MiSTer FPGA Forum

can't speak for anyone else but from where I'm coming from: 1- not attacking any devs. grateful for any and all efforts. Even ones that don't pan out into deliverables. 2- not questioning anyone's skills. particularly not atrac17's.. and I don't mean to make this an atrac17 vs Jotego type discussion either. Don't see the point and have no idea the ...

I have ultimate mister case, and standard (analog) io so I would have to do away with analog io, and order a 32mb card to go with my 128mb if I want MK core when that comes out ostensibly in October. I really want MK core but I dunno if its worth the fuss, I think id have to: find a new case hope there's an s-video direct video dongle since my CRT ...

I have been spoiled by my retrotink5x on original hw this year

sometimes 25-50% can be ok but not great its pretty generic scanline looking imo

edit - im an idiot I see the ones for PVM, trinitron, faded, JVC, etc.

any you'd recommend in particular you really like ?

Ran update_all for the first time in a while, think it was on v1 or whatever and did a v2 and see duplicates in the list for these: Colecovision Gameboy GBA PSX ran update_all again for good measure, didnt seem to fix it but is there any other kinda clean up I should do? its been a while since I've fussed with it, can I do this from SFTP/Cyberduck ...

In the ini set vscale_mode=0. In the core menu pick aspect ratio=full, and make sure scale option is normal if available (no v-integer etc.) worked perfect, thank you very much! saw some rumblings of vsync_mode = 0 on previous pages in this thread, but was already defaulted to that I had vscale_mode = 1 for some reason (integer scaled) but cant re...

dumb question but theres no way to get games to fill the full 9.7" retina iPad screen is there without the full frame black border and just a square in the center? if you select full its sorta like a 16:9 stretch issue a bit but almost anamorphic or whatever its called some cores let you make the horizontal narrower with smaller left and right...

Im using Antonio villena's s-video with analog io board to a 14" CRT the colors are washed out / inaccurate / lots of flickering on this core... anyone else? Tried switching the physical switch from auto to ovr on io, still doesnt fix it. Looks fine over HDMI to my flat screen. Yup, I too am having the same issue with that adapter. Me three. ...

im a moron lol... thanks just surprised my script didn't do its thing that is supposed to cover that No, just too exited to try a new core like many of us are. Not being near my MISTer I had time to RTFM. Are you the author of the BIOS getter script? In the affirmative shame on you, you may have killed some baby seals. by 'my' script, I meant the ...

What s-video io board is this (and plastic case) @ 10 seconds?

Both look kinda perfect

Does this core require a bios? Put some stuff with .lnx file extension in games folder, shows it loads it up with progress bar but then a black screen What gives? using 1080p integer scaled on my TV, tried rebooting MiSTER and the core. https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?p=21031#p21031 im a moron lol... thanks just surprised my script didn't do ...

Im really struggling with this one. Anyone else have experiences trying to wirelessly pair the new xbox controller with MiSTer?

It must be a popular controller..

Hadn’t for several months but just did and still same thing

Good thought tho

Seems to sync with my Xbox one s and iOS device fine in pairing mode.

Anyone else? What gives?

Pairing mode can find my ds4 controller fine as well.

Got my snes switch bluetooth controller

looks feels and works great ! love the little inside-shoulder top buttons for menu and menu-ok as well

thanks for the recommendations

When I was using the Nintendo Switch SNES controllers, if it didn't connect, I would tap the pair button to turn the controller off and try again, usually after a few tries it would work, but occasionally I would get fed up and just fully re-pair it again. One fix for the connection issues is to use the 8bitdo usb dongle with it, which should be a...

I'm pretty sure there were other options in the "Shipping destination" box before, I don't think that is where it is shipping from. There are separate kits for snes classic and original snes controllers, I used snes classic controllers. You can see all the different kits here: https://shop.8bitdo.com/ thanks looks like its for sale on eb...

Hmm.. that's strange, they were shipping to USA and Canada when I ordered my ps1 classic kits in August. Unfortunately I think their website is the only place you can get the diy kits. Unless “shipping destination” means where it’s shipping from And to clarify you use this with a snes mini controller right? Not an original SNES system controller? ...

It works with standard bluetooth adapters. It uses a 3.5mm barrel to usb a cable to charge, I don't think it is proprietary, I have seen other electronics with similar cables, but haven't tried using a cable other than what it came with. The nub where the charging cable attaches also glows to show you when the controller is on/charging/pairing. Th...

I use a snes classic controller with the 8bitdo diy bluetooth board . It still has the official feel and doesn't have the connection issues the switch ones do. I do miss having the extra 2 buttons the switch controller has so one can be used as a dedicated menu button though. This is awesome ! Does it work with the standard BT4.0 adapters or does ...

I have a retrobit 2.4ghz saturn controller, 8bitdo m30 which is like a genesis 6-button wireless clone which I love and is second lowest wireless latency

Are you talking about m30 2.4g or about m30 bluethoot?

2.4ghz

Yeah, the pair button is on the IO board. Without that, you'd just need to enter the pairing menu from the main menu. But that now means you need to hassle with a second controller. I've been hoping this would get a fix during some random Linux update, but it doesn't seem like that's the case. I know f11 pulls up pairing but how do you get to it f...

The official Nintendo Switch SNES online controller is pretty great. Only problem is that MiSTer sometimes loses pairing when powered off. Not a huge deal, as all I have to do to reconnect is hold down the pair button on the MiSTer and controller when I power on, and then it's good to go. what do you do if you just have de10 nano and no... io boar...

with a top plate on top of my fan plate PCB + fan, what's the easiest way to ensure the fan doesn't move when I blow onto the board below it? try to wedge my finger in there and hold it in place? a little tape? Dont want to routinely disconnect the power from the board, to add more wear + tear. Just finger it. That's my mantra. Besides, how often ...

what's that mean? sorry haha

can send voltage back, even with the MiSTer off? Yes. Certain types of electric motor and electric generator are essentially the same structure, just optimized for different purposes. Apply voltage to the terminals and it produces rotation on the rotor; apply rotation to the rotor and it produces voltage on the terminals. thanks good to know about...
