Re: I Miss That C Button

The 8bitdo M30 2.4G for Genesis Mini is a great wireless option for MiSTer, as well. I use it not just for Sega games but also a lot of arcade cores. Perfect layout CPS1 and CPS2, since I prefer D-pads to arcade sticks. The L and R buttons are discrete from the Z and C buttons, so once the Saturn core becomes stable I think it'll be the controller ...

Re: About the temperatures of this new PSX core

I'm interested to know your results. This is a fpga thing a lot of people don't cover or seem to care about - that fpga uses a LOT less power than emulation, so it's more environmentally friendly. Every little helps. "emulation" has a lot of definitions, and at least one of those definitions being those retro handhelds that can do PS1 em...

Re: Where to get the new shadow mask filter?

Yeah, I went down that rabbit hole with the SoG switch, too. https://twitter.com/TVsBen/status/1464720195000455170 6-bit color on a bunch of old games is not really a deterrent. I don't think I'd be able to tell the difference. Dual HDMI out via splitter is my next stop; I've kind of given up on this IO board being anything more than a fan mount. LOL

Re: Where to get the new shadow mask filter?

You can always feed your Mister into the Retrotink, even using the analog out... I'm struggling with that, too, because I'd love to do that and then build an arcade cabinet next to the TV and use HDMI there. https://twitter.com/TVsBen/status/1464713570495746056 The response I got was to just use an HDMI splitter. https://twitter.com/iequalshane/st...

Re: Where to get the new shadow mask filter?

Ah, yeah, so none of the scanline + mask options actually retain the gaps between the lines on MiSTer? I have a 5X Pro and I've been using the Shadow Mask with composite. Here's an example of what I'm trying to replicate: https://twitter.com/TVsBen/status/1464455063712186368 https://twitter.com/TVsBen/status/1450589177079345157 That's a photo of my...

Re: Where to get the new shadow mask filter?

Downloaded the update tonight and I'm not convinced I'm using it right. I've been using the Scanlines (Bright Soft) scanline filter for a very long time. Tonight I've been letting SF2 on the Genesis run the demos and applying different masks. I'm not really finding what I'm looking for, I guess, because the lines between each scan line are gone. Co...

Re: The MSTR Case

I'm very, very excited for this. I'd much rather have something a little bigger with ports on front/back than have the tiniest case ever with ports on all sides. Even in the MiSTer Addons PCB case (which is very nice for what it is) the thing looks hokey as all get-out. I just found out about this today and will follow with great interest.

I suggest to start from Sapphire. Exploding the $2000 CD is awesome.
This is also a strong argument in favor of just using Redump images and not trying to make your own. I have no desire to get Rondo of Blood out of the case, I know that.
