snes9x (Super Nintendo Entertainment System emulator)
|
|
|
|
Snes9x is a portable, freeware Super Nintendo Entertainment System
|
|
(SNES) emulator. It basically allows you to play most games designed
|
|
for the SNES and Super Famicom Nintendo game systems on your PC or
|
|
Workstation. The games include some real gems that were only ever
|
|
released in Japan.
|
|
|
|
When you first run snes9x:
|
|
|
|
- The first thing you'll want to do is configure the controls. By
|
|
default there are *no* controls set up; you'll be unable to play any
|
|
games! The config is under Options -> Preferences, in the Joypads
|
|
tab. You can configure either keyboard or joystick/gamepad controls,
|
|
but not both.
|
|
|
|
- If the game audio is choppy or distorted, try setting the
|
|
sound driver to Pulse or ALSA (Options -> Preferences -> Sound
|
|
tab). Specifically, avoid SDL audio (unfortunately it's the default
|
|
if PULSE=no).
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
- This is not the latest release of snes9x. Version 1.60 crashes under
|
|
pre-15.0 Slackware-current, so version 1.59 is packaged here. This
|
|
will be revisited sometime after Slackware 15.0 is released.
|
|
|
|
- The package can optionally include the snes9x libretro core, for use
|
|
with RetroArch. By default, the core will be built if RetroArch is
|
|
installed. You can set RETROARCH=yes to force the core to be built,
|
|
or RETROARCH=no to forcibly disable the core. Note that RetroArch
|
|
doesn't have to be installed to build the libretro core, but it's
|
|
useless without RetroArch installed.
|
|
|
|
- Starting with 1.57, OSS audio is disabled by default. Most users
|
|
won't be affected, since pulseaudio is now the default audio system on
|
|
Slackware, and ALSA is the fallback option. If you *need* OSS support,
|
|
set OSS=yes in the script's environment. You may also disable
|
|
PulseAudio by setting PULSE=no in the environment.
