Description

Running WHDLoad games with PUAE 4.5 in Retroarch, on Xbox Series S.

I have tried launching a variety of games, but nothing loads. It just stays at kickstart with a repeating glitching sound. Just launching the core without any game show the very same screen and the same glitching sound.

All settings are default and all kickstarts match md5 requirements. Kickstarts are present, but there is an (!) in front of every kickstart. The md5 is displayed under the kickstarts, even if there is a 100% match. I think this is the issue but I have failed to found a solution to it.

Research direction

Reproduce the failure on an Xbox Series S with PUAE 4.5 in RetroArch, using default settings and the reported kickstarts. Compare launching the core alone with launching WHDLoad games, and verify the displayed kickstart MD5 values. Done means determining whether the kickstart mismatch causes the failure or documenting the additional information needed to diagnose it.
