Known issues: Prince of Persia crashes after level one. Seems to be a bug with the crack used in the game. I have the same issue with my CD copy of PoP ( without crack ) it doesn't happen when using internal pc speaker mode Yeah there is a github issue that details the options and workaround now. h...

Lol, I could never beat the boss car on the first level to test that. How do you beat it?

Further testing, ive gotten better performance in Duke3d using these settings. (Modify Duke3d.cfg) ;) Im guessing it would perform the same with Vesa on instead of Chained, going to test Shadow Warrior tmmrw. (But for me Chained on is the way) [Setup] ;Setup File for Duke Nukem 3D SetupVersion = "1...

That's the DPMI/DOS4GW bug issue. Use Dos32a instead with those games and it should work.

If you make sure you do not have any ao486 folders on the SD card (remove /media/fat/ao486/ or /media/fat/games/ao486/, and then have your /media/usb0/games/ao486/ folder with the bios files, vhds, cd, and floppy folder there, then cold boot the mister, you should see the folder just fine. If when y...

What happens if you turn off the vga_scaler?
vga_scaler = 0

Imgtry is a batchscript that we setup to test the imgset command successfully mounted a cd and runs a diskcheck to see if it mounted. you should use imgset unless you want to duplicate what we did. i ran the last version of exo converter and it throwed them as imgset that's why i was asking about c...

I'm building my own VHD but i might use some of the games in this pack is there any way to see the src of the patches so i can apply them manually? yes, every script update is on github: https://github.com/flynnsbit/Top300_updates/tree/main/games Eventually you would be able to run this script agai...

Thank you so much for the pack, the dedication to old dos gaming is 100%! Ive run into a problem I cant figure out how to solve, prior to the update Duke Nukem 3d and Shadow Warrior worked at the proper resolution (I use 640x480 output with vga on the mister IO) to my old crt. With the latest scrip...

Hmmm....scripts seems to look at media/fat/games, but I have them on media/usb0/games i can't seem to find any mnetion of the games directory in the 0.76 update script. Can anyone tell me where to put the path in the SH file? For now, pull this script down and edit the top for /usb0. I'll fix it to...

Sorry, I need to make a new video on the process. Here is the ExoDOSConverter program. https://github.com/Voljega/ExoDOSConverter

This is Freddo's original Powershell script which really shouldn't be used unless you are just trying to learn. The ExoDOSConverter tool with the MiSTer option has matured well beyond this script.

@Yim Keep going! You are at least starting something, even if it is a conversation, with a nice Proof of concept, you are learning, and working to understand the MiSTer framework and cores. This is how new and exciting things get added.

@flynnsbit, is there anyway i can debug dark forces to see why it's not allowing sound? sound works on the setup tool; i'm using pro irq 7 dma1; If you get sound working the way you want with setup, then you need to overwrite the sound config in either the SB16, MT32, or SC55 directory in the game ...

Looks like there is something up with the auto detection script that is trying to decide if you have CHD or IMG. You can just manually roll back to one of the other releases and extract update.zip/c update.zip/E to the VHDs by mounting them in Windows. I'll check it see if I have the same issue. htt...

Sorry, I've been making a lot of changes to try and stabilize the CFIS mounting some people do. Try again now, need to wget the original update script again.

Ok managed to update to 0.7.5, the new script didnt work, it just says press key, press key and then goes back to the main menu. I got the update folder and copied the files into the dos vhd. Now it loads ok, and the list is there, but im getting the chd error, so what do i need to do now? Do i hav...

So there would be no need for aspect ratio settings if one wanted perfect pixel mapping? Also, this will theoretically work for games that change resolutions during game play? I think I remember Vay for Mega-CD changes resolution for battles. Depends what you mean by perfect pixel mapping. If you m...

Well looks like I'm converting ISO to CHDS after work. Great job! Yup, let us know if you have any problems. It should auto detect whether you have CHDs or BIN/CUE/ISO and mount accordingly so all you need to do is to make sure you are on v0.7.5 of the pack and convert your cds with the exact same ...

You probably are using something other than vscale_mode=0

New update script is out there that should take care of all of these issues. Make sure you wget the latest update script from github and then run it.

Yup, I made a small change that does the unzip first and then copies to the vhds which seems to have speed things up considerably. Glad it worked for you.

New new version of the update script out there. make sure you wget the latest and then run it. Also, cold boot your mister before you do all of this.

Okay, new update script that extracts first and then uses Rsync to update both the VHDs. See if that fixes your problem. You need to wget the new update.sh to your mister obviously before running it. https://github.com/flynnsbit/Top300_updates/tree/main/_mister Thanks. I have just tried the new scr...
