Ok, so I figured out how to make mame work in Bizhawk, yeah , cothreads were a pain in the ass , but now is solved in my svn repository. When I find the instructions to upload my version to your repository you will have Mame working...ha ha ha

You guys have a bug in your libretro implementation... In the video_refresh callback you don't perform correctly the matrix transformations for the bitmap when dealing with vertical games, in fact, any vertical game tested appears like garbage . Tested with fba the games (donkey kong , gyrodine...) look ok with the same core in Retroarch but with Bizhawk they look bad. Tip: the width and height in that case are being used wrong. Maybe you need to take a peak to Retroarch and see the libretro instructions to learn how to do it? ... Fyi: I have solved the problem in my svn version and now every game looks perfect!

Hi guys! I just have downloaded an svn update of the BizHawk 1.11.6 and compiling in Visual Studio works ok when selecting x86 , but when trying to compile in x64 compiling triggers an exception in library slimDX. Any idea? Thanks a lot!

OK I found the issue, copying all the dlls from the directory dll into the root of the Bizhawk installation did the trick.Surely I forgot to read that part of the installation instructions. I let this explanation here for any other poor guy experiencing the same problems...

The crashings continues, any libretro core I open with load advanced EmuHawk crashes...This only happens with the libretro cores, with the Bizhawk emulators the roms are loading and executing ok. Btw, I don't know if this has to do with my system being win 7 64 bits. :(

Thanks ZeroMus! I know that link , that is what I was refering in my message when I said "as specified in the section Bizhawk / Libretro " ... Is there something I'm missing ? Is really working the load advanced option of Libretro with the last version of Bizhawk? Also one strange thing is that in the link says 'put the libretro core in the directory bizhawk/libretro/cores' but with the latest release of bizhawk binaries there is not a directory with that name! Thanks a lot!

Hi Everybody! I'm new to this fantastic emulator but I was trying to load a Libretro core as specified in the section Bizhawk / Libretro with the option load advanced and when trying select the dll fba arcade (32 bits) from the cores directory of Retroarch, BizHawk crashes . I put all the redist dlls in the BizHawk directory also so I don't know what I'm doing wrong... My system is win 7 64 bits with all the prerequisites installed. Any idea? Thanks a lot!
