[nightly build] 2014-06-12

Hey everyone, There’s been a lot of great work by the devs on the input mapping for android lately and things are much better than they used to be at this point (with a few bugs here and there). I’ve built an .apk from the latest sources. Feel free to grab it from here: https://github.com/l3iggs/RetroArch/rel … .2-rl3iggs

Playing on a game pad with rewind and turbo mapped properly is glorious. Know that this is not a release, it’s just me building whatever was fresh in https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch as of this writing.

Issues you encounter with RetroArch in this build can be noted in this thread, but should also be reported using this link: https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/new

I’ve also updated the build instructions on the wiki so that they actually work now: https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/wiki/Android-compilation-guide-(from-linux) Build away!

twinaphex and Themaister both deserve huge thank yous for their work! They are the ones writing the code out of the goodness of their hearts.

Thanks for sharing your build :slight_smile:

Yes, we’ve started the grand refactor of input joypad drivers (which were in a sad state on consoles and mobile before). Adding and maintaining input autoconfigs is far, far cleaner now.

thx for share you builds!

I test the apk on a Snapdragon800 cellphone and a GPD G58 android handheld(Soc RK3188t Cortex A9 Quad-core with Mali-400MP4) ,Unfortunately,there are both no response after I load PCE/PCFX/MD games… Could you fix it?

Actually it is just same problem with lordashram‘s test build after 2014-05-15 build…Is that someting wrong in the android Retroarch?

I was able to repeat your issue with the Mednafen PCE Fast core and a tg-16 rom. After looking at the logs, at first the crash seemed to be due due a failure to unzio the rom, so I unzipped it manually. After trying to load it that way it seemed that the core was trying to use a vb (Virtual Boy) module. Which makes no sense to me. Anyway, I suggest you report your issue here: https://github.com/libretro/mednafen-libretro/issues

Thank you! I‘ll report it!
