|
= How do I use Xenia? =
|
|
Refer to the [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart Quickstart page].
|
|
|
|
= What are Xenia's system requirements? =
|
|
Refer to the [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart#system-requirements Quickstart page].
|
|
|
|
== How do I improve performance? ==
|
|
Upgrade your PC or wait for optimizations.
|
|
|
|
== Why do I get an error saying "Your CPU does not support AVX"? ==
|
|
Your CPU doesn't meet the minimum requirements. (see above)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
= How do I fix the VCRUNTIME error? =
|
|
Refer to the [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart Quickstart page].
|
|
|
|
= Why is the audio delayed? =
|
|
Audio is one of the least worked on things in Xenia. There is no fix.
|
|
|
|
= How do I fix "Graphics device lost (probably due to an internal error"? =
|
|
You can't.
|
|
|
|
= Can you add support for Windows Me? How about my Pentium II? =
|
|
Support for older operating systems and processors will not be added unless a
|
|
contributor steps up to build and maintain them. All active contributors are on
|
|
modern systems and busy with higher priority tasks. Whether the emulator runs on
|
|
Windows Vista or not doesn't matter if it can't run games.
|
|
|
|
= Does Xenia run on Linux or macOS? =
|
|
Not natively, but Xenia may run with Wine on Linux ''using Vulkan''.*
|
|
* [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart#minimum D3D12 will only work on Windows 10+ due to vkd3d not being supported.]
|
|
|
|
macOS is not compatible due to requiring MoltenVK/Metal support which isn't implemented in Xenia.
|
|
|
|
= How do I dump games? =

|
|
No, and no.
|
|
|
|
== Why is my game in trial/demo mode? ==
|
|
See [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Options#Run_games_as_fullactivated this option].

|
|
|
|
= Does game ''X'' run? =

|
|
|
|
= Saves =
|
|
== Why aren't saves working? (Storage device not found/full/not detected, etc) ==
|
|
Saves are broken in some games in Xenia, especially ones with user profile saves.
|
|
|
|
As for saves, etc that worked previously in older builds of Xenia, create a text file in the same directory as xenia.exe named <code>portable.txt</code>.
|
|
|
|
== Where are saves stored? ==
|
|
Saves are in <code>Documents\xenia\content</code> by default.
|
|
|
|
If a <code>portable.txt</code> file is in the same directory as xenia.exe the <code>content</code> folder will be in the same directory as xenia.exe.
|
|
|
|
<!--== How do I transfer saves to/from Xenia? ==
|
|
[[How-to-transfer-saves-to-or-from-Xenia]]-->
|
|
|
|
= Input =
|
|
Xenia only supports XInput controllers by default, which includes but is not limited to Xbox 360, and Xbox One controllers.
|
|
|
|
For non-XInput controllers, [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Options#HID_Input SDL] must be used.
|

|
<!--You can use the mouse to control the analog/joysticks, and rebind the keyboard controls '''with [x360ce](https://www.x360ce.com/)'''.-->

= Can Xenia play games online with Xbox Live? =
|
|
Xenia may connect to ''custom'' servers in the far future, but it will '''never''' connect to official Xbox Live servers.

Xenia does not support System Link either.
|
|

|
|
Gameplay means the game reaches gameplay, even if the game is unplayable.
|
|
|
|
= Can Xenia run original Xbox games? =
|
|
Xenia does not support backwards compatibility, and therefore, cannot run original Xbox games.
|
|
|
|
For that there's [https://github.com/Cxbx-Reloaded/Cxbx-Reloaded Cxbx-Reloaded] and [https://github.com/xqemu/xqemu xqemu].
|
|
|
|

|
|
'''No.''' Do not post links or downloads to such resources or you will be banned.
|
|
|
|
= Build tweaks =
|
|
== 4:3 ==
|
|
To play games in 4:3 you need to build Xenia with <code>video_mode->is_widescreen = 0</code> instead of 1 [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/blob/master/src/xenia/kernel/xboxkrnl/xboxkrnl_video.cc#L138 here].
