally own).Īlso you will need a program to unzip the folders, i used 7-Zip. Now on your pc download you will need to download the PS2 Bios. Once you are there update core info files and update assets, when that's done close the retrospection app. Open retrospection and go to 'Online Updater'. So firstly assuming you have the retail version of retroarch (retrospection app) and the FTP app. ![]()
