Retroarch IOS problem

RetroArch Apple devices
#1

Hi, thanks for a great product. I`m having a problem running PCSX rearmed on my ipad 3. I try and run the image and I crashes back to the springboard. The log file says: Starting PCSX-ReARMed 0 Running PCSX Version 1.9 (Jun 28 2013). psxMap: warning: wanted to map @80000000, got 0x921e000 Init new dynarec testing if we can run recompiled code…

I noticed someone else with the same problem but was running a tethered jailbreak. Mine is untethered and have had no other problems with the jailbreak. Im using the same BIOS and image that I have got working on my Galaxy S2 without any issue. Can you give me any idea on what Im doing wrong.

Cheers

I think it’s a problem with the dynarec needing to do some pre-initialization work before the game begins and that this blocks the UI thread for too long. If the UI thread gets blocked for too long, then the program will auto-shutdown.

Perhaps meancoot should look into this issue - I know we had at least a few instances of this before when me and notaz were porting PCSX ReARMed to iOS.

Also, it’s likely for the same reason that if you have ‘TV Mode’ on - if you try to load a game with PCSX ReARMed at initial startup then it will just shutdown as well.

Thanks for the quick response. Im glad I wasnt doing anything stupid. I can test anything out to see if it fixes the issue, just let me know if I can help. Great name btw I’ve got most of his work on vinyl, one of the most diverse producers ever!

Just to let you know, I`m on IOS 5.1.1 if that helps. Didnt update when 6 first came out as I didnt want to lose the jailbreak, too late now.
