it seems buildbot is on early holiday, here are temporary links for retroarch nightly releases for 64bit windows and missing DLL files. files are hosted in Mega.nz

download and extract files to your existing retroarch folder. if you never have installed retroarch before, then download full version (the one thats 87mb+) from official buildbot nightly site and download Redist-x86_64 above to fix missing dlls.

Merry Christmas to all…

buildbot seems to be fixed now. so this thread is not needed anymore.

Thanks for supplying those in the meantime, wertz :slight_smile:

Hmm, nightlies from 24 to 28 of december still miss dlls. I had to revert to the nightly from 16th of december to have Retroarch work again on WIndows.

#5

you right, 27th and 28th nightlies are 32Bytes only the full package is only 80MB so it does not include the new DLL files, even the supplied redist.zip is only 32Bytes.

just download that full nightly release(to get latest version) and use the Redist-x86_64 from above to replace missing dll files.

Thanks, it worked !

Edit : But now RA crashes everytime I enter the menu from any core.

not sure about that why. im using the same DLL’s on mine with compiled version of latest retroarch . are you using x64 of RA?

UPDATE:

wait, these DLL’s seems not to be working anymore… i will update try post update

#8

Yes I’m using the 64 bits version ; maybe it has to do with cg shaders, since it is not possible to update them from the menu in the latest nightly.

Edit : yes, it has to do with cg shaders ; Retroarch can’t find them at all.

(these are *.exe only for x86_64, download full Retroarch 1st if you never installed one yet and update DLL using Redist link from post #1)[/B][/B]

#12

Is it compiled with cg shader support ?

#13

these are only compiled exe files and dll. the full version from buildbot should have all the necessary files retroarch needs aside from the missing DLL’s.
