I got a binary compiled for linux using make docker-linux, but can not get it to work. Retroarch does not recognize the .so file as a core. I am using ubuntu 26.04.
It seems the above crash on my end only happens if Retroarch video output is set to Vulkan. If I switch to Opengl or direct3d11 both software renderer and Vulkan in Goosestation video options do load shaders without an issue
I was mainly interested in software renderer combined with shaders, as I can use the original Duckstation that has much better performance for upscaled 3d renders in 4k
Interesting! Do you know how real psx shows it, with or without banding? This kinda looks like one of the first hardware revisions limitations, when similar effect was in tomb rider etc. I think duckstation actually has the setting for emulating it. Maybe this setting got stucknor something. I’ll take a look once I reach my pc
Actually docker is the least painful way to build it… all other methods are even more work
Make sure you have core info properly recognized, and delete the cache file from core info folder
Also you need -f Dockerfile.windows argument to point to proper file
I believe that’s the difference between 32-bit color and 15-bit (minus the normal dithering that the console used to cover up some of that atrocious banding).
I was able to replicate this by toggling this thing:
This emulates earlier models.
Without this setting, the colors are smooth
The game looks cool btw. Is this one of those hidden gems?
Awesome reports DemitryCzarevich!

Moved the Folder to Goosestation one but still got an Error:

Yep, that’s it! I’m not sure how this option ended up enabled — maybe it was the default setting, or maybe it was left over from previous experiments with core versions 0.1 and 0.2 — but without it, the lighting gradients disappeared! All that’s left is to sort out the shader support for Vulkan rendering, and then we can start using Goosestation everywhere.
UPDATE: By the way, the lighting gradients are gone on OpenGL too, and the shaders work on OpenGL — awesome!
This time, you’re having an issue with the Docker service not starting

It seems to me that you’re running Docker commands from the Git console, right?
I did it by launching Docker directly from a shortcut on my desktop (Docker Desktop). At the bottom right, I had an arrow labeled “Terminal” (this is a new feature that appeared in version 4.32); from there, the console launched directly within the Docker window (in Windows, it was PowerShell), and I entered all commands right in that console.
I didn’t use the Git console; it’s essentially needed to run the “git” commands for cloning project repositories. I did everything directly in the open Docker Desktop window.
