[iOS Jailbroken] — RetroArch 1.8.1 and other emulators (Cydia & Sileo)

Oh, that’s because I just added support for AppleTV… I’m confused why Sileo makes my life so much harder… I had to find many solutions already just for Sileo, and now that… :smile:


Edit: I just filed a bug report for Sileo here: https://bugs.getsileo.app/browse/SILEO-154

Hopefully, it will get fixed soon! (It’s indeed a Sileo bug, out of so many BTW…) :persevere:

Hello! First of all, thank you very much for making all of this. Very kind of you. I‘ve been using your repo since I found it with very great pleasure, it always works fine. However, I think your website is down now. Do you plan on continue using it? If not, could you please upload the last build with the signed cores of retroarch? I lost it while I had to restore rootfs, because the „essential upgrades“ broke my Cydia. Much obliged

Hi @Weedy_Weed_Smoker, Just see Dolphin IOS on your repo, as I know still not have any Emulator for Wii, or Gamecube ready on ios now, so how this work? Did you test this? Which version ios compatible?

@ryuuji I’m still trying to test this, but I’ll remove it from the repo if I can’t get it to work… (No success yet! :slightly_frowning_face: )

@ryuuji @zzz0083 Success!

Standalone Dolphin works for iOS 12+ jailbroken, with MFI, PS4 and Xbox One sticks, and touchscreen support… (Still very early beta support for iOS, though…)

I had to make a separate version for Wii and GameCube because settings are not implemented yet (they will crash the app) and there are 2 controller configurations, one for each console (with touchscreen, MFI, PS4 and Xbox One sticks control too!)…

This version can’t escape the sandbox (yet?)…

Instructions

Put the “Config” folder from /Applications/Dolphin.app/Sys/ into /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/(Dolphin’s folder)/Documents/

Put your games in /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/(Dolphin’s folder)/Documents/Software/

This is a really early iOS support version but it already shows the great potential of this emu on iOS!

Oh!!! You are the best! After I update in the afternoon

Now the problem is:

A:Controller not work (PS4 Controller and touch) (Maybe it is the “Config” folder Configuration error…I think):grin:

B:The roms path should be in /var/mobile/Documents/Software/(This question has been bothering me for a long time):joy:

The wii emulator it works very well…You’ve done it!

Thank you for your work You fills Apple IOS devices wii&Ngc emulator a gap!

ps: The Config path should be in /var/mobile/Documents/

The folder is a bit messy:困:

@zzz0083 Ps4 and Xbox One controller support is iOS 13+ only…

Controller works only with the config file in the correct location!

It is hoped that PS4 controllers supporting MFI and ios12 will be available in the future

I miss Android’s dolphins:喜悦:

@zzz0083 on iOS 12 you can use PS4 controllers with “ncontrol” tweak!

Yes, but it doesn’t work on dolphins…Retroarch can use

Amazing! Really appreciate ur hard work and thank you so much. I justed test dolphinWii only and work perfect with FE game, but 1 thing, can’t access setting menu in Main menu, crash when touch it (IOS 12.1.2 - chimera JB). I hope that the next version will soon release to fix it.

@ryuuji Ok! I just uploaded the newest official version, modified with MFI/PS4/XboxONE controller support!

Please try it, but I’m afraid controller support is iOS 13 only at this point… Please try it and tell me the results!

@FlashyLatin Please reply here, to avoid necro"ing an old thread… :smile:

BTW, you will need to remove OatmealDome’s repo for my version to appear!

I just tried, it’s still a no go. The on-screen controller disappeared when I turned on the Mifi control, but I don’t get any response from it. The previous version seems more stable, with this one if I exit it and come back to it, it goes to a white screen and I have to re-jailbreak my device for it to work. On your DolphinIOS-GC and DolphinIOS-Wii that doesn’t happen. Thought I’d let you know all the kinks I’ve noticed.

Sorry just saw this post.

@FlashyLatin Ok, that may be the reason they say Chimera is not supported for now…

I’ll post newer versions as they come, but I have not much control over it!


BTW if you want to switch to Unc0ver, just screenshot all your sources and installed tweaks/apps in Sileo, restore rootfs with Chimera, jailbreak with Unc0ver, and reinstall everything from Cydia!

Restore rootfs will not touch your Documents folder as far as I can see…

@Weedy_Weed_Smoker

Sounds good, I can look into it this weekend and get everything saved. Do the Nimbus controls work on the DolphinGC/DolphinIOS with IOS 12.0.1 on UnCover? I don’t want to change jailbreaks if I’m going to be back to where I’m at with Chimera. I know someone mentioned that the Xbox and PS4 controls didn’t work if you were using Ncontrol.
