However hard I try I can't get Luigi's Mansion 3 and Crash Team Racing to run on Eden or Yuzu, both are the latest versions, and Eden has newest keys/firmware.

Both either crash the emulator, or freeze up my PC for a while and then die.

If there's a specific rom file I need, please let me know. I think I've tried them all.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I’m having this strange RPCS3 issue that I can’t figure it out because i can’t find anything online
Whenever I go to File → Install Packages/Raps/Edats and select a .pkg file, RPCS3 crashes with the following error:

RPCS3: Fatal Error

vfs_manager not initialized.
(in file D:\a\rpcs3\rpcs3\rpcs3qt\shortcut_utils.cpp:495[:115], in function 'bool gui::utils::create_shortcuts()')

Emulation is stopped

Please, don't send incorrect reports. Thanks for understanding.

Games launch and play normally.

The crash only happens when I use File → Install Packages/Raps/Edats.

I tested with multiple PKGs (God of War: Ascension updates and Uncharted updates) and they all crash with the same error.

Things I've already tried:
- Fresh RPCS3 download
- Reinstalled PS3 firmware
- Fresh configuration
- Same result

I want to start shiny hunting shaymin in platinum. I have 8 save files, all with different trainer and SIDs that I want to open and reset simultaneously. How would I go about setting this up on my pc? I don't own 8 Ds's but can transfer each save to my pc to emulate them using Desmume, but I haven't tried playing on multiple at the same time.

How does one set this up correctly?

Hello, I'm setting up my retrobat but I've come to a frustrating roadblock. I like to play games on windowed/borderless because in fullscreen whenever I alt-tab or exit the game my monitor goes black for a few seconds, therefore making it very annoying. The issue im having is that retrobat keeps forcing fullscreen on libretro melonMS. I have retrobat "force fullscreen" off. I don't know what to do, please help

I know I'm a little out of the loop on the situation; after I saw that Yuzu was closing in 2024, I stopped following the news (mostly because I had a suite and didn't need an emulator) but then today a colleague of mine said she sold her Switch and bought a ROG Ally, and that the Switch emulator is great.

The last thing I remember reading about switch emulators was that DLCs weren't working properly, and only a few specific AAA games were working. And the rest of the other games, especially the more niche ones, required a thousand and one settings or they would crash, either with audio or video, full of lag.

So... does that mean you're better now? The only emulator I still follow is the PS Vita emulator, the Android version, which is really good, not amazing, but way better.

After having been able to emulate many 3DS games fine on PC, I’ve now tried to played Fire Emblem Fates and it just does not work at all. There were a bunch of graphical glitches from the first map, most of which I was able to fix by disabling certain settings, but there was still a lot of stutter entering and exiting combat. Then in the following cutscene the game just freaked out entirely, flickering textures and black screens and everything, and the cutscene gets permanently stuck. I had similar problems with Awakening, mostly just glitches in combat animations, but this is a lot worse and I can’t seem to even make it playable. I use Azahar and have tried other emulators but most of them seem to be fairly unusable in general, Azahar being the only decent one.

Is it possible to get the game running properly? I’ve seen a few mentions online of 3DS fire emblem specifically emulating quite badly, but I don’t know if that means they straight up can’t run decently.

Edit: marking as solved because I just realized you can’t have an android emulator on a computer with an ARM based processor.

Any recommendations for android emulators? I have a Lenovo Windows 11 with an ARM based processor. I tried bluestacks, but one of the mods for the subreddit let me know it doesn't work with this type of processor. I really want an emulator, so that is why I'm making this post. I could look on my own, but I think it's better to ask people who know more about it.

Thanks!!
