Emulation Hacks Issue

[Ultrahead]

Both, the Main CPU Overclock % and Sound CPU Overclock % in the Emulation Hack menu in the Core Options always start applied at 100% no matter what value is set every time you run the game again. The first time, they get set and saved. So the next time you play the game, you see them there, but the default ones are running.

Say, CPU is at 200% and sound at 125%, the values appear in the settings when you play the game again but none of them get applied to the game, and instead the default values are. The workaround is to change them again every time you play, say from 200% to 201% and from 125% to 124% and then the correct values are applied. And so on so forth on every session.

Works just fine here with the first and second game I tried with, as in the internal sliders menu reflects the same values after restart. Please be more specific.

The menus do reflect the correct values after restart. But the speed of the game is the same as if CPU and Sound were set to 100% (default).

So you will have to change whatever value you set to something slightly different (say +1 or -1) for that to take effect.

Libretro build. Linux ARM64-based distro. TBBlue emulation.

Well if the MAME internal menu does not reflect reality, then there is not much to be done here..

I also tried by setting the value so low that there is a clear change in Virtua Racing, and it stuck after restart just as the menu values say.

It does not work specifically with emulation for the ZX Speccy Next. Tried the new update and still does not work. For some reason, games do not run at 100% speed or whatever cpu value is used in the hack. Only after, changing them after the game starts, the value is taken into account. Weird.

Still happening in v288 for the Next, when you change the cpu speed say from 100% to 105%, and for example audio is set at 100%, it gives all the power to audio, and the CPU seems to run at 20% at most.
