That’s great! can you share please your .so file? thanks

It’s really easy to build yourself. Just do:

export CFLAGS=”-mcpu=cortex-a7 -mfpu=neon-vfpv4″
git clone https://github.com/libretro/snes9x-next.git
cd snes9x-next
make -f Makefile.libretro platform=”armv neon hardfloat” -j4

You do this on the RPi itself then?

Is it the same command for all emulators you want to compile just changing out the url for github?

So if i wanted to add FCEUMM emulator i would use the command…

export CFLAGS=”-mcpu=cortex-a7 -mfpu=neon-vfpv4″
git clone https://github.com/libretro/libretro-fceumm.git
cd FCEUMM
make -f Makefile.libretro platform=”armv neon hardfloat” -j4

would that work?

Yes, on the pi itself.

The fceumm core is already installed by default (it’s the default nes emulator too if I recall) though nestopia seems to be a bit better IMO.

The above may or may not work for other cores depending on the Makefile of the core you’re trying to bulid. It should be pretty similar though. Some cores don’t build with the “-j4” option, some use a Makefile instead of Makefile.libretro, for example.
