MiSTer FPGA Forum

im glad to see such quick progress with this core, but if the dual SDRAM is needed, this will hinder several peoples setups who use SNAC, active cooling, VGA for other cores, dual SD cards, and the user buttons kind of puts the playstation into a standalone MiSTer setup at that point, or having to purchase a separate MiSTer specifically for the pla...

this is the one i have, but anything by mean well would be my recommendation

please note, you will need a 2 prong power cord as its sold separately

is it still giving you a black screen.. if so.. have you got an on/off switch on your power cable. try powering it without the switch adapter this was my first assumption as well, a faulty power supply i had a similar issue where if i cold booted (no power, then started the MiSTer by plugging in AC adapter) the MiSTer would boot fine but if i did ...

aww, sorry to hear about that man

i would at least, as a last ditch effort, attempt to re-connect everything on the MiSTer, make sure everything is connected well/securely,
and try a different power supply

(selling it will be quite quick)

i would also like to see CPS3 on the MiSTer

yes, that makes sense, and is what i had discovered as well. some HDTVs respond quicker to resolution/refresh changes, and others take a couple seconds to change which lead me to ask if a custom core option could be implemented, where we could set a certain amount of seconds to wait to load the ROM, so that the resolution and 60.08hz signal can upd...

yes, that is a great real world example of how well FPGA gaming matches original hardware, regarding input lag. kind of drives home the point that FPGA gaming is as close as you can get to the real thing (and IMO, more versatile and subjectively better) heres a reddit post that compares shinobi running on original hardware and compares it to some c...

glad to see more rally fans. living in the states, rally racing and rally games are kind of rare (where they seem to be commonplace overseas). im a big fan of RBR with mods & dirt rally 2 :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KO-syKdRSV8 ----------- as far as retro-esque games, i would probably recommend the ones that are already popular shovel kn...

holy shit,
i was expecting this to be a long-term project. amazing progress !

you are on a MiSTer message board, so our opinions will be biased, but as someone who has personally used basically every single kind of emulator from ~2001 and up, various emulation handhelds, softmods for PSP/3DS, and retropie; once i got a MiSTer, it formed a new "standard" for hardware emulation which is 2nd only to original hardware....

hmm, thats kind of what i was thinking too. probably a display issue at this point oh well, it is just that first brief intro piece of the boot sequence, and it is a minor issue. the screen/core works fine past that point in low lag. i was hoping there could be a custom core setting to allow for an additional second or two after loading a ROM, wher...

im now wondering if a custom 1920x1080 modeline, with adjusted blanking and synchro times, would correct this?

Do you use a soundbar? I see audio delays (not with MISTER specifically) where if there is no audio (which there isnt on mister menu) the moment audio starts it kinda "wakes up" the soundbar. So you will miss a tiny bit. no, no soundbar with my setup. its hdmi in to the TV, and digital out to an amp/speakers sounds like a issue local to ...

i posted this on the issues page of github, but wanted to ask here as well ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i have noticed, for quite a while, the intro chime in both super mario world and link to the past sometimes doesnt play. or, the chime will play, but the intro image/screen is still blan...

F***yeah!
guwange was the first cave game i played back when MAME was first starting out, and they got the 1st gen cave titles to run.

the game blew me away with its bullet hell gameplay and weird bosses.
absolutely was not expecting it to be that good!

and yes, it would be amazing if someone like SRG320 would step up to finish the PSX core (or at least help move it along)

https://www.reddit.com/r/fpgagaming/com ... /psx_core/

TL;DR - laxer is still working on it, but at a very slow pace

was going to say the same as paco.
i would just use 2 separate adapters, as running 2 controllers of one board does add a tiny amount of input lag (~2ms as suggested by porkchopexpress)

2 separate adapters is also how i run my bartop with 2 arcade sticks

BOOOM
MiSTer community to the rescue!

my next questions is, can this fix be applied to other cores?
seems like some folks would appreciate this, if this tearing with vsync_adjust=0 is a widespread issue

i agree, SNAC is kind of bulky and unwieldy. something more streamlined and ready to plug in an OEM controller would be nice (like a blissbox). my current setup has a SNAC adapter directly attached to the IO board > USB3 extension cable > bracket/fixed spot on my case. and then each OEM controller is pre-connected to its accompanying SNAC adapter t...

interesting results here, paulbnl & jlancaster! these refresh/sync issues seem to be common to these samsung 4K TVs and the MiSTer. i can say, i was noticing very similar things to what lancaster is describing, but after switching to a computer monitor, those bottom screen "catching up" weird artifacts have gone away (with vsync_adjus...

i know theres a wall of text to read above, but i have basically the same TV as original poster, Q70r, and would notice odd tearing/artifacts/issues as well. this was remedied by switching to a dedicated computer monitor (Acer Nitro XF243Y Pbmiiprx) instead of a consumer HDTV. and yes, i play specifically SNES for extended periods of time (mostly s...

i would love to see this and 'captain america and the avengers' someday

yeah, this is entirely F'd up and sad.
i was also a fan, or at least knew about them, since the early 2000s and have been casually following their work ever since.

their contributions to the retro emulation scene will solidify their history as a legend, and i truly hope they are at peace now

to add to the confusion and point again to the SNAC firmware needing an update -

my same SNES controller that doesnt work via SNAC on the MiSTer, works just fine with a daemonbite adapter on the MiSTer.
so, yeaahh, not sure whats going on with the MiSTer and SNAC. some OEM controllers work and others dont.

i had a similar issue with a SNES controller. i still have my 2 original SNES controllers from my first SNES console, and only one of the controllers works with the MiSTer via SNAC. i tried everything you could think of, https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=2114, but ultimately just bought a SFC controller off ebay, and it works fine with the MiS...

if/when a CPS3 core gets released, i have a bartop cabinet i made some years ago that i would 100% turn into a dedicated CPS3 machine

this is what he posted in his discord when asked about CPS3 04mpt5b.png and then someone asked if there could be a DDR add-on board, and he replied with PqPwg03.png --------------------------------- so, jotego saying something like that, tells me hes put some thought into CPS3 recently, and its just not possible. " could there be a way he work...

i think nullobject and jotego have their hands full for a while, and darren specifically said hes not planning on working on anything past zero wing. (his zero wing core is more of a test/project in FPGA development). NKFnhdl.png also, nullobject has a bunch of work left to complete the 1st gen cave titles, and jotego is working on system 16 and th...
